Hemingway filmmakers By KAREN BOSSICK

N

ine fifth-graders from Hemingway Elementary School got a crash course in filmmaking just one week after school started in their bid to cobble something together for Sun Valley’s Film Festival. The youngsters wrote a script about eight girls who head up Bald Mountain to Sun Valley’s historic Roundhouse Restaurant for a birthday party. Four girls elect to take the gondola, including one whose fear of sailing over the pine trees turns to exhilaration as she realizes how much fun it is. Four others elect to hike up Baldy but become lost and arrive

four hours late. “I’ve always just followed my dad before,” says the leader. Hemingway technology teacher Scott Slonin, whose students have won national video awards earning them trips to Washington, D.C., and New York City in the past, said it was difficult to pull something together so early in the school year. “But how could I pass it up?” he said. “It’s a local festival— somewhere where the kids can showcase their work here instead of New York. If we can just get our film shown in the Opera House on the big screen, that

They had a chance to ripen when the mid-September full moon didn’t bring frost. The flowers in the Habitat are going crazy, which means I’m doing the same. For them, it’s been a very late year. Perennials, almost without exception, have been late to bloom. For instance, some coral bells (heuchera, saxifrage family) are flowering now, and not in June, as expected. Annuals, seeded in late April, are just now popping up, things like plains coreopsis, scarlet flax and a variety of poppies. Some plants have had prolonged flowering seasons, like violets, columbines, black-eyed Susans, coneflowers, scarlet gilia and blue flax.

Oliver! leaves you wanting more By KAREN BOSSICK

P

lease, sir, may I have some more? After a summer of typically dismal TV reruns, you might think me a fool for asking for a rerun. If so, you didn’t see St. Thomas Playhouse’s musical “Oliver” this past weekend. It was everything you could hope for in community theater. The theatre company’s fourday run debuted as dozens of stellar singing voices resounded from the Sun Valley Jazz ‘n’ Dixie Jazz Jamboree. But the singers in “Oliver” were surprisingly strong--from the Widow Corney played by Janis Walton down to Oliver, a role shared by Beck Vontver and Lexi Black. There wasn’t a single weak link in the bunch—surprising for a roster of non-professionals that included children. The characters were absolutely scrumptious—from Cherie Kessler’s eye-squinting funeral parlor madam Mrs. Sowerberry to Steve d’Smith’s delicious Fagin to Keith Joe Dick’s scowling

Bill Sykes. The children were adorable, too. And who couldn’t fall in love with Heidi Hogan’s tenderhearted Nancy?! The seven-piece orchestra under the direction of Dick Brown offered the perfect accompaniment. Jamey Reynolds’ set boasting colored slats and secret doors was simple but effective, while Michele Minailo-Jefferson’s costumes for the likes of Mr. Bumble and Mrs. Bronlow were gloriously rich. And anyone who didn’t feel glad to be alive when Heather Black, Cherie Kessler and Hollie Hatch led off “Who Will Buy?” deserved to be banished to the workhouse. I sat in between a couple from the Okanagan Valley of British Columbia, who were spending their last night of the jazz festival taking in music of a different sort, and a couple from Twin Falls.

Saturday’s Met Opera at Big Wood

The Metropolitan Opera presents Mussorgsky’s Boris Godunov live to the Big Wood 4 Cinemas in Hailey on Saturday, Oct. 23 at 10 a.m. The transmission is part of the company’s Peabody and Emmy Award-winning series, “The Met: Live in HD.” Boris Godunov, adapted from a play by Alexander Pushkin about the extraordinary reign of the 16th-century tsar, is regarded as Mussorgsky’s operatic masterpiece, and the title character, to be sung by René Pape, is a touchstone role for operatic basses. The Met’s new production of Boris Godunov by Stephen Wadsworth is conducted by Valery Gergiev, who is widely recognized as the world’s leading conductor of Russian opera. “Through Boris, we see the private mind of a flawed leader, and through the chorus, we see the volatility of a people skeptical about their leaders.” Tickets can be purchased at the Big Wood box office for $22/adult, $20/seniors, $18/students.

The same might also be true for their owners! Initially, the couple’s market for Invisible Fence was secondhome owners. With the economic downturn, however, “locals have become our major client base,” notes Steve. Trina likes the growing opportunity to work with people in the year-round community since they’re often a bit more relaxed than visitors and can expend the quality time needed for effective training, for their dogs and themselves. Asked to explain their business philosophy, Steve says, “Customer service is it. We are quickly available to clients, whether for an install or service, and we stay in touch.

The couple clearly loves their lifestyle and, as Steve puts it, “I look forward to my son being able to grow up here.” It would be great if more people could become as successfully grounded here as this young couple! twp Jima Rice holds a Ph.D. from Harvard University, and is president of Jigsaw, Inc., a local 501(c)(3) non-profit that supports entrepreneurs, small businesses, and a sustainable economy in the Wood River Valley.

briefs Make fish at SVCA’s free family day

Families are invited to tour the exhibition Water at the Sun Valley Center for the Arts in Ketchum and then use their imaginations and The Center’s supplies to create fish out of clay and paper. The clay fish will be embedded with seeds native to Idaho’s riverbanks and will become part of the exhibition until they are released into the Big Wood River in a ceremony on Nov. 6 as part of artist Basia Irland’s contribution to Water. Adults and children will also be able to make a paper fish to take home. The Water Family Day will be held on Saturday, Oct. 23 from 3 to 5 p.m. Family Days are free drop-in activities, with no registration necessary. Projects are inspired by current gallery exhibitions and many activities require adults to be hands-on helpers to their children. For more information about Family Days or the multidisciplinary project Water, which also includes a panel discussion, a film screening and a lecture by water rights activist Maude Barlow on Nov. 4, visit www.sunvalleycenter. org or call 726-9491.

Snowflake show

B

efore we know it, we’ll be looking at snowflakes as something to shovel or something to slide on. But you can simply appreciate their beauty right now by checking out a new exhibit at the Ketchum/ Sun Valley Ski and Heritage Museum. by: Karen The Bossick museum is hosting an exhibit titled “The Secret Life of a Snowflake” through Dec. 4. The exhibit is based on a picture book by Ken Libbrecht, a fan of snow since his boyhood days in Fargo, N.D., and chair of the Physics Department at Cal Tech. The book features photos in which he examined snowflakes under a microscope. The hexagonal-shaped flakes always look like six-pointed stars, said Libbrecht. No two look alike because each follows a different path on its descent to earth as it tumbles and falls through the clouds. Curtis Bacca who waxed the gold-medal performing boards of Seth Westcott during the 2010 and 2006 Olympic winter games, told youngsters who attended his ski waxing demonstration at the museum Thursday night that his work is more art than science. “It’s like being a chef,” said Bacca, who own the Waxroom in Ketchum. Still, he has a plethora of magnifying glasses, and thermome-

ters through which he examines snow crystals and calibrates snow temperature and air temperature and air humidity. “I’ll check my data and say, ‘This reminds me of Italy in ’94,” he said. “I love it, but I do sometimes feel like whether a snowboarder wins depends on me. It gets so tense I find myself drinking coffee like some people smoke cigarettes.” Museum Director Megan Lengyel, who used to work for Sun Valley Center for the Arts, said the museum took on snow as a project in conjunction with the arts center’s current multidisciplinary exhibition on water. “They wanted to expand their venues and I said, ‘Why not?” It’s amazing to see just how beautiful all the microscopic images of twp snowflakes are.”

