Arborfest Includes Inaugural Mud Run BY KAREN BOSSICK
L
et’s not muddy things here. There’s going to be a criteriumstyle mud run—and crawl— through thick, gunky mud this coming Saturday. It’s a chance for kids and adults alike (sorry, pigs) to get down and dirty. And it’s free. It’s the Inaugural Arborfest Mud Run and it will be held between 12:30 and 1:30 p.m. Saturday in Hop Porter Park. It’s part of Hailey’s inaugural “Trees, Community Earth and Art” Arborfest Festival, which will run from 10 a.m. to 3 p.m. with free tree seedlings, advice from arborists, a visit from Smokey Bear, a bouncy forest, art displays, food and beverages and musical performances led by R.L. Rowsey. And it will kick off at 10 a.m. with a “Right Trees, Right Place” presentation by Craig Westling. The object of the mud fest itself is to negotiate hay bales, wall climbs and maybe even “swim” through a few feet of mud—all for glory, a free beverage and an awesome T-shirt. There are five categories: kids 10 through 13, kids 14 through 17, solo male and female recreational and solo male and female competitive, and four-person coed teams. Registration will be held from 3 to 6 p.m. Friday at the Hailey City Hall meeting room and from 10 a.m. to noon Saturday at the park. Participants under age 18 must have an adult sign a waiver. There will be no race entry fees this year. But in future years entry fees will be charged, with the proceeds going to the Hailey Tree Committee, whose mission is to promote sound arboricultural practices and tree diversity. In the future, organizers hope to hand out awards, including the Dirty Business Trophy for the fastest business team. Competitors are encouraged to wear comfy old clothes, such as sweatpants, long johns or running tights that will offer protection against cuts and bruises. Shoes with traction will help racers negotiate the mud. Creative team costumes are encouraged. Competitors are also encouraged to discard glasses, rings, earrings and other jewelry that could get lost. Contacts may be a problem, as well, if mud gets in your eyes. There will be an outdoor shower to wash off the gunk, and changing tents. Participants can immortalize their fling with photos available for purchase from Flolo’s Imaging Center in Hailey (flolos@qwestoffice.net). For more information, call 7883434. To volunteer, email info@haileycityhall.org

Reception Saturday for Hemingway Art Show STORY & PHOTOS BY KAREN BOSSICK
J
oan “Muffet” Hemingway, the eldest daughter of Jack Hemingway, is showing a couple dozen pieces of her artwork through the month of June at the Coffee Grinder & Gallery in Ketchum. Coffee Grinder owner Nicola Potts is holding a reception celebrating the Joan “Muffet” Hemingway Spring Art Show from 5 to 7 p.m. Saturday at the iconic coffee shop located at Fourth and Leadville streets. Hemingway grew up in Ketchum where her father was a well-known fisherman who helped preserve Silver Creek. She was a regular customer at he Coffee Grinder & Gallery where she used to make daily sojourns for a latté and scone dating back to 1976. “She was always an artist and a fashionista, too,” said Potts. “She studied fashion and she was always wearing the latest.” Part of the proceeds from sales of artwork will go to Wild Gift, a Ketchum-based program that supports young social entrepreneurs who create sustainable living projects. One Wild Gift recipient, for instance, renovated a historic grange to provide a
space for local farmers and artisans to sell goods. Hemingway will also use part of the proceeds to benefit an anonymous charity of her choice. Hemingway’s works add a touch of spring to Ketchum’s homey little coffee shop as the snow recedes from the mountains surrounding Sun Valley. Her pastel pink and green floral works are simple yet profound. One, for instance, depicts flowers comprised of big bold strokes with simple round circles on top. Other works are taken from about 30 portraits that she did of “Papa” Hemingway, the grandfather who often entertained Joan on his knee during her early years. A few of the portraits of her grandfather feature the acclaimed author of “The Old Man and The Sea” with fish in hand. Another shows him in the beret he wore while in Spain during the Spanish Civil War. Others are of a dog, an angel, even Jesus. Hemingway, now 61, lives a “very happy, very private life” in Idaho, said Potts. “I thought this art show would be a way for Muffet to connect with the community,” she added.
“I hope that anyone who’s known her or anyone who just enjoys her art will sign a little guest book that I have here.” –Nicola Potts
“I hope that anyone who’s known her or anyone who just enjoys her art will sign a little guest book that I have here.” “This artwork is a way for her to express herself,” Potts said. “And it really shows what a bright space she’s in. I especially love her self-portrait. I can see her face in it.” tws
Boise Master Chorale to Feature Local Singers STORY BY KAREN BOSSICK
F
our local singers will perform Saturday and Sunday with the Boise Philharmonic Master Chorale. Tim Eagan, Dick Brightman, Dawson Howard and Paul Stoops—all members of the new local men’s group, A Few Good Men—will perform with the chorale as it sings Gustav Mahler’s “Symphony No. 2 in C Minor (Resurrection)” 2 at 8 p.m. Saturday and 2 p.m. Sunday at the Morrison Center on the Boise State University campus. The concert will feature soprano Leslie Mauldin, the sister of Sun Valley Resort’s Entertainment Director John Mauldin, mezzo-soprano Michele Detwiler and the Boise Philharmonic.
The Boise Philharmonic Master Chorale is an auditioned chorus of more than 100 singers. The chorale was founded in 1975. “They’re very good singers. You have to have the vocals since it’s an audition-only chorus,” said Eagan. Eagan added that Mahler’s Second is “spectacular.” “This will be my fourth time singing it,” he said. “I sang it with the Utah Symphony when I lived in Salt Lake City for eight years. And I sang it with the Syracuse Oratorio Society. The chorus only sings for the last 15 minutes, but we get all the glory.” For tickets go to www.boisephilharmonic.org tws
briefs Songs of Sanctuary this Friday, Saturday Wood River High School women’s choir Carmina Montis will perform “Songs of Sanctuary: Adiemus,” by the celebrated English composer Karl Jenkins at 7 p.m. Friday and Saturday in the newly remodeled Wood River High School Performing Arts Theater at the Community Campus. The work is about 50 minutes long, and was composed for choir, string orchestra, and percussion. The concert is free, but donations will be welcomed at the door to offset the costs of this production. The collaborative performance includes the WRHS string orchestra, rehearsed by orchestra-instructor Rebecca Martin. Max Stimac conducts
the performance, and has rehearsed the 65 hard-working members of Carmina Montis since last fall. The innovative choreography is by director/choreographer/performer Sarah Gorby. Both Carmina Montis and the WRHS orchestra won gold for their performances at the Heritage Music Festival in Anaheim, Calif., in April. This production was chosen in part to test the limits of the new lighting and sound equipment in the new performance space. Lighting and sound design are being handled by John Glenn of the Company of Fools and Ted Macklin of Ted Macklin Sound.

