Arts Strategists To Hold PowWow In Sun Valley STORY AND PHOTO BY KAREN BOSSICK

mericans for the Arts, the leading nonprofit organization advancing arts in America, will hold its 2014 Leadership Roundtable in Sun Valley. The event, which has always been held in Aspen, will take place June 26 through 28 in Sun Valley and Ketchum. The Leadership Roundtable will bring together a select group of about 30 distinguished artists, philanthropists, corporate and thought leaders in a dialogue exploring how the arts can be utilized as a positive force for change. This year’s topic will focus on the relationships that exist between the arts and technology and how to best harness them to further ideas, innovation and a creative future for the nation and the world. Americans for the Arts does more than talk. It helped establish the National Endowment for the Arts (NEA) during its 50-plus years of service. “This is exciting news,” said Suzanne Hazlett, who co-chairs the Wood River Studio Tour. “Not only is Americans for the Arts a major advocate for the arts, but they have championed some interesting projects, including encouraging Congress to employ art therapy for veterans with post-traumatic stress disorder.” Marty Albertson, chair of the Sun Valley Marketing Alliance, instigated the discussion to move the conference from Aspen to Sun Valley. “Americans for the Arts’ decision to bring this important national program to our area underscores the growing reputation of Sun Valley as an arts and culture destination,” said Albertson, who has attended Americans for the Arts roundtable programs at the Aspen Institute and Redford Center in Sundance, Colo., for many years. “All of us who live or spend time here know of the incredibly rich arts community and recognize the critical role the arts play in making the Valley such a special and vibrant place. Now, in part through the SVMA’s efforts, the word is getting out to others, including national arts organizations like Americans for the Arts.” In the past 10 years this community has come to recognize the value of arts as an economic driver—not just an added benefit, said Kristin Poole, artistic director for the Sun Valley Center for the Arts. The arts contribute more than $10 million to the local economy each year.

Marcia Hart discovered the crystal healing bed while visiting Joao de Faria, a.k.a. John of God, who demonstrated clairvoyant abilities as a child and became a healer as an adult. The Casa he established on a massive dome of quartz crystal 35 years ago attracts people from all over the world who are searching for healing for cancer, AIDS, hepatitis, nerve damage, and physical, emotional and spiritual trauma. Want to know more? Call Marcia Hart at 208.726.3586 or 726.2761. Treatments are normally $1 per minute plus $5. Five Springs Wellness is offering a special through April with a package of four treatments going for $105 versus the normal fee of $140.

STORY AND PHOTOS BY KAREN BOSSICK

heryl Cocannon first encountered healing on a crystal bed five years ago when she went to Brazil to seek help for a variety of personal issues from John of God, a medium who has been featured on “Oprah.” While there, she experienced crippling pain from a back injury she’d sustained several years earlier when she’d had a hard fall on concrete. Normally, she would have had a chiropractor adjust her. But, with no chiropractor around, she decided to give the crystal bed a whirl. “I prayed beforehand and asked that my spine be adjusted. But I couldn’t imagine in my wildest dreams how lying under crystal lights would help. Suddenly, out of the blue—pop, pop, pop—my whole sacrum was put into alignment,” said Cocannon. “It kept my back in tune for a month.” Cocannon was elated when Marcia Hart set up a crystal bed not far from her office at Windermere Real Estate. Hart, too, had been impressed with the beneficial energy the crystals seemed to emit when she visited Casa de Dom

Inácio, John of God’s healing and meditation center in Abadiania, Brazil, a village characterized by tile and corrugated tin roofs a two-hour drive from Brasilia, the capital of Brazil. And so this winter she found herself hand-carrying seven highly polished quartz crystals back to Idaho with her. She set up the healing crystal bed at Five Springs Wellness Center above Bigwood Bread Bakery at 270 Northwood Way in Ketchum’s light industrial district. And with that, Hart, who has done body work and applied kinesiology, became one of a hundred people to offer the combination color and crystal healing therapy in the United States. “I encourage people to make an intention, to focus on what they want to get out of a session, whether it is to become better at something or relax more or have a pain in the back go away,” Hart said. “You don’t need to tell me what it is. And nothing’s off-limits. You can always ask.” Treatments range between 20 and 40 minutes. Clients—fully clothed—slide onto a single bed. A foot above them hang the seven crystals. The crystals, harvested