Whiffenpoofs make a special stop

The Whiffenpoofs made a special stop to see Val Thomson at Copy & Print while they were in town. The surprise serenade was a thank you to Val for her time spent on their flyers, which were donated by Copy & Print. They actually made up a song just for her, that included words like “Hallelujah Val, she makes the world go ‘round.” Val requested one more song and they appeased with another fantastic melody.

hilip Seymour Hoffman is an amazing actor, as anyone who saw his turn as the novelist Truman Capote knows only too well. In the new film, Jack Goes Boating, he also tries his hand at directing and the end results are mixed. This is not due to a lack of effort. Hoffman pours his whole soul into the production, but the boat just doesn’t seem to float. The story about a middleaged loner trying to enter into a relationship is touching and reminiscence of the fifties’ classic, Marty. Hoffman plays the lead, with an addition of roughly 50 pounds to the frame he wore

DONeT MISS THIS EVENT

Wednesday 10.20.10

ARIES (March 21-April 19). You have ways of making people talk. You don’t even need to pressure anyone. They see your smile and feel your warmth and automatically tell you more than you wanted to know. Sometimes this annoys you, but mostly you realize the value of getting inside information. You really understand what’s important. TAURUS (April 20-May 20). It’s difficult to get your point across. Part of the problem is that you simply have too many points to convey now. Whittle your message down to one main idea at a time, and deal them out slowly. Make sure the first thing sinks in before you start the second. By the week’s end, you’ll be a master communicator. GEMINI (May 21-June 21). You have definite opinions about what is wrong and right -- for you. You are also openminded enough to realize that other people have their own standards, ethics and beliefs. You are able to listen to others without filtering what is being said through your own morality code. This is true empathy. CANCER (June 22-July 22). Your feelings are neither logical nor illogical. They just are. The same goes for your intuition. And when you have an intuitive hit that doesn’t fit into a logical structure or make sense in the socalled “real world,” it takes courage to follow it. Luckily, you are not short on courage or lacking in faith. LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). Some claim that taking the path of least resistance shows weakness. To you, only a fool would waste energy going against nature. That’s why you’ll flow where the energy leads you, staying open to new possibilities. You don’t need to prove your power. Yours is a quiet strength that will win out in the end. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). You are so loyal that it seems duplicitous to consider options other than the ones you have already chosen. However, in a few areas of life, a review is in order. Don’t be afraid. Either you’ll figure out a better choice, or you’ll be more certain than ever that you have already made the perfect decision for you. LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). Even though everyone who is currently in your life has something to offer you, in order to move a special project ahead, it will be necessary to expand your network. Identify the specific assets you need and what you are willing to trade for them. Resolve to work with

those who have comparable or greater resources. SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). You know how to hustle and succeed. However, this week you’ll find it quite refreshing not to have to sell yourself too hard. There’s a magical energy around you that does the work for you. All you have to do is show up with a big smile on your face, and people will start asking what makes you so happy. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21). It’s fantastic how things develop, although it might be overstating it to say that your life imitates art. “More often than not, life imitates craft. Who among us can say that our experience does not more closely resemble a macrame plant holder than it does a painting by Seurat?” Fran Lebowitz CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19). Relationship luck will be a frequent factor in your dealings, as you connect with just the sort of people who will highlight your skills, complement your lifestyle and make you feel accepted, useful and loved. Of course, some could argue that you made your own luck by being so genuinely interested in others. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). You’ll wrack up personal points by stretching yourself emotionally. It doesn’t have to be a grandiose achievement for you to derive great satisfaction in achieving it. Maybe you’re the only one who will count your achievements, but count they do. This knowledge of your abilities will boost your confidence. PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). You’ll take pride in honoring your commitments. You may not be able to do this in as timely a fashion as you would like, but what counts is doing it. When you’re straightforward, others adjust their expectations. In the future, you’ll use what you learned to make accurate projections and better manage your time. THIS WEEK’S BIRTHDAYS: This year, you’ll find unconventional channels to highlight your talents. Money follows. The lengths to which you go to research and study will be impressive to VIPs. You could even write a book about all you learn. November brings the opportunity to share beautiful, meaningful bits of life with one of your favorite people. December focuses on family and home improvements. Investigate your ancestry in the new year for insights into creating vibrant twp relationships and health.

Moving during air travel By KIM MAZIK, PT, HAILEY SPORT & SPINE

Y

ou’ve been hustled, pushed, pulled, delayed, cancelled, and rerouted and, finally, you’re on your way to enjoy the holidays with friends and family. Time to sit back, relax and enjoy the ride. Or so you think… With all of the media reports on the dangers of long flights in cramped quarters, I’d like to offer these tips for safer, more comfortable air travel. Although many of the aches that passengers experience are more uncomfortable than dangerous, there are some potentially serious health risks that can result from sitting for long periods of time on an airplane. Perhaps the most serious risk to those who fly is the development of deep vein thrombosis (DVT), sometimes called “coach class syndrome,” which results when blood clots form in the legs during four or more hours of confinement in a cramped seat. When the plane lands, small clots normally dissolve; however, larger clots may not. They might then break loose days or even weeks later, travel to the heart or lungs, and possibly cause death. It has been reported that, while this is a rare condition, it is believed to kill more than 100 air passengers a year worldwide. The American Physical Therapy Association (APTA) suggests that fliers not stay seated for the entire flight. Unless your flight is experiencing turbulence, I recommend going to the back of

the plane to do calf raises, mini squats or lunges for a minute or so every 1-2 hours to work the leg muscles, ease back pain and reduce the chances of DVT. And remember, if you do decide to get up and take a walk, wait until the captain turns off the ‘Fasten Seat Belt’ sign. When you have little room to move and stretch, do some simple, seated exercises to keep the blood flowing, the joints mobile, and the muscles relaxed while en route. And although not very attractive, compression stockings are proven to help reduce the risk of DVT, too. One additional consideration while flying is the dehydration that occurs from the high altitudes at which planes now fly, and the dry, pressurized cabin air. These conditions may lead to muscle cramping and aching, so drink plenty of water before and during the flight. Happy travels! twp

If you do use your credit card for holiday purchases this year, make sure you don’t overspend. Set a budget before you hit the stores and stick to it. To avoid excess monthly interest and finance charges, only spend as much as you know you can pay off within a few months — you don’t want to be paying for this year’s holiday purchases when next year’s shopping blitz begins. When you’re making purchases with check cards and credit cards, look for cards that offer some kind of rewards program so you can get something back for making your holiday purchases. U.S. Bank offers a program called FlexPerks, in which customers can earn points redeemable for merchandise, travel, gift cards and cash, on purchases they make with their U.S. Bank check card. If you play your cards right, holiday spending doesn’t have to be an unbearable burden on the pocketbook. Maintaining good financial habits can make a world of difference as you move into the New Year and for many twp years to come.

