LOCAL HIGH SCHOOL STUDENT ATTENDS ENGINEERING STATE AT UTAH STATE UNIVERSITY Dalan Bennett from Panguitch High School was among the 222 students excelling in math and science who attended Utah State University’s 21st Annual Engineering State program in Logan, UT, June 11 – 14, 2012. The intensive four day program introduces high school students throughout the region to the engineering profession and is sponsored by USU engineering alumni, school district foundations, engineering firms, and businesses. Students participate in a variety of Challenge Sessions taught during the week. Among the 18 hands-on, competitive exercises called Challenge Sessions, students write an iPad App, competitively locate software bugs, apply algorithms and cryptography to win a scavenger hunt; engineer algae to produce bioproducts and biofuels, and isolate spider silk-making genes to produce huge quantities of spider silk and learn about synthetic spider silk research. They also learned how to manipulate DNA to change the smells of fruits, put together a small steel bridge and test its structural soundness, build personal speakers, design a computer out of only a ping pong ball and a telephone, design their own aircraft out of balsa wood, and scale 90+ foot walls. Engineering professors at USU donate their time to introduce students to their profession and challenge them in exercises which use math and science to solve physical problems. The Engineering State program at USU has been instrumental in attracting top students to engineering departments at universities across the state. Since many students receive little exposure to engineering in the high school setting, attendees to Engineering State receive a hands-on introduction to engineering. Besides an outstanding orientation program for engineering, attendees experience the university environment and receive information about the financial resources available for students who seek higher education. For more information about the Engineering State program, contact Kathy Phippen, Program Coordinator, at (435) 797-2843. APRICOT HARVEST

The Apricot harvest is beginning at Capitol Reef National Park’s historic orchards. Apricots are available for $1.00 a pound, beginning Wednesday, June 27, in the Mulford, Gifford and Johnson Orchards, all located south of the visitor center along the Scenic Drive. Fee stations with scales for weighing fruit are provided in each open orchard. There is no charge for fruit consumed in the orchards. Fenced orchards are open from 9am to 5pm; unfenced orchards remain open during daylight hours. Apricots will be available

for harvest in the Smith, Cook, Adams and Mott Orchards, beginning Tuesday, July 3. These orchards are all located within one mile of the visitor center along the Scenic Drive or Highway 24. Additional fruit harvest information is recorded on the Capitol Reef Fruit Hotline as fruit ripens and specific harvest start dates are determined. The fruit hotline may be reached by calling (435) 425-3791. Once the park number connects, press one for general information and, at the voice prompt for the orchard hot-

line, press five. Climbing fruit trees is not permitted in the Park. The National Park Service provides special fruit picking ladders. Use care when picking fruit and carefully read and follow posted instructions on fruit picking and ladder use. Capitol Reef National Park uses the receipts from fruit sales to defray the cost of maintaining the orchards. The historic Fruita orchards are among the largest in the National Park System and were established beginning in the 1880s by pioneer residents of Fruita.

HIGH FIRE DANGER PROMPTS STATEWIDE FIRE RESTRICTIONS Current and forecasted weather conditions coupled with extremely dry conditions and heavy loading of vegetation throughout the State of Utah have created hazardous fire conditions. As a result, all state and federal lands, and all unincorporated private lands, will be under fire restrictions beginning 12:01 a.m. on June 14th, 2012. The restrictions will be in place until the fire hazard subsides.

