Sawtooth Treasure Relax in the Mountains With the Idaho Rocky Mountain Ranch STORY & PHOTOS BY KAREN BOSSICK

Tim East and Stephanie Grosscup kick up their heels to the Latin rhythms of Incendio during last week’s Ketch’em Alive concert.
Garden Fundraiser Turns Into 3-Ring Circus
ames Kennedy and Ellen Libertine figure they have welcomed summer from the porch of the Idaho Rocky Mountain Ranch for the past 31 years. This year was no different as they pulled up a rocker, wine glass in hand, and gazed out on the jagged peaks of the Sawtooth Mountain Range as they caught up on the details of their otherwise busy lives. “I refer to this as porch duty,” said Kennedy. “When I first came here, they still had the original Idaho Rocky Mountain Club dishware. Sometime in the mid-’80s I saw my first laptop on this porch— someone from New York had brought one out here with them. But, generally, I’ve learned that you don’t come to this porch and talk about the news of the day because people don’t want to hear it.” Indeed, it’s easy to leave the cares of the modern-day world behind and settle into a simpler rhythm at the Idaho Rocky Mountain Ranch, which is nestled in the Sawtooth Valley between Galena Summit and Stanley. Day starts as the sun emerges from the hills behind the ranch, its rays burning through the ground fog that hangs over the valley and highlighting the tops of the mountain peaks that ring Redfish Lake. By 7:30 the ranch hands have set out a buffet of bagels, fruit, yogurt and homemade granola for early risers. And by 8:30 even the late risers are straggling in for breakfasts of Grand Marnier sourdough French toast and a Sawtooth veggie scramble made with grilled asparagus, leek, bell pepper, marinated tomatoes, baby red potatoes and goat cheese. Breakfast gives way to horseback rides along the Gold Creek Trail, hikes to nearby Hell Roaring Lake, fly-fishing and maybe even a trip to the nearby ghost towns of Bonanza and Custer. And by the time guests have worked up an appetite, the dinner bell rings again.
Cabins offer a view of the Sawtooth Mountains.
Once upon a time…
The ranch is not a dude ranch in the strict sense of the word where guests feed the horses, rake manure and help bring in the calves. Rather, it’s a guest ranch where folks from New Hampshire and Idaho—and Germany, Italy and Sweden, too—can play in the outdoors while snuggling up in handmade quilts designed to fend off

Harriman Tea Does Its Bit for Harriman Trail STORY & PHOTOS BY KAREN BOSSICK
T
he party dresses and hats came on last Tuesday afternoon as dozens of women flocked to Tina Mehan’s home overlooking the Sun Valley Golf Course to take part in the annual summer ritual known as the Harriman Tea. The high tea, which burst at the seams with finger sandwiches, chocolate-dipped strawberries, shrimp concoctions and other nibbles, was started a decade ago by Elkhorn resident Barbara Thrasher to raise money for upkeep of the Harriman Trail. The trail runs from the Sawtooth National Recreation Area Headquarters in the south to Galena Lodge in the north, offering summer biking and horseback riding and winter Nordic skiing. It serves as the course for the Boulder Mountain Tour, one of the nation’s premiere Nordic races each February. “I use the trails—particularly the ones at Galena—all the time,” Mehan told the women. “I love it and I think we should be very proud to have it.” Kris Stoffer, a member of the Blaine County Recreation District that oversees the trail, asked the women to take a moment to think of Teresa Heinz, who helped save Galena Lodge when it was facing a wrecking ball. Heinz, who has a home along the Big Wood River in Ketchum, had suffered a grand mal seizure earlier in the week at her vacation home in Nantucket. “Thank you for supporting this beautiful four-season Harriman Trail,” Stoffer added. tws

The Secret Life of Yarrow
A
Advocates Fight Abuse With Fashion Show Page 8
s you are hiking, biking, running, climbing, and recreating in the area during the summer, keep your eyes peeled for one of the most versatile wildflowers in the area, Achillea millefolium, or Western yarrow. Western yarrow is a native perennial in the Aster family and has an immense range covering most of North America. Its leaves are densely hairy with a lacy structure, and are fernlike in appearance (the species name millefolium translates to thousand leaves, referring to the finely cut leaves). Yarrow’s tiny flowers are typically white/ cream in color and are clustered at the end of tall stalks ranging in height from 10 inches to 36 inches, blooming from May to September. Though it may seem
like nothing special, yarrow is edible and has a variety of medicinal uses. When brewed as a tea, yarrow can help cure stomach ailments, relieve headaches, reduce fever and relax tired, achy muscles. When reduced to a paste, yarrow can be used as a disinfectant for burns, skin abrasions, and wounds. It can even be used as a wash to reduce dandruff and repel mosquitoes. As with all edible and medicinal plants, it is important to carefully identify the plant to make sure it is not a dangerous imposter. Consult plant identification books and botany experts before use. You can learn more about local wildflowers on one of the ERC’s Wildflower Walks, through July 25. Call ERC at tws 726-4333 to register.

The Bug Life - Eradicating Weeds Hunger Coalition Reels in Curious With Canned Trout Page 11
Sun Valley’s scorching heat this summer is perfect for our noxious weed-eating bugs to chomp their way through acres of weeds. They are most active during the hottest part of the day. Members of the Blaine County Bug Crew distribute insects native to other continents to dispose of those nasty weeds. The bugs they use only attack their targeted weed and so do not harm any other plants. Diffuse knapweed produces up to 18,000 seeds per plant. The bug that is used to eliminate diffuse knapweed is Larinus Minutus, a seedhead-eating weevil. Spotted knapweed is native to Eu-
rope and its seeds are viable for more than eight years. They typically bloom between July and October. To eradicate spotted knapweed, Cyphocleonus achates is also an option. This weevil attacks the root of the weed. If you are interested in learning more about Larinus Minutus, come to the SNRA at 2 p.m. on Wednesday, July 17 to watch a bug release. Everyone is welcome to attend and enjoy a delicious barbeque. For more information call Kathryn Goldman of Pesticide Action Network of Blaine County at (208) 721-3108, or contact Deb Taylor of the Sawtooth National Forest at (208) 622-0082.