Emmy McCune said she did it because she wanted to see if she and her classmates could win the festival. “But I didn’t do it for winning,” she added. “I just wanted to do it.” “I learned it was fun and I learned that you shoot scenes out of order,” said Charlotte Woodham. Cora Schneider said she was excited about the chance to see herself and her classmates on the big screen in the Sun Valley Opera House. She paused. “But it’s going to be embarrassing to see myself on the big screen because I do a lot of embarrassing things in the twp movie.”

party will be start at 9:30 p.m. at The Roosevelt Grille, Main Street and Sun Valley Road. Admission to Saturday’s events is $15. Fitzpatrick said he and Brian Callahan, Sun Valley’s terrain park manager, got the idea for the film festival last spring when they noted that skiers and boarders between the ages of 12 and 20 were taking “phenomenal video” of their friends in the terrain park on Dollar Mountain. “We thought it would be neat to showcase this kind of thing going into Sun Valley’s 75th season,” said Fitzpatrick. Sun Valley hopes to make this an annual event, which will give young filmmakers the opportunity to shoot films this winter for next year’s festival. It might also induce professional filmmakers to shoot more footage at Sun Valley in coming years. “ ‘Eye Trip’ was shot all over the world. But the section on Sun Valley is phenomenal. The big jump lived up to its billing. The crowd went crazy,” said Fitzpatrick. Ketchum filmmaker Mark Oliver, a 28-year-old videographer who has filmed such events

There’s been a lot of great ski films come out of Sun Valley between Dick Barrymore and Warren Miller. And I think this will attract more people to come here and shoot. And that’s exciting.” twp

Regional History Dept., Esto Perpetua Award The Jeanne Lane Moritz Regional History Department (RHD) of the Community Library (CLA) received the Esto Perpetua Award by the Idaho State Historical Society. The award takes its name from Idaho’s state motto, translatable as, “Let It Be Perpetual.� The RHD has one of the most extensive collections of information on Ernest M. Hemingway in the nation, one of the country’s best ski information collections, an incredible collection of nearly 10,000 photographs from the area, and much more. The staff creates programs exploring topics such as Native American history, mining, the Sun Valley Resort, recreation in the Wood River Valley, and the influence of the expansion

of the Union Pacific Railroad, which are presented to local school groups and convention groups that visit the Valley. In 2009, RHD Librarian Sandra Hofferber created a new PowerPoint presentation, “Early History of the Wood River Valley: Search for Utopia or Urban Flight?� As a part of the library’s outreach to the education community in the Valley, library tours and presentations were offered to all Hemingway Elementary classes. The CLA had a foresight to begin this incredible collection of local and regional history materials, for making it accessible to the public in so many ways, but mainly for continuing the legacy of Jeanne Lane Moritz by actively collecting the rich history of the Wood River Valley.

Positive Partners Assistance Dogs, Inc., which custom trains dogs for people with disabilities, has received a donated van, thanks to part-time Sun Valley residents Dr. Mark and Deborah Slonim. “We are constantly transporting dogs and clients, as we work to train dogs to help people with specific disabilities,� said Fran Jewell, executive director of Positive Partners. “In the past, we have had to depend on our trainers and volunteers to provide their own vehicles. This is a wonderful gift from the Slonims, and it will make it much easier for everyone.� Positive Partners Assistance Dogs trains four types of service or assistance dogs: mobility dogs for people who need balance and assistance climbing stairs or bending over; hearing assistance dogs; guide guides for the visually impaired; and wheelchair assistance dogs. Each service dog is custom trained for the individual. They currently are working with the Women’s Auxiliary of American Legion David Ketchum Post 15 to train a service dog for a disabled Idaho veteran. The cost of training a service dog is approximately $25,000, and the auxiliary already has raised more than half. The veteran has not yet been selected. For more information or to make a donation, go to the Positive Partners Assistance Dogs website at www. ppadi.org or call (208) 721-1309.

Sustain Blaine and the Economic Development Corp. (EDC) announced today the formation of a steering committee and working group to pursue official Olympic designation of the greater Sun Valley area as a training site for Olympic and Paralympic cross-country skiing. This effort capitalizes on the area’s 200 kilometers of Nordic trails, which have already been used for training by Olympic athletes along with national and international teams. Gaining official Olympic designation will offer access to the U.S. Olympic corporate sponsors, opening new sources of funding to host additional Nordic competitions, training camps and other events. Such activities will bring incremental business to our area and further enhance its “Nordic Town, USA� brand. The steering committee and working group just formed are tasked with compiling the necessary application to the U.S. Olympic Committee and its national governing bodies. They aim to complete and submit the application in April 2011. The newly seated steering committee will advise the working group throughout development of the application and related business plan. Currently there are two certified Nordic Olympic training centers in the U.S. The U.S Olympic Committee and the national governing bodies for Nordic and Paralympic Nordic sports have indicated a strong desire to designate another location and have encouraged this application.

Anyone in the community can become a member of the care team by providing a service based on their skills and interests. Quilting Goodness has offered their talents, time and labor to provide quilts for wounded warriors. They have made quilts for warriors that are awaiting babies, receiving surgeries, or hospitalized for mental health issues. Nothing says love and caring like a beautiful handmade quilt. To serve wounded warriors, please contact Kate Weihe at 720-8770 or e-mail her at kate@svasp.org

plastic and paper tableware. Store, reuse and recycle your Halloween decorations for next year. Once the pumpkins have been carved and the apples bobbed, they can be used in pies, soups, or other dishes. Roast the pumpkin seeds or give them to the birds. Put your pumpkins in your composting bin; they are biodegradable and a great source of nutrients. If you don’t have a composting area, now is a great time to start one! Teach your children. Teach them not to litter. Take a long walk. Look up at the night sky. Look at the moon. Remember, it’s Halloween. Happy Halloween from the ERC! Check www.ecomall.com/ greenshopping/eshallow.htm.

onsumers are expected to spend $3.12 billion on candy for Halloween. Here are some tips to help you reduce waste and have a great holiday! Have trick-or-treaters carry reusable bags or pillowcases instead of plastic bags. Make your own costumes from old clothes; buy from thrift stores or yard sales; trade costumes with friends. Don’t buy readymade. Choose treats that use little or no packaging, instead of candy; use colorful pencils, crayons, funky erasers, or other inexpensive items. Stay close to home and walk from house to house to avoid fuel consumption. Make your own treats and your own decorations. Host a Halloween party that features organic, pesticide-free apples and pumpkins. Use reusable dishes, cups and napkins instead of disposable

The Sawtooth Botanical Garden has decided to allow contestants to enter scarecrows until Halloween (Sunday, Oct. 31). All you have to do is gather with friends and family, pull out some creativity, old clothes and hay, submit your scarecrow and registration form to the SBG, and wait to become a winner of spectacular prizes! Scarecrows have been friends to farmers and gardeners alike for thousands of years. Be a part of this great tradition by submitting your scarecrow today. For more information or to download a registration form, go to http://www.sbgarden.org/children.html or call Teresa at (208) 726-9358. Prizes have been donated by Zynergy, Zou 75, nexStage Theatre, Sego, Blaine County Recreation District, Big Wood 4 Cinemas, Gary Wilson of Infininaut, and Business as Usual.