Garfield School District Board Goals A few months ago, the District held the “What Counts” meeting to ask the public for suggestions on what they would like to see in the educational process. From the meeting, the Board compiled six strategic goals that are as follows: * Parent and Community Involvement * Individual Student Needs and Interests * Quality Teachers * Academic Excellence * Positive Learning Environment * Fiscal Responsibility and Transparency As we move forward, the goals identified by the Board will help the District make decisions that will ensure academic excellence for our students. Steps are in place to align with these goals such as improved parent involvement with community councils. A 10-period block schedule will improve the individual student needs and interests. In an effort to acquire quality teachers and staff we will utilize hiring committees made up of community members, teachers, administrators, and parents. Faculty and staff members will have ongoing evaluations with a detailed professional development plan. To show transparency with fiscal responsibilities, we have made a detailed report of the FY 13 Budget available to the public on the District web page. This budget includes more information than has been seen in many years in the District. The new budget shows line-by-line explanations of where the money comes from and where it is expended. We will continue to strive to improve in all of these goals to achieve the academic excellence that students in the Garfield School District deserve. --Superintendent Ben Dalton

DR. MOONEY RUNNING FOR SCHOOL BOARD My name is Dr. Todd Mooney and I am running for the Panguitch local school board district 2. I have been blessed to live and work here for the last 12 years and consider this a special opportunity to give back to this great community. I am a strong proponent of public education. My mother and 3 of my 4 sisters have all been life long elementary teachers. I have seven children. Two graduates from Panguitch High and five more that are spread throughout all three Panguitch schools. I care deeply about the direction in which our children’s education may be heading and would appreciate your vote.

FRIENDS OF MAMMOTH CREEK FISH HATCHERY MEETS JUNE 28 “Friends of the Mammoth Creek Fish Hatchery” are continuing to protest the ceasing of fishing stocking operations at our local hatchery and ask local citizens to join us in voicing their opinions at a June 28 Open House at the Panguitch Social Hall, 6-8 p.m.. Recent plans are to convert Mammoth Creek Fish Hatchery to a shortterm brood station with its long-term future “undeter-

mined” and bleak. Friends of the Mammoth Creek Fish Hatchery believe that closing MCFH stocking operations and sending our stocking operations 100-300 miles away to hatcheries with unprotected waters will adversely affect anglers, tourism, and residents in Southern Utah. Mammoth Creek Fish Hatchery stocks local Southern Utah waters and has efficiently done so since

1923. We launched a petition in March 2012 and have a website with information that citizens can read - it is listed on the attached flyer. The petition was closed at the end of March but the information is still pertinent and available at friendsofmammothcreekfishhatchery.com. It is absolutely critical that we have citizens attend the June 28 Open House in Panguitch, 6-8 p.m.

THANK YOU WAYNE COUNTY RESIDENTS On the afternoon of June 4, a call went out for help in response to the worst wildfire to affect Wayne County in recent times. Starting with the closest volunteer firefighters and culminating in a response by firefighters from all over the Western United States. The Lost Lake Fire was stopped, but not before it burned more than 2,000 acres. The response to help was met with an outpouring of support from local communities. The kind words and fellowship were greatly appreciated. On behalf Great Basin Incident Management Team 5 and many other incident personnel on the Lost lake Fire, I would like to express a sincere thank you to all Wayne County residents whom contributed time, good wishes and/or personal services during the recent fire. Your support and cooperation made the firefighter’s jobs much easier. The waves, personal greetings, warm thank you’s and your hospitality were appreciated by each and every firefighter under my command. Your support added to our success. On behalf of all the members of the Incident Management team, as well as all firefighters involved in the fire suppression effort, our sincere “Thank You”.

IMPROVING FINANCIAL LITERACY, HERE AND ABROAD By Jason Alderman

Would you be surprised to learn that parents in many poorer countries often spend considerably more time talking with their children about money management than in wealthier countries like the United States? I was. That’s just one interesting nugget revealed at the sixth annual Financial Literacy and Education Summit recently hosted by the Federal Reserve Bank of Chicago and Visa Inc. Renowned U.S. and international financial experts tackled the theme, “International Solutions to Improving Financial Literacy,” sharing successes and challenges faced in their own countries, as well as presenting new research that explores ways that financial knowledge and behavior can be improved. Janet Bodner, editor of Kiplinger’s Personal Finance, shared findings from the 2012 Global Financial Barometer, a new study cosponsored by Kip-