lack Jack has heard all the good stories—from “Charlotte’s Web” to Shel Silverstein’s “The Giving Tree.” It doesn’t bother him when a student mispronounces a word. Nor does he wince when a student stumbles through a sentence. He’s just happy to be with the kids, and the kids are more than happy to read to this black and white Sheltie. “When kids read aloud in class, often the teacher is saying, ‘Say it this way.’ ‘No, it’s like this.’ You have to get used to teachers saying you got this wrong and that wrong. A dog won’t judge you, so it makes reading fun and relaxed,” said Elena Guylay, Black Jack’s handler. Guylay, an 11-year-old fifthgrader at The Community School, decided to get Black Jack certified as a therapy dog after attending a reading therapy presentation using therapy dogs at a library in Chicago where she used to live. “It was really fun. And it made me feel relaxed and it made me feel happy. I’ve always been a good reader but I figured that if I enjoyed it so much that other kids would, too. I decided that Black Jack was so nice—he’s never bitten anyone—that I’d give it a try,” she said. Guylay enrolled Black Jack, now 4, in an obedience course offered by Therapy Dogs International. She got Black Jack comfortable around wheelchairs—one of the requirements of the course since many therapy dogs go to
hospitals—by walking him next to her bicycle. She trained him to leave a microwaved hotdog on the floor by saying “Leave it” with the help of treats. Finally, she took him through a battery of tests that measured his comfort level around people. “One of the hardest things was when someone dropped a book on the floor—it scared him,” Guylay said. Following graduation, Black Jack began visiting The Community School for 10-minute reading sessions with individual students. He has visited with all the students in the kindergarten and second-grade classes and was involved with the elementary school’s month-long read-a-thon. He’s now enjoying reading sessions with fourth-graders. On one recent afternoon Mikel Sanchez DuPont plopped down on a couch next to Black Jack and explained to the dog what his book was about before he began reading where he had left off. “This is cool,” he said. “My dog would just get up and walk away.” Janet Salvoni, a fourth-grade teacher at The Community School, said the kids enjoy reading to Black Jack. “It’s a great program. It makes them feel more relaxed as they read out loud. And it improves their reading skills,” she said. Kathryn Guylay—Elena’s Mom—says the job suits Black Jack just fine: “He’s not a real active dog so doing something where he can sit and veg out is perfect.”

Pet Therapy Training Program Returns to Wood River Valley St. Luke’s Wood River Pet Therapy Program is looking for trained volunteers to provide a unique aspect of patient care. Therapy dogs are personal pets that meet certain requirements of good manners and good health, and pass testing and evaluations. The dog/handler team must be registered by Therapy Dogs, Inc., a non-profit national organization that provides registration for members who are involved in volunteer animal-assisted activities. The Therapy Dogs, Inc., testers and observers will be conducting several tests, beginning with basic control at Rotary Park in Ketchum on May 19 at 11 a.m. In addition, there are a series of three observations of dog and handler at Blaine Manor in Hailey on May 20, June 2 and June 3. Once these visits are completed, participants will be a registered team with Therapy Dogs, Inc. “The pet therapy program at St. Luke’s recognizes the healing power of pets,” said Linda Peterson, volunteer Pet Therapy program coordinator. Peterson further went on to say, “Patient interaction with animals provides so many positive physical and emotional benefits, including lowering blood pressure, decreasing heart rate and anxiety and reducing stress.” Other pet therapy opportunities in the Valley include the Blaine County Schools Reading Tails program, The Community Library Children’s Saturdays, and visitations to Blaine Manor. The paperwork you need to bring is located on the Therapy Dogs website, www.therapydogs.com. The application must be signed by your vet in advance. To register or for more information call Linda at 725-5560.

