School Is Back In Session!
Schools are back in session; watch for students The Missouri State Highway Patrol reminds drivers that many schools throughout the state are starting the 2017-2018 school year. This brings a change in traffic patterns - school buses and parents taking their children to school will join other motorists on the road and affect the morning and afternoon commute. It is critical for drivers to be alert, especially near school zones, playgrounds, and bicycle paths. Whatever route you drive, expect this additional traffic and prepare by allowing extra time to reach your destination. Most traffic crashes involving young drivers (under the age of 21) in 2016 occurred between 3 p.m. and 4 p.m., when school typically lets out. Drivers need to be aware of the increased traffic during this time—not just in areas around school, but all around town. Many of these drivers are young and inexperienced. Parents: It is im-

arrested by the Lawrence County Sheriff’s Department on Monday, August 7 and bonded out the same day. He is to appear in court on Monday, August 28 in Howell County for a bond appearance hearing. The investigation began when the Greenfield Chief of Police contacted the Missouri State Highway Patrol advising that a 23-year-old female had given a written statement alleging that Kearney had sexually assaulted her at residences in Pomona and Mtn. View between 2003 and 2007.
The female victim stated that Kearney had sexually assaulted her on multiple occasions that first started in Pomona around 2003 and continued after the family moved to Greenfield in 2008. She stated the assaults took place at least once per week,
some times more than once per week. Investigators ascertained Kearney lived in Pomona and Mtn. View during 2003 and 2007. When the biological mother was interviewed she stated See Arrest on Page 5

Suspect apprehended covered the pedestrian to be Ian McCarthy. McCarthy was arrested without incident and transported to Golden Valley Hospital in Clinton due to a gunshot wound. After an evaluation by medical personnel, he was transported to a Kansas City area hospital for treatment. McCarthy was treated at the hospital and released into the Patrol’s custody. McCarthy was transported by troopers to the Henry County Jail where he is being held without bond. The Henry County Prosecuting Attorney’s Office has charged McCarthy with Murder-First Degree and Armed Criminal Action. The charges for which McCarthy was arrested are mere accusations and not evidence of guilt. Evidence in support of the charges must be presented before a court of competent jurisdiction whose duty is to determine guilt or innocence.

County, it was pristine and he planned to farm cattle and goats on the land. Then feral hogs moved in. Feral hogs are an aggressive invasive species. Their violent nature, rooting habits, and known diseases pose a threat to wildlife, farm crops, and the balance of nature. “I had planned until this problem got so big to have cattle and goats in here,” Hobbs said. “I’d be afraid to put cattle out there because there’s no way I’m going to
going to happen.” The feral hogs didn’t only dash Hobb’s hopes of farming his land, they’ve also significantly decreased the numbers of wildlife that once thrived on the property. “My turkey population went from one that I could actually go out and see every day, 15 to 20 of them in a flock, and in three to four different places on my property. Now those no longer exist,” he said. Hobbs first began to try
the help of his friends to trap small numbers of them at a time. “We’ve been trying to control the hogs for several years with our own small traps and hunting,” Hobbs said. “But over the past two or three years, the problem has become so severe that there’s no way to control them personally by hunting.” Now, on any given night, more than 30 feral hogs will congregate in Hobbs’ front yard, leaving scat every foot or so and rooting up his once flat, lush yard into continuous divots. His fields are in even worse shape. “These spots get rooted eight-to-10 inches, quite often though it’s 12, 16, sometimes 18-inches deep,” he said. Those damaged fields, the dashed hopes of farming, and the general destruction Hobbs has endured on his property are why he and other landowners reached out the Missouri Department of Conservation (MDC) to help.