linger’s and Visa. Some global 25,500 participants were asked about their personal financial habits and opinions. Assessing that data, the Barometer ranked the financial literacy levels of people in 28 countries. Among the more interesting findings: Brazil topped the list as having the most financially literate people, followed by Mexico, Australia, the U.S. and Canada. 68% of survey respondents had fewer than three months’ worth of emergency reserves to fund basic needs during an unexpected financial event like job loss. 25% of high-income respondents had less than three months of living expenses in savings. In the U.S., for example, the average person had only 2.9 months of expenses saved. Mexico and Brazil topped the list of places that parents talk to their kids ages 5 to 17 about money most often, with Mexicans talking to their kids at least 41.7

days a year and Brazilians 38.1. American families were in the middle of the pack at about 25.8 days out of the year. When asked at what age governments should require schools to teach financial literacy, U.S. respondents ranked near the bottom at 11.9 years. By comparison, more than half of Brazilians surveyed believe such education should begin before age 9. In over half the countries, a majority believe that teens and young adults do not understand financial basics, such as budgeting, savings, debt and spending responsibly. Bodner noted that these results add to our body of knowledge about financial literacy. “You first have to identify what the problems are in your particular country, city or school, and then determine what is effective in handling those situations,” she said. A more detailed summary of the Barometer’s key find-

HOLOGRAPHIC WILLS

A holographic will is a will that is written entirely in your own handwriting. No witnesses are required, and no portion of the will may be typed. If you type some or all of the words, or you incorporate other markings or other documents into the text, you could inadvertently invalidate the will. The idea behind holographic wills is that since the entire document is in a person’s handwriting, there is no need for witnesses to sign it to establish its validity. Holographic wills don’t need to be notarized either, but they do need to be signed. Most lawyers would tell you it’s a bad idea to write your own will because you can easily create ambiguities and other defects that can lead to litigation following your death. This is especially true in second marriage situations when one or both spouses have children from prior marriages or relationships. If you decide to write your own will, you should be sure to say in the introductory sentence that it is your will, and that you are revoking all prior wills. If you don’t revoke all prior wills, your handwritten will and any other wills that

have not been revoked will be looked at together to determine who inherits your estate. As you may expect, problems arise when the various documents conflict. Be sure to identify each bequest clearly and to give away all of your property. A frequent problem with handwritten wills is that they list some accounts and properties, but then leave out others. Property that you don’t mention in your will passes to your heirs as determined by the courts. Your heirs may not be the same persons named in your will, and may not be the ones you would have chosen to receive the assets. Also, going to court and figuring out who your heirs are can be an expensive and time-consuming matter. In addition, courts will require two witnesses who are familiar with your handwriting to testify that the will was, in fact, written by you. It’s often the case that handwritten wills don’t name a personal representative. Failure to name a personal representative could result in an administration of your estate that is fully court-supervised, expen-

sive, and lengthy. Another important provision that is often left out of a holographic will is a waiver of bond. When you don’t request a waiver, the judge can require that your personal representative post a bond. Sometimes, it’s not possible to even get a bond, and if your personal representative can get one, it is generally expensive. There are a number of other provisions that should be included in wills that the average person would almost certainly leave out of a holographic will. Handwritten wills are valid if they are properly drafted. However, they are almost always more difficult to probate than typed wills. Jeffery J.

ings can be found at www. practicalmoneyskills.com/ barometer. William Walstad, an Economics professor at University of NebraskaLincoln, presented another interesting study which showed that people who scored poorly on a financial literacy test but were confident in their money-management abilities exhibited similar abilities to manage credit cards as did those with stronger test skills; while those who had high test scores but lacked confidence displayed much more negative credit behavior. Walstad said these findings suggest that building confidence has a strong role to play in financial education. Bottom line: The panelists agreed that all of the countries represented share many of the same challenges for boosting financial literacy including gaining wide access for programs to be tested, evaluating their results, and the fact that each has very diverse populations with different needs at different periods in their lives.

