Summer Sun Goes Into Its Winter Home at Parowan Gap
Garfield County 4-H Teen Leadership Training participants and chaperones.
Cassie Lyman
“Get Your Greek On” 4-H Teens Train in Leadership Skills LOGAN - 4-H Teen Leadership Training (TLT) was held in Logan over UEA weekend, with fourteen youth attending the training from Garfield County. The theme for this year’s training was “Get Your Greek On.” Activities included “get to know you” games, a toga parade, a variety of workshops, a dance, tee-shirt spray painting, hot chocolate under the stars, and each youth making a commitment to building 4-H within their communities. Workshops focused on strengthening teens to become better leaders today. Some of the most popular workshops were: anti- bullying and the power of one positive text, 20 seconds of courage, finding
our true colors, pursuing your dreams, healthy living, hands of a champion, body language, 4-H opportunities, and the take it home workshop. The best part of the entire trip was finding out more about ourselves and making new friends. As mentioned, each youth made a commitment to better the 4-H program within their community. Some of the 4-H commitments of the Garfield County youth were to start an impromptu public speaking 4-H club in Bryce Valley, start a summer 4-H basketball camp for 3rd-5th graders in Escalante, start a 4-H anti-bullying campaign in our schools, teaching a “20 seconds of courage” workshop to youth in our county, start a 4-H Perry
Jackson book club in Panguitch, organize a 4-H goat showing club for our county, start a 4-H dance club to teach youth a variety of dances, start a 4-H archery club (teaching bow parts, shooting safety, and start up a shooting contest), start a World of Work Club in Escalante (for teens to learn and prepare for job interviews), and participate in local 4-H events. We are excited about the energy these youth have and their interest in becoming 4-H leaders. If you are interested in helping our youth pursue their leadership commitments or for more information about, 4-H, please contact Cassie Lyman 435-826-4088. —Cassie Lyman
Dixie National Forest to Implement Prescribed Fire on Cedar City Ranger District CEDAR CITY, Utah – Next week, if the right weather conditions exist, the Cedar City Ranger District will implement Henrie Knolls, Duck Creek Hazardous Fuels Reduction, and Edward Spring prescribed fire projects (prescribed fire = man The areas to be burned are located 5 miles north of Duck Creek Village (Henrie Knolls), greater Duck Creek, Strawberry, and Swains Creek areas (Duck Creek Hazardous Fuels Reduction), and 9 miles

PAROWAN – At sunrise, the public can watch the Summer Sun go into its winter home this Saturday, Nov. 3rd, at the Parowan Gap, located 12 miles northwest of Parowan and 19 miles north of Enoch. While standing inside the Gap looking east, there is a rock outcropping on the south side which looks like a facial profile featuring a slight open mouth. This profile is respectfully known as the Overseer or Protector of American Indians. Shortly after sunrise, as the sun crosses the morning sky, it appears in the mouth of the Overseer. “The sun sits in the mouth, and sits, and sits, and then gulp as the Overseer swallows the sun, thus signifying that the Summer Sun has gone into its Winter Home, telling the people if they have
not prepared for winter, they had better be moving south quickly, as Winter will soon be here,” said Nancy Dalton, interpretive volunteer and member of the Parowan Heritage Foundation which co-sponsors a series of archeo-astronomy events at the Parowan Gap. “This one of a kind event occurs annually November 6-8,” said Dalton, adding that before or after those dates, the sun just passes through his mouth. “Because, we will be observing this event a few days early, we will be adjusting our location from the official observation spot to witness this awesome spinetingling event,” she explained. The informal interpretive program will start at 8:00 a.m., with the sun entering the mouth beginning about 8:23

Because of the primitive setting of the Gap, people are also reminded to use restroom facilities before coming out to the Gap. This is a new annual event added to the Parowan Gap Observation Series cosponsored by Parowan Heritage Foundation, Paiute Indian Tribe of Utah and Cedar CityBrian Head Tourism Bureau.

USFS Issues Christmas Tree Permit Info
SALT LAKE CITY – The holiday season is coming and thousands of people every year cut their Christmas tree from national forests. Cutting a Christmas tree in a national forest is a family tradition for many residents of Utah. Weather conditions in the mountains are unpredictable, so always be prepared for winter weather. Stay on designated roads and trails. Be prepared for slick, snow packed roads and have chains, a 4-wheel drive vehicle, or a snow machine available. Let someone know where you are planning to go and approximate time you will return. Carry a cell phone; bring additional warm clothing, good warm gloves, boots, and a container of hot liquid, water, lunch or snack, as it may take longer than expected. Carry a flashlight, chains, shovel, first aid kit, matches, a hatchet, ax or handsaw, and rope to secure your tree. Tree permits are for personal use only, cash and checks are the only accepted
method of payment. Trees must always be cut close to the ground leaving the stump no higher than 6 inches. A shovel will come in handy to dig through the snow to reach the base of the tree. Make sure your permit is attached to the tree before leaving the cutting area. TREE TOPPING IS NOT ALLOWED. No cutting within 200 feet of riparian areas (lakes and streams) roads, campgrounds, picnic areas, administrative sites, summer home areas, or within designated closed areas shown on tree cutting area maps.

Letters Letter to the editor: We still need Mike Noel representing us at the State and unfortunately, more now than ever. Some think if the locals quit fighting to protect our local interests, the Federal Government will quit trying to run over our private and public property rights. I disagree. Right now the Government owns or controls over 95% of Garfield and Kane Counties. Apparently that is not enough for them judging by who the BLM just approved to be part of the GSENM Advisory Committee. When I research on the Internet the stated beliefs of the new “expert”, who has become part of the Monument Advisory Committee, and approved by the Manager of the GSENM, his Biography states he wants to, “cordon off large tracts of private and public land from ALL human contact”, (caps mine). This “expert” also sits on the State BLM regional advisory committee and is trying to direct policy for the Monument and BLM here in Southern Utah, which
will directly impact those of us living here in Southern Utah. This isn’t something going on in the past, this just happened and is going on right now. That means there would be no camping, hunting, fishing, grazing, hiking, four wheeling, biking or anything on private or public lands if this guy gets his way. Both the State BLM office and the GSNEM Manager have approved him as part of their advisory committees. I personally have witnessed the county extension agent’s and both county’s commissioners and my own objections to these radical views be ignored by the BLM as I’m on the same committee. Mike Noel seems to be the only one in the race who recognizes these extreme views as the threat they are to our private and public property rights here locally and is willing to stand up to them and protect us from their radical views and efforts. We need Mike Noel now! Steve Westhoff Escalante Opinions expressed in letters to the editor are not necessarily those of The Insider. Letters may be submitted to snapshot@ live.com