Howell County 911 Emergency Services is celebrating its 25th Anniversary serving the public and citizens of the Howell County. On August 31, 1992 Howell County 911 went live taking 911 emergency calls for the citizens of Howell County and dispatching the various emergency services in the county. From meager beginnings, Howell County 911 has come a long way. Howell County 911 began taking calls in the basement of the Courthouse with minimal equipment. Howell County 911 has since grown, now using updated call taking and dispatching techniques to better serve the public. In 2008 the voters of Howell County passed a sales tax allowing Howell County 911 Emergency Services to keep abreast of new technology and upgrade our services.

Smith visits Ozark Regional Stockyards For the fifth year in a row, Congressman Jason Smith is dedicating the month of August to focus on farms in southeast and south central Missouri. Congressman Smith visits Missouri’s agricultural operations to hear directly from farmers, ranchers and agriculture industry professionals to get a better understanding of what challenges they are facing and how he can help as they work to feed and supply America. One of the biggest concerns Smith heard about during last August’s farm tour was the Waters of the United States (WOTUS) regulation, which sought to regulate ev-
ery drop of water on Missouri farmers’ land. In the last year, Smith worked directly with the Trump Administration to stop this rule and relieve Missouri farmers from the burden of WOTUS. Congressman Smith plans to stop at farms in each of the 30 counties in Missouri’s Eighth Congressional District as he has done every August since he was elected. This year’s focus on farms will highlight the people in our area who run these operations and the tremendous impact that agriculture has on the economy and rural way of life in southeast and south central Missouri.

Managers and supervisors are critical to the operation of every organization. They oversee employees and are charged with the task of getting work done through other people. Providing your managers the tools to motivate employees, coach them and resolve conflict is key to helpinhg your organization run smoothly. If you have new managers who need help connecting with the employees they manage or existing supervisors who need a refresher course, OzSBI has the solution for you. OzSBI is offering two professional development seminars this month in cooperation with the Missouri Training Institute at the University of Missouri.— Motivating Employees and Coaching and Conflict. These courses have been well-received. Here is what a past attendee said about these seminars, “It was wonderful and I look forward to see how I grow as a leader from taking this course and the results that will show at the office.” Dr. Cammie Svuba, Healthy Lifestyles

SESSIONS BEING OFFERED Motivating Employees, August 30, 9 a.m.-4 p.m. This workshop will explore the topic of employee motivation and why the carrot and stick approach to energizing your employees just doesn’t work. Learn what you can do to create a work environment of motivated employees who consistently demonstrates a willingness to perform and achieve results. What You Will Learn: Define employee motivation; what it is and what it is not; Examine organizational structures and systems that can either enhance employee motivation
or destroy it; Discuss the appropriate use of extrinsic motivators; Identify the intrinsic motivators of your employees and what you can do to tap into them for improved performance; Explore three fundamental factors for employee motivation: autonomy, mastery, and purpose. Coaching and Conflict, August 31, 9 a.m.-4 p.m. This workshop examines two functions critical to super-
visory success; coaching employees and handling conflict. Identify tools and techniques to help shape your employees’ behavior on the job and what to do when conflict among your staff is not promoting creativity or innovation but decreased morale, more re-work and lower productivity. What You Will Learn: What coaching is; Coaching strategies based on your employees’ ability and willingness to do
the job; Supervisory tools used by effective coaches; Your personal conflict management style as well as the style of those around you; How each conflict management style can be used for different outcomes; A six-step process for working through conflict in a more collaborative way.