Ask the Guys Dear Classified Guys, It used to be that cars rusted out long before the engines wore out. But today's cars seem to last much longer. For the most part, that's good news. Except now I find myself worrying about other parts that wear out at high miles. Since I'm in the market for a car again, timing belts seem to be my new stumbling block. In my price range, cars tend to near the 75K mark and many of them still haven't had their timing belt replaced. I know this is a good preventive maintenance item, but I know it can be expensive. However, I also believe in the philosophy of "if it ain't broke, don't fix it!" I know it's a gamble not to replace the timing belt, but do you have any idea how often they break? And if they do, will it damage the engine or is it just one of those things where I call AAA?

• • • Carry: "If it ain't broke, don't fix it" is a philosophy that may work for some things, but not typically car repairs. For instance, you wouldn't wait for your brakes to stop working before you fixed them! And the timing belt is very similar.

Fast Facts Costly Ride

Duane “Cash” Holze & Todd “Carry” Holze 10/17/10 ©2010 The Classified Guys®

Cash: Most auto manufacturers recommend having the timing belt replaced between 60 to 100k miles depending on the model of the vehicle. And although the preventative maintenance repair can be expensive, it's well worth the investment. Carry: A vehicle's timing belt is required to drive the camshaft. When it breaks, the motor will essentially come to a halt. The chance of repairing the engine, however, depends on whether the vehicle is an "interference" or "non-interference" type engine. The difference involves the amount of space between the pistons and the valves. Cash: On an "interference"

type engine, this space is minimal. When a timing belt breaks, the piston will make contact with the valve, ruin your engine and turn your car into a lovely piece of rolling scrap metal. "Non-interference" type engines have more space between the pistons and valves and are therefore less likely to cause severe damage. Carry: In either case, replacing a timing belt as scheduled by the manufacturer will save you a lot of headaches. If you're finding that most cars you're interested in need the timing belt replaced, take the cost of repair into account when making your offer. That way you'll save not only on the purchase price, but also the future cost of towing!

According to the Bureau of Labor and Statistics, owning a car is the second largest household expense for most families. About 17% of the average household income is directed toward maintaining and driving the family vehicle. This is more than is spent on food (13%), utilities (7%), entertainment (5%) or clothing (4%). However, it's still less than the largest household expense (34%) which is spent to maintain housing such as your rent or home mortgage.

Fill'er Up

The American Automobile Association has been compiling statistics on the cost of driving since 1950, taking into account everything from gas and maintenance to registration, loans and depreciation. Their most recent calculations estimate the average person spends about $9,641 per year to cruise around town. The costs do vary based on the number of miles driven and the type of car owned. A small sedan driven 15,000 miles per year can cost around 41 cents per mile, but an SUV driven the same miles averages about 66 cents per mile.

Reader Humor Loose Connection

I recently noticed that my neighbor had a different car in his driveway every few days. When I met him one day on my way to work, I curiously asked about his multiple modes of transportation. He told me that the cars were not actually his, but loaner cars from the dealership while his is being repaired. "I've been having intermittent problems with my car for a few weeks. I bring it in and they give me these loaners to drive in the meantime." "Intermittent problems are the worst," I sympathized. "Do you think it's electrical or mechanical?" "Not sure," he smiled. "It changes every time my wife drives it!" (Thanks to Barry G.)

Women in Business 2nd Annual

A Word From us… Floral Designers

Business Owner & Retail Employees

T

his is theweeklypaper’s second annual ‘Women in Business’ special section and, once again, it is time for us to be inspired by the women who continue to not only work in our Valley, but who thrive. As you browse through the pages of this paper, take note of the dedication, creativity and intuition demonstrated by these brave entrepreneurs who have proven year after year how successful businesses are run. The phenomenal growth of women-owned businesses has made headlines for three decades—women consistently have been launching new enterprises at twice the rate of men, and their growth rates of employment and revenue have outpaced the economy. More than a quarter of a million women in the U.S. own and lead businesses with annual revenue topping $1 million—and many of these businesses are multimillion-dollar enterprises. Clearly, many women have the vision, capacity and perseverance to build thriving companies. Although the ‘Women in Business’ feature section only represents our Valley and a small portion of the national ‘women in business’ overall picture, it is nonetheless an ideal example of the type of leadership and fortitude women contribute to our local and national economy on a daily basis. twp

essica Kisiel, posture alignment therapist, coach and trainer, is owner of Aligned Play. Kisiel discovered the Wood River Valley through participation in the 1999 Boulder Mountain Tour and has been trying to move here ever since! Over 10 years later, she has a nearly completed house in Hailey and is visiting regularly to bring The Egoscue MethodÂŽ of posture alignment therapy to the community. According to Kisiel, Severe back pain and degenerative hips ended my professional mountain biking career. Faced with declining movement abilities, increasing pain and an imminent hip replacement when I was old enough or hurt enough, I was determined to seek out alternatives. The Egoscue MethodÂŽ

got me back on my bike. It also expanded my exercise opportunities. Running, prohibited by my doctor following my first of three knee surgeries, is now a regular part of my routine. Earning a Master’s degree in exercise science, Kisiel worked in various wellness areas, including fitness, cardiac rehabilitation, health promotion, personal training, sports and wellness coaching, ergonomics and crosscountry ski instruction. It wasn’t until she went through her own pain and recovery experience and learned The Egoscue MethodŽ that she found her passion and knew how she was supposed to serve others. She now incorporates posture and function into all of her services. Says Kisiel, “I’ve been there, and understand how important being physically active is for life

aren Fuller, owner of Aware LLC, believes that all women deserve to have the birth they desire, a strong support system throughout the childbearing year, and safe, effective, natural products for themselves and their babies. She is a DONA-certified birth doula, certified prenatal massage therapist, infant massage instructor and aspiring herbalist, specializing in women’s health. While studying as an herbalist, Maren supported her sister through the birth of her fourth child, and realized that there were many amazing herbal products not readily available to pregnant women and new moms. She set out to formulate and produce these missing items for her family with only the highest

quality, organic ingredients. The desire to share these with all pregnant women and their families is the reason for her new line, which includes postpartum salves, breast oil, infant massage oils and many more essential remedies. Maren opened her massage office in Boise in 2005, then moved to Ketchum in 2007 to expand the business and include more aspects of service and support for pregnant women in the Valley. She assists in births at home as well as at St. Luke’s in Ketchum and Boise. Maren also offers in-home massage services throughout the Valley, as well as private and group infant massage classes for parents and their babies. Her products are available in several locations

Breast Cancer Awareness Jordan Sachs and Kami Norbom have crossed the threshold into young womanhood as they learn what it’s like to pursue a passion on behalf of others.