Doing Your Part for a “Bully-Free” Utah
What Utah Needs Now by Peter S. Cooke Utah Democratic Gubernatorial Candidate
I am a retired two-star general, successful business owner, former Director of Economic Development for Utah, husband, father of five and Utah’s candidate for Governor on the Democratic ticket. Through four decades in the military and three decades pioneering public-private partnerships as an entrepreneur, I have dedicated my life to serving my country, state and community, and developing the leadership Utah needs now. Utah needs strong leadership, particularly in education, jobs, and health care. That’s why I am running for governor: Education. State leaders have systematically underfunded our schools since the early 1990s. We are last in per-pupil spending, we have declining high school graduation rates and plummeting math and reading scores. In the first 120 days of my administration I will present a plan to the people of Utah that moves us from 50th to 30th in per pupil funding over the next four years. Additionally, I will put in place 16 new initiatives outlined in my educational policy paper that will improve student achievement and restore pride in our teaching profession. Jobs. Instead of giving away $646 million in tax incentives to lure out of state businesses to Utah, I will channel incentives to our small business sector that accounts for 97 percent of Utah employers. My economic plan, Utah 1, will build Utah’s state’s economy through regional meetings with county officials, private-public partnerships and proper funding of programs like USTAR. Health Care. The Utah Exchange program is too expensive for the average Utahn to join, and the governor opposes expanding Medicaid coverage. As governor I will join with the Utah Medical Association and former Utah governors like Olene Walker in supporting Medicaid expansion, a policy that, for a 10-year investment of $250 million will return $3.6 billion to Utah.
The Unsure Thing of Death and Taxes According to Benjamin Franklin, death and taxes are life’s only certainties, but for farmers and ranchers, death taxes, also known as estate taxes, are far from a sure thing. Under current tax law, the tax goes back on Jan. 1, 2013 to a top rate of 55 percent and a $1 million exemption. With such a low exemption, as many as 18 percent of farms and ranches in Utah could owe estate taxes next year, according to the Agriculture Department. That means more than 3,000 farms in Utah could get hit with a 55 percent tax. How would impact your small business? For most farmers and ranchers, providing the country’s food, fiber and fuel is not just about making a living, it’s our way of life, a way of life we nurture like our plants and animals with the intention of passing it on to our children, grandchildren and well beyond. But for some farm families, federal estate taxes can mean their most recent harvest was their last. Estate taxes, owed to the
by Leland Hogan federal government by the farm owner’s surviving family members, can hit farm families harder than other small business owners because 86 percent of our assets are real estate-based. When Uncle Sam comes to pay his respects, surviving family members without enough cash on hand may be forced to sell land, buildings or equipment they need to keep their farms or ranches going. In these circumstances, farm families’ heartache is felt well beyond the borders of our farms, as the rural communities and the businesses we support also suffer when farms and ranches downsize or disappear. And farmland close to urban centers, such as the Wasatch Front, is often lost forever to development when estate taxes force farm families to sell off land to pay the taxes. A higher exemption and lower rates will give our farmers and ranchers a better chance to remain in business when transferring from one generation to the next. This is
why we are calling on Congress to provide an estate tax provision that would increase the exemption level to $5 million, and adjust it for inflation, and reduce the maximum rate to 35 percent. That may seem like a lot of money, but as high as the value of land and other farm assets are, it in some cases amounts to only the smallest relief. A vote for estate tax relief is not only a vote for my cattle ranch in Tooele, it’s also one for the Salt Lake City family sitting down for a roast beef dinner Sunday night. A lower rate and higher exemption will help ensure that future generations of growers can continue this tradition. Farm Bureau is working with congressional leaders to protect our farms, ranches and other small businesses from what could be huge tax increase on January 1. Leland Hogan is President of the Utah Farm Bureau Federation, and a cattle rancher in Tooele County.
SALT LAKE CITY - October is National Bullying Prevention Month, and Utah educators are being asked to take a pledge to stand up for bullied students. The National Education Association launched a campaign called “Bully Free: It Starts With Me” because, says Becky Pringle, NEA secretarytreasurer, some 160,000 students across the nation stay home from school each day because of bullying. “We need to focus on the child who is being bullied, we need to focus on the child who is doing the bullying, and we also need to focus on the bystanders. What we find is that, oftentimes, the bully wants an audience. If we take that away from them, it does lead to that bullying behavior not being as prevalent.” Utah has an anti-bullying policy for schools that lays out definitions, training and prevention. Last month, more than 12,000 Utah teens in Salt Lake and Park City schools saw the eye-opening documentary “Bully,” about five students who experienced bullying firsthand. Children have different coping skills, explains Pringle, and what may be considered teasing to one may be humiliating to another. The NEA program teaches educators and parents to recognize the warning signs of bullying, and to take immediate action to show children there is support for them. “We need them to feel powerful, that they can make a difference beyond those walls. They can change the culture of their school, and of their school district, and of their community, to surround their kids with the support they need.” Bullying is not just a harmless rite of passage or an inevitable part of growing up, adds Pringle. She calls it a systemic problem that can be destructive to communities and devastating to a child’s future. Pringle says the “BullyFree” program - online at nea. org/bullyfree - offers resources for parents and educators to help them identify bullying, as well as how to intervene and be an advocate for students. —Utah News Connection
Washington Needs to Lead. Now. by Lee H. Hamilton
A few weeks ago, I had a conversation with a group of prominent business leaders that I’m still mulling over. We were talking about the intersection between business and government, and they were pretty unhappy. The chief target of their displeasure wasn’t any of the usual suspects, though. Instead of lambasting taxes or regulations, they were most worried about uncertainty in Washington. Their business prospects, they argued, are being hurt by the inability of the political class — and in particular Congress and the White House — to come to terms on pretty much anything: from the year-end package of tax hikes and spending cuts known as the “fiscal cliff” to fixing the health care system to resolving our disagreements over immigration. Now, uncertainty is baked into our political system. As soon as a law passes, hundreds of lobbyists head for Capitol Hill to try to change it, and scores more descend on executive-branch agencies to see if they can nudge the rules implementing the law as they’re written. Legislation that seems buried for good in Congress can abruptly rise from the dead and pass both houses, while laws that passed easily a few years ago suddenly find themselves imperiled. “Nothing ever gets settled in this town,” George Shultz once told the House committee on which I sat when he was secretary of state. “It’s a seething debating society in which the debate never stops, in which people never give up.” Given the nature of our representative
democracy, certainty and finality are simply not achievable. Yet the businessmen I met with had an important and valid point. The range of really crucial issues on which Congress has been unable to find common ground is immense. It has yet to decide what to do about tax cuts that are about to lapse. It has a budget in place only until March and has not come to terms with the threat of deep cuts to spending that were part of the debt ceiling deal of 2011. It’s left issues like the future of estate taxes, a new agriculture bill, ensuring the security of our information infrastructure, and a rickety postal service on the table. And it hasn’t given a clue as to how it might want to address issues that are key to our economic competitiveness in coming decades: education, infrastructure, taxes, immigration and the like. As we near the end of the year, anyone trying to plan ahead has to confront the fact that government policy for both the near and long terms is wildly unforeseeable. And no one expects the upcoming election to clarify much of anything. This interminable gridlock in Washington produces a signal lack of leadership. Unable to formulate policy, let alone think strategically about the future, Congress punts. Which is terrible for the country. As The New York Times noted a few months ago, “A rising number of manufacturers are canceling new investments and putting off new hires because they fear paralysis in Washington will... undermine economic growth
in the coming months. Executives at companies making everything from electrical components and power systems to automotive parts say the fiscal stalemate is prompting them to pull back now, rather than wait for a possible resolution to the deadlock on Capitol Hill.” The problem is that politicians in Washington get so wrapped up in their own world that they seem unable to recognize the consequences of their inaction and last-minute antics. The bad habits they’ve developed in recent years — an inability to enact a budget or address taxes, the omnibus bills that concentrate power in the hands of just a few people, the lack of transparency and over-
abundance of partisanship — all have brought us to a point where people who depend on government to create a stable policy environment can no longer do so. Yes, uncertainty may be built into our representative democracy, but so is the assumption that our elected leaders will take responsibility for bringing solidity to the policies that affect our society and economy. Politicians of both parties simply must step up their game, or they’ll create chaos. Lee Hamilton is Director of the Center on Congress at Indiana University. He was a member of the U.S. House of Representatives for 34 years.
Michael Savage Candidate for
Garfield County School Board I hope that you will consider me as your candidate for Garfield County School Board in the upcoming election. I believe that
We have some of the best educators available We have parents that are sold on the value of education Both educators and parents are determined to help our children succeed Community members are committed to the success of our schools
I believe that these are the ingredients necessary to achieve the success our children deserve, the community desires, and the future demands. The significant problems we face cannot be solved at the same level of thinking we were at when we created them. ‐Albert Einstein I also believe that achieving the lasting success we desire will require that we begin to look at our problems from a different perspective. I believe the role of the school board is to establish a vision for education that both educators and parents can buy in to, establish bench marks to measure progress toward that vision, enable and empower educators to pursue goals that will make the vision a reality, and to present the achievements so compellingly as to eliminate all doubt of a successful outcome and thus enable sustained progress.
I am excited at the prospect of representing the citizens of Panguitch and playing a role in bringing about our educational goals.