For the 115th year, the Missouri State Fair is welcoming citizens from across the state to enjoy 10 days full of fun, food and, of course, agriculture. With different events and activities scheduled each day, there is something for everyone to enjoy. From now until Aug. 20, the state fairgrounds in Sedalia will be filled with people taking in musical acts, rodeos, rides, booths, crafts and agriculture exhibits. The fair also provides a great opportunity for youth involved in 4H and Future Farmers of America (FFA) programs to showcase their hard work and learn from other competitors. The opportunity to spend several days, or even just a day, at the fair talking with like-minded people about farming practices and agricultural projects is nothing but beneficial. On Aug. 19 at 1:30 p.m. in the Lowell Mohler Assembly Hall, the fair’s Sale of Champions will take place. This event allows spectators to see and learn from competitors whose work has been recognized for its outstanding excellence. Each year more than 15 youth are awarded scholarships for their work and dedication in their varying fields of expertise. The fair is a wonderful place for younger school-aged children to see older students’ successes. Each day highlights a special theme at the fair. On Aug. 15,
attendees are encouraged to help others by donating canned food for $1 off the price of admission. The Missouri Famers Care Food Drive benefits Feeding Missouri, a group of several Missouri food banks aiming to provide hunger relief for Missourians across the state. Governors’, Legislators’ and Judges’ Day is Aug. 17, and it is also Throwback Thursday with discounted gate admissions and vendor pricing. Youth in Agriculture Day is Aug. 19, and there will be specials for those 12 and under throughout the fair. I encourage you to stop by your local Missouri County Extension office for a coupon to be used that day. The fair has a tradition of encouraging Missouri’s youth in their agricultural endeavors; but there are also plenty of opportunities to make family memories that will last a lifetime. The 2017 Missouri State Fair runs through Sunday, Aug. 20. I encourage all residents of the 33rd District to attend. For more information, including admission prices and a complete schedule of daily events, please click here or visit the official Missouri State Fair website at www.mostatefair.com. You may also call (800) 422-FAIR (3247). As always, I appreciate it when groups from around Missouri and from our community back home come to visit me at the Capitol. If you would like to arrange a time to come and visit me in Jefferson City, or if you ever have any questions, please don’t hesitate to contact my Capitol office at (573) 7511882.

The Time to Act is Now When I spend time with folks across southeast and south central Missouri, whether it’s at my public roundtables, multiple small business stops or frequent listening posts, I consistently hear from families whose healthcare premiums and copayments have doubled, individuals who only have one, or in some cases no health insurance choices, and business owners who are spending more and more of their hard-earned resources trying to comply with costly Obamacare regulations than actually using those resources to provide benefits and coverage for their employees. As I take the month of August to focus on farms, I have heard so many Missouri farmers tell me the number one thing they are concerned about is their health insurance costs and access. One family I spoke with is paying $20,000 a year for their Obamacare health insurance, and that is WITH the help of cost sharing subsidies. Another farmer I spoke with has sacrificed health insurance for himself because he can only afford it for his wife and daughter. During my many trips back to Missouri between votes and committee hearings, my conversations
with farmers and small business owners often come back to the same question, “my costs to provide healthcare for my family and employees is through the roof, how do we get them down?” At one of my healthcare roundtables in Cape Girardeau, I heard from a packed house where nearly everyone, including doctors, said we needed more price transparency in healthcare. I couldn’t agree more. At another one of my healthcare roundtables in Rolla, we had more than 40 folks in the room, nearly all of whom were concerned about the dwindling number of providers in the area. Unfortunately, under Obamacare, 26 of 30 counties in Missouri’s 8th Congressional District only have one insurer to choose from. There is no choice, and there is no competition, which means higher prices. Our country is better than this. We cannot allow hardworking Americans to suffer under Obama’s failing healthcare law. The House of Representatives has made progress on bills that will allow insurance to be sold across state lines and give people who own small businesses or run farms the opportunity to ban together, buy insurance as a larger group and lower their overall costs. We have passed bills to end the anti-trust exemption for insurance providers to bring back competition. We have worked hard to give Americans relief from the burden of Obamacare, and it’s time for the U.S. Senate to do the same. In order to finish what we’ve started, Senators are going to have to stop letting politics get in the way, do what’s right for the American people and take action on legislation that will make a difference. We have a president who is ready to sign a repeal bill for one of the most intrusive pieces of legislation in my lifetime, and the House of Representatives has voted to repeal and replace Obamacare multiple times. Now the Senate has a choice. Do they want to finish the work to relieve Missourians and folks all across the country of the burden that is Obamacare or continue with the status quo? People have shouldered this burden long enough, and the time to act is now.