Girl Scouts help NAMI

ami Norbom and Jordan Sachs started out to earn a Girl Scout badge. When it’s all said and done, the two 11-year-olds will have helped those with mental illness to live a normal life. Norbom and Sachs, both sixth-graders at The Community School, have been selling raffle tickets at Atkinsons’ Market in Ketchum and Hailey for chances to win an iPOD or a laptop computer, as well as other prizes, including a personal pet portrait taken by dog trainer Fran Jewell. But the $4,000 the girls hope to collect will also pay for a class offered by the Wood River Chapter of NAMI (National Alliance on Mental Illness.) They have raised more than $1,500 so far by selling the $1 raffle tickets (25 for $20). “NAMI is very important for people,” said Norbom, who belongs to Julie Lynn’s Troop 78. “It’s important to people who live here because there isn’t any other place for people with mental illness.” Norbom chose to help NAMI after watching her mother Wendy Norbom struggle with an anxiety disorder. Wendy Norbom has recovered with the help of a variety of therapies. And she now volunteers with NAMI, coordinating classes and other projects to help others with various types of mental illness.

“NAMI is very important for people.” –Kami Norbom Sixth Grader and Girl Scout

“The kids wanted to do something about people who are different but don’t look different. And it’s cool because they’re educating the community about mental illness in the process,” said Wendy Norbom. “They want to break the stigma of mental illness and show the community that people with mental illness deserve the same amount of compassion and health care that people with cancer and other diseases do.” Those with mental illness have had something happen to their brain, said Kami Norbom: “They can’t help it—it’s like breaking your arm. And it’s a scary disease because sometimes people can’t understand it and they’re afraid of it. If people get help, they can live a fine life.” “I’ve learned from doing this that it’s hard to have mental illness because people make fun of you. And that makes me sad,” added Sachs. “But there are programs, classes, groups these people can go to. And we’re trying to help with that. For more information, call NAMI at 309-1987. twp

Health and wholeness Family medicine as a calling By BALI SZABO

W

ith the Healthcare Reform Law about 30 million more Americans will get access to Primary Healthcare providers. I once asked my former doctor Barbee at the St. Luke’s Hailey Clinic how many patients he had. His nonchalant answer was 2,000. Wow! I thought I’d sit down with Dr. Barbee’s replacement, Dr. Julie Lyons, now at St. Luke’s in Hailey to get her thoughts on this and other subjects. First, I chatted with St.Luke’s Marketing/PR Coordinator Jenny Haynes. She said that the Valley was very fortunate, unlike the rest of the rural Mountain West. St. Luke’s has 8 Primary Care physicians servicing the needs of 14,000 people. That’s an excellent per capita ratio, better than Boise’s. There are also several midlevel Nurse Practitioners and Physician’s Assistants to help with the case load. If anything, there’s a shortage of specialists here. The area’s amenities are top notch, and we have little trouble attracting physicians, but the demand just isn’t here for specialists. For instance, St. Luke’s doesn’t have an attending Pediatrician, and the OBGYN Clinic, family practice doctors and nurse practitioners handle the births. Try and find an ophthalmologist in Idaho! Dr. Lyons, who is both the editor, Leslie Thompson’s and my doctor, has been here for a year. She’s young, bright, an enthusiastic advocate for her chosen field. She confirmed that only about 30 percent of Med. School graduates pursue Family Medicine, and that number is declining, mostly due to the pay discrepancies. A specialist can

make three times as much. She did point out that more and more women are choosing Primary Care practice. It’s not always about the money. A former teacher, Dr. Lyons bonded with several of her teachers at Oregon Health Sciences University, the no.2 Primary Care teaching facility in the U.S. As she was mentored, she now mentors students doing summer internships at St. Luke’s. It’s her firm belief that Primary Care Family Medicine is the way medicine should be practiced, that there’s more to wellness than the liver or your heart. An emphasis on wellness means considering the whole patient, the social, familial and emotional aspects of their lives. She sees Primary Care’s mission, and her mission, as making and keeping people healthy by always looking at the big picture. As a former teacher, she partners with her patients, gives them ‘homework’, gets them involved with their own health, which is more than just writing a prescription — the ‘take two aspirins and call me in the morning’ approach. She’s enthusiastic and hopeful about

Healthcare Reform, because it puts preventive care front and center, where it should be. This is her key to wellness. (She was all for the book, The Empowered Patient.) Dr. Lyons partners informally with Dr. Tom Archie, who is double-boarded in Primary Care and integrated Homeopathic Medicine. She sees alternative therapies as having a large role in healing. Of course that’s pertinent to a Valley full of people pursuing alternative ideas and lifestyles. One thing she loves about her practice is that she never knows, from one patient to the next, what’s coming. We keep her on her toes. Primary Care Family Medicine has come a long way from the days of the General Practitioner. In reality, it has become a specialty because it requires several years of residency training. Dr. Julie Lyons may be young, but her extensive training radiates from her conversation, and her holistic approach to people is well suited to her chosen field. By the way, she highly recommends FamilyDoctor.org for twp questions and concerns.

n 1995, Sarah Long left an executive position to pursue a career as an artist. She opened Bella Cosa Studio in Pacific Grove, Calif., and focused primarily on hand-painted furniture, clothing and ceramics. Soon after moving to Vermont in 1996, Sarah was invited to teach and show her work at Frog Hollow, the main gallery of the Vermont State Craft Center. In 2001, she returned to the Monterey Peninsula and to her original studio location in Pacific Grove. An art class at Monterey Peninsula College ignited her passion for sculpture. She refined her talent under the guidance of renowned artists Sue Jacobsen, Paul Luccesi and Peter Rubino.