Ask a Specialist:
How Can I Responsibly Take Advantage of Credit Card Rewards? LOGAN– A consumer recently reviewed his financial records and noticed something intriguing. During the month of July, he had $1,623 in short-term savings certificates that earned him a total of 76 cents for the month. Also for July, he used a credit card to pay for $1,592 of budgeted expenses from which he received $48.03 in cash-back rewards. He earned 63 times more on money he spent than on the money he saved. In this era of tough economic conditions, almost any positive statement about using credit cards is met with a chorus of negatives. Admittedly, there is ample evidence of consumers who face dire financial challenges resulting from credit card misuse. But, at the same time, most reports show that around 50 percent of card holders pay their balance in full each month. If a consumer has a solid history of successful credit card use, why not take advantage of the perks? A woman shares a credit card with her sister in order to maximize the dollar volume of purchases that convert to free airline travel for them. A man uses a card issued by a sporting goods store so all his purchases earn a reward that he can use for his favorite pastime. Some consumers carry two cards that each offer basic cash-back awards for all
purchases. Additionally, each quarter card users can sign up for rotating bonus rewards in certain purchasing categories such as drug stores, movies or gas stations. If you strategize, you can work it so the categories don’t always match. For example, from April through June, you can get an extra bonus buying groceries with one card, then switch to the other card to get similar bonus money for grocery purchases from July through September. One consumer uses two cards, one for the bulk of his purchases and the other as a backup or secondary card. He recently received an offer from the secondary card issuer promising a $500 cashback reward for making at least $2,000 in purchases each month for five months in a row. This reward was in addition to any other rewards he could earn using the card. So he switched from what was his primary card to his backup card for all his purchases and now figures to earn about 6 percent on the money he spends via credit cards in the upcoming months. Consider these guidelines on credit card rewards to maximize their benefits. • If you are not comfortable with credit cards, don’t start using them for the potential rewards. It is not worth the risk.
Vote Melaney Draper School Board Panguitch ‐District # 2 *I will continue to support the education of our kids
• Check the rewards program of the cards you currently use. One woman did not sign up for the bonus rewards her card offered and found she missed out on about $100 a year. • If you are choosing a card rewards program, match it to your interests. A card offering airline miles doesn’t provide much if the user doesn’t travel. • Use your rewards card for as much buying and bill paying as you can in order to maximize your reward. However, if there is a fee to use a credit card to pay the bill, don’t do it. The reward is not worth it. • Always be mindful of the temptation to use the card too much. In the very first paragraph talking about credit card use, it said, “budgeted expenses.” Never charge something if you wouldn’t pay cash for the item. • Be careful as you redeem your rewards. Some rewards have expiration dates. Don’t lose the rewards you have earned. Other cards allow their rewards to be received as, for example, $20 cash or $25 as a gift card to a specific store. That’s great if it’s a vendor you normally use. If not, you may be spending your reward money on something other than what is most important to you. If credit card use is a comfortable part of your financial management routine, take advantage of rewards programs. It can be worth several hundred dollars in cash or products. If credit cards are a worry for your family, do not use them. The rewards money is not worth the anxiety and risk.

Very Few Big Game Changes SALT LAKE CITY Some major big game hunting changes -- including splitting Utah into 30 general deer hunting units -- have happened in Utah in the past two years. 2013 should be a lot quieter. The following are the major changes Division of Wildlife Resources biologists are recommending for Utah’s 2013 big game hunts: ● Guaranteeing those who are 18 years of age or younger a chance to hunt during Utah’s general archery buck deer hunt. If young hunters didn’t draw an archery, muzzleloader or rifle deer permit in the big game draw, they could buy a youth general archery deer permit, for the unit of their choice, starting in July. Anis Aoude, big game coordinator for the DWR, says having youth archery permits would not take opportunities away from adult hunters. “The youth permits would be additional permits offered above the regular archery permit cap,” he says. Youth archery permits were not available in 2012. They were available in 2011, though. About 450 youth took advantage of the opportunity and bought a permit that year. ● Changing two limited-entry units -- the Fillmore, Oak Creek South unit and the portion of the Beaver unit that’s west of Interstate 15 -- to general any-bull elk units. Aoude says neither unit has great elk habitat. And most of the elk on the two areas are found on private land. “For those reasons,” he says, “the units don’t give hunters the type of hunting experience most of them want on a limited-entry unit.” Learn more, share your ideas You can see all of the DWR’s big game recommendations at www.wildlife.utah.gov/ public_meetings/info/201211_rac_packet.pdf. After you’ve reviewed the ideas, you can let your Regional Advisory Council members know your thoughts by attending your upcoming RAC meeting or by sending an email to them.
RAC chairmen will share the input they receive with members of the Utah Wildlife Board. The board will meet in Salt Lake City on Dec. 6 to approve rules for Utah’s 2013 big game hunts. Dates, times and locations for the RAC meetings are as follows: Northern Region Nov. 7 6 p.m. Brigham City Community Center 24 N. 300 W., Brigham City Central Region Nov. 8 6:30 p.m. Springville Public Library 45 S.