Using a cell phone, texting, or adjusting the radio can be the distraction that leads to a traffic crash. Texting is against the law for anyone under the age of 22. Missouri law states that on a two-lane road, if a school bus is stopped and displaying warning signals while loading or unloading children, drivers must stop when meeting and following the bus. However, it is only necessary to stop on a four-lane highway when following the bus. Drivers, when you see a stopped school bus, stay alert and follow the law. Children may not be aware of traffic and dart unexpectedly into the roadway. In 2016, one person was killed and 389 people were injured in school bus crashes. Missouri experienced 974 traffic crashes involving school buses last year. Parents are encouraged to talk to their children about riding a bus, walking, or driving to school in a safe manner. If they ride a bike, please make sure they wear a helmet and follow traffic laws. Let’s help Missouri students return to school safely. The only 100 percent survivable crash is the one that never happens. Make sure everyone in the vehicle is properly restrained in a seat belt or child restraint. Every day as we travel on Missouri’s roadways, we trust that every driver on the road is going to obey the speed limit, pay attention, and drive sober. “Don’t Violate The Trust.”

hearing. The charges set forth in an indictment are merely accusations, and each defendant is presumed innocent until and unless proven guilty.
Feral Hogs
From Page One
management biologist with MDC, is working hard to trap hogs and to pull people together on the effort. McLain leads feral hog elimination efforts in southeast Missouri. He spends a lot of his time with landowners like Hobbs and Bridger, outlining plans to trap the feral hogs on their property. This cooperation between landowners and conservation groups is the key to success in feral hog elimination. “With the new innovations in traps and with more landowners on board, all of us getting together and working at it, we can saturate that landscape with effort and come up with better traps, better baits and better ways of doing things,” McLain said. So far in 2017, MDC and partners have removed 4,128 feral hogs from Missouri, which is a great increase from previous years. This is nearly double the progress that was made at the same time in 2016. Increased efforts and better technology continue to show success each year and McLain says MDC and its partners will continue improving until their goal is met. “As an agency with our partners, our goal is complete elimination of feral hogs from Missouri,” McLain said.

Brenda Lee Bryant, daughter of Robert Huffman and Marjorie Huffman, was born March 17,
1957, in Houston, Missouri and passed away in Springfield, Missouri on August 6, 2017, at the age of 60. Brenda was united in marriage to Terry Wayne Bryant on October 2, 1976, making their union together 40 years. They were blessed with three children: Cody Bryant; Christopher Bryant; and Jacqueline Bryant. Terry and Brenda were inseparable. Throughout their 40-year marriage, the two spent less than five days apart. Brenda worked as a nurse for the St. John/Mercy Health System since March 1993. She was a dedicated employee, always arriving early and staying late. She rarely took a sick day during the span of her
twenty-four year career. Brenda was committed to serving the patients in rural Howell and Shannon County and cared deeply about them. Her commitment to her patients won her a nation-wide award for Teamwork in Healthcare based on survey responses provided by patients. While her patients loved her for her friendliness, compassion, and genuine concern for others, her co-workers loved her for her reliability, work ethic, and ability to execute a clever prank. When Brenda wasn’t serving patients, Brenda loved spending time with family, especially her grandchildren. She enjoyed cooking and was known among family for her delicious dinners that brought the entire family together. She also loved online shopping for her grandkids and children; the Amazon Prime boxes were constantly rolling in but the contents of those boxes were rarely for her. She also had a knack for avoiding photographs and most photographs our family has of her were taken while she wasn’t looking or after much insistence by family members. Brenda was a wonderful daughter, wife, mother and grandmother. She is preceded in death by her father, Robert Huffman and
grandson Robert Bryant. She is survived by her husband Terry Bryant; her mother, Majorie Huffman; her children: Cody Bryant and his wife Rebecca; Christopher Bryant and his wife Codie; and Jacqueline Bryant; grandchildren: Connor Bryant, Tara Bryant, Maxen Bryant, Gabrielle Bryant, and Isobella Bryant; siblings: Kathy Daniel, Debbie Cook, Lonnie Huffman, and Michael Huffman; and a host of nieces and nephews; and a rescue dog, Carter. Brenda was a member of First Baptist Church in Summersville, Missouri, and a faithful follower of Christ. Brenda was so many things to so many people: nurse, friend, daughter, wife, and mother. Words cannot accurately capture who she was as a person. She left an indelible mark on so many lives and will be forever missed. Funeral Services were held on Thursday, August 10, 2017 at 10 a.m. at Bradford Funeral Home Chapel with Rev. Jerry Baylock officiating. Visitation was held Wednesday evening, August 9, from 6 p.m. to 8 p.m. at Bradford Funeral Home. Interment will be in Bethel Cemetery under the care of Bradford Funeral Home.