In 2007, Sarah was invited to present a set of bronze relief wall tiles to the board of directors of the Los Angeles County Museum of Art. Today, she works in various sculpting mediums: ceramic, concrete, plaster, bronze and wood. Her work is always figurative, with an abstract quality that adds the right measure of mysterious beauty. Her current series of vessels incorporate or feature the face of a woman emerging from several of those mediums. In her spare time, Sarah enjoys sculpting, walking, spending time with her children and gardening. Bella Cosa is a completely

New census data reinforces economic power of women-owned business in the U.S. Recent results released by the U. S. Census Bureau from the 2007 Survey of Business Owners (SBO) show an increase of 20.1 percent in women-owned businesses since 2002, accounting for 7.8 million non-farm U. S. businesses. In 2007, women-owned firms held 28.7 percent of all non-farm businesses in the United States, 6.4 percent of total employment and 4.0 percent of total receipts. The SBO Survey defines women-owned businesses as firms in which women own 51 percent or more of the stock or equity of the business. A 2010 Member Survey by the National Association of Women Business Owners (NAWBO) indicates the trend will continue, not only in women starting new businesses, but also in the growth and expansion of existing businesses. The NAWBO survey shows 34 percent of members expected to hire new workers and 21 percent planned

to increase capital investment in 2010. This is good news for the women’s business community and the economy at large. “In the past decade, the number of privately owned companies started by women in America has increased twice as fast as the number owned by men,� said NAWBO President and CEO Helen Han. “Even in the current business landscape where all businesses are forced to do more with less, and for less, women business owners are holding their own and contributing significantly to the overall economy.� NAWBO believes there are many reasons for the success of womenowned businesses. “Women business owners are often very resilient because of the challenges they face in starting and growing their businesses,� said NAWBO Chair Kelly Scanlon. “Women also have a natural aptitude

for business marketing and tend to be more creative and grassroots in their campaigns—all key to helping them thrive.� In 2007, 31.9 percent of womenowned firms operated in the repair, maintenance, personal and laundry services industries and the health care and social assistance industries. Women-owned firms accounted for 45.2 percent of all U.S. businesses in these industries. Wholesale trade and retail trade accounted for 36.2 percent of women-owned business revenue. In 2007, there were 911,285 women-owned employer firms. These firms employed 7.6 million persons with a total payroll of $218.1 billion, an increase of 6.2 percent and 25.7 percent respectively from 2002. In 2007, these firms generated $1.0 trillion in receipts, an increase of 25.9 percent. For complete data, go to http:// www.census.gov/econ/sbo/.

orn in Hailey and now raising a family here my love of helping others has brought me to own two great businesses here in the valley. Blaine County Fitness Center has been owned and operated by my family for Krista Gehrke and her son Jesse. seven years now. I am passionate about our community and strive to provide a positive place for people to exercise and help them work towards their optimum health.

We offer a wide variety of classes; have separate workout rooms with our cardio and weight machines, and also the valley’s only racquetball court.

urves is not just your grandma’s gym! When women join Curves, one of the most common comments is “this is harder than it looks!� That’s because the Curves circuit is made up of resistance machines that work every major muscle group, two muscles at a time. These hydraulic machines work as hard as you do, giving you a superior strength and cardio workout in just 30 minutes without the hassle of weights, delays or confusion many encounter in a traditional gym. Especially here in the Wood River Valley, where most women hike, walk, bike, and ski, which are all great aerobic activities. Developing full body muscle strength is the key to overall fitness. Muscle burns fat, and in combination with the Curves Weight Management Program, women learn how to increase their metabolic rate, burn fat, and retain muscle mass. Research also shows that Curves reduces high blood pressure, cholesterol, osteoporosis, depression, stress and increases overall

happiness. Curves is ideal for women and girls who want a full body workout in 30 minutes that’s simple, fun, safe and easily adaptable for all ages, abilities, and physical conditions. Curves trainers personally assist members set and achieve goals, while the members work out with music,

friends and conversation. If you are looking for a supportive environment in which to work out, learn how to get strong, stay strong and achieve your goals, Curves is your answer! Curves – the perfect complement to your Wood River lifestyle. twp

She is an outdoor enthusiast and enjoys skiing, mountain biking, hiking and more. She received her doctorate in chiropractic in 1991. From there, Dr. Maria has continued her education and research in many areas of natural Dr. Maria Maricich healing and holistic medicine. Her business, Quantum Healing Arts, has been in operation for 20 years, specializing in Functional Medicine and Light Touch Chiropractic. Functional medicine deals with prevention and underlying causes, instead of symptoms. It is a science- based system, grounded in biochemistry. We look at the whole person and their whole life story to determine the best treatment. We see health as positive vitality – not just the absence of disease. Many people are treated with supplements, homeopathics or bioenergetic medicine. Often lifestyle changes are recommended. Occasionally we work in conjunction with a patient’s primary physician to determine the course of action. The chiropractic method we use is called Network Spinal Analysis and is done by a light touch application instead of the typical ‘cracking’ type manipulation. It is great for all kinds of back and neck problems and, more importantly, it also reduces the overall effects of stress on the nervous system. Dr. Maria also does weight-loss counseling, hormone balancing and allergy desensitizing. Children and adults alike can benefit from all our services. twp the

f you’ve been inside Hailey Coffee Co., you know how appetizing the front counter can be — mixed with rich smells of espresso and tea and the wonderful sight and smells of the delicious baked goods. You could walk in any day and see the smiling faces of owner Carrie Morgridge and her friendly baristas up front, but behind-thescenes is their baker, Jennifer Parnell who makes everything from scones and breads, to pound cakes and beautifully decorated sugar cookies. Jennifer lived here briefly in the early ’70s. After 30 years of working for the airlines, doing everything from Jennifer Parnell, baker at Hailey Coftickets, baggage, reser- fee Co., and her Shelter dog, Trigger. vations and customer service, she came back to the Valley to retire five years ago — something she’d always dreamed she’d do. After about a year of keeping herself entertained with arts and crafts, hiking, camping and cross-country skiing, she realized she needed to do something more. Having always loved to bake – something she learned as a child from her mother – she answered an ad for a part-time baking position with Hailey Coffee Co., and with heavy supply and demand, it has grown to full-time from there. Jennifer is extremely proud and supportive of her 26year-old son, Sean, who lives in L.A. and makes a living as a professional dancer. Of her work, she says “Hailey Coffee Co. is a great place to work and Carrie is awesome.” As for her favorite goodie to nibble on, she loves the scones — especially the cheddar chive ones. twp

I have successfully negotiated over 540 closed deals in my career. I enjoy the active lifestyle the Wood River Valley offers, including skiing, snowmobiling, hiking, biking, bowling, football, hockey, and riding my 2005 Heritage Soft-tail Harley-Davidson, and traveling anywhere I can put my toes in the sand!

o Murray, principal in Jo Murray Public Relations, opened a Ketchum office in 2002 after 20 years in the San Francisco Bay Area. Today, she helps clients in the Wood River Valley, Boise and San Francisco Bay Area achieve coverage in regional and national news media. “People sometimes ask if I have a specialty in terms of subject matter,” said Murray, a former reporter and editor at the Oakland (Calif.) Tribune. “My specialty is understanding how editors think, and being able to recognize what kind of stories will both appeal to editors and benefit the client. “I thrive on the variety of working with clients in fields ranging from dog food and horse feed to insurance to real estate to corporate compensation analysis,” she added. Within the past year she has helped clients gain coverage in media ranging from The New York Times to Business Insurance to Yahoo! News, as well as the Sun Valley area media. Although the rise of Internet publications and social media has increased the opportunities for news coverage significantly, she noted, the basic principles remain the same. “You need to get your audience’s attention quickly, whether it’s a youtube video or a major newspaper.” Murray is also founding president of the Wood River Women’s Charitable Foundation, a giving circle that has raised more than $400,000 for Blaine County charities.