ou might have thought Todd Peebler’s story was bad enough as he emerged from three days trudging through the deep snow, soaking wet and in a diabetic funk. (See “Beating the Odds” in The Weekly Sun’s April 18 issue). But it could have been worse. A couple of different parties found a bloodied elk carcass at the bottom of Trail Creek Road a day after Peebler emerged from his ordeal. One person ventured that it had been killed by a wolf pack based on howls heard the night before.
And Maria Corbit, the pet nanny who found Peebler and called 911, said that she saw a bunch of wolf tracks near Peebler’s as she walked up the road retracing Peebler’s steps. “Maria told me that there was something following and/or stalking me in the woods as she said she saw a bunch of wolf tracks near mine,” Peebler said. “Pretty amazing, as I did not see a wolf or at least I cannot remember seeing any animals other than Lola. I am sure the wolves were smelling her and wanted to pounce on her if given the opportunity.” tws

The Great 50 Days of Easter concert series will conclude with a recital by bass/baritone Dick Brightman and pianist Dave Tacher at 2 p.m. Sunday, May 27. They will perform music from the late 19th and early 20th centuries, also known as “music of the Belle Epoque”—French for “Beautiful Era.” The music reflected a time from 1890 to the beginning of World War I in 1914 when all seemed right with the world and new scientific discoveries were being made daily. The era was known as the Gilded Age in America. Admission to all four concerts is free; however, donations will be accepted to help pay for the music and other associated costs.

Teacher Wins First Round of Battle of the Blades STORY & PHOTO BY KAREN BOSSICK
Todd Peebler and Lola, a miniature pinscher, survived three days trudging through deep snow on Trail Creek Road after his car became stuck in a snow bank on top of Trail Creek Summit. It could have been worse, though, judging by an elk kill that occurred shortly after Peebler walked to safety.

He recently composed a second one paying homage to the Nez Perce people who saved the white explorers from what would have been almost-sure death. The Chorale will perform that one July 14 and 15 in the Wood River Valley after premiering it on the Nez Perce reservation in northern Idaho. The concert is sponsored jointly by the Barry Keller Fund and the Sun Valley Artists Series, which hosts a series of classical winter concerts. It will be preceded by a master class for area string students. Brown will also give a short talk at the concert.

He walks the walk by being a part of Idaho DrugFree Youth which he joined his sophomore year. “I’m an athlete and there’s just no point in doing drugs,� Bailey said. “I’m going to college for sports—why would I want to ruin that opportunity?� He is also one of two students who take part in the Idaho Drug Coalition, which funds Idaho Drug-Free Youth. “There are 20 active members and it includes representatives from the police force, the hospital, students and other members of the community. We meet once a month to plan activities and create fundraising projects like the annual road rally. The goal is to create a drug-free community and we have really raised a lot of money.� Part funds the Idaho Drug-Free Youth and there are about 25 members from the high school. “When I joined I didn’t know what to expect, but I love it especially because we get to go to a lot of cool events and conferences and retreats. To join, you must pledge to be drug free and when we meet every month
we pull names from a hat for a random drug test. At our meetings we plan events that are our reward for being drug and alcohol free.� Bailey added, “We have done some incredible stuff like recently going to Salt Lake City to see a Utah Jazz pro basketball game and we stayed overnight in Salt Lake. Eight kids went last year to Yellowstone for a week adventure. We also got to go to Washington, D.C., for a national conference. All these things are paid for by the Idaho Drug Coalition.� Recently they staged an event that caused quite a reaction. With a national sponsor they created a ‘drug house’ where they recreated a party with teenagers and parents had the opportunity to walk through the house and experience what their children might be up to when they are on their own. There were five tours of parents through the house with the kids enacting scenes involving drug use and alcohol. The party touched on other subjects, like Internet predators. “The tour would start in the kitchen where we enacted drinking games and then would proceed through the house. In one dark room girls talked about being sexually assaulted and that really hit the hardest. Everything was scripted. There

was loud music being played throughout the house and there was a keg on the front lawn. All the actors were members of Drug-Free Youth and some were from Blaine County Tech. When it was done, the parents congregated in the garage for a discussion with the facilitator. We were really blown away by the parents’ reactions. In every tour someone would leave in tears.� At Wood River, Bailey is a National Honor Society member where he has to maintain a 3.5 grade point average as well as put in community service hours with things like raising money
for the Drug Coalition. He also participates in three varsity sports – wrestling, quarterback on the football team, and lacrosse. “I love Wood River but I wish more of the kids were involved with sports. We’re a 4A school but we have to compete with much larger schools, which makes it hard to compete, but we’ve been doing really well in football and wrestling.� Bailey wrestles at 145 pounds and this year he had the impressive distinction of finishing fourth statewide. His dad has been his biggest influence as he had wrestled at Indiana University
“It’s a team sport but it’s also individual. When you win, you’re ecstatic because you put so much work into training and watching your weight.� –Tommy bailey
and then coached at a high level. “This year our team was 15-5 and my own personal record was 35-7. In the state tournament I would have five matches in a day. But I love wrestling. It’s not like any other sport. It’s a team sport but it’s also individual. When you win, you’re ecstatic because you put so much work into training and watching your weight. It’s just the most satisfytws ing thing in the world.�

Wood River High School student Tehina Santiago was crowned one of the top speech makers at the 2012 Hispanic Youth Symposium held Friday through Sunday at Sun Valley Resort. More than 300 students from high schools as far away as Post Falls and Lewiston gathered to meet with representatives of 15 colleges, participate in fun runs, art shows and talent contests, and take part in workshops on such topics as “The Good, the Bad and the Ugly� of social networking. “Your voice is your power. Stand your ground. Speak your mind,� motivational speaker Carlos Ojeda, Jr., encouraged them. The Idaho National Laboratory started the symposium 22 years ago. Since then, schools have awarded millions of dollars in scholarships to attendees and the program has served as a prototype for similar programs across the country, said conference spokesperson Sarah Robertson.

The other divide is the hydrographic divide of the Gros Ventre Mountains. To its south is the Green River basin that joins with the Colorado River. To its north, the Gros Ventre River joins the Snake River drainage. Here, they do have to cross a 9,100-foot pass. The spring journey is rigorous enough so that some of the animals do not survive it. There is the everpresent larger danger that this route will be blocked by various forms of development (subdivisions and drilling), which will trap the pronghorn and likely eradicate them from Jackson. As it is, their numbers have ceased to increase. These gaming trails are used by deer, elk, wolves, coyotes, mountain lions and bears as well. Protecting the pronghorn’s habitat also protects the sage grouse because the antelope is a ‘sagebrush obligate,’ adapted to that environment. The journey north starts when the snow is too wet for snowmobiles but still too deep for ATVs, making the trip difficult to witness. It takes a month,

Gardening Crimes
W
e’d all be in jail if gardening crimes were punishable by law. Here are some to avoid: Drowning by Good Intention: Ecology aside, your plants won’t benefit from too much water or fertilizer. Judicious application results in deeper roots and stronger stems; also fewer weeds. Plasticide: Avoid cheap tools, thin plastic planters, and cheesy lawn ornaments that won’t last one season. Try your hand at yard art or stepping stones from repurposed materials. Buy yard art from a local artist. Ornamental Planticide: If our dead ornamentals were weighed against us, most gardeners would be serving time. Question nurseries before buying plants with hardiness zones larger than 3. Some will thrive in carefully chosen microclimates, some are annuals only, but some are perennials that won’t survive our winters. For selections, ask friends to share divisions of favorite perennials. For shrubs and trees, look around to see what works. If growing plants from seeds, check the “days to maturity� on the package. It’s simple math: 90 days to maturity in a 63-day growing season (for Hailey) equals “ain’t gonna happen� (unless you start them indoors). Insecticide: Our cold climate means less pests. Treat infestations specifically (and organically, if possible). Most bugs are good ones. Herbicide: Weeding isn’t just ornamental, it is essential; once seeds form, the situation worsens quickly. Organic solutions like acetic acid or torching do work, but for a desperado plant felon (like field bindweed), dab herbicide with a brush. Please don’t spray! tws This season, get out in the yard, but don’t hurt the garden! Have a question, or want to write your own ERCbeat?

though technically it could take a lot less time because when these animals move, they move fast. Their route crosses Route 189 and follows the Green River toward Cora and then turns northwest into the Gros Ventre Wilderness Area. Many of the does are pregnant with twins, and breaking trail in deep snow takes energy. Typically, a doe will lead, break an uphill trail, then return with the group to lower ground to camp and rest. Pronghorns spend 95 percent of their time staying put in these motel/truck stops and only travel 5 percent of the time. The migration is methodical. They line up and head out, following each other closely, like a group of well-behaved school children on an outing. I’ll be happy to see them again in the sagebrush flats along the road to Kelly. (For a more detailed account of this migration, see the excellent Dec. 26, 2011 issue of High Country News-hcn.org). tws

you must plant in a windy area, protect the plants with a windbreak. Some authorities recommend planting brambles in rows running north and south to provide even exposure to sunlight on both sides of the row. Before planting, eliminate all perennial weeds, such as quackgrass and Canada thistle. These highly invasive weeds can quickly choke out a bramble patch. Brambles benefit from compost or well-rotted manure added to the soil before planting. A soil test before planting can help identify potential problems with soil acidity and nutrients. Preparing the planting bed the preceding fall allows for easier and earlier spring planting.