Eagles compete at Jamboree, gear up for season by Brian Ingalls Sports Writer brian@mvstandard.com
The 2017 High School Football season has officially begun. Last Friday the Liberty Eagles had their final tune-up at the Jamboree in Mountain Grove, showing positive signs for a group that is replacing several key players from last season. The Eagles travel to Cape Girardeau on Friday for the season opener against Cape Central and are back home the following week to host Aurora. The latest edition of the Liberty Eagles has their work cut out for them. Jamborees are notoriously difficult to make any season predictions with, although blocking and tackling assignments are worked on and live action gives players a chance to get accustomed to the speed and adrenaline rush of a real game. Coaches keep the plays simple and Liberty coaches have traditionally used the same set of plays for years so as not to show their hand before
the regular season begins. This season, however, the competition level was higher as the Eagles traveled to Mountain Grove, and faced off against three teams that will contend for conference titles. The Eagles defense was solid for most of the scrimmages. The West Plains Zizzers took the field with a lot of size on the offensive and defensive lines and plenty of speed in the backfield on both sides of the ball. Early on the Zizzers made some gains and eventually scored against Liberty, but they never got close again. The Eagles JV defense was also constantly in the backfield disrupting the Mountain Grove JV team, and the scrimmage against Thayer was roughly even. Liberty’s offense, handicapped by keeping things vanilla, struggled against the defenses, but there were glimmers of real firepower. Liberty quarterback Jaris Acklin was inches away from connecting on a few deep passes against the Zizzers when Eagles re-
ceivers got past the defense. A very questionable holding penalty from officials took away a big run by Koel Orchard as he rounded the corner for a fifteen-yard gain against West Plains. All of this came against a Zizzer defense that is used to facing high powered offenses from Springfield high schools, including the allworld pass-happy attack of the Glendale Falcons. In the end, the Eagles may not have dominated, but they look to be solid. Liberty returns 16 starters from last season, one of the highest totals in the South Central Association. The offensive and defensive lines are largely intact from last year. Replacing All-State quarterback Josh Pruett, plus prolific wide-receiver Brenton Bush and 1000-yard rusher Marcos Rodriguez won’t be easy, but the Eagles have exciting potential. Jaris Acklin quarterbacks as a sophomore this season and has big targets throw to in Andrew Holden and Jackson Connor. Junior Colton Foster and sophomore Ethan Smith
add experience and speed at wide-receiver as well. Do-Everything Koel Orchard will be the player to watch every time he touches the ball. Last year he finished with 837 total yards and 14 touchdowns. Expect those numbers to get bigger. The rest of the SCA will present Liberty with a tough challenge, however. The Eagles players and coaches have a lot of respect for the Ava Bears who they scrimmaged in the summer camp at Evangel University. Ava has high expectations as they return enough size and talent to make them one of the favorites to win the SCA. Mountain Grove is always tough and they return three-year starter Carter Otwell at quarterback. Thayer also returns 16 starters including their top receiver. With three strong running backs and solid offensive line, they will be tough again. Liberty plays at Grove and at Thayer as well, making those games even more difficult. Salem finds themselves in Liberty’s position of having to replace key skill position play-
Expect to see this a lot - Koel Orchard rounds the corner against West Plains for a 15-yard gain against the Zizzers. Orchard finished with 837 total yards and 14 touchdowns last season, and will see action this year at running back, wide-receiver, and quarterback. The Eagles are hoping for big things.