Wells, a Tru Spa hair stylist who reconstructs cashmere accessories for her A:nu boutique in Ketchum’s 511 Building, updates a turtleneck that’s never been worn into a cardigan sweater with a cowl neck. She jazzes up a frumpy cocktail dress with a few clips of the scissors. And she slashes the arms of a denim jacket, turning it into a piece de resistance that turns heads. On Saturday Wells will share her talents by chairing The Advocates’ Fashion Show. The show, which starts at 6 p.m. at the nexStage Theatre in Ketchum, will feature the top 20 entries in The Advocates Attic Redesign Contest. “The show will show you how you can buy something at a second-hand store like The Advocates Attic, and make it your own, make it an original,” said Leigh Barer, development director for The Advocates for Survivors of Domestic Violence and Sexual Assault. “It’s all about taking something old and putting a new spin on it. It’s a great way to reinvent your wardrobe, especially in tough economic times like these.” The show sporting timeless, renewable style on the catwalk will feature Cameron Silver—a friend of Sun Valley resident Peggy Elliott Goldwyn—as special guest judge and commentator. Silver is a vintage coutour expert and owner of the upscale DECADES boutiques in Los Angeles and London. Though a vintage specialist, he is widely recognized for his impact on what designers send out on the catwalk in Paris and New York and the red carpet in Hollywood. Named one of Time magazine’s “25 Most influential Names and Faces in Fashion,” he will highlight trends during Saturday’s show and offer tips for spotting something fabulous while shopping. Silver will also participate in an exclusive VIP reception for 40 after the show at the Cornerstone Bar and Grill. The reception will feature a signature Cameron Silver cocktail. The fashion show, emceed by Company of Fools’ artist Denise Simone, will feature cocktails, appetizers, a raffle and post-

Wells said the opportunities her store has given her to meet various women made her aware of the need for education about the prevention of domestic and dating violence. “I have two young daughters and I feel very strongly about making them more aware of the various causes they can contribute to,” she said. “Plus, I know community awareness and involvement are vital to keeping our children safe and confident so they can build healthy relationships.” twp

lmost every athlete has a coach to help achieve peak performance. A life coach helps the rest of us be all that we can be, and find our own personal power,� says Connie Love. Love’s advice on coping with teens on prom night has been quoted in newspapers across the country. Her suggestions on coping with aging parents have been featured on Yahoo! News. People have hired life coaches, Love explains, to help improve relationships with family and friends; leave a bad marriage and become self-supporting; start a new career or improve performance in their present career; and to help make decisions

on what they really want to do and then create a plan to reach their goals. “A life coach gives you a boost when you need encouragement, feedback when you need to adjust your plan, and reinforcement when you are moving in the right direction,� Love said. “Most of all, a life coach insists on accountability, helping you define your true goals in all aspects of your life.� Love particularly enjoys working with women in transition.

Rep. Wendy Jaquet (D), Ketchum, calls for tax commission reform Idaho State Representative Wendy Jaquet (D), Ketchum, announced today that she will introduce legislation during the next session of the Idaho Legislature that will bring the troubled and controversial State Tax Commission into the 21st century. Jaquet, a former member of the House Revenue and Taxation Committee and now a member of the Legislature’s budget writing committee, said Idaho taxpayers are tired of the politics of the commission and even more concerned about the widespread and persistent allegations of favoritism

and sweetheart deals. “It is high time to professionalize the commission,� Jaquet said. “Four political appointees lead the commission, two Democrats and two Republicans, with the chair being appointed by the governor,� said Jaquet. “The governor appoints the chairman, but he appears unwilling or unable to get his long-time political associate to address the obvious mismanagement at the commission. It is time for the Legislature to act,� Jaquet said. Prior to Governor Phil Batt’s deci-

sion to appoint the chair, the chair was chosen by the four commissioners. “We now have a 1950’s model, with no accountability except to a politicallyelected governor who won’t take action,� she said. “It is time to appoint a professional administrator who would not be tied to special interests.� Jaquet said she decided to act when it became obvious that the current administration was not taking steps to address recent whistleblower allegations of favoritism and, in fact, seems perfectly comfortable with the status quo.

A woman is like a tea bag: you can’t tell how strong she is until you put her in hot water.

She is currently the sole owner and broker of Mortgage Solutions, located in Bellevue, and continues to provide Ana Torres excellent service to the community. Ana’s mortgage lending expertise allows her to deliver quick and precise solutions to homebuyers and homeowners that best suit their personal circumstances. Asked what makes her company unique, Ana replies, “I believe that my success in mortgage lending comes from people who have given me the opportunity to provide a service that is above and beyond what they have experienced or expect from other loan professionals. All I can offer is my mortgage experience, advice, and education to my clients. My experience comes from multiple years of work in the mortgage lending business. I am constantly searching for ways to become more knowledgeable about mortgage products to better serve my clients. I pride myself on handling every loan with integrity and quality, and my willingness to go the extra mile for my clients. “I am looking forward to the challenges ahead of us in these tough economic times and the opportunity to continue originating quality loans for my existing and new customers.” twp

T

Our Purpose is to provide support & empowerment for the mentally ill & their Executive Director Wendy Norbom families, with equal ac- and her daughter Kami. cess to medical, social, economic, legal and spiritual resources within our community. We are the only organization of its kind in our valley. Because of the recent closure of our local Health and Welfare Office, our resources are heavily burdened. Our programs are most easily described as two branches of one tree; the experiences of someone with mental illness differ greatly from someone who is a caregiver or family member of someone with mental illness. We offer a 12-week Family-to-Family Program open to anyone wishing to increase their knowledge on mental illness to better understand the journey of their family member, coworker or friend. To supplement this is our biweekly Support Group that meets at St. Charles Church in Hailey every first and third Wednesdays from 6 to 7:30 p.m. For Peers, we offer a 10 wk Peer-to-Peer Program, a unique, experiential learning program for people with mental illness who are interested in connecting with & supporting each other in establishing and maintaining wellness. This course is led by Peer mentors & is held in a safe & compassionate environment. We have just launched our Connection program recovery support group that meets weekly at St. Luke’s Community Health Center every Monday evening from 6:30 to 8 p.m. This group is in a drop-in format however you must have a mental illness to attend. twp

When I went to Japan in my mid-20s, I learned to read Japanese in one week. Yes, only one week! I didn’t understand what I was reading at first, but that came soon enough. The reason I could learn Japanese so easily is because they developed a system so that every citizen could read and contribute to society. Ninetynine percent of Japanese people can read. Studies show that nearly 40 percent of Americans are challenged readers. Go to proliteracyworldwide and check out our literacy rate for yourself. I created Nardagani (sounds like Origami) like the Japanese system so that reading English would be easy. When you go to my website, nardagani.com, and learn the 12 symbols of Nardagani, you will see why reading English is so very complicated.