Building Rental Policies New Building Rental policies are now in place for all facilities in the Garfield County School District. The School Board has been working on this policy by taking public comments and making available the draft versions of the policy for over a year. During the October 2012 School Board meeting, the new Building Rental Policy was passed. Prior to this policy, the rental fees were left to the discretion of the building principals. The old rental policies created inconsistencies between schools, also leaving questions relating to liability coverage. The complete building rental policy is available on the Garfield School District web page under the School Board tab; approved polices. Please note, no charge will be assessed for civic, community or cultural use. I wanted to inform the patrons of Garfield County of the following fee schedule: Civic/Community/Cultural Use—will include civic, community and cultural activities sponsored by local communities. Examples include but are not limited to civic meetings, political events where no funds are collected, cultural rehearsals and performances, lessons, lectures, classes, workshops, intermittent recitals, and recreational activities. NO CHARGE will be associated with this type of activity but a $200 cleaning deposit will be administered per event or group activity. The cleaning deposit will be returned to the sponsor at the end of the activity or event upon determination that the facility has been left in a clean and orderly condition. This determination will be made by the building administrator. Recurring Use will apply to patrons, groups or organizations who rent the school facilities more than one time per month. The rental fee for this particular group will be $25 for each use and a monthly cleaning deposit of $200. The cleaning deposit will be returned to the patrons at the end of each month upon determination that the facility has been left in a clean and orderly condition following each use. This determination will be made by the building administrator. One Time Rental will apply to groups or individuals who rent the facilities one time per month. The rental fee for this type of group will be $150 with an additional cleaning deposit of $200. The cleaning deposit will be returned to the patrons or group at the end of the event upon determination that the facility has been left in a clean and orderly condition. This determination will be made by the building administrator. Nonresident Usage Charges for use by nonresident groups will be negotiated with the local principal or building administrator on a case-by-case basis. With the new Building Rental Policy in place, we are hoping to resolve issues of liability, implementation of a consistent fee schedule, and allowing the public to use the building to benefit the communities. —Superintendent Ben Dalton
PHS SPORT SIDELINES
by Mack Oetting Can you believe the Fall Sports are over? The Lady Cats Volleyball Team finished off the year on a high note. The Cats ended up beating Layton Christian for 5th place. The Cats got in a real tough bracket and they only ended up losing one game at State and that was against St. Joseph. St. Joe was in the finals against Monticello, with Monticello coming away the Champs. Rich took out Piute for third place and Region 20 had 5 teams in the top 9, Piute 4th, Panguitch 5th, Milford 7th beating Escalante who was 8th, followed by Wayne. The girls had an outstanding tournament playing tough in all of their games. The Cats only lost to two 1A teams the whole season, twice to Piute and once to St. Joe. This was supposed to a rebuilding year, with a new Coach, Cherie Frandsen and a bunch of freshmen, sophomore and one Senior. These young players are the same ones that were so good in cross country and didn’t know that this was not going to be their year. What a lot of potential in this team for years to come. They can’t wait for basketball to start. Stay tuned for the 14th annual Lions Club, All star game, honoring Senior Volleyball players from 1A and 2A teams. In sports it couldn’t have been any better so far this fall. The Cat’s base ball team 1st place Champs, the Lady Katelyn Parkin.
Cats Cross Country team, 1st. place Champs, Boys Cross Country 2nd place and now the Lady Cats Volleyball team took 5th at State. Don’t expect a let up with the Bob Cats and the Lady Cats we will have very good basketball teams with many of the players from last year coming back. Matt Houston says his wrestlers are also going to be good with a number of them expected to do well at State. The Salt Lake Tribune nominated Katelyn Parkin as the Athlete of the Week, earlier this month. This is what they said about her. KATELYN PARKIN, Panguitch,Volleyball: As the only senior on the Bobcat’s volleyball team, Parkin has a special role on the squad. “She’s a great leader on the floor,” said Panguitch volleyball coach Cherri Frandsen. “She’s a team captain, and she takes care of the team. She’s my rock…The way she goes, that’s the way the whole team goes. If she plays good, we win.” Parkin, a right side hitter who also plays basketball, works as hard off the court maintaining a 4.0 GPA. She’s helped lead the team to a 5-0 start in region play and a No. 3 ranking. In addition to her leadership skills, she’s one of the team’s most skilled players.
Bryce Valley Elementary News by Maren Stewart, 5th grade
Preschool: Made a lot of fun projects these last few weeks. They are quite the artists. This week they worked with the letter I. 1st: The 1st graders did a great job with their assembly on the 17th! This week they learned about nocturnal animals, especially bats. They will be learning all about spiders next week; and are excited for Halloween! 2nd: Made some Christmas pictures of Cardinals on trees in the snow. It turned out really cool! Our class has a website that students artwork in available on, and they can order different things like mugs, t-shirts, or cards with this artwork on it. Since the end of the quarter was Friday the students chose to bring games/egames and had a lot of fun. We are working on missing addends in Math. Every week the students write a story and at the end of the year will have a book to take home with all the stories written throughout the year! 3rd: This week, third graders been have been studying character trails. They identified what kind of trails a person needs to be a good president for the United States of America. They also turned a pumpkin into one of the charters their books! They did an awesome job on them! 4th: We went on a fall field trip to Frontier Homestead State Park in Cedar City to experience Utah’s past. The staff there and parent helpers provided us with memorable and fun activities! We panned for gold (pyrite), chose what we’d load on our wagon to cross the plains, hunted with at atlatl and dart, washed clothes by hand, rode for the pony express, attended a 1 room school house and played the pioneer games of marbles and grace. Then we discovered Fremont Indian petroglyphs at Parowan Gap! We had fantastic time learning! Thank you parents for your help! In Science and Art we finished learning about the Water Cycle by making a Water Cycle mobile. 5th: We got to carve pumpkins this week! They were from Mr. Barton’s garden. There were lots of creative ideas, and it got us excited for Halloween. There have been a lot of people earning their dog tags, received by reading and taking tests to get points. In Science we did a chemical change by putting a dinosaur in water and it grew. 6th: We did an awesome exploration with music we did a simple science experiment to see if music can create mental images! It was confirmed [as myth busters would say] music makes an image that our mind creates. Music also helped us get our math and vocabulary work done this week as well. It is safe to say that music helps and we enjoyed it!
Back to school with nothing too exciting. With the end of the quarter all grades will be finalized on Wednesday, just so you know. This week school was normal for everyone, but the seniors. The seniors had two career days. The first was in Beaver on Wednesday. Different colleges and universities from around the state of Utah presented to students from BV, Panguitch, Escalante, Beaver and Milford. They picked three schools they wanted to know more about and were able to see the school’s presentation. The second was in Bryce on Thursday. Students from BV, Valley, Panguitch, Piute and Escalante attended. They learned about different jobs with the forest service. The day ended with a hike on Navajo Loop. Both days were long, but fun. This weekend, November 2nd and 3rd, Upward Bound has their Fall On-Campus. They get to go to SUU and learn about different college related things, make and see friends and watch a play. Upward Bound is a great program. Well, have a great week and thanks for reading!

Wayne County Page Loa Elementary Snippets by Lisa Stevens Evaporation, condensation, precipitation—the water cycles are happening again. Mrs. Barlow’s fourth grade class has been learning about the water cycle and weather in their science unit. They even got together with Mrs. Ekker’s class and made cirrus, cumulus and stratus clouds with cotton balls and shaving cream. Mrs. Barlow’s DATES TO REMEMBER…! fourth graders have also been busy little math • Nov 8- (R) Parent Teacher Confermonsters, working with their multipilcation ences and Book Fair from 1 to 8 pm facts, learning the ins and outs of fractions, and • Nov 21- (W) Minimum Day School figuring out elapsed time. In social studies they will dismiss at 12:05 continue to make pages for their Utah Books, • Nov 22 & 23- (R&F) currently they are learning all about Lake BonnTHANKSGIVING BREAK eville and the Utah state symbols. The fourth graders are reading some great books in literature circles and they are also learing about narrative elements of literature and how to be super summarizers. Mrs. Barlow has also taken full advantage of this fun time of year and incorporated it into her art and writing time, “Art is really fun!! Halloween string art is keeping us busy, along with finishing the other half of a spooky picture. We are also writing some interesting Halloween stories with fantastic leads.” The community council and Principal Cherie Blackburn would like to thank all of the teachers, papaprofessionals, aids, cooks, janitors and of course our amazing secretary Carrie Brinkerhoff! You have all made school so wonderful for our children thus far! We recognize how hard you all work every year and especially this year with all the changes in the cirriculum, classrooms, and lunch program, and we as parents can’t express how much we appreciate it.
Couples Learn Relationship Gardening Skills During “Date Night” “Pull the weeds out while they are small” is one of the gems we were given in our Couples Education Date Night held at Sunglow Café on Saturday October 27th. The pot roast dinner was delicious (Thanks to Sunglow) and the presentation was very useful (Thanks to Aaron). We never purposely hurt each other but sometimes it happens and it is important to take care of those issues when they are small – like weeds in our garden. It is also very important to acknowledge that the hurt happened and then just as important to let it go. Many additional gems were presented and door prizes were given. Our next event will be held the first part of December. Watch for the announcement! —GaeLynn Peterson

WAYNE SPORTS by Lauren Jackson
Volleyball season has come to an end! The team had their play-off game on Thursday the 25th of October at noon against Oakley. The girls dominated and beat them easy in three games, which meant they would compete in state the next day. Their first state game was against St. Joseph’s (ranked third in the state). It was a hard fought game, and the badgers had them in the first two games and lost the next three. Their next game was against Green River. The game got so intense that two of the players smacked into each other hard enough to spill blood on the floor, but still the badgers pulled it together and WON! The next day, the 27th, the girls played against Escalante. Though they lost, the scores were incredibly close the entire time. The Lady Badgers won the third match 26-24 but lost by only two points in the fourth match. Way to play hard in the last match of the season, girls! A message from the team: To the coaches... Thank you for stepping up and being our coaches. We appreciate it! We know it was new for all of you and a little bit scary and frustrating at times. We would like to thank you for the opportunity we had to play for you. Thanks for all your hard work! It’s now that time of year to start getting ready for WINTER SPORTS! Boys and girls basketball tryouts are on the 5th of November, as well as wrestling. Best of luck this season Badgers!!!

Be Converted
ily reunions because you are family to them. They might even believe in you more than you do yourself. When they see you, they light up and smile, you are this important to them. When they hug you, really hug you; you feel sincerely loved. They genuinely compliment you. They build you up in public and private. They are never mean, but always kind. They do whatever it takes to help you succeed. They forgive you and do not hold grudges because love doesn’t do that. They take time to teach you how to fish instead of merely giving you a fish because you are of that much value and worth to them. They thank you for being born. They thank you for allowing them to know you. They thank you for teaching
them. They tell you you are a gift. So be converted and save lives. Since Christ told us in Matthew 16: 28-29, “And whosoever will lose his life in this world, for my sake, shall find it in the world to come. Therefore, forsake the world, and save your souls; for what is a man profited, if he shall gain the whole world, and lose his own soul? Or what shall a man give in exchange for his soul?” Cynthia Kimball is a professional speaker and trainer through her company Every1Counts, LLC, and a doctoral student in Workforce Education Leadership.