Who, What, Where and Why
“N
oxious Weed Department?! What’s that?!” This is something we hear often at the county. And we’re here to say that, yes, Blaine County does have a very serious noxious weed problem and a very helpful noxious weed department. The mission of the Blaine County Weed Department (BCWD) is to protect Blaine County and its property owners from the harmful impacts of noxious weeds. We do this through outreach and education; we work to educate the public and landowners about noxious weeds and the best ways to manage them. Should it be discovered that you have noxious weeds on your property, you may receive a friendly letter from the BCWD letting you know what species of weed was found and some ideas on how to control it (remember, it is state law that landowners control the noxious weeds on their property). We encourage
you to call BCWD if you receive such a letter and talk to us about a management plan—but please remember, there is no yelling in noxious weed mitigation! The “least best” thing to do is ignore a letter from the BCWD; the weeds aren’t going away and neither are we. We have equipment and sprayers available for use, resource books, and can empathize how knapweed seems to multiple overnight. We are a great resource for chemical, mechanical, or biological control. So, yes, Blaine County does have a Weed Department and we are looking out for you and your land. We hope you will work with us. We encourage everyone to do their part in the fight against noxious weeds. Stop by and see us in the Blaine County Annex building Monday through Thursday from 8 a.m. to 6 p.m.; give us a call at 788-5516; or find us on Facebook at www. facebook.com/bccwma. tws This column is brought to you by Blaine County Weed Management.
Noxious weeds are a growing problem-do your part! Pull and report.

24-hr. roadside assistance for those days when you need a tire changed, or to have a door unlocked.
The first Camas Pioneer Picnic was held in 1913 in the then-bustling town of Soldier, Idaho, just two miles north of what is currently Fairfield — the Camas County seat. Since then, the Camas Pioneer Picnic, organized by the Camas Pioneer Picnic Association, has taken place every summer, in foul weather and (mostly) fair, to celebrate the first inhabitants of the Camas Prairie and their contemporary successors in a big community potluck. The event celebrates 100 years of potluck picnic perfection. Think about it — the Camas Pioneer Picnic has survived annually from the age of horse and buggies and steam tractors, through the age of the automobile, to the space age, into the computer age and beyond. Since this year’s Pioneer Picnic is the 100th of its kind, the Camas Pioneer Picnic Association is going all out to make this year’s picnic memorable. Everyone is invited to the free event, which is from 11:30 a.m. to 4 p.m., with picnic beginning at 1 p.m. on Sunday, July 21 in the Fairfield City Park. Meat and drinks will be provided, and picnickers are requested to bring a salad, dessert or side dish for the big table. Bring your own chair. Info: contact Nancy Davies, president of the Camas Pioneer Picnic Association, at 764-2330 or Marshall Ralph, vice president, at 721-0488.

Verve’s ReMix For The Ladies BY JAMIE CANFIELD, PROGRAM DIRECTOR, KSKI-FM/KYZK-FM
I
have been a fan of electronic music since a friend of mine introduced me to The Orb’s Adventures Beyond The Underworld when it came out in 1991. I never got into the four-onthe-floor house music of clubs, eschewing it for the down-tempo, ambient and acid-jazz electronica that was prevalent in the late nineties. I love remixes, especially if they’re done intelligently and reverently, and when I just received Verve Remixed: The First Ladies, I knew it would rock my world. First of all, Verve Records has always been one of the premiere jazz labels, so I knew the reverence would be there. Secondly, I saw remixes by RAC, Bassnectar and Kaskade, so I knew that it was right up my alley. I was not disappointed; Verve opened up their vaults for remixes of jazz’s queens; Ella Fitzgerald, Nina Simone, Sister Rosetta Tharpe, Astrud Gilberto and Dinah Washington are all remixed with panache and (pardon the pun) verve.

Shaw’s “Woman Of The Ghetto” is carefully dissected and reassembled by Australian producer and remixer Flume, while Billie Holiday’s “My Man” is given the full-on electronic makeover by Chaz Bundick, who goes under the moniker Toro Y Moi. Stan Getz & João Gilberto are the only male names that show up, but that’s only because they’re linked by the ultra-recognizable voice of João’s wife, vocalist Astrud on “Corcovado” remixed by TOKiMONSTA. This is a disc recommended for your next cocktail party or chillout on your patio as the sun is setting. tws
Pacific Rim: Kill All Monsters BY JONATHAN KANE
O
h my God – can it truly be? Is it possible for Hollywood to produce an effects-laden summer blockbuster that is actually worth watching? Look no further than the very entertaining new popcorn sci-fi fantasy Pacific Rim. I know it’s hard to believe but Pacific Rim puts to shame big disappointments like Iron Man 3 or the horrible Man of Steel. Probably the main reason is that it is written and directed by the very visually gifted Mexican auteur Guillermo del Toro. After delivering the fantastical Pan’s Labyrinth and the very entertaining Hellboy, del Toro turns to cheesy sci-fi that reminds in some ways of the great Starship Troopers. Visually, it’s top notch and the CGI effects actually entertain rather than put you to sleep. The story is about the ultimate battle to save the world. From a portal at the bottom of the ocean come the Kaiju – an

alien species of dangerous dinosaurs that can’t help but remind you of Godzilla. The thing is they have the ability to mutate as the humans catch up. To fight them, mankind has created the 25-story-high robots called Jaegers which are piloted by two drivers that must mind meld to make the machines work. When the program is shut down to build a defensive wall, Idris Elba takes the Jaegers underground to prepare for the ultimate battle when the wall fails. At the center of the movie is a washed-up pilot and a beautiful Japanese female pilot played, respectively, by Charlie Hunnan and Rinko Kieuchi. Together they drive what is called an analog machine because it’s so ancient and eventually save the day. Look, it’s not Shakespeare but it sure is entertaining. tws
Setup for a Comeback BY CHRIS MILLSPAUGH
M
y setback at the other paper has become my setup for my comeback with The Weekly Sun. Thanks for all the positive response. I’ve been keeping tabs on what is going on in the world for you and I must say the government told me how rarely you call your mom and, frankly, I’m disappointed. But I’m going to be adult about it. You know what an adult is, don’t you? Being an adult means hoping no one ever calls you on the phone. But I digress. I’m a bad influence on me. Anyway, don’t call, I’m an adult. Last week, while keeping tabs on what is going on in the world for you, I realized all the players and shakers on the planet were here in Sun Valley for the latest Herbert Allen and Company’s annual meeting. Over the years,
many a deal has been brokered and many business mergers have come to pass. Local businesses here in the Wood River Valley have monitored the progress at Sun Valley and have come up with a few ideas on merging, as well. For instance, in Hailey, Jane’s Artifacts has been in conferences with Dick’s Sporting Goods all week long in an effort to merge and become Dick and Jane’s Gift Cards for Athletic Aficionados. I will report later on how the talks are going. In Ketchum, Mama Inez’s board of directors has secretly been in smoke-filled meetings with Papa John’s Pizza’s CEO in the alley behind The Casino, mainly because it’s the only area in town where you’re allowed to smoke. The rumor is that they plan to open Papa and Mama’s Pizza de Mexico in just a few