aspberries and blackberries have similar growing requirements. Usually they grow best in full sun on a well-drained, slightly acid to neutral soil that has a pH of 5.6 to 7.0. Brambles are shallow-rooted, with about 90 percent of the roots lying in the top 20 inches of soil. Avoid planting into a poorly drained location. Red raspberries, in particular, are susceptible to root rot and cannot tolerate standing water or poor drainage. On poorly drained sites, plant raspberries in raised beds that are 6 to12 inches above the surrounding soil. Raised beds in small gardens can be enclosed with wooden timbers or stones. Besides being intolerant of wet soils, brambles are susceptible to a disease called verticillium wilt. Peppers, tomatoes, potatoes, eggplant and other small fruits and vegetables are also hosts for this disease. Whenever possible, do not plant brambles next to these crops or in locations where they have been grown within the past five years. Select a site that receives full sun exposure and is not in a frost pocket. Plant where the bushes have good air drainage (this helps prevent diseases), but avoid windy sites, if possible. If

ellowstone National Park has often been called America’s Serengeti, though it differs markedly from its East African cousin in that animal migration is at a minimum here in the U.S. We all know what happens to elk, wolves, bear and bison once they leave the island confines of the Park. Even when our larger mammals don’t migrate in herds, they still require a lot of room to roam. A wolverine can cover 700 square miles of territory. The proposed Yukon to Yellowstone migration corridor is a work in progress. Sustainable species numbers will depend on our willingness and ability to set aside room for them. The longest migratory land animal route in the U.S. is right here in our neck of the woods. It extends from the Yellowstone ecosystem, specifically the Gros Ventre River benches near Jackson, Wyo., all the way to Rock Springs. This 150-mile corridor has become known as the Path of the Pronghorn. Most years these speedsters (about 400 or so) avoid the snows of the Tetons and head south to the Pinedale area to their winter range, rubbing elbows with the roughnecks working the oil and gas boom of the Pinedale anticline. (The town derives its name from the evergreens that used to line its main street). Right about now, the pronghorns start to look north and head back to Jackson, their breeding ground. This area has two divides. The Bridger-Teton National Forest contains the Continental Divide, straddled by the 13,800-foot Mt. Gannett of the Wind River Range, Wyoming’s highest peak. The pronghorns don’t have to navigate this formidable range.

Did you know that ladybugs defend themselves with their red color, which means danger to other bugs? Did you know that daddy-longlegs have eight eyes? You’d know all this and more if you had stopped into the Sawtooth Botanical Garden’s annual Bug Zoo this past week. The popular event features 25 exotic insects, along with plenty of hands-on activities to give kids and other humans a better grasp of what a bug’s life is like. “The students in our school love every living creature and they’re fascinated by bugs,� said Katharine Woods, who heads up The Mountain School.

his is the start of a new bi-monthly suggested reading column. I hope that everyone will find it useful for their future book-reading entertainment and might inspire non-book readers to pick up a book. So, since this is a column about books, I chose a book that deals with books and libraries and ends with faith and hope. So let the fun begin—go for it—read them—and send me a comment at margot6@mindspring.com. Dewey: The Small Town Library Cat Who Touched The World, by Bret Witter and Vicki Myron (304 pages/2010). This “Dewey Readmore Books� tale is an adorable, heartwarming story about a ditched kitten who, on a freezing cold night, was thrown into the town’s library book repository, and the path that follows, including the library directress who finds the kitten, the town that almost died, the state, the country and then the outer world. It’s a “love letter to libraries� and a book of trials, tribulations and successes in all respects. In the midst of a recession, where many in the small town had lost hope, along comes Dewey to bring some joy to the town and the reader. What a testament to the power of animals and the effect they have on our lives. Even if you are not a cat lover, you will love this book. tws

est district—12. Proficient with a bow and arrow that she uses to hunt squirrels to feed her family, she is a survivalist of the highest order and, as the audience hopes, the winner. In a long prologue to the games, the anxiety is really racheted up as the fate of the combatants hangs overhead. Lawrence’s performance is the key to the success of the film and with her stoic resolve she has created a new role model for all young women. The Hunger Games lives and the sequels should also produce record-setting business. tws

he Hunger Games is a phenomenon. The book, part of a trilogy written by Suzanne Collins, has sold a ton of copies and the opening weekend of the film set box office records, mostly because of the novel’s appeal to young adults. Having not read the books, or being a young adult, I’m a little at a disadvantage. That being the case, The Hunger Games is a good movie for anyone of any age. I’m told that the novels are incredibly violent, but to achieve a PG rating, that aspect of the story has been calmed down. But
the film packs enough of it to tell its tale in an admirable way. The story is basically sci-fi, set in the future, but giving us a chance to look at our own time and place. North America has been split into 12 districts with a decadent capital city. As punishment for a past uprising, the country has for the past 75 years run a reality Survivor-type game where instead of being kicked off the island by a tribal council, you are killed. In what is called a reaping, two children, age 12-16, are selected to fight to the death with only one winner. Like Lord of the Flies, the battle for survival of children left to their own devices can be a tough path. At the heart of the picture is a tremendous performance from Jennifer Lawrence, who was nominated for an academy award for her work in Winter’s Bone. Lawrence plays the movie’s heroine and heart and soul as the female chosen from the poor-