But there is no place like home!� Cindy grew up in Portland, Ore., on a dead-end street, where she made friends with Shelley Enyart. Her father was a famous hairdresser,

I’ve come a long way since those days and now I’ve come full circle! Fast forward 12 years. My first child was my business‌and then along came Sierra Sophia. I called the doctor from the shop after I was in labor to say it would be awhile until I could get there, since I had to make some bouquets and more “deliveries.â€? Sierra was born that snowy night in February of 1986. At 6, Sierra discovered her passion – figure skating – and by 16, she left family, home and pets to pursue her dream as a competitive figure skater, later becoming the top skater from the state of Idaho, and ranked fifth on the West Coast of the USA. After growing up on the counter in a basket, some 24

I’ve been in the Valley off and on since 1980 and I’m a proud alum of Wood River High. In my spare time I love to dance! I’m also a graduate of Cornish College of the Arts and the founder of Dirty Feet Dance Company, the Valley’s only professional dance group. We are an eclectic group of dancers and choreographers, performing original works from many styles, such as contemporary and belly dance. Our next show is November 13-14 at The Liberty Theatre in Hailey. We’re featuring choreography to music from “Chicago”. Check it out! I was introduced to Pilates at 16 to correct some faulty movement patterns and to gain greater strength and awareness of my body in my dancing. Pilates has helped me to find fluid control in movement and keeps me injury-free. I loved the work so much that I went for my certification, completing it in 2000. Pure Body Pilates’s greatest asset is its instructors. All of us are trained in different styles and come from very different backgrounds. We each teach our own special blend of all we have learned, making it possible for our clients to find the perfect instructor for exactly what they need and receive very specialized attention. And, most of all, we love what we do! It is a joy to share such a unique way to exercise with the Valley. twp

ebecca Mitchell, owner of Sun Valley Fabric Granary, has been a parttime resident of the Wood River Valley for the past 15 years – full time for the past five years. After 35 years as an operating room nurse, Mitchell turned her quilting hobby into a new career by purchasing Hailey’s quilt shop. After renovating the building that formerly housed Wood River Furniture and Antiques, she moved the shop to the current location on Main Street. The renovation, designed to preserve the integrity of the original building, also provides a unique backdrop to display beautiful quilts, patterns and books. Says Mitchell, “I gain inspiration and keep informed about new fabric trends by traveling to international quilt markets. I also find seminars specifically designed for fabric and quilt shop owners very beneficial.” Mitchell considers it an honor to be the only quilting/fabric store in the Wood River Valley. She works hard to maintain a large inventory to meet the needs of the local community, offering a wide range of sewing notions, patterns, books, and quilting classes. Mitchell’s goal is to provide patterns and fabrics unique to this area to inspire loyal local customers and the many tourists who frequent her shop. Sun Valley Fabric Granary features popular fabrics by

several internationally-known fabric artists, such as Amy Butler and Kaffe Fassett. According to Mitchell, “We are very fortunate to have instructors who teach the latest techniques in hand-appliqué and machine-pieced projects. We frequently display new quilts, usually sewn by local quilters, to showcase the wealth of artistic talent in the Wood River Valley, and to provide creative inspiration and encouragement to those who love ‘all things fabric’.” In her spare time, Mitchell enjoys traveling with her husband, relaxing with family and friends, reading, sewing, fishing and laughing with her 12 grandchildren – and still manages to spend plenty of time quilting! twp

ocial Security will not – and was never designed to – provide all of the income you’ll need to live comfortably during retirement. At best, your income from Social Security will supplement that from other sources. So Lori Nurge if you’re planning to factor Social Security into your retirement plan – regardless of whether you’re a man or a woman – you should learn all you can about how to enhance your benefits and how much income you may need from other sources to be financially comfortable during your retirement years. But for females, there are some unique factors to consider in the equation. Because Social Security generally has annual costof-living adjustments, you have an inflation-protected benefit for as long as you live — and for women, those increases are vital since women generally live longer than men. In addition, Social Security provides dependent benefits to spouses, divorced spouses, elderly widows and widows with young children. Consider these numbers released by the Social Security Administration Office of Research and Statistics: • Women who reach age 65 need to prepare for approximately 20 years of living expenses. In 2007, women represented 57 percent of all Social Security beneficiaries age 62 and older and approximately 69 percent of beneficiaries age 85 and older. • The average annual Social Security income received by women 65 years and older was $10,685, compared to $14,055 for men. • For unmarried women age 65 and older (including widows), Social Security comprised 48 percent of their total income in 2007. • In 2004, statistics showed that only 24 percent of unmarried women aged 65 or older were receiving their own pensions (either as a retired worker or survivor), compared to 30 percent of men. Obviously, the lack of pensions is directly related to spending time out of the workforce, working at small companies that lack employer-sponsored benefit programs and holding part-time positions. On average, women spend 12 years out of the workforce caring for others* — thereby reducing their projected Social Security benefits. Your retirement plan needs to factor in ways to offset this gap – be sure to invest in your employer’s retirement and pension plans if these benefits are offered. Finally, research by the Social Security Administration found that elderly women are less likely than elderly men to have significant income from private pensions. In contrast, Social Security benefits comprised 37 percent of unmarried elderly men’s retirement income and 30 percent of elderly couples’ income. And did you know that 47 percent of unmarried elderly women depended on Social Security for 90 percent or more of their income? These numbers strongly suggest that women need to get retirement plans in place so that Social Security benefits are an income supplement and not a mainstay. To help you determine a retirement strategy that is the most beneficial for your personal financial situation, talk with your Finantwp cial Advisor. *Source: Dartmouth-Hitchcock Medical Center, 2009 This article was written by Wells Fargo Advisors and provided courtesy of Lori Nurge, CERTIFIED FINANCIAL PLANNER™, First Vice President – Investments, in the Courtyard Building in Ketchum at 725-2146.

M

arilee Hansen, owner of Worth Repeating Consignment, has lived in the Valley for 42 years. She has owned Worth Repeating – now in its spacious new location at 471 N. Leadville Ave., in Ketchum – for the past six years.  Marilee came to the Valley right out of high school with a group of friends from Manhattan Beach, Calif. She arrived here when she was 18, with basically no experience, and so worked at, as she says, “practically every restaurant and bar in this town� for 35 years.  Her first home was a tepee up Twin Creeks in Elkhorn (before Twin Creeks even existed!). She cocktailed at Whiskey’s, and occasionally rode her horse to work, tying her up outside on Main Street. About six years ago Marilee decided to follow her passion for collecting fun and eclectic things, designing and, of course, fashion, and purchased Worth Repeating.  Her business is unique in that she carries furniture, art AND clothing and jewelry with lots of accessories. In what little spare time she has, Marilee loves to be outdoors, mountain biking, walking with her “rescue� dogs, taking yoga classes at the Y, and enjoying dinner and movies with friends. twp