from mines in central Brazil not far from Casa de Dom Inácio, magnify rays of light, which are considered metaphors for divine energy. As the client settles in, Hart puts a small eye pillow over his or her eyes and turns on soothing music and colored lights behind the crystals. The crystals are pointed at each of the seven human energy centers, or chakras. According to information provided by Casa de Dom Inácio, light flows through each crystal, producing a stream of energy that raises the body’s vibrational frequency by interacting with the water in the cells. Since we’re comprised of 90 percent water, that carries strong implications for how our body and health can be affected, the information says. As the energy enters the body, it retunes the energetic system that, like the circulatory system, flows through the body. Energy can get stuck, just as blood can be blocked by a plaque or a blood clot. Or energy can move in the wrong direction. Proponents say the healing crystal bed can harmonize the chakras, or energy centers, trigger healing and rejuvenation,

n Saturday, April 5, musical groups from Wood River High School participated in the Heritage Music Festival in Anaheim, California, and won twelve awards including five golds – the highest individual awards presented at the festival – and the special Festival “Spirit of Anaheim” award. Victoria Brown and Mary Petzke were singled out with special “Maestro” awards for their vocal solos. The Heritage Music Festival, founded in 1980, offers instrumental and vocal musical groups an opportunity to have their performances evaluated by trained adjudicators and compared against performances by other schools in the same classification around the United States. At this particular contest students from as far away as Alaska and from 27 schools participated. The Wood River Concert Band, Jazz Band, and Dixie Band, led by Tony Randall; the String

Orchestra and the Chamber Orchestra, led by Rebecca Martin; the concert choir Spiritus, the women’s choir Carmina Montis, and the women’s “jazz” choir Colla Voce, led by Max Stimac; and the men’s group The B-Tones, led by R.L. Rowsey from the Sun Valley Summer Symphony School of Music, chartered four buses and went to Anaheim, where they spent all day Friday in Disneyland and then spent Saturday performing for the adjudicators and the 81 other competing groups. Musical groups from Wood River High School have participated in the Heritage Music Festival for eleven years, usually alternating years, and have always done well, and this is the second year they have won the coveted “Spirit of Anaheim” award. 148 students from Wood River High School attended the festival, and about 1761 students total participated in the event, one of the largest.

Mariah Stout: Service Counts Courtesy Photo

BY JONATHAN KANE

ariah Stout, a Wood River High School senior carrying a weighted 4.2 grade point average, has a devotion to service and loves to give back to the community. While at Wood River, Stout has excelled at a number of Advanced Placement classes, including U.S. history, language and composition, psychology, government, biology,

statistics, comparative government and microeconomics. When her sophomore year at college begins, she plans to be attending Cornell University. As to service, Stout says, “I just like to help people. I love community service because it helps with social interactions and you have the ability to see the good that you do.” As a part of this, she has been a member of the Compassionate Young Leaders the past two years, which requires 100 hours of community service as part of their program. They also traveled to India last year on a mission to help struggling communities. “This year, the seniors are going to travel to Jonestown, Mississippi which is the second most impoverished county in the nation. While there we will help with nutrition, community gardens and paint houses for the elderly. The area is a food desert and it is hard to get fresh produce and food, so we’ll assist in that effort.” They will leave June 8 for two weeks. “We fundraise for all our trips and the reason we chose Jonestown is because one of our donors has a tremendous inter-

est in the area. This will be the first time that a group like ours has gone down there. You would think that India would be the greater culture shock, but this is America and we are expecting the shock to be extreme. What it does is make you feel grateful for what you have.” Last year, the trip to India included eight students. This year, the fundraising efforts are for the seniors and for the juniors to go back to India. “We have written letters to our friends and families asking for support, met with donors that show interest and met with groups like Rotary. It has been really important that fundraising is a group effort. For both trips, we have raised $50,000, but we still need to raise more funds for things like crockpots and rice cookers, bring books and toys to the school, and bring things like gardening tools. To help with that, we have an open mic night at the [Sun Valley] Brewery as a fundraiser this month. When I went to India last year, I had never been out of the country and the experience was invaluable. You got to

see how little they had, but how happy they were. They were also extremely friendly and wanted to help us in any way they could. The respect was mutual and the experience really changed me. It has had a profound impact on

For one thing, I have adopted a meditation practice that’s been extraordinary. I’m also so grateful for what I have in my life. You may want to change the world as one person, but what you really need to do is inspire others to have passion.” tws

the way i see it

Nature Calls BY CHRIS MILLSPAUGH

Deb Bohrer is one of more than 200 artists who have helped make the Wood River Valley a vibrant arts community that is attracting the attention of the rest of the nation.