Prayer Request
By Cynthia Kimball I had a great conversation with a good friend of mine. It was about conversion. We were talking about believing in Jesus Christ and how one can say they follow Him, but saying and doing are very different things. One who truly believes just does. They see someone who needs help and jump in without being asked. These followers do not seek the praise of the world. Actually, they do not want any praise and would rather, even, not be acknowledged. They would give someone a ride regardless of that someone having bedbugs because they know Christ wouldn’t say, “Sorry, can’t help you because I might catch your bedbugs.” They won’t ever say, “Let me know if I can do anything” or “Let me know if you need any help,” because your needs are already evident so they take action instead. They email, call, text or visit you because they felt prompted and listened to that prompting. They sit with you in church because you are sitting alone. Or they come get you to sit with their family. Your name’s safe with them no matter what you do. They won’t judge you, but love you. And they point out your strengths instead of weaknesses. They give you credit even if they thought of the idea. And they select you on their team, and likely first, even if you have traditionally been the last one chosen. They invite you to their Thanksgiving and other holiday meals and fam-

I was not thrilled with the A couple was going out for the evening. They’d gotten ready, all dolled up, cat put out, etc. The taxi arrives, and as the couple got out, the cat shoots back in. They don’t want the cat shut in the house, so the wife goes out to the taxi while the husband goes upstairs to chase the cat out. The wife, not wanting it known that the house will be empty explains to the taxi driver, “He’s just going upstairs to say goodbye to my mother.” A few minutes later, the husband gets into the cab, “Sorry I took so long,” he says. “Stupid old thing was hiding under the bed and I had to poke her with a coat hanger to get her to come out!”
Our minister usually conducts an expanded altar call at the end of his sermon. He asks those with prayers or other requests, to come forward. To the surprise and delight of the congregation, his three-year-old daughter, without a word to the mother, got up and made her way forward. She waited patiently while the others ahead of her made a request. When her turn came, the minister leaned down to ask for her request. She whispered, “Can we go to the restaurant after church?”
Required Course
In my senior year I reluctantly took a required psychology course. The first day, the professor commented on each student’s major, trying to provoke a response. It was working - some students were becoming defensive. When it was my turn, I told him I was a music major. “So,” asked my professor, “what does your father think of you wasting your education to study music?” “He’s just thankful,” I shot back, “that I didn’t go into psychology.”

“Excusez-moi, parlez vous Francais?” he tries. The two continue to stare. “Parlare Italiano?” No response. “Hablan ustedes Espanol?” Still nothing. The Swiss guy drives off, extremely disgusted. The first American turns to the second and says, “Y’know, maybe we should learn a foreign language.” “Why?” says the other. “That guy knew four languages, and it didn’t do him any good.”

Kenneth Culmer Clements June 25, 1925 - October 10, 2012
WESTMINSTER, CO Our wonderful husband and father, Kenneth Culmer Clements, 87, of Westminster, CO died peacefully on October 10, 2012 following a long, happy life. Ken was born in American Fork, UT on June 25, 1925 to Erick LeRoy Clements and Emma Love (Culmer) Clements, the eldest son of seven children. He was raised in American Fork and graduated from AFHS in 1943. He enlisted in the US Navy as a Seabee. He served in the South Pacific during WWII. Following the war, Ken worked as a brick mason for Geneva Steel. In 1947, he met and married the love of his life, Audery Ellen Smith. In 1950, Ken served as a police officer with American Fork City Police. In 1953, he became a Utah Highway Patrol trooper serving in Delta and Panguitch, UT and as sergeant in Nephi, UT. Throughout his life he was a first aid instructor, EMT, volunteer fireman, and Justice of the Peace. He volunteered his time and talent to many church civic projects. Following his retirement in 1978, he moved to Kanab, UT and began brick mason and stone work again. He built four family homes and
hundres of stone fireplaces. Ken loved to drive through open places, especially the desert, where he and Audery spent their retirement years on fourwheelers and living in their Air Stream trailer. He began wood carving in 1994 and gave carvings away as fast as he made them. He survived prostate cancer, pneumonia, and a heart attack. His sense of humor and blue eyes were legendary. He was the heart of our family.

Adus Dorsey Torrey Town as well as many other governmental, educational, and service related organizations officials, gathered at the Loa Wayne County Civic Center on Oct 22nd for the Wayne County Public Agency Cooperating Council meeting. Commissioner Tom Jeffery welcomed everyone to the meeting and provided the Commissioner’s update. A delicious and nutritious lasagna lunch was served, and prominent officials from Snow College in Ephraim, the Utah Department of Transportation, Six County Association of Governments, Workforce Services, the United States Forest Service, Garkane Energy, Division of Natural Resources, Wayne County representatives of the Mormon Pioneer National Heritage Area, Bull Head Sand and Gravel, the Wayne County Business Association and Capitol Reef National Park all introduced themselves and provided service related information applicable and important to Wayne County. The gist of the Wayne County Public Agency Cooperating Council is to maintain open communication channels between cooperating agencies within Wayne County on a regular basis. Also, it provides an opportunity to take advantage of the different service, educational and governmental community-based vantage points that often times get over looked or, at times, are underused and misunderstood. On average, these agencies interact individually on a monthly basis, and through the leadership efforts of Wayne County, this type of group activity is going to be encouraged to share information about available services and opportunities on a regular basis. All interested officials from various communities, as well as local individuals, should
contact Michelle Coleman at the Wayne County Economic Development Office: Michelle Coleman, Director, PO Box 189, Loa Utah 84747, Office Phone:(435)-836-1315 Cell Phone:(435)-616-2116, Fax: (435)-836-2479, or michellewco@gmail.com for more information. Torrey Town officials also attended the Utah Land Use Institute annual 2012 conference held in Sandy, Utah. A prime point of discussion was Form Based Codes / Ordinances and the sometimes Euclidian approach to community planning. Euclidean zoning codes are the most prevalent in the United States. Euclidean zoning is characterized by the segregation of land uses into specified geographic districts and dimensional standards stipulating limitations on development activity within each type of district. Advantages include relative effectiveness, ease of implementation, long-established legal precedent, and familiarity. The Euclidian zoning approach was named for the type of zoning code adopted in the town of Euclid, Ohio, and approved in a landmark decision of the U.S. Supreme Court, Village of Euclid, Ohio v. Ambler Realty Co. Both pro and con Euclidian zoning points of view were presented and discussed to such an extent that both were, at times, hard to distinguish, and the popular quick action of the antacid “Tums” was the snack choice of many during the afternoon break. The Utah Land Use Institute, www.utahlanduse.org, is a Utah non-profit corporation, created to educate and inform Utah citizens about the land use management process. They sponsor seminars, conferences, publications and other public-outreach programs to help all of those involved
in the planning and zoning process to fully participate. Other areas of interest include: private property rights and eminent domain. They also encourage the use of alternative dispute resolution methods to solve land use conflicts and to assist with collaborative decision making. Lieutenant Governor Greg Bell, affectionately referred to as “LT”, has a very interesting vantage point on the planning process in Utah. “LT” proposed that cities and towns in Utah take an in-depth look into their planning process, and “not intentionally over sophisticate it”. Elected officials should also pay close attention to the ever contentious “Private Property Owner Rights”. He also warned that “public decisions should not be driven by the minority”, he also quipped that disagreements often foster new understandings. In an airplane analogy, “LT” pointed out that no matter hard you push on the gas pedal of a car, it will only go so fast; but in an airplane, once it stalls, it falls like a rock. In other words, no matter how hard Cities /Towns try to make public decisions, if the decision-making process goes into a stall, it is going to fall like a rock. The point being, “plan accordingly” and avoid falling like a rock. Lt. Gov. Greg Bell’s suggestion is to “See and Lead change” and deal accordingly with individuals that choose to make life miserable by refusing to be part of the decision-making process. A common theme and constant reminder at most elected officials and state-wide policy-making conferences, is the subject of “The Pitch Fork” toting crowd. The fact is that no matter how much effort is put into to disseminating information or making public decisions there will al-
ways be the 2% that will find fault in anything that gets done and it is all too easy to tell who they are. The Utah Open meetings act PUBLICMEETINGSACTTRAINING.pdf h t t p : / / w w w. l i b r a r y. utah.gov/grants/lsta/ documents/31809UTAH O P E N _ P U B L I C M E E TINGSACTTRAINING.pdf adequately and definitively describes the process for all municipalities and the open public decision-making process, and voids any sort of “Cracker Jack Box” and instantiated decision-making process. A late October cold front moving through Utah caught many weather procrastinators off guard. Below freezing temperatures had some folks scrambling for scraps of last years firewood and stowed away blankets buried deep in their closets in an attempt to stay warm. It was a good reminder that you should take so time to do those yearly winterization projects that you have been thinking about since September. Soon the tourist tap will be turned off and we will be left to our own vices for the next six months. It is a good time to get reacquainted with your neighbors and seniors in your area. It is that gentle time of year when we are reminded of why we are so lucky to live here and always take pride in our communities. It should be no secret that November 6th is Election Day; certainly we have heard more than enough about it from the candidates. As important as anything you do in the next week, your right to vote should be at the top of the list. We have troops all over the globe that are putting themselves in harms way to protect that right, your right.