A woman in our office was promoted to supervisor and some of the older male workers were having difficulty accepting her authority. While she instructed one such subordinate, he interrupted with, “Young lady, I’m old enough to be your father.” “And,” she replied, “I’m old enough to be your supervisor.”

you had better put on your seat belt, I know, last year I was only going two blocks when I got pulled over, fortunately he took pity on an old man. There will be plenty of venders, with everything from shoes to food. All day long there will be things going on, with plenty of music and a lot of local talent blending in. Caped off with the Glow, when the whole world shows up and our population quadruples and with a lot of great music, join in the fun. Yes there is a lot going on in town. At our ball field there will be a 16 team high school tournament held on Friday and Saturday. This brings as many as 300 people into town for this tournament; I hope they take in the sights that our area has to offer. Come on out and take in next years competition, these are some great ballgames to watch. It appears that the outside of the Court House is finished; you can drive through the road in the rear of the building, so that might be a clue. Boy does it look good, the sod is in, as well as the landscaping, what a great addition to our town. I understand that the inside is really something also, can’t wait till its open for tours. Commissioner Leland Polock told me that it is all paid for, free and clear. Leland also says that the prison has also been paid off and the County is looking good. I found out who made the great fish weather vane on the peak of the original building, it was done by one of our own artisan, Bob Burton. Bob can do magic with metal, he also did the arch entryway at the Quilt Walk Park and designed the Quilt Walk banners. Bob has done the signage at the Old Fire Station and Social Hall, over 12 years ago and they look just as good today, as

they did then. Bring down your binoculars to check out the fish, it looks like it just came out of the Lake. Do I have a deal for you! Four free female Llamas, they are about 6 years old. Llamas make real good pack animals and I understand that they also keep the wild things away from your herds. You can also use their wool the same as you would sheep. Give me a call these won’t last long. (676-2418). Outdoor recreation created 2.3 million jobs in the western states, with about $110 billion in wages last year. Totally Nationally we spent $645 billion in outdoor recreation last year and the West’s share was about $250 Billion or 40% of the revenue. This compares with the $350 billion we spent at the gas pumps last year.

Next Tuesday is the Republican primary and they should be concerned, because this is really the election. Who ever wins the Republican primary is always a shoe in, for November.

I was working as a shortorder cook at two restaurants in the same neighborhood. On a Saturday night, I was finishing up the dinner shift at one restaurant and hurrying to report to work at the second place, but I was delayed because one table kept sending back an order of hash browns, insisting they were cold. I replaced them several times, but still the customers were dissatisfied. When I was able to leave, I raced out the door and arrived at my second job. A server immediately handed me my first order. “Make sure these hash browns are hot,” she said, “because these people just left a restaurant down the street that kept serving them cold ones.”

One day, a man was driving with his fouryear-old daughter and beeped his car horn by mistake. She turned and looked at him for an explanation. He said, “I did that by accident.” She replied, “I know that, daddy.” He replied, “How’d you know?” The girl said, “Because you didn’t say ‘JERK’ afterwards!”