Spirit n’ Motion at State Meet STORY & PHOTOS BY AMANDA NORTON
S
pirit n’ Motion Athletic School just completed their first season of competitive gymnastics in a state tournament at Boise State University. All of their Level 4’s qualified for state this year and did their best with their personal highest scores of the season. Adelle Martin was the state champion in her division for
vault with a score of 9.40, and also took fifth place on floor and fifth place all-around. Tyler Beck took third on parallel bars, and fifth all-around in his division of 10-11 year old boys. Alaylia Norton got fourth on floor and fifth on vault. Evathea Drougas took sixth all-around with sixth in each event. In addition, the Spirit n’ Motion All-Star Cheerleaders (formerly Soldier Mountain AllStars) teams competed at the
American Championship Nationals in Salt Lake City in March. All three teams did their best ever and hit all their difficult stunts and tumbling in their 2.5-minute routines. The Black Diamonds only lost by one point, and the Silver Stars took first place in the Junior Level 1 division. The Green Emeralds tiny team (3-5 years old) also did an amazing job.

Master herbalist and aromatherapist David Crow, one of the world’s foremost experts in botanical medicine, educated about two dozen health practitioners on the use of essential oils distilled from exotic plants around the world for such purposes as stopping cold viruses in their tracks. Most people could drop the majority of their prescriptions if they became attuned to plant-based medicine, Crow said. The three-day workshop was presented by the Sun Valley Wellness Institute as part of its new mission to offer wellness workshops throughout the year. Next up: the Sun Valley Wellness Festival May 24 through 29 at Sun Valley Resort.

Spring Is Time for Renewal and Growth BY CONNIE LOVE
S
pring is a great time of year to look deeper into your own growth and beliefs. Our belief systems about ourselves usually are formed before the age of five, and these beliefs come from what people have told us. Most of these messages really have nothing to do with who we truly are. Nevertheless, because of the emotional connections with the people closest to us in early childhood, these preschool beliefs often become the world we live by. If you want to change these beliefs, listen to yourself. What do you say to yourself in the morning when you are selecting your clothes for the day or brushing your teeth? What’s happening in your life? Do you have the right information or support you need? Most importantly, how are you measuring success? You might want to start your day by saying to yourself,
“Abundance flows into my life in surprising and miraculous ways every day. Every time I turn around, there’s a check in the mail, either literally or figuratively.� Affirmation plus action equals miracles, and you have to act as if this has already happened. You have to maintain a connection to what is true; don’t have people feel your desperation. When you love yourself, you learn to love humanity.  You have to care about yourself more, and the voices in your head need to tell you that there is “only brightness in my future.� You deserve to be at peace in your life and find your true self.  Remember, you become what you believe.  To find your purpose, pay attention to the life you are leading now. Learn to be still and listen, knowing that you deserve and are worthy of a better life.  If you can see it, you can believe it. Then let go and move forward to the life you deserve.  If you

cannot find a way to believe what is really true about yourself, you cannot live your fullest life.  We all have gifts to offer the planet. Remain open to the possibilities, and don’t give up. Believe in yourself, and you will become the person you want to be. tws