Taking time out to enjoy family and travel to Florida was the Herb Baugh Family. How fun is that? It is good to see Herb finally get away from Tropic and enjoy himself with his wife, Dorie, his children and grandchildren. Whoopee. Everyone met with Michale Goulding in Orlando for two days and then went back to his place in North Port for two more days. It was a great time for all. They did Disney World for two full days and went to three beaches. There they enjoyed the water and picked up tons of shells and some shark’s teeth. At the beginning of the journey they traveled to Las Vegas and met up with Chris Baugh and then on to Denver where they picked up Jana Baugh and from there they flew to Florida. Coming back everyone, except Michael and family, flew into Denver and then on to Las Vegas and came on home to Tropic from there. The cold was sure a shock after being in the upper 80’s all week! Going on this trip was Herb and Dorie Baugh of Tropic, Dana and Emilee Courtright of Tropic, Chris Baugh of Las Vegas, Jana Baugh of Colorado and then in Florida Michael, Lourdes, Allannah, and Taylor Goulding joined them. It sounds like they all had a wonderful time. Belatedly we welcome Ashton and Ellen Robinson to Cannonville where they are building a new home. They love it here and are enjoying getting acquainted with everyone in the Bryce Area. Ken and Georgia Bettridge of Cedar City spoke in Cannonville today. Georgia is the sister of Gay Shakespeare of Cannonville. They reported
on their mission to Portland Oregon and shared their adventures. Baylee Baugh is now in Young Women, congratulations to her. Her parents are Brandon and Holly Baugh. Grandparents are Marty and Ethel Rich. Ron and Deene Baugh of West Valley are her grandparents also and Gloria Clark is her great-grandma. Trevor Pierson is getting ready to leave the MTC and go out into the Mission field in Texas. He is the son of Clint and Denise Pierson. Zoey and Ernie Maes spoke in Henrieville. She is the daughter of Arlo and Fawn Goulding and they spoke on their mission to Uruguay. Henrieville is sponsoring Food, Fun and Fugitives for the youth for Halloween. Dale Pollock is serving apple, peach, and cherry cobbler with hot chocolate and marshmallows around the bonfire. It was a lot of fun for all involved. The school had a wonderful Halloween carnival. Thanks to all for their help and service in putting this together. Doyle Jackson has had eye surgery and got an infection and had to go back in to have further surgery on his eye. We wish him a speedy recovery and good health and a happy homecoming. Lance Jagger had surgery on his wrist and we wish him well and a speedy recovery. Nine men and boys got together and put a new roof on Julie Johnson’s home. It is the old home of Ken Goulding and Julie is his daughter. It was a great service project for her. We wish Wendy Brinkerhoff a more comfortable time and a speedy recovery of her
injuries from a broken leg. It will be a while before she can get a cast put on it and she has to stay quiet. That would be so hard to do because she is so full of energy. We wish you luck Wendy. Jay Waite passed away and will have a funeral on Friday in Hurricane. He is the husband of Shanna Goulding Waite who passed away a month ago. We send our condolences out to the family members and let them know they are in our prayers and thoughts. The Boyd & Nanette Spencer family spoke in Tropic today and they did a wonderful job. They recently moved to Tropic from Orderville and we really enjoy having them here in Tropic. We send condolences to Dave Brothwell on the passing of his father, Dick Brothwell from Hurricane. We want him to know he is in our thoughts and prayers. His wife Tanya has had her mother her visiting for awhile. NOTICE by special request: Superintendent Ben Dalton and the School Board passed a building use agreement, mainly for those teaching community events in the schools, such as Dance, Gymnastics, Cheer, Karate, Clogging, and Music, to raise their rent from $30 per month to $300 - $500 per month to rent the Elementary & High School. This is a public building we all pay taxes for and this a ridiculous request! They can’t afford this!!! All of these programs will have to discontinue if we don’t get the school board to change their minds. There is no where else to teach these events in the town, so
there are no other options. It would really help if any and all of you would send an email or give the Superintendent Ben Dalton a call. The District Office phone number is 435676-8821, also Ken Platt is our area’s representative. The website to email the Superintendent and School Board members is www.garfield. k12.ut.us. You can also review suggestions made for rental agreements, and the rental policy that was passed on this website. Tell them we want to save these activities offered to our children by making it affordable to rent to school for the Instructors. The same issue is affecting Escalante also. There is a School Board meeting here at BV High School Auditorium, November 15th at 5:00 p.m. to try to fight this. Anyone that can come help fight this would really be appreciated! We need everyones support on this. Look for petitions, and reminders of the meeting around town as well. Thank you! We do not want to see our children lose these extra curricular activities in our area. Please help. The children in our area cannot afford to go out of here to take these lessons or participate in these sports so it is vital to their growth that the teachers and leaders can afford to rent the space to work with the children. Thank you for your participation and interest in this situation. Have a great week and enjoy your Halloween kids. They are so cute, even the teenagers that come are delightful. Please call or email your news to me so we can have a good column. Thanks VS