OBITUARIES Glen Hale

Panguitch -- Glen B. Hale, 80, loving husband of Veda Tebbs Hale, died peacefully Tuesday June 12, 2012 in their gallery-home on Main Street in Panguitch, Utah. It was a peaceful passing with his partner of 55 years by his side. Glen was born June 2, 1932 in Groveland, Idaho to Joseph and Marie Bailey Hale. Glen had a happy and eventful life and was an active member of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints all his life. Shortly after marriage in 1957, he and Veda went on the first of many adventures as they spent three years in Japan working for a private company providing milk to the military. Their next adventure was in selling mutual funds and life insurance in California and Murray, Utah. About 1980 their adventure was Glen’s dream. He had an opportunity to be a cowboy in Kamas, Utah, which he enjoyed until 1990. While managing a storage facility in St. George for the next 10 years, he and Veda built their dream cabin on the Tebbs family ranch near White Bridge Campground on the way to Panguitch Lake. Many good times were had there with family and friends. Veda and Glen had the experience of traveling in their fifth-wheel trailer and it was then when Glen encouraged Veda to paint in earnest. She did and when they came back to Panguitch and realized the scenery around Southern Utah was the prettiest in the country, Glen bought a building on main street and opened the Hale Art Gallery. Glen had a wonderful way with people and spent his last days making friends with people from all over the world. He will be missed by all who knew him. He is survived by wife, Veda of Panguitch; sons: Glen Tebbs (Sarah) Hale, Kauai, Hawaii; Brent Jonathan (Kris) Hale, Lindon; and Jason Daniel (Erin) Hale, Taipei, Taiwan; 16 grandchildren; brothers and sisters: Ralph, Boyd, Bessie, Karen and Diane. Preceded in death by his parents; grandson, Jonathan Dalton Hale. Memorial services will be held Saturday, June 16, 2012 at 11:00 a.m. in the Panguitch Lake Chapel. Friends may call from 10:00 - 10:40 a.m. Burial will be in the Panguitch Cemetery. Funeral Directors: Magleby Mortuary, Richfield, Salina and Manti. Online guestbook at www.maglebymortuary.com

She has been delighted with the family that has come to help out around the yard and house. It has been a big help and she has enjoyed the visits. Anne Marie Barton left this week to enter the MTC as she prepares to go to Florida Tampa Mission, Spanish Speaking. She is the daughter of Scott and Marie Barton of Tropic. Last Thursday Ernie and Wynona Henderson had a very busy week. They went to Orem and had lunch with Ernie’s uncle Dave Baxter and his son Shawn and their daughter Dorsie and husband Kevin Denny. Friday they were at the VA Hospital for Ernie’s appointments. Saturday they went to the wedding and reception of a friend, Dolly Willis and Mike Derbidge. Also attending was their son Dallas, daughter Lynne, and daughter Dorsie and Kevin Denny. Their daughter Dorsie was able to see a friend, Valerie Wells Thomas, that she has not seen in forty years at the reception. They had a nice visit at Valerie’s house. On Saturday the Henderson’s stopped in Ephraim and visited with Shane and Candace Davis. Shane is their grandson. It was a busy week and they enjoyed the visits but it is always a good feeling to come home to your own house. Friday and Saturday this week will be the Stake Father’s and Son’s outing by Posey Lake.

ESCALANTE NEWS Marlene Haws Ph: 826-4859 • marleneh@color-country.net A belated “HAPPY BIRTHDAY” To Thelma Marsh, who turned 91 on June 13, 2012. Her daughter and son-in-law, Kathleen and Warren Woolsey, came from Cedar City to spend the day with her. Her son and daughter-in-law, Sharon Dale and Eve Marsh, live next door so they were there to spend some time with her also. “Happy Birthday” to Velma Boulter who had a birthday on June 11th. She turned 94. I’m sure they must have done something special for her at the care center in Panguitch. Carrie Griffin and Martha Schow visited with her around that time. Renon Peterson, Boulder, celebrated her 90th birthday on June 9, 2012. Her daughter, Janice Reid and family came from Cedar City to spend the day with her. They spent a big part of one day in Escalante taking pictures of all the places Renon had fond memories of while she was growing up here in Escalante. She received a lot of calls from friends and family and had a very enjoyable birthday. “Happy 90th, Renon!” Faye Jepsen, had been home for a day or two but had to go back to Tooele with her son, Wyatt, where she will be closer to her doctor for a while. Our Postmaster, Ryan Crosier, and his wife, Katie, just got back from vacationing at Bear Lake. They hadn’t been home only a day or two before Ryan went to the hospital with chest pains. He is back home but will have to go to a specialist for testing. Little Dillon Woolsey, son of Jared and Tara, fell