Travis Jones, who counsels students about such issues as bullying, served as the official photographer for the evening, taking pictures of guests as they walked the red carpet.
hat happens when you pair elephants with Diane von Furstenberg’s iconic wrap dresses and other fashions? You make it possible for a woman to leave her abuser after learning that there’s a safe haven that will also accept her dog. You make it possible for teenagers to learn about bullying, including a teen-age boy who ends a relationship after learning that his girlfriend’s texts are not caring but controlling. The Advocates are able to provide programs like these and others thanks to the money raised at The Fearless and Fashionable fundraiser last Wednesday night at Ochi Gallery in Ketchum, said The Advocates Executive Director Tricia Swartling. The evening including bidding on several auction packages, including a South African safari, a look at Diane von Furstenberg’s fall collection, hors d’oeuvres served up by Tracey Caraluzzi and Julie Zapoli and a variety of cocktails boasting hints of cucumber and summer fruits. Fundraiser committee chair Joy Kasputys challenged the 150 audience members to speak out if they see or know about abuse. “Each of us has loved ones who have been touched by sexual assault or domestic violence or bullying. Too often we end up not talking about it at all,” she said. “Tonight is about being fearless because together we can help people heal. Together we can stop being bystanders. Together we can help others learn what healthy relationships look like…” Peggy Elliott Goldwyn, who serves as vice president of The Advocates board of directors, showed up at the event in a vintage wrap dress—what Diane von Furstenberg, a former princess and Belgian-born American fashion designer, is best known for. Her daughter, ever the fashion guru, spotted it in London

and insisted that Peggy buy it. Von Furstenberg, who also donated 10 percent of sales at a trunk show to The Advocates, has a variety of high-profile clientele, including First Lady Michelle Obama, who wore one of her dresses on the official 2009 White House Christmas card. Others who have sported her dresses include Gwyneth Paltrow, Madonna, Susan Sarandon and Jennifer Lopez. Money raised during the evening’s fundraiser will go to a number of programs, including a new General Education Development (GED) preparation course The Advocates plan to offer beginning in September.
“One of the programs that’s really impressed me is the education they do about bullying,” said board member Art Dahl. One of the models at “Bullying the show. is a precursor to domestic abuse. So, if we can reach kids about bullying, maybe we can help circumvent future domestic abuse.” tws

Originally developed at the University of Kentucky, the program focuses on teaching bystanders to recognize acts of abuse or violence, such as bullying, teen dating abuse and partner violence, when they see it. Green Dot provides training and the tools to make it easier for bystanders to intervene when they witness such acts and influence a positive outcome. “Green Dot is unique because it

Last Day to Vote for Davis to Get ESPY for Best Female Athlete With a Disability Today is the last day to cast your vote for Paralympian Muffy Davis in ESPY’s search for the 2013 ESPY for Best Female Athlete with a Disability. Friends and supporters can cast their vote for her by going to www. espn.go.com/espys/2013 and clicking on the link for Best Female Athlete with a Disability. Davis, who grew up racing for the Sun Valley Ski Education Foundation, challenged Picabo Street for the title of the fastest woman on Bald Mountain until she was paralyzed from the chest down when she caught an edge and careened off the cat track near Greyhawk on a training run when she was 16. She learned to ski again using a
monoski and won a handful of medals at Paralympics in Nagano, Japan, and Salt Lake City. More recently, she shifted gears winning gold at the 2012 Summer Paralympics in London as a hand cyclist. Davis has won every hand cycle race she’s entered, including the Overall World Cup title two years in a row. Her 2012 title came after a serious neck surgery she underwent in October 2011 because she was losing functioning in her left arm. She now works as a motivational speaker, speaking at conferences throughout the United States, including the Sun Valley Wellness Festival where she appeared in May.
Fly Fishing Film Fest at the Opera House Silver Creek Outfitters will present its 8th Annual Fly Fishing Film Festival from 7 to 10 p.m. Friday at the Sun Valley Opera House. A reception starts at 5:30 p.m. at the Sun Valley Village Store with
casting demonstrations, demo rods and games. A product fair will be held from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. Saturday at the Ketchum store. Tickets for the film festival are $15 and are available at the door.
Air Club Hosts Hangar Open House July 24 A Pilatus PC-12 aircraft will be the centerpiece of the Hangar Open House hosted by the Sun Valley Air Club (SVAC) on Wednesday, July 24 from 5 to 7 p.m. Atlantic Aviation is providing the venue for the Open House in its terminal hangar at the south end of Friedman Memorial Airport in Hailey. “We wish to welcome our new platinum members as well as meet prospective members,” explains Norman Nie, the founder of SVAC. “There’s a lot of talk about how important increased air service is to the future of the Wood River Valley. This Air Club offers a fantastic option for particular segments of our community,” Nie notes. The Pilatus PC-12 will be on display because it was added to the proposed fleet for SVAC operations to comply with the Department of Transportation requirement that all flights be organized by request of the members rather than posting of a fixed schedule. According to Nie, the Pilatus PC-

12 allows SVAC to have as few as three passengers on a flight and cover the direct operating costs. SVAC also plans to have a Learjet 60 and Saab 340b in the fleet. In addition to traveling with other members on flights to regular routes, SVAC members will have the option of privately chartering one of the aircraft at very attractive rates. For example, a flight between Sun Valley and Palm Springs would be $2810 on the Pilatus, which has seven seats, or $4250 on the Lear, which has eight seats.