ESCALANTE News by Marlene Haws ~ 826-4859 • marleneh@color-country.net As I sit down to write the news this week I don’t have much to tell, so will begin and see where it takes me! First of all I was both glad and sad to hear that the Canyon Country Chapter of BCHU (Back Country Horsemen of Utah) have helped clean up the spot where the Cowpuncher Ranger Station used to stand. It burned to the ground last year. I would have liked to have been there had I been younger, but glad that I wasn’t because I would have shed many tears. My two sisters, my brother and our mom spent many happy hours there with our father, Starns Mecham, when he worked for the Forest service those 30 + years. That was back when he headed many crews who worked all summer to trim trees, pile and burn slash, paint bug trees and see that the trees were sprayed for bugs, etc. Just a few years ago I rode into the forest area just North of Blue Spruce and Cowpuncher and it made me sick to see all the dead trees in that area. My dad would turn over in his grave if he knew! But then that was back in the days when Escalante was pronounced Escalante too! With an A in the middle and an E at the end. Granted, there were some who got lazy and left the E off, shortening it to Escalant. That is until Nathella Woolsey straightened us all out! But we never, ever, called it Escalontay as some do now! We have always tried to accept change, but there are still a few things that make us older folks grind our teeth and shake our heads sometimes!
Brooke Palmer shot a big buck last week! It looked like a four pointer on facebook but she says it was 4 points on one side and 3 on the other. Anyway she was really excited! Tom and Marilyn Jackson are spending some time at their time share condo in San Antonio, Texas. You may have guessed that is quite close to where their daughter and sonin-law, JaNae and Michael Aston live now. So they can help their granddaughter, Kiera, spoil her new baby sister, Mikenzie. After the marathon was over, Mary Parkin, whose job keeps her on the road a lot, was off again. So Drew and John will be cookin’ their own eggs, etc. again for a few days. This time Mary was able to spend some time in Boston with her daughter. Hopefully she got some rest. She did a good job of keeping records on the computer for the marathon and Drew can rest while he’s working on the remodeling job he is doing on his house! Facebook tells me that John Spencer got his deer while he and his dad, Jim, were hunting. He didn’t say where, for sure, but the picture looked like it was taken in our mountains around here! Lane Liston is home and recovering from hip surgery. He is doing well and promised us a dance in the near future when Deon Alvey and I visited with him and Geraldine last Friday. Ken Steed hauled sod in to the residence of Brent and Patrice Cottam last week and, while Brent was away haul-
ing fuel, Patrice and her kids, Chad and Jordon Cottam and Elisa Lyman laid the sod all around the house! It looked great and will look even better when they get some flowers planted next summer. Nathan Lyman spent the weekend riding on the 50 Mile Mountain with Sam Spencer and Steve Westoff, gathering up cows for Steve. Par Coughlin has been to the new body parts store again! He has had his knee operated on and a carpal tunnel operation on is wrist. No pain, he went to a football game Thursday evening, drove home on Friday, but Saturday he was hunting for his meds and crutches! That’s what you call “delayed action”, Pat! Only in the reverse! Hope you feel better by now. Don’t forget the “Escalante Holiday festival” on November 16th and 17th. Contact Camille Shakespear if you have a nativity set you are willing to display. Her number is 435-826-4479. Your sets will be secure. Veterans Day is coming up on the 11th. Contact Marty Henry if you have pictures or memorabilia to display. Her number is 435-772-6527. For vendor information and sign up call Karin at 435-826-4946. Our girls are back from the state volleyball tournament, held at Utah Valley University (UCCU) in Orem. They lost their first game with Rich; won the second game with Wendover; won the third game with Wayne and the fourth game with Milford to give them 8th place in the tournament. We are very proud of them and
appreciate the good way they represent us wherever they go. Congratulations, girls! Wade and Shelley Barney had their daughter Candice Shakespear and family here, from Roy, last week. Jace Taylor, son of Jerry and Monica Taylor reported his mission in the First Ward on Sunday. The Second Ward Primary presented the program in their ward. Berniece Losee, Spanish Fork, sister to Ben Porter, was in a car wreck last week. Her car was totaled and she has a ruptured disc in her back, which may require surgery later on, so she will be dealing with that for a while. Renee Porter took a fall. Hurt her knee and her pride (I’m sure) and blacked her eye. We wish both of them well. Amy Jo Koyle Terry and her brother, Wyatt Koyle, spent the weekend here with Marc and Susann Mclemore and family. This was the weekend of the marathon. In fact they both ran in the marathon and I did not pick up on that. Sorry! Wyatt even ran third in the ten mile race. Congratulations to him. Amy and Wyatt are children of Kendall and Laura Koyle and they lived here during some of their kids growing up years. Amy is married with two children and lives in Logan. Wyatt lives in Heyborn, Idaho where his parents reside. Tyler and Lisa Lyman will have all their children home so they can take a family picture. It would be fun to see that picture when it is all done. We haven’t seen all their kids for quite some time.
FYI PANGUITCH
I hope all went well with the trick or treating last night. Fright night is always fun for the kids and I hope they are all safe while they are out. Hope you made it to the parade with your camera, I think my favorites are the teachers. The weather is still holding good and the leaves are finally down; oh autumn is so short. Did you get your deer? In Pat’s day that was the meat her family had for the winter. Pat and I just got back from our vacation down to the coast of California, in San Juan Capistrano. The weather was really good, mid 80s and no wind. We spent a day on the Am Track going down to San Diego and the Zoo. On Am Track you ride along the coast and you don’t have to worry about traffic, or getting lost, it is really is relaxing, especially on your ride home. There is a bus that runs out to the zoo from downtown and only cost a dollar (seniors), you don’t have to look for a parking spot that way. The zoo is one of the best in the world and has very large areas for the animals, a lot of up and down walking. The zoo now has a tram that stops at various stops so if you get tired you can ride the bus to the next area. October is “kids get in free month” and there were a lot of folks there. The next day we got brave and went to Disney Land on Am Track with the same results, relaxing and really quite easy. The train stop is at the Anaheim Baseball stadium and they also have a bus to Disney at one dollar (seniors). Hot tip: when you go to Disney, parking is confusing, and expensive (20.00), find Anaheim Stadium and park for free and ride the bus to the Park. I thought that Disney was a little pricey last time we were there, but this time it has got out of hand. Hopper tickets for both parks are now $125 and kids $119. However it was Thursday and it was as crowded as ever. It’s the happiest place in the world and everyone was having a good time. On the California side they have done extensive change along
by Mack Oetting ~ mackoetting @gmail.com the lines of “Cars,” the movie. We went on the two newest rides, a large tire that runs on air and is a bumper car-like. The other ride was Cars and you rode with six people in the car and it goes through an area that looks like Red Canyon. You putt putt through most of the ride till you come to a stop and another car pulls up along side and you take off in a race to the finish line, over hoop de dodoes and around sharp curves and I didn’t get sick. Both rides are old people approved. The area around the Cars is unbelievable, it look so much like So. Utah, Bryce, Red Canyon and Zions all rolled into one. I have seen how they build these rock formations with chicken wire and concrete and it is beautiful. Near the Small World ride we ran into Jennifer Bremner and her daughters out seeing the sights. It is a small world! The one disadvantage of riding Am Track was we thought that the last train left at 8:00 and we had to miss our favorite, the Disney parade and the water show at Calif. Adventure. However when we got back, there was a last train that left at 10:30 that we could have taken. It only took us 45 minutes to get back to San Juan, we couldn’t have made it that fast in our car. Next time I think will take the Am Track up the Coast to Santa Barbara or even Monterey. One pleasant surprise on our trip home was buying gas in Mesquite. Mesquite usually has the most expensive gas any where and when we stopped for a pit stop the gas was $3.47 a gallon. Gas had dropped by 50 cents in 2 weeks in Calif. We are importing the lowest amount of oil from OPEC in thirty years. Gas in Kansas and Texas is below $3:00 a gallon. Don’t expect much in Utah; they are the last State to respond to a reduction in wholesale oil. The drilling companies are pulling out of drilling for natural gas (because of the glut of natural gas) and switching over to using the same process in drill-
ing for oil. Back to Panguitch, tomorrow night, Friday and Saturday the 2nd and 3rd, the play Joseph and the Technicolor Coat, will be playing at the High School. There are 60 students involved in the play, with many of the parts doubled cast. Elaine Baldwin and Cheryl Church always put on fun plays and because of the casting you can come on two different nights to watch both casts. Elaine said the coat was the second hardest thing that she has ever done. The following week there will be two more showings, again on Friday and Saturday nights. See you there. This Tuesday, November 6th is Election Day and if you haven’t voted yet take the time to express wishes at the ballot box. Don’t forget to vote the whole ballot, School Board, Judges and various issues that need to have your consideration. Also the City will have an information only paper; the City would like to know if the People have an interest in putting in a swimming pool at the park. We have around 500 kids in our area that could use the pool to learn to swim, a great low impact exercise for the older generation and it beats running on the joints for some of the younger folks.
This is only an inquiry to see what the interest is in the pool and it will give the City time to check out the cost and inform us and nothing will happen on it till next years election, where you will vote on it. If you have already voted, you can still come down and sign the information paper for the pool. On next Friday the 10th the Elementary School will be honoring the Veterans and would like all the Veterans to come out for this program. If you have any memorabilia from your time in the service bring it down, the kids are fascinated by this kind of stuff. On Monday the 12th there will be a dinner at the Senior Center hosted by the American Legion and all Veterans and Spouses are invited. Good food and entertainment for all to enjoy. Keep in mind the Thanksgiving dinner, it also will be at the Senior Center and will be for all those with small families. It won’t be long before Christmas will be here, get out your lists. Happy birthday Janzon Orton ( we share our B-day). Let’s see, last year I had the spirit and this year if 7 is lucky it should be double lucky year for me. Oh where did years go? Till we meet again.