off the couch and broke his collar bone. His grandma, Sherri Woolsey, showed me a picture of him on her cell phone and he looked SO sad! Poor little guy. But he’s got a lot of spirit so he will be okay! Tillie Nixon hasn’t been feeling too well. Mac Edmiston has been in the hospital with pneumonia. Danny Spencer has spent some more time in the hospital in St. George. He is home again now. Delane Griffin has recently had a pace maker operation and is doing fine and I hope by the time you read this everyone else will be on the mend. Derlynne Brooks just returned from St. George where she has been visiting with her daughter, Whitney. Eight Escalante Senior Citizens went on a bus trip last week. They said they had a great time. They visited the cheese factory in Beaver and they visited the Territorial State House State Park in Fillmore. In the early days of Utah Fillmore was designated to be the State Capitol until it was decided that it would be in Salt Lake City instead. If you haven’t visited there already you should make it a point to do so sometime. It is very interesting. They ate at the Chinese restaurant in Fillmore and said they thought they were right in China. It was very authentic because as soon as they were seated two bus loads of people came in and they were all Chinese! They also visited the Fremont Indian State Park Museum. Included in the group who made the trip were: Julie Ford, who was the bus driver, Lane and Geraldine Liston,

Margean Schow, Peggy Soren, Golda Cottam, Rolain Alvey and Sheila Mickey. Five ladies made a trip to St. George last Tuesday, 12th. Debbie Allen was their chauffeur and the other four were: Ardis Christensen, Almeda Haycock, Sandra Miller and Renee Porter. The first part of their day was spent at the temple, then they had lunch and shopped before coming back home. Gene and Thais Griffin had most of their family, and a lot of family friends, here for the wedding of their Grandson and his new bride, Cody and Felisha Steed Griffin, last week. It is probably a safe bet to assume that there were lots of relatives here on the Steed side too. Vergean and Carolyn Porter had two of their grandchildren here from Parowan. Cassie Bull and her brother, Nate. Cassie has been teaching school in Tucson, Arizona and it was a welcome break for them to be able to come over here and do some hiking, etc. Martha Schow had a visit from her friend, Helen Pittman, from Salt Lake. They lived across the street from each other for 15 years when the Schow’s lived up there. Helen brought a bunch of her family members with her: Kyle Rima and children, Tanner, Dallin and Lilia, Salt Lake; Nate and Cindy Allen and children, Zack, Drayden and Benjamin, Kingman, Arizona; Kim and Karen Richardson and family, Kyleigh, Kambrie and Kaleb, Lancaster, So. Carolina; Harold and Vickie Hessler, Salt Lake City. Helen stayed with Martha and the others camped at The Broken

Bow Campgrounds. They went to Calf Creek to hike and eat dinner on Thursday, but by the time they hiked it was too hot so they came back to Martha’s to fix their tinfoil dinners in her yard. Marian and Peggy Spencer and most of their family recently spent their vacation in California. They went to Disneyland, Knott’s Berry Farm, etc. But the most fun they had was at Newport Beach playing in the water and sand. The day I saw Peggy at the clinic it looked like she was still paying the price for a bad sunburn! The only part of her that was white was where her sun glasses had fit! But apparently she thought it had been worth it. She said they had a great trip with not one dispute or outrage on anybody’s part. So that was not only great but unusual! Good job Spencers! Sandra Porter has had her granddaughter here from Riverton for three weeks. A cute little gal whose name is Kasherri Hales, daughter of Jay and Laura Hales. Her parents will come to get her and leave a brother to spend a few days in her place. Word has just been received by Gene and Thais Griffin that their son, Mark, has been in a bad accident in St. George. He suffered a broken neck, had a heart attack and has been flown to Las Vegas for surgery on his neck. Gene and Thais and Brent Griffin have all gone down to Vegas to be with him. He will certainly be in our thoughts and prayers.