arissa Roberts, recent Wood River High School graduate carrying a 3.6 GPA, is crazy about rodeo. But what makes it really interesting is that she has been competing after only taking up the sport a year ago. “I just started riding a year ago. I have always loved the country life and horses, but my parents never had the means to buy one. I also didn’t have the time to ride because I was busy with sports.” Roberts played softball, volleyball and basketball. “I joined the rodeo club this year because a good friend of mine was involved and she pushed me to get involved. My boyfriend’s mom has a horse and that’s how I got started.” For her competitions, Roberts specialized in three disciplines—dismounting, tying, and riding essentials. “For the club, we practice on our own every day for two hours and I have two people training me—Kelly Taylor and Lacey Thompson. There are three of us in the club and we’re really close, so if we can, we like to get together and practice.” Dismounting is getting off the horse while it’s trotting. Tying entails running down a goat, flipping it on its back and tying its legs while being timed, and riding essentials is exactly what it sounds like. “Dismounting was the hardest for me. My horse would always fling his head up because he didn’t like it. Tying is my favorite. I ended up with one of the fastest times in the district so I was pretty stoked. I practiced by tying my foot every night. When you flip the goat you try to do it gracefully and then land on top of it and tie the legs. I also watched YouTube videos and really paid attention at practice. I really poured my

heart and soul into learning how to do it. I finished in the top ten and was amazed. I never thought I would place. I was so proud of myself and pumped up that nothing would have brought me down. I guess I was just really focused and in the zone.” Roberts is also an accomplished singer, having started as a young child. “My earliest memories are of my mother always singing to me and that got me into it. In sixth grade I started singing in the school choir and continued through high school. I was part of the Carmina Montis all-girls choir. We sang folk music, Broadway tunes and classical. This year I won a national chorale award which was pretty cool because you received a trophy, a varsity letter pin and your name on a plaque.” Roberts continued, “I love performing in front of people and I never tried out for solos until this year. I’ve just become a lot more confident. I love showing people my emotions and expressing the feelings behind them.” You can be sure that her confidence shows through on every challenge she tackles. tws

For the fifth year in a row, Valley residents Brian Ross and Susan Reinstein and the Specialized Dealer Grant Program made the Blaine County Recreation District’s “Miles of Smiles” bike giveaway program a reality. This program is based on the idea that every child deserves a bicycle. In cooperation with the Blaine County School District social workers, this unique and inspiring program brought 20 bicycles to local kids that wouldn’t otherwise have one. The new bicycles provide these kids with transportation, exercise and an avenue to learn responsibility and safety, and some fun! Thanks to community volunteers and The Elephant’s Perch for helping to build the bikes and facilitate the “Miles of Smiles” program. Through this wonderful partnership, children in need in Blaine County have the chance to experience the excitement and joy of riding their own bicycle around the town and out on the Wood River Trail. Kids who received a new bike also received safety tips, helmets and bike-riding instruction. For more information about the “Miles of Smiles” bike giveaway program call Megan Stevenson at 5785459.

Wood River High School special education teacher Jamie Ellison is the program’s director. Windermere Foundation funding is provided by all local Windermere agents through contributions made at each closing. For more information on the Blaine County Education Foundation, please contact Mike Burchmore, executive director, at 208-578-5449, mburchmore@blaineschools.org or go to our website at www.supportbcef.org.

hings are about to get small. With most of July under our belt and many, many warm days ahead of us expect bug sizes to drop as well as the water levels in most of our rivers and streams. The good news is, the king of the tiny bugs is upon us – The Trico! This wonderful spinner fall is the favorite of many an angler, and a great way to fish your way through the heat of the summer. Anglers will find the Trico just about everywhere, from the fabled spinner falls on Silver Creek, to small pockets of insects on the upper Lost River and incredible mornings on the Big Wood. The Trico hatches out in the dark morning hours before the sun breaks, and anglers are greeted by spinner falls in the A.M. as soon as the air temperatures hit 70 degrees. The sky and subsequently the water will fill with these dead and dying mayflies and seemingly every fish in the river is aware and will begin to stage up with the first signs of the bug. Expect fish to pod up in the best spots to gorge themselves on this tiny insect. Most days expect the Trico activity to start as early as 7:30 or 8:00 and last until lunch time. (At which point the Picabo Angler is serving pulled pork and huge burgers and salads, just saying…) After lunch it is Damsel and Hopper time. There are plenty of Baby Hoppers out there in fishable sizes. Try tans and yellows, and don’t forget to beef up your tippets from 6X for Tricos to 3X for Damsel or Hopper fishing! Overall be prepared for little rivers and fine lines and tippets as we head toward August. Plan your fishing around low light when you can. The magic hours of twilight are very, very good right now. Caddis and Mouse flies are going to be “go to” patterns this week and in coming weeks for all those anglers fishing into the darkness. This is one of the best times of year to be and angler. Practice your siesta and stay on the water during the prime morning and evening hours and you will be blown away how good the fishing can be even in the dog days of summer. We’ve got a ton of great Trico patterns, Hoppers and more, so stop in and see us at the Picabo Angler!

is uncle, the father of carvers, showed him how to make the tall Pukumani grave poles and barbed spears used in ceremonies. Song leaders showed him how to dance as a means to channel and crystallize the self. And “the first old lady,” Kitty Kantilla showed him how to paint, using a comb made of ironwood. Now Pedro Wonaeamirri is the most famous of Tiwi artists—a man whose fame has spread beyond his native islands, which lie a hundred miles northeast of Darwin, Australia. That fame and artistic craftsmanship brought him to Sun Valley last week as part of “The Tiwi” art exhibition at Harvey Arts Project. Sun Valley’s high desert climb and 9,000-foot mountains were quite a contrast for a man used to beaches of brilliant white sand, ochre cliffs and swampy mangrove forests punctuated by hidden waterfalls. But Pedro, who had to travel 38 hours to get here, happily rode a gondola to the top of Baldy with his host Julie Harvey and attended Hailey’s Days of the West rodeo, arts shows and fireworks. Then he settled into a rhythm, painting his geometric painstaking patterns in the soft chalky browns and reds of ochre hues mined from his homeland. Pedro’s patterns, which can be seen at Harvey Art Projects, reflect the artwork painted on bodies of participants in ceremonial dances. They don’t reference dream time, as do so many of the art works of indigenous people of Australia. Instead, they reference creation stories—death and its arrival in the world, the foundation episode of Tiwi religion. A painting on a single piece of bark or canvas can take him months to complete. When done it’s about his family. It’s their clan design. And no one else can copy it. “We are Tiwi. We are not mainlanders. It’s important that people get to know about the country of their fathers, their mothers. It’s my job to pass it down,” says Pedro, who learned to speak English at home before honing it at school and later at boarding school in Darwin. Once the student, Pedro is now a leader of his people—a teacher, a master, a president. He became his father, following in his father’s footsteps as a leader of the people after his father was killed when his truck rolled while swerving to miss a wallaby.