ers, but Liberty coaches have told The Standard News that they expect Salem to be better than most people think. Houston is improving and Willow Springs along with Cabool are working hard as well. To go with the new faces, expect to see some new rules in high school football. The pop-up kick where the kicker drives the ball into the ground and pops it high into the air is now illegal. Contact is required for pass interference. A player is now allowed to wave his arms to block a receiver’s vision. Blindside blocks outside the free-blocking zone
will be penalized 15-yards. Finally, in a rule change that is sure to see controversial flags because the judgment call of officials, the definition of a defenseless player has been expanded. A defenseless player includes not only a player catching a pass, but a runner whose forward progress has been stopped and a quarterback who is in the act of throwing a pass. How all of this plays out will be seen in just a few days. The high school football season is here, and school begins Tuesday. Summer is officially in the books.

Community Psychiatric Rehabilitation Program receives donation of school supplies An anonymous donor has given $1,500 for school supplies to the children of the Community Psychiatric Rehabilitation Program (CPRP) at Ozarks Medical Center (OMC) Behavioral Healthcare (BHC). These supplies have been bundled into backpacks for CPRP children in OMC’s eight-county service area. OMC’s CPRP program provides an array of services to persons with severe, disabling mental illnesses. Services include evaluations, crisis intervention, community support, medication management, and psychosocial rehabilitation. This program emphasizes individual choices and needs and promotes independence and the pursuit of meaningful living, working, learning, and leisure-time activities in normal community settings. Each Community Support Specialist for the Children’s Team has approximately twenty children on their caseload and meets with them every week to work on spe-
cific needs identified in their assessment. They work on a treatment plan and address needs ranging from increasing coping skills, improving self-esteem, managing anxiety, becoming more organized, increasing respectful communication, attending appointments, taking medications, understanding their diagnosis, and getting along better with their family and friends. There are approximately two hundred children served at any given time. CPRP takes a whole-team approach, which includes the psychiatrist, nurse, Community Support Specialist, Health Care Home Nurse, therapist, and the CPRP Supervisor. Patients also have access to a crisis line 24 hours a day, if needed. “We hope these backpacks can go to good use as the children may not otherwise have access to obtain or afford these items,” said Myriah Wallace, OMC’s CPRP supervisor. “We are more than grateful to our donor for allowing us to provide for our children this year. We have never been able to do this before. We gave a nice backpack with supplies to one child and his guardian the other day. He wore it throughout his entire time at BHC, and she thanked us over and over.” Children are referred to the program and must meet qualifications set forth by the Department of Mental Health. If you know someone who might benefit from confidential one-on-one support services, please contact the Request for Services Department at 417-257-5976.