Reality Party Presents Sobering Picture STORY & PHOTO BY KAREN BOSSICK
L
oud music assaulted the parentsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; eardrums even before their tour guide Chase Hutchinson opened the door of the ranch-style home in Hailey. Their faces turned ashen as they viewed the scene inside. Several teens stood around the kitchen island cheering another teen on as he guzzled liquor through a beer bong made out of a tube and funnel. Others played a game of â&#x20AC;&#x153;High and Low,â&#x20AC;? with the loser downing a shot. In the dining room, teens played beer pong, downing a shot each time the other team dropped a ball in one of their cups. On the back porch, a couple of boys held another boy upside down over a keg as others pumped beer into him. And in a darkened bedroom in the back of the house, other teens lamented what their alcohol-induced state might have led to. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I really donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t want to know what happened,â&#x20AC;? moaned one teenage girl. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I said, â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;No,â&#x20AC;&#x2122; â&#x20AC;? muttered another. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I wanted to use protection, but I guess I was so drunk I couldnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t,â&#x20AC;? added a boy. These kids will get another chance, as this was a Reality Party staged for parents and not the real deal. But the sobering look at teen parties, complete with the 35year-old who trolled for underage girls on Facebook and the police officer who issued a citation to the homeowner for hosting an under-age drinking party, was
scripted by kids in Ventura, Calif., based on real parties theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve experienced. John Beranek, a former juvenile justice professional who now serves as an adult facilitator for Straight Forward Youth in South Dakota, introduced the concept at the Idaho State Prevention Conference that took place Thursday and Friday in Sun Valley. Beranek enlisted 20 Hailey youth involved in Drug-Free Youth in the reenactment. And Blaine County School District counselors Julie Carney and Todd Gunter invited parents to tour the scene. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Finding parties is just a Facebook click away,â&#x20AC;? one girl told the parents. â&#x20AC;&#x153;You donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t even have to know the people that are giving them.â&#x20AC;? â&#x20AC;&#x153;We all have friends over 21 and they get us alcohol,â&#x20AC;? said another. â&#x20AC;&#x153;It makes me want to cry because the kids are out of control,â&#x20AC;? Robin Hayes told fellow parents as they met to discuss what theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;d seen. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re young. They think theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re bulletproof.â&#x20AC;? â&#x20AC;&#x153;As a parent, it hurts to see this because in hindsight you think you shouldâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve done this or that,â&#x20AC;? said another. â&#x20AC;&#x153;One parent old me this party feels like every parentâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s nightmare rolled into one,â&#x20AC;? said Beranek, as the parents discussed promoting better networking among themselves. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re not saying every kid does this. We donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t want you to go home and lock your kids up. But one of the kids said maybe itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s time to have a community conversation about this.â&#x20AC;? School Resource Officer Chad
soundbites
â&#x20AC;&#x153;This is like taking a tour of the zoo,â&#x20AC;? tour guide Chase Hutchinson told parents before they entered the Reality Party. â&#x20AC;&#x153;You get to see the animals, but you donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t get to interact with them.â&#x20AC;? â&#x20AC;&#x153;I have a slew of pictures of vomiting and stuff that I wish I could show kids. But Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m not legally allowed to.â&#x20AC;?â&#x20AC;&#x201D;Lara McLean, medic.
Schiermeier told the parents that he dreads being called to a party where underage drinking is involved. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t want to have to call 911 because someone is passed out and not breathing,â&#x20AC;? he said. A doctor described how kids are using and selling prescription medicine to get high, while a parent shared how young children are reveling in trying to make themselves vomit by drinking a gallon of water within an hour. Another father described how his son had been interested in the details of a student who recently died playing the choking game.
Teenagers deal with two cohorts who have passed out in the living room.
â&#x20AC;&#x153;I could tell he was curious and wanted to try something new. Maybe the key is to give them something different that is positive,â&#x20AC;? he said. Hailey Police Officer Steve England related that too many parents want to be friends with their kids first. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve been at a BBQ with parents and then cited them the next day for something
like this,â&#x20AC;? he said. Tommy Bailey, a Wood River High School junior who took part in the reenactment, said it was a learning experience. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We all know what goes on at these parties to some extentâ&#x20AC;&#x201D;it was pretty crazy. But, somehow, this took it to a whole new level.â&#x20AC;?

TABLE W to your’s
Feliz Cinco de Mayo
ith Mother’s Day just around the corner, this recipe always brings back memories of home. My sister and I would make this on her special day. I remember how the smell was so invigorating and I always thought the shape of a Bundt cake was beautiful and the texture of moist coffee cake just melts in your mouth! Since I have a sweet tooth, I always enjoy cooking this. I have lived in Sun Valley since 1978 and what I love about this Valley is that we are so blessed to live right in nature and the people are so friendly. It is truly a community that cares. tws

Tasty Classic Sour Cream Coffee Cake
BY MARGOT VAN HORN
S
aturday, May 5, will be the celebration day of the festive Cinco de Mayo. Many people believe that is the day of Mexico’s independence; however, it is not. Mexico’s Independence Day is Sept. 16. May 5 is the day that a very brave small Mexican army fought against the invading, much-larger French army in Puebla, Mexico, in 1862. The Mexican army won that battle. At the same time the beginning of our American Civil War was going on, so it’s also a day to commemorate the cause of freedom and democracy here. On June 7, 2005, the U.S. Congress issued a Concurrent Resolution calling on the President to issue a proclamation calling upon the people of the U.S. to observe Cinco de Mayo with appropriate ceremonies and activities. That day is therefore celebrated here in the U.S. and in Puebla, Mexico. Herewith I present for your eating delight a dish I hope both our Mexican community as well as for those of us from other parts of the world will enjoy.

• 1 tsp. baking powder • 1/2 tsp. fine sea salt Cinnamon-Sugar Filling: • 1 C. pecans (chopped) • 3/4 C. dark brown sugar • 1/4 C. granulated sugar • 1 Tbsp. cinnamon • Pinch sea salt
Instructions: Heat oven to 325 degrees. Coat a 12-cup (large) Bundt pan with vegetable oil or cooking spray. To make the batter: In a large bowl combine the butter and sugar. Use an electric mixer to beat until light and fluffy. Add sour cream, eggs and vanilla, then mix again until well incorporated. Measure and sift together flour, baking soda, baking powder and salt. Add flour mixture to butter-sugar mixture a little at a time, mixing between additions and scraping the sides of the bowl until well mixed. Set aside. To make the filling: In a large bowl combine pecans, brown sugar, granulated sugar, cinnamon and salt. Mix well. Spoon a shallow layer of the filling mixture over the bottom of the Bundt pan. Spoon half the batter into the pan over the filling. Sprinkle all but 1/4 cup of the remaining filling evenly over the batter. Pour the rest of the batter over the filling, smoothing it with a silicone spatula. Sprinkle with the remaining filling. Bake for 50-60 minutes or until the cake pulls away from the sides and a toothpick inserted at the center comes out clean. Remove from oven and transfer cake pan to a cooling rack. Let cool before slicing.