Pedro now sits on the board of a new Tiwi college. He mediates family feuds. He makes the political decisions concerning the welfare-based economy his people live in. “He’s the maintainer of culture. The Tiwi have nothing written down—everything is passed orally,” explains Harvey. “He’s a brave man and he has a vision of his own. Let’s keep the culture, he’s saying, the song and the stories from a long time ago; have them breathing, be strong in ourselves as well as open to the world,” says another of Pedro’s admirers in a cover magazine article in “The Weekend Australian Review.” Pedro’s art has already taken him to Germany twice. The exhibition in Sun Valley marks the debut of Tiwi art in the united States for his people who otherwise live on bush fruit and the turtles, catfish, salmon and barramundi they catch. “For me, I feel very privileged and proud of my culture. We are living in white society, but we have our own tradition—and it goes on,” Pedro says. “We belong to the island. We live on the island. That’s who we are—Tiwi.”

Higher Ground Campers Build Native Species Garden STORY & PHOTOS BY KAREN BOSSICK

heir noses were streaked with dirt, and a few had endured multiple showers during the day, thanks to the garden-hose-wielding prowess of Tanise McDonald. But, by the end of the hot Tuesday afternoon, the lawn in the front of the Blaine County Extension office in Hailey was sporting a new rock and gravel pathway and an engaging crop of native plants. The new native species garden in front of the extension office at First Avenue and Walnut Street across from the Hope Garden was funded by a grant from the Idaho Botanical Garden Luminaria Foundation. Bronwyn Nickel, Blaine County Noxious Weeds outreach and education coordinator, came up with the idea. The Environmental Resource Center’s Mark Beaver designed the garden with the help of Natalie Ertz of Rooted in Nature. And seven participants in Higher Ground’s summer camps did the dirty work. The garden will serve as an example of how to landscape with native species that will use less water and cut down on invasive species, said Nickel. The garden features a rock mountain maple tree, mock orange, mountain spirea, purple salvia, pine leaf penstemon, coneflowers, columbines, blazing stars, desert primrose and coy-

It was a real pleasure,” Smith said. tws

SAWTOOTH TREASURE, from page 1
Guests can unplug and get back to board games at the Idaho Rocky Mountain Ranch.
James Kennedy of Ketchum visits with Ellen Libertine, a former K-Town resident who now lives in Stanley, on the porch of the Idaho Rocky Mountain Ranch lodge.
“Now the place has a luxurious feeling — but still with all the rustic flavor you want…” -Sue Beede the chill of a Sawtooth Mountain morning, enjoy meals of bourbon-apple glazed salmon with plantain-pecan relish, Israeli couscous and spinach salad with local leeks and relax the night away with a game of chess in front of a crackling fire. All without the crowds one has come to expect in a national park. “The Rocky Mountain Ranch is an extension of the Western ranch tradition where towns were few and far between and ranchers extended gracious hospitality to those traveling through,” said ranch manager Sandra Beckwith. “We do have horseback riding, Dutch-oven cookouts, even a pond for fishing. But we also serve as a good base for guests to go out and explore on their own.” The property the ranch sits on was originally the homestead of Stanley Basin pioneer and mail carrier Dave Williams, one of the first climbing guides in the Sawtooths. Captivated by the beauty of craggy peaks resembling a saw blade, New York Frigidaire distributor Winston Paul bought the property in 1929. Over the next few months, 60 workers camped out in the open meadow, snaking logs up the creeks to build the 8,000-squarefoot lodge said to be inspired by Yellowstone’s Old Faithful Lodge. The ranch opened the following year as an invitation-only hunting club where guests could “hunt” the plentiful deer, elk and other game from the expansive front porch made of knotty pine. The current owners—financier Steve and architect Courtney Kapp, and financier David Singer and his wife Diane Kapp— refurbished the lodge and the 17 cabins that surround it several years ago. They endowed them with modern amenities like Oakley stone in the showers while maintaining the rustic charm provided by log burl chandeliers, wooden skis hanging on the walls and cowboy boots, lariat and branding irons that helped earn the lodge a place on the National Register of Historic Places. They built a new deck in the concrete hot pool, which maintains a comfortable temperature between 98 and 103 degrees. And they added heated changing rooms below the pool. “I remember when they used to put you up on Army cots. And the bathrooms were so tight you could hardly turn around,” said

Sue Beede, of Eagle. “Now the place has a luxurious feeling— but still with all the rustic flavor you want in an Idaho ranch.”
Unplugging
One thing the ranch’s current owners didn’t do was to put TVs in every room. The absence of TVs frees guests up to sit on the porch, just as the first guests did 80 years ago. But, instead of hunting game, they’re hunting for the most dramatic sunsets to train their cameras on. Guests can relive their childhood days with a game of Risk found on the shelves in the Great Hall. They can watch prairie dogs cavort on the lawn and Western tanagers flit in and around the knotted pine posts. They can practice casting on the lawn while listening to local fishing guides tell tall fish tales and offer tips on fishing in the Sawtooth Valley. Or they can take advantage of one of the special workshops Beckwith arranges, such as a workshop comparing $100 wines with $10 wines. Dinner, which is open to the public by reservation, isn’t your typical ranch fare of barbecued steaks and chicken and pinto beans. Chef Jordan Boutry serves up Montana grass-fed beef tenderloin with grilled garlic scape and arugula pesto, and Lava Lake Lamb with apricot, pistachio and fresh herb couscous and Puget Sound Manila clams and grilled Idaho Basque sausage with homemade pappardelle pasta in a blistered grape tomato and Chardonnay sauce risotto spiced with bits of fruit. Full or not, you can’t pass up the choice of desserts, which includes such tantalizing dishes as berry shortcake and white chocolate macadamia nut brownie with house caramel ice cream.
Wining and dining
Monday is a Dutch-oven cookout, and Thursday, a grilled barbecue buffet. Come Saturday, chef Boutry serves up a Southwest fajita grill with Argentine-style Idaho Wagyu flank steak with chimichurri sauce, orange-cilantro and cumin-rubbed Hawaiian swordfish topped by Mexican chocolate silk pie with pecans and caramel sauce. Even the sack lunches that ranch hands hand out to guests who are headed out for a day of hiking, mountain biking or fishing are not the stuff of PBJ
sandwiches. The Snowyside Peak sandwich features caramelized fennel and sweet onions, artichoke-lemon confit and feta pesto with roasted balsamic bell pepper, cucumbers and watercress on herb focaccia. The Mount Cramer features grilled eggplant with mozzarella, marinated tomatoes, arugula and raisin-pinenut relish. And the Mount Heyburn, Grand Mogul and Thompson Peak sandwiches feature roast turkey, house-made pastrami and Kurabuta ham spiced with such things as cranberry marmalade, telicherry pepper mayo, peach and rosemary jam and roasted garlic mayo. Boutry calls it cast-iron cuisine. “I knew since I was little that I wanted to be a chef. My Grandma Bev was a really great cook—if she made spaghetti, she’d spend all day simmering the sauce,” said Boutry, who attended a culinary school in Denver before working at a Denver country club and a ranch outside Bozeman, Mont. “I pride myself on Rocky Mountain cuisine. I love to use local fresh high-quality ingredients, such as morels, that represent Idaho and the West. And I like to use cast iron. Cast iron was good in the 1700s and it’s still a good way to cook, as it’s constantly being seasoned by searing and caramelizing. To prepare for this season, Idaho Rocky Mountain Ranch brought up John Alonge, the socalled “Wine Heretic,” to train staff in the ways of wine. A sommelier, Alonge grew up in France where he developed a love of the vine working in vineyards as a youngster. He learned viticulture at the University of Bordeaux and then moved to the United States where he started the San Diego Wine and Culinary Institute. He still maintains a busy schedule presenting wine seminars to Fortune 500 CEOs and—of course—guests at the Idaho Rocky Mountain Ranch, whom he took on an armchair geographical wine tour of the world last year. “One thing a lot of people don’t realize is that everyone tastes things a little differently,” he said. “So, the bottom line when it comes to wine: You like what you like, whether it costs $100 or $10.” Beckwith says she is continually amazed at the authenticity of the ranch, especially after having toured other guest ranches in Colorado and other states