Low-Cost Wireless Plans for Seniors Who Use Smartphones Dear Savvy Senior, I’m interested in downsizing my smartphone wireless plan, and am looking for the best low cost options. I use my phone primarily for talking and texting, but also need some cellular data for checking my email and other functions when I’m away from WiFi. What can you tell me? Senior Saver Dear Saver, There are several great lowcost deals I can recommend for older smartphone users who are looking to save some money by paring down their bloated cell phone plan. Here are three good options to consider. Republic Wireless If you’re an Android smartphone user, Republic Wireless (RepublicWireless.com) offers one of the cheapest deals available for light data users. Republic uses a mixture of Wi-Fi and cellular networks – Sprint and T-Mobile specifically – to transmit calls, texts and data. This patented technology automatically offloads as much as possible to WiFi when available, so you’ll consume less data than you would with traditional carriers. Republic’s no contract service plans with cellular data start at only $20 per month for unlimited talk, text and 1 gigabyte (GB) of data. If you need more data, their $30 per month plan gets you 2GB, and $45/ month buys you 4GB. How much data do you need? The best way to find out is to check your current phone bills. The average smartphone owner uses between 2GB to 3GB of data each month, but most older smartphone users use less than 1GB.
To use Republic you’ll need a compatible Android phone (you can’t currently use Apple iPhones), or you can buy a new phone through the company. It currently offers eight Android phones with prices starting at $99. Consumer Cellular Another excellent low-cost option for lighter data users, and one that caters to older adults is Consumer Cellular (ConsumerCellular.com, 888532-5366). Rated the number one wireless service by Consumer Reports seven years running, Consumer Cellular offers a variety of “pay for what you need” talk and connect plans that let’s you choose exactly what you want. Their talk plans start at $10 per month plus 25 cents per minute used for infrequent callers, or $15/month for 250 minutes, $20/month for 1,500 minutes, and $30/month for unlimited minutes. And their connect plans for text messages and cellular data run $2.50 per month for 300 texts and 30 megabytes (MB) of data, $5/month for 2,000 text and 200MB data, $10/month for unlimited texts and 500MB, $20/month for unlimited texts and 1.5GB, $30/month unlimited texts and 3GB, and $40/month for unlimited texts and 5GB. Consumer Cellular, which offers 5 percent monthly fee discounts to AARP members, also lets you bring your own smartphone by offering free SIM cards. Or, you can purchase a wide variety of Android and Apple iPhones along with the senior-friendly Doro 824 SmartEasy for $100. Lifeline Program If your income is low enough, another option to check into is the Lifeline Assistance Program. This is a federal program that provides a $9.25 monthly subsidy that could go towards your smartphone service. To qualify, you’ll need to show that your annual household income is at or below 135 percent of the Federal Poverty Guidelines – which is $16,281 for one person, or $21,924 for two. Or, that you’re receiving certain types of government benefits, such as Medicaid, food stamps, SSI, public housing assistance, veterans pension or survivor’s pension benefit, or live on federally recognized Tribal lands.

MDC works with partners to open multi-use trails at Gist Ranch CA The multi-use trails will welcome horseback riders, bicyclists and hikers The Missouri Department of Conservation (MDC), Back Country Horsemen of Missouri (BCHMO), and the Summersville Saddle Club announce the opening of nearly 12 miles of multiuse trails located on the Gist Ranch Conservation Area (CA). Gist Ranch is located in Texas County just northwest of Sum-
mersville off Highway 17. Travis Mills, Resource Forester with MDC, and his work team spent time the past year enhancing an existing trail network as multi-use trails. “We are happy to provide this recreational opportunity to a wide group of the public including horseback riders, bicyclists, and hikers,” Mills said.
MDC welcomes volunteers help to maintain the trails on an ongoing basis. A partnership has been developed between the Summersville Saddle Club and MDC for ongoing maintenance of the trails. Ronnie Harper, president of the Saddle Club, says the club is looking forward to a lasting relationship with MDC and that they will ap-
preciate the opportunity to have trails close to home. “I’m pleased to see these multi-use trails developed, and to have played a part with getting these organizations together to create a long-term partnership,” said John Turner, a representative of BCHMO.