Ask the Guys
Dear Classified Guys, I think those who establish the rules and ordinances in my town have gone nuts. I wanted to hold a garage sale and found out I needed a $10 permit from the town in order to have it. Without one, I risk getting a $75 fine on the day of the sale. I can understand needing a permit to drive a car or own a gun. After all, people can get hurt if they're not careful. I can even see the logic of requiring a permit to hold a parade, build a house or even to go fishing, but a permit to have a yard sale? It seems ridiculous to me. I'm thinking of having the sale and forgoing the permit just to protest the silliness of it all.
â&#x20AC;˘ â&#x20AC;˘ â&#x20AC;˘
Cash: You forgot about your
dog. Typically they need a permit or license as well. Carry: Although I'm not sure how they get an unlicensed dog to pay a fine! Cash: The idea of needing a permit for a garage sale may seem silly to you, but your town does have legitimate reasons for requiring you to have one. Carry: Although most yard sales are held by homeowners who are just trying to clean out their garage,

over. After a few rain storms, you can find the signs floating around town. Carry: Or worse, still attached to a telephone pole. How many times have you followed an old sign only to notice the sale was two weeks ago? Cash: Towns that require permits will typically limit the amount of the signs you're allowed to post or where you can post them, and require that you to remove them after the sale. Carry: Although getting a permit may seem ridiculous to you, we recommend you follow your town's rules. Ten dollars up front is less expensive than the potential hassle and $75 fine.
others use them as a form of business. They hold a sale every weekend or every month and sell new items or antiques from their garage. Cash: You can imagine how bothersome it could be to live next door to that person. Carry: By requiring a permit, your town can help prevent those situations. So when you apply for a permit, you may notice regulations on how often you may have a sale, typically once or twice per year. Cash: Another reason for permits is to control the posting of signs, a pet peeve for many people. Not only do yard sales prompt signs to be placed all over town, but there are those individuals who leave their signs up long after the sale is
A few dollars for a dog license, a few more for a yard sale permit, all those permit fees charged by your town add up. Typically, fees are charged to cover the administrative expense of monitoring the permits. However in some towns, miscellaneous permit fees can account for up to 5% of the town's annual revenue. So the next time you pay your permit fee, think of it as helping to fund some of the town's many projects or services.
Breaking the Law
It's sometimes difficult to know all the laws in your town, especially when some of them are out of date or defy logic. In some towns of Oregon, for instance, it's illegal to whistle while underwater or juggle without a license. Fortunately, Connecticut doesn't have those laws. Instead, some of their towns say it's unlawful to walk backwards after sunset or to cross the street while walking on your hands. Who knows what old or silly laws might be in your town? â&#x20AC;˘

Reader Humor Tagged to Sell
For weeks I've been bugging my husband to go through an old tool cabinet in our garage for my upcoming garage sale. Considering he hires our neighbor Jim to fix absolutely everything, I figured he didn't need them. He kept putting it off, and on the day of the sale he even went to play golf. I figured since he wasn't there, I would just sell the tools. When he returned home and I told him that everything in the tool cabinet was sold, he was devastated and declared that nothing would ever get fixed now. "Stop being dramatic," I replied. "You never used those tools anyway." "You're right," he agreed. "But they all belonged to Jim!" (Thanks to Shakira P.)

518 raves I am wholeheartedly endorse and am voting for Michael David and Jim Slanetz for Ketchum City Council -- and I fervently hope that many other Ketchum voters do likewise; Slanetz is a savvy longtime Ketchum businessman (he co-owns The Board Bin), and David is an equallysavvy lawyer. And the fact that Doug Brown, Randy Hall and WREP all openly support Charles Friedman is reason enough for Ketchum voters NOT to!! Anyone who loves that superb “Salmon Fishing In the Yemen” movie that’s currently still playing to packed (and very appreciative) audiences at the Magic Lantern really need to rent the similarly-superb 2009 melodrama, “Young Victoria”, that likewise stars the immensely-talented English actress, Emily Blunt And be sure to get a WIDE, not FULL, screen copy of “Victoria” because he various castles they filmed it at are absolutely gorgeous!! Great April 14th article by By Betty Ervin (“Student Art Front and Center’). Great, too, that realtors Matt Bogue and Paul Kenny ARE allowing local students to ue the now-
empty North & Co. building for their eye-catching art works!! But why not keep up the art exhibition there indefinitely (instead of for just “2-3 weeks”)??? Like something? Don’t keep it to yourself.

Relay Teams Form
Teams are being formed for the Relay for Life, which takes place July 27 and 28 at Wood River High School. Relay For Life of Blaine County raises funds to fight cancer by hosting this overnight event where individuals and teams camp out with the goal of keeping at least one team member on the track or pathway at all times throughout the evening. The Relay takes place overnight because cancer never sleeps. Teams do most of their fundraising prior to the event, but some teams also hold creative fundraisers at their campsites during the Relay. Those interested in forming a team are encouraged to contact Tiffany at 731-6492 or attend one of two meetings: May 2, 6-7 p.m., Community Campus, Minnie Moore Room, or May 30, 6-7 p.m., Community Campus, Minnie Moore Room.