this past spring. Libertine agreed. “The great thing about the new owners—well, they’ve probably owned it for 10 years now—is that they kept it the same. They’ve upgraded the infrastructure—the bathrooms and showers—while keeping the ambiance. And that includes the porch and, of course, the food— nothing beats the food.”

Garden Fundraiser Turns Into Three-Ring Circus
Celeste McCulley demonstrates her fire-eating prowess for garden patrons. STORY & PHOTOS BY KAREN BOSSICK
T
here was no deep-fried fair food—this, after all, is Sun Valley, where we don’t go in for that kind of grub. But there were plenty of innovative cocktails. In fact, Ryan “Sully” Sullivan came up with two fit for a circus at Saturday night’s Magic in the Garden fundraiser for the Sawtooth Botanical Garden. Some patrons were initially a little skeptical about trying his Circus Peanut and Cotton Candy cocktails. But one sip and they were quickly won over. “When I first tried it, I said it tasted like something from the ’60s. Somebody finally pinned it down as tasting like a Dreamsicle,” said John Balint, the garden’s board chair, as he tried a Cotton Candy Cocktail with a wisp of cotton candy around the rim. Sullivan, who owns The Bluebird Café in Ketchum with his wife, has been mixing drinks since working his way through college at the University of Rhode Island. He said he started the Circus Peanut Cocktail with that orange-colored marshmallow candy peanut in mind. “Actually, the vodka companies do all the work for you now, what with flavors like cotton candy,” he said, producing a bottle of Cotton Candy Vodka from his mixology tool kit. The Sawtooth Botanical Garden was decked out like a circus with brightly colored tents and games. And the 150 men and women who turned out for the event proved they were more than up to the task of throwing rings around bottles of wine and Ping-Pong balls in vases. Sandi Chapman won a Nordic pass from the Blaine County Recreation District for her prowess in sinking Ping-Pong balls. Carl Feldbaum was among numerous patrons who walked away with potted plants following a vigorous bout of dart throwing. And Christie Anderson walked away with a couple bottles of wine that she had tossed rings around. Cindy Theobald temporarily resembled a kid again, doing a slight hop and throwing her arms up in the air as she celebrated sinking a Ping-Pong ball in a vase on her first try. “I used to play to win goldfish in the sixth-grade carnival,” she said. Aftan Pennell ran from one thing to another as she cited her love for the garden. “Gardening’s totally my thing,” she said. “I’ve had a garden plot here where I raise sugar snap peas, chard, broccoli—you name it—since 2007. I garden

from June to November—it’s brought me a lot of joy.” Celeste McCulley, who performs at Renaissance faires in Utah, Colorado and elsewhere, started the evening as a wingwalker on stilts before segueing into a fire-eating fire dancer. You have to be careful not to inhale—inhale once and you have asthma the rest of your life, she cautioned. “I saw another girl do it and it was so mesmerizing and such a beautiful magical form of art and the elements that I told her, ‘You’ve got to teach me,’ she recalled. You practice a lot without fire. Then you get a whole bunch of friends to cheer for you and go for it. It makes you look at things differently. Now I’m aware of all the elements, such as the way the air is flowing.” The laid-back circus-like atmosphere got a thumbs up from patrons, right down to the music from the ’60s being spun by a disc jockey. “I had so much fun,” said Diane Steffey-Smith. Funds raised during the evening will go to children’s scholarships for the annual Bug Zoo and other field trips. About 3,000 Blaine County students take part in education programs at the garden each year. Some of the money is also earmarked for a new gazebo that can be used for weddings and other events. Valley resident Ali Long has offered to match any gifts toward the gazebo project up to $60,000. The garden, which is open daily free of charge, was founded in 1993 by a group of gardeners and environmentalists who wanted to educate people about native plants and the ecology of this area. More than 7,000 people visit the garden each year to view the various montane and alpine gardens, chase water critters in the creek, take part in children’s camps and adult workshops and leave handwritten prayers of peace in the Tibetan prayer wheel given to the garden by the Dalai Lama. The garden recently underwent a major transformation and will soon feature an English knot garden and gazebo besides. Annual events include the Bug Zoo Festival each spring, the Harvest Festival and Pumpkin Chuckin’ Contest in the fall and the Festival of Trees and Lights in the Garden at Christmas time.