Update on facilities and flood recovery progress at Ozark Riverways Many areas at Ozark National Scenic Riverways have been reopened following the historic flood that swept through the region at the end of April and early May. While a remarkable amount has been accomplished since that time, there are still some areas that remain partially or totally closed, and others that are open with reduced amenities and services. The National Park Service (NPS) is continuing to move forward with repairs and recovery at those areas, while evaluating facilities and services for sustainability in the future. As part of the ongoing recovery efforts, the NPS is undertaking an Integrated Park Improvement (IPI) planning process that will evaluate flood impacts parkwide and develop a strategy for restoring facilities and services in a manner that is more sustainable in a river corridor. This process is expected to take at least eight months. “If anything good can come from such a devastating flood, it provides us with the opportunity to re-think which facilities can be re-located outside
the flood zone. We know that funding won’t be available to keep replacing or repairing facilities damaged or destroyed by recurrent flooding. The IPI process will help us move to a more sustainable operation while providing for visitor needs,” said Superintendent Larry Johnson. An update on the current status and anticipated repairs for facilities and operations for impacted areas is listed below. Lower Current River area: • The Big Spring Dining Lodge and Cabins have been closed since the fall of 2014 in preparation for extensive rehabilitation and restoration. In the fall of 2017 work will begin to replace the electrical and sewer utility systems, and move all electrical lines underground. Restoration work on the lodge and cabins is currently planned to begin in 2020, with planning and environmental compliance to be done in 2019. “We had originally planned to repair the crucial life, health, and safety issues of the lodge and cabins with the intent to reopen them while the major renovations
could be done. However, the flood damage is too extensive to allow for that. Therefore, the facilities will remain closed while the major renovation work is completed, and the lodge and cabins will reopen after that work is done,” Johnson said. • Replacement of the Big Spring bridge will begin in the fall of 2017 and is expected to take approximately one year for completion. While the bridge is closed during construction, visitors will still be able to reach Big Spring, the boat ramp, and campground via Peavine Road. • Big Spring and Peavine pavilions: Both pavilions were destroyed in the flood, and the flood debris was recently removed from the sites. The concrete slabs remain intact at both pavilions, and picnic tables have been placed on them for gatherings and picnics. At the Big Spring pavilion, restrooms are available nearby, water is available at the pavilion, and the grill will be replaced very soon. At the Peavine pavilion, a grill is available, but there is no restroom or water at the site. Currently both pavilion sites are available first-come, firstworkshop is $15.00 cash or served, but may be available check and is open to Howell in the future for reservation at county and surrounding coun- a reduced fee at www.recreties.

and river access: This area sustained extensive damage. The campground will remain closed for the remainder of 2017. The river landing is scheduled to be open by mid-August, but the restroom facility will likely be unavailable due to the absence of electrical service. The campground is tentatively slated to reopen in 2018, but that will be dependent on completion of road work in the campground, and the availability of electricity and a restroom facility. • Goose Bay and Martin Bluff campsites: Currently the Goose Bay campsites are open. Due to extensive damage to the access road and campsite at Martin Bluff, future use of that area is being evaluated. • Two Rivers Campground: The Two Rivers concession store will be replaced with a temporary mobile office building in the fall of 2017. One of the primitive campsites along the river is expected to reopen in mid-August. Upper Current River: • Pulltite Visitor Center was heavily damaged and has been closed this summer. Repair work is expected to begin over the winter, with reopening tentatively expected by Memorial Day 2018.

ing rates and online reservation system were restored on July 28. Work to repair the existing damaged restroom buildings throughout the campground is expected to begin in the fall of 2017, with anticipated completion before Memorial Day 2018. • Alley Spring and Mill area: Due to the damage to the utilities, it may be some time before the flush toilet facilities can be reopened. No estimated reopening date for the restroom is known. Portable toilets are available near the parking lots. • Harvey’s Alley Spring Canoe Rental concession store is scheduled for repairs beginning in the fall of 2017. • Shawnee Creek Campground: This backcountry camping area is currently open, but the restroom at the site is closed due to flood damage. Currently, no camping fee is being charged at this area. In 2018, the restroom at Shawnee Creek Campground will be replaced with a new durable concrete vault toilet, designed for use in flood prone areas. • Designated horse trails: The trails are still being surveyed and opened with assistance from trail volunteers. The Two Rivers, Shawnee and Broadfoot loops have been assessed and many areas have been cleared. The Jerktail Loop is still heavily impacted by flood debris, and will be assessed and opened in the next couple of months.