As we honor our armed forces this Veterans Day, let’s also acknowledge the financial challenges they and their families often face, both while in service and after discharge. Fortunately, service members needn’t go it alone: Many tax benefits, social services and financial assistance programs are available to help. Special tax benefits for active duty personnel include: • If you move because of a permanent change of station, you may be able to deduct unreimbursed moving expenses. • If you serve in a combat zone for any part of a month, any military pay you received during that month is not considered taxable income. • You can also include nontaxable combat pay as “earned incomeâ€? when claiming the Earned Income Tax Credit for low- to moderate-income earners. • Deadlines for filing tax returns, paying taxes, filing refund claims and taking other actions with the IRS are automatically extended for qualifying military members. • Joint tax returns generally must be signed by both spouses. But, when one spouse is unavailable due to military duty, you may use a power of attorney to file a joint return. • If you’re an armed forces reserves member, you can deduct unreimbursed travel expenses for travel more than 100 miles from home to perform reserve duties. • As you transition to civilian life, you may be able to deduct certain job-hunting costs. • Most military installations offer free tax-filing and preparation assistance during and/or after tax filing season. • The IRS’s Armed Forces’ Tax Guide provides an excellent summary of many important military-related tax topics (www.irs.gov). A few suggestions and precautions for military families facing financial challenges: • Each base command offers free financial specialists to discuss personal finances and help with budgeting; many banks and credit unions also offer these services. • Each military branch has a relief society and many grant emergency loans. Turn to them first before taking out a payday loan. • Check-cashing outlets, pawn shops and other lenders are prohibited from charging more than 36 percent interest to military families for payday loans. • If you do go off-base for financial assistance, you’re responsible for disclosing your military status in order to receive military rates. • Before signing loan documents, make sure you fully understand all conditions (annual percentage rate, monthly payment amount, fees, penalties, etc.) Don’t hesitate to take the paperwork home to think it over or consult with a financial advisor. • Avoid pawn shop loans that use your car’s title as collateral. Besides paying a very high rate, missing a payment could cost you ownership of your car. Many governmental and private organizations provide financial information aimed at the special needs of the military, including: • The Consumer Financial Protection Bureau’s Office of Servicemember Affairs (www. consumerfinance.gov/servicemembers) features a variety of financial planning tools. • Military OneSource (www.militaryonesource.mil) helps service members and families juggle such concerns as money management, spouse employment, education, parenting, childcare, relocation and deployment. • SaveAndInvest.org, a financial education program created by the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority to improve military members’ saving and investing knowledge (www.saveandinvest.org/MilitaryCenter). • The GI Bill provides a broad range of education benefits for veterans (www.gibill. va.gov). • The government provides an intensive, three-day Transition Assistance Program for separating or retiring service members and spouses to ease reentry into the civilian workplace (www.taonline.com/TAPOffice). It’s vital that our military understand the benefits available to them – as well as the financial pitfalls to which they may be vulnerable. Jason Alderman directs Visa’s financial education programs.

From the new officers: RayLynne Cooper, President It is my honor to serve as the President of the WCBA in 2012-2013. One of the best decisions I made after moving to Wayne County was to join Business Association and begin attending events, and volunteering to serve on committees for various activities. My involvement has helped me not only develop relationships with
Loreli Anderson
West Taylor
some fantastic people, but it has also helped increase my business. I have the great privilege to serve as President of the Board for the next 2 years, and as I go out and begin to talk about the WCBA with business people in the community there are usually 2 questions that I get asked. First is why I got involved, and second is what the WCBA can do for my business. By getting involved it would increase my business, and help me develop relationships with people that would eventually lead to referrals. I’ve been able to accomplish both of those. The second question is a little more difficult to answer because the WCBA is something that takes some effort on your part in order to get something in return. Attend, Participate, Network YOU and I have a stake in Wayne County’s future I invite you to participate as a member as we go forward with determination, perseverance, and passion keeping Wayne County this awesome place to live, work, and play. I believe wholeheartedly, if our businesses and our community work
together Wayne County will continue to flourish. Jessica Alvey, Vice President (President-Elect) I am excited to continue the work of business collaboration that has been the trademark of the Business Association. I would love to see every business in Wayne County fully participating and enjoying the benefits of this amazing group of business leaders. Loreli Anderson, Program Officer I will be working closely with the WCBA President RayLynne Cooper to carry out the vision of continuing education and projects in my position as Program Officer. I am excited to be involved with generating one or two workshops to educate students (and adults if needed) on creating a resume, interviewing, proper attire, and customer service. We are planning a job fair in February at Bicknell to connect employees with employers. An intern and training program is also in the works. West Taylor, Development Officer I am excited as the development director to brainstorm with local business owners to see what can be done to expand our beautiful county via social media. With sites such as Youtube and Facebook every business in Wayne County can create a “Rockstar/ Corporate” image very inexpensively. I am currently working on a large Youtube project for another Utah corporation and plan to share what is learned there with the great businesses of Wayne County.

Joe Brown Wayne County Commissioner
Loa has been my life-long home of 57 Years where my wife Lynda and I have raised 4 children, all of whom currently live in Wayne County.
I have spent several years serving the community as a volunteer fire fighter/ fire chief and a volunteer EMT. As a retired co-owner of a small business I have had the opportunity to work closely with several county, city, state, and federal agencies.
As commissioner I will put the best interest of Wayne County first. I have the time and desire to build a better future for our county and I believe strongly in standing up for what is right, being ethical, fair, and honest.
The ‘Public Lands’ lawsuit will take 30 years to settle! But we need jobs now And to stop wasting over $3M/year of our tax $$ While our schools & healthcare suffer

Stay Safe This Hunting Season Hunting season is underway, and both beginners and old pros are gearing up for adventure. But even the most seasoned hunters don’t know everything about their sport. Hunting can be dangerous, and experts warn that there is such a thing as getting too comfortable with firearms. “Everyone needs instruction,” says David E. Petzal, co-host of the Outdoor Channel show “The Gun Nuts” and co-author of the new Field & Stream book, The Total Gun Manual: 335 Essential Shooting Skills. “Admitting what you don’t know is actually one of the most crucial steps toward becoming an expert shooter and a safer hunter.” With that in mind, Petzal and co-author Phil Bourjaily are providing crucial safety tips to anyone planning to go hunting this season: • Every time you see a gun, pick one up or point it, assume that it’s loaded and treat it accordingly. • Make sure your safety is always on and that the barrel is pointing down when you are walking or transporting your gun. When hunting with dogs, be sure the muzzle is level with the ground at the very least and preferably angled up in the air. • Never shoot at a sound or movement. Be absolutely sure that you’re shooting at an animal and that no people are anywhere near your target. • Wear at least the required amount of orange so you don’t become another hunter’s target. • Make sure all animals are dead before strapping them onto your vehicle. • Wait until your kids are old enough to understand and follow rules before bringing them hunting. • Never climb a tree or over a fence with a loaded gun. • Keep your finger off the trigger until you’re ready to shoot. • Save those beers until the end of the day, it’s just plain common sense. • Look well beyond your target before you shoot. High-powered ammunition can travel up to three miles and still be deadly. • Hunt with a trusted buddy. If you’re alone, make sure that someone knows where you will be and when to expect you back. If you’re hunting with an unsafe shooter, you don’t need an excuse to leave. • If using a tree stand to hunt, don’t forget to wear a safety belt. • Be sure all your equipment is working properly and you know how to operate it before hunting. • Store and transport ammunition separately from guns. Keep everything under lock and key when it’s not in use. • It doesn’t take much effort to elevate your heart rate into the danger zone. Make sure you exercise regularly for better fitness on your hunt. Thorough safety tips, buying guides and practical gun handling advice can be found in “The Total Gun Manual: 335 Essential Shooting Skills” by Phil Bourjaily and David Petzal. For more information, visit Bourjaily and Petzal’s blog, www.fieldandstream. com/blogs/gun-nut. Before heading out for your next big hunt, lock and load for your adventure by reviewing life-saving safety rules. —Statepoint Media