The Inner Child Within You “Everything in life responds to the song of the heart.” —Ernest Holmes BY VEE RILEY
L
ISTEN! I am your feelings, dreams and fantasies. Pay attention and love me. I am your inner child crying out to be recognized as your healer and teacher. Who is this inner child? Lift the veil that surrounds your heart and you will know. This is where the inner child resides. Lucia Capacchione, in her book “Recovery of Your Inner Child,” shares her experience of healing when confronted with a life-threatening disease. By writing and drawing with her non-dominant hand, she encountered her angry and vulnerable child. By embracing both, she discovered her creative and magical child; bringing about wholeness from within. From there she went on to become an art therapist. In her book “The Power of the Other Hand,” Lucia offers a number of techniques that utilize both sides of the brain, affording one the capacity to discover new ways of working with your inner child. This inner child is always seeking our attention, saying “move into your own dream.” How many people do we know who are living someone else’s

dream? It is not easy to live the path of our own hearts but it is harder to live someone else’s. Less than two weeks ago, while preparing for a collage workshop, I was confronted with my somber child. Long-faced and serious, I spent the day trying to mend my attitude. That evening, turning on the TV to PBS, I found my answer. Lawrence Welk was performing in one of his early shows. My mood shifted when Mr. Bojangles appeared tap-dancing on a three-step platform, up one side and down the other. You may wonder how this simple setting could delight my playful child, dissolving the pent-up feeling. You see, during the Great Depression years, my family could not afford luxu-
ries; however, when the Shirley Temple movie came to our area, we were there. I was 8 years old at the time. My fascination with the happy-go-lucky Mr. Bojangles was still the same and his dancing shoes shifted my mood and left me tap dancing (without the taps, of course). Reflect on your own playful childhood. When a glimpse of joy emerges—capture it! In opening my heart, where my inner child resides, I found the source of my own power to heal. The grown-up world is full of responsibilities, causing us to live in our heads rather than our bodies. In cutting off the inner child we lose touch with feelings and emotions. Walt Disney was a great example of one who lived in creative imagination and play. The minute one vision for a project unfolded, he was on to the next—kindling a light throughout the world. Listen to the song of your heart. Give yourself permission to explore the wisdom that is coming from the depths of your being. tws Enjoy the journey!

idn’t catch a fish? Disappointed and hungry but still in your fishing togs? Quick, just as you are, try Seasons Steakhouse. You don’t have to dress up to enjoy not only fabulous dining but a very fun and friendly experience. As co-owner Freda Wilson says: “When you taste a good meal and you are in comfortable clothing, it makes the whole experience inviting and relaxing.” And that very accurately describes the atmosphere at this very fun family-like new restaurant that opened on June 6 of this year. It has a casual atmosphere because it is partially a sports bar with six large-screen TVs; however, it’s much more than just that because of the fine dining choices. Freda is relatively new to our area but you’ll surely recognize the other owner, Marc Avery. Marc was with Mama Inez for seven years, starting when they opened in November of 1986; after, he did a bit of constructing of new homes. But missing the restaurant business and having Freda as his sidekick, Seasons Steakhouse came about. The name is indicative of what they want their restaurant to reflect which is having the menu change right along with the seasons. The food is truly wonderful. I got a taste of the yummy Chateau Briand for TWO with a side of very creamy delectable Béarnaise sauce ($45 pictured above). This dish also includes a perfectly done wild rice offering
or fingerling potatoes or potatoes au gratin as well as beautifully done fresh veggies, a salad and a basket of rolls. This is all put together by Chef Derek Reese who hails from the Encore, New York, New York and Rio Vegas resorts. Still hungry after your savory platters? Try something sweet that Walt House, who trained at the Ruth Chris Steakhouse chain, creates—like his special cheesecake—or, if not that, there is always his cobbler, chocolate mousse, or some seasonal sorbet. The wines and beers, mostly from the Pacific Northwest, are carefully selected by the restaurant’s management crew, which consists of the co-owners and Brenda Boyle, the front manager. The three top TVs are shut off when dinner commences, so you can go into the portioned dining room to have a more private dinner; however, if you want to stay at the lively bar, you can have your full meal there and not miss a beat on the TV or with your bar cohorts. Handcrafted drinks are a specialty. As the year rolls on, Seasons is planning to open early for the football preseason, opening the bar for lunch on Saturdays and Sundays. So put that in your football bonnet/helmet. Make sure to visit their website at www.seasonssteakhouse.net. If you haven’t already, give this fun restaurant a try soon and, as always, be sure to say that Margot and The Weekly Sun sent you. tws This once-monthly column features our wonderful Valley restaurants, to which we can easily stroll—sometimes with the help of a bus or car ride—and is therefore called The Walking Gourmet. I hope that it will be a helpful guide for would-be diners as well for all of our fine local eateries.

Wine Auction Will Let Your Imagination Soar

irque du Soleil-type performers, massive chandeliers made out of antique picture frames, an original song crafted in part by Valley kids— they’re all part of the Sun Valley Center for the Arts’ 2013 Wine Auction Weekend. The weekend, which features one of the premier charity wine auctions in the country, kicks off with vintner dinners in private homes on Thursday and culminates Saturday with the popular concert picnic, which this year has been expanded to include wine tastings. The picnic/wine tasting, which costs $75 per person, is nearly sold out, with The Center already selling more tickets than in the past several years. And there are still some a la carte tickets to vintner dinners and the gala wine auction dinner at $750 each. A fourth event—the Junior Patrons Circle Wine and Tapas Tasting on Thursday—costs $150. The Cirque Berzerk performers, who resemble Cirque du Soleil performers but with a twist, will entertain patrons at the Wine Auction Gala from 5 to 10 p.m. Friday under the tent at Carol’s Dollar Mountain Lodge. They’ll offer performances throughout the evening before topping it off with a highly entertaining 30-minute finale at the end of the party. Wine representatives will be present at nearly every table. And Sun Valley’s head chef John Murcko—named the top chef in Utah before moving to Sun Valley—will trot out the menu. “We prefer to stay local, and he has the talent to provide an exceptional meal—this is his opportunity to shine,” said Christine Davis-Jeffers, The Center’s wine auction manager.

who recently merged with The Center, will provide an artistic approach to the dinner, including beautifulyl imaginative décor by K.O.

We’ll be performing that and some other numbers—it’s a chance for the kids to show off and for the supporters to see what they do.” Saturday evening’s picnic— the biggest ever—will feature bites from 17 local restaurants at five stations served up under the tent beginning at 6 p.m. Picnic-goers will receive a complimentary Riedel glass for tasting

Sister Sparrow and the Dirty Birds BY KAREN BOSSICK
A
rleigh Kincheloe and her clan have their roots in the Catskill Mountains of New York. But the hard-driving brass funk that her band—Sister Sparrow and the Dirty Birds—plays is rooted in the soul music of Memphis. “I started singing in my parents’ country rock band when I was 9—my father and his identical twin played music together forever. So when my brother Jackson and I formed a band, we called upon our cousin Bram, with whom we bear a strong resemblance. And he brought in a couple of his childhood friends to provide the horns we needed,” she said. Sister Sparrow and the Dirty Birds will bring their eight-piece powerhouse, which includes saxophone, trumpet and brother Jackson’s harmonica, to Carol’s Dollar Mountain Lodge Saturday evening when they provide the entertainment for the Sun Valley Center for the Arts’ Grand Wine Tasting and Picnic concert. The event runs from 6 to 9 p.m. Kincheloe got her stage name, Sister Sparrow, on a lark during a road trip to Sedona, Ariz. “We had stopped at a hotel

in Sedona called The Desert Quail and we were discussing band names. I was calling my sister Mama Quail and my brother, he just kept saying ‘dirty bird.’ She said, then you should be ‘Sister Sparrow.’’ Sister Sparrow and the Dirty Birds had a breakout year in 2012, opening for Gov’t Mule, the Avett Brothers and Steely Dan. They even released their second album, “Pound of Dirt,” which includes the song “Make
It Rain”: By the look of the horse I rode into town you can see I’m saddled and fit to throw down No intention of slowing ‘til I hear the ‘whoa’ sound…” Kincheloe says she pens her songs from real-life experiences. But her favorite come out of her dreams. “I’m just excited for people to hear them,” she added.

Ketchum Arts Festival Basks Under Bluebird Skies T STORY & PHOTOS BY KAREN BOSSICK
he Ketchum Arts Festival was blessed with weather that was a work of art itself—with cloudless bluebird skies and temperatures in the 80s.
Prospective shoppers flocked to Festival Meadows on Sun Valley Road to peruse Melissa Graves Brown’s unique aspen tree paintings, Kim Howard’s delightful child-captivating illustrations, Lesley Martin’s triangular earrings and more.
PHOTOS (clockwise from right) Paul Wisdom of Deary, Idaho, watches while prospective customers examine this gong and other “Dharma Works.” Sun Valley artist Nancy Liston’s ceramics featuring iconic Sun Valley images are always a big hit with tourists. Jason McIlhaney, of Hailey, enjoyed the festival with Paco, an Amazon double-yellow headed parrot. Ketchum artist John Caccia, who creates pendants for river rafters, gardeners and others, shows off some art created by his mother, who is also an artist. Dave LaMure’s eagle sculpture, which revolves on its pedestal, included a nest with eggs if you look close enough. Ketchum artist Barbara Kline took a few minutes to autograph her fanciful photographs. Hailey welder Bob Wiederrick showed off a number of yard sculptures, including this Sun Kachina. Elkhorn artist Lisa Holley, who has long created watercolors featuring wildlife embodying the things they eat, showed off her latest venture—people portraits. Kids found a ready resting spot atop Hailey welder Bob Wiederrick’s giant-sized bicycle sculpture. Gooding sculptor Jacob Novingeer turned heads with his giraffe in the sky, as well as a regal-looking lion sculpture.

Ask the Guys
Dear Classified Guys, It seems every game show is giving away a million dollars these days, and I can see why. While scanning the classifieds I was shocked at the prices of homes. Now my house is small. You actually can't go anywhere without stepping on a kid, a dog or a toy that belongs to the kids or dogs. I officially need a bigger house. We found an ad for a restored 4-bedroom farmhouse with a few acres of property. Perfect and reasonable we thought, until we saw the price of $1.1 million. As a kid I thought that kind of money was supposed to buy you anything you wanted. Aren't mansions and castles supposed to cost $1 million? That got me thinking. Even if I could one day muster up that kind of fortune, is that all the house I could get for a million bucks? It just doesn't seem right.

Cash: There are still many
places where a million dollars can buy you a mansion. Although you might have to search a little harder to find your castle! Carry: Of course, the size house you can buy for a million dollars has a lot to do with the area
Fast Facts Rolling in Dough
Duane “Cash” Holze & Todd “Carry” Holze 07/14/13 ©The Classified Guys®
you're looking to call home. You can even see a large variation in housing prices between neighboring towns or cities. Cash: For any particular area, housing prices often fluctuate with the economy and the job market. If you were to spend that amount of money in a rural area, you would see drastically different results. Carry: A million dollars in Manhattan, NY might limit you to a 1,200 square foot apartment. However, move to Des Moines, Iowa, and the same million dollars could find you living in an 8,000 square foot mansion. That's enough space for each dog to have their own bedroom! Cash: Since you are clearly
having sticker shock over the prices of homes in your area, maybe you're searching outside the price range you should be. While a four-bedroom house with plenty of land would be nice, it's no good if you can't pay the mortgage. Carry: Before you spend too much time looking at houses, you might want to determine how much you can actually afford to spend. And if a new house seems out of your range, maybe you could opt to improve or expand your current home. Cash: Of course, if the milliondollar house is your goal, you can always try to be a contestant on one of those game shows.

Do you want to be a millionaire? Well, you'd be in good company. Today there are an estimated 8.9 million millionaire households across the country. That's about 7% of the population. Most of them have investment strategies in common. Nearly 19% of them own part or all of a business or professional practice, 46% own investment property, 70% own stocks and bonds and 68% own mutual funds. Wonder how many of them ever played the lottery?
Two years out of college, I was flying on a business trip to my hometown when I happened to sit next to a friend of mine from high school. It was the perfect chance for us to catch up. While I had taken a sales job that required extensive travel, he had stayed in our hometown to work at a nonprofit organization. We talked about how the housing market has risen dramatically in our town, and he mentioned that he found a decent apartment that was perfect for his price range. "That's great," I told him. "Are you close by to your parents?" "A little too close," he sheepishly replied, "I'm renting their basement!" (Thanks to Jason A.)
Gold Rush
In the TV game show world, winning easy prize money has always been the draw. People are hooked on the suspense of a contestant winning or losing money. Although the stakes are higher than ever, with many shows boasting a $1 million grand prize, only a handful of contestants have managed to win that much. The current record in winnings belongs to Ken Jennings who has managed to rack up over $3.7 million among four different game shows. His most notable success was on Jeopardy where he won 74 consecutive episodes. •