In addition, they’re gaining the community national exposure. Ketchum was recently recognized by Smithsonian Magazine as one of the 20 best small towns in America to visit in a write-up that focused more on its arts scene than its recreational scene. ArtPlace, a collaboration of banks, foundations and businesses that focus on the role of the arts in the economic health of communities, named Ketchum as one of 2013 America’s Top 12 Small-Town ArtPlaces. And the City of Ketchum is about to begin devoting 5 percent of public capital improvement budgets to the arts—a figure that’s believed to be the highest percentage of any city in the nation. Bob Lynch, president and CEO of Americans for the Arts,

said he is excited by the opportunity to share what Sun Valley has to offer with the arts’ conference attendees. That will include an opportunity for local artists to have their work chosen by a juried group to be showcased to a special group of collectors, said Hazlett. “The cultural experiences that the arts community is arranging for our group will enhance the discussions around the table, as well as the recommendations for national action that will result,” said Lynch. Local groups that had a hand in bringing the conference to Sun Valley include the Sun Valley Center for the Arts, the Sun Valley Summer Symphony, the Sun Valley Gallery Association, the Ketchum Arts Commission and the Wood River Studio Tour.

was looking out the window at the snow last week and noticed my magpie friends bustling around the yard in a lost, confused manner. Normally, they would be screaming epitaphs and swiping worms and seeds from others. This day, they just looked befuddled. Could it be the strange weather patterns of 2014 thus far? What are they to believe? Is it spring now or winter still? As I watched them hop through mud puddles, a robin landed nearby, shook his head and flew off, concluding that it sure as hell wasn’t spring. The magpies looked up and seemed to say, “Hey, what does a robin know, anyway? Oh, look, a grub.” It was a sad sight to witness. Those feathered clowns had no idea what was up or down or what was going on. Snowplows were roaring by on the highway and the “’pies” were looking for the sun. Then, suddenly, the harsh chatter started and boy were they ticked off! The ear-piercing squawking reached a decibel height that would have rivaled the 12th man noise at a Seahawks playoff game. It rattled the windows of my 1946 cabin and caused me to dive under my coffee table. Glasses and plates were violently rattling on the shelves, reminiscent of

an earthquake in Burbank. I turned up the sound volume on the TV to 75 and still couldn’t hear the opening theme of “Law and Order.” My phone would ring and no one was there. I was rapidly becoming a candidate for the Gallaudet School for the Deaf. Make them stop! I opened the front door and sat on the stoop near the mud pool where they were cursing and quietly began reasoning with them. The “’pies” looked over at me in a quizzical manner and apparently told me to shut the hell up, then returned to their bickering and complaining. I got a sun lamp out of the garage, plugged in an extension cord and directed the light on the birds. Next, I grabbed a box of Grape Nuts and showered the area around the pool. Finally, I grabbed my guitar and started singing Hawaiian songs in a Don Ho voice. They ceased their quarreling and began cooing in a really creepy way. After a rendition of “Two Tickets to Paradise,” they started munching on the cereal, seemingly forgetting about their anger, and settled down, gazing at the rays of the fake sun. All was well, again. Nature had called. Nice talking to you.

“Messiah” To Crown Palm Sunday Weekend BY KAREN BOSSICK

omegrown mezzo-soprano Louisa Waycott will be among the soloists performing Frederic Handel’s “Messiah” with the Caritas Chorale this weekend—272 years to the day from its first performance in Dublin, Ireland. The free performances will begin at 7 p.m. Saturday and 3 p.m. Sunday at the Presbyterian Church of the Big Wood, Warm Springs and Saddle roads in Ketchum. Donations are welcome to cover the costs of the professional musicians who will be brought from Boise. About 70 members of the elite choir will perform the “Easter” sections of “Messiah.” They will be accompanied by 28 orchestra members, including a harpsichordist, and four professional soloists. Waycott, a Community School graduate now pursuing a singing career in New York City, will solo along with Jackson, Miss., bass James Martin, who has performed several times in Sun Valley. New Orleans soprano Betsy Ushkrat, an award-winning singer who has sung with the Louisiana, Shreveport and New Orleans operas, will also solo, along with New Orleans tenor Tyler Smith, an award-winning singer who has performed with the Louisiana, New Orleans and Des Moines Metro operas and the Houston Symphony. “It’s heartwarming that they want to do this for me. And I’m so proud of Louisa. She was a cello student and voice student of mine at the Community School, and in private. In fact, she’s playing my old cello,” said

Brown. “Messiah,” crown jewel of Handel’s sacred oratorios, is a popular favorite for audiences and choral singers worldwide. It includes the familiar “I know that my Redeemer liveth.” “The ‘Easter’ sections are not done nearly as much as the Christmas section. But I think they feature some of Handel’s finest and most inspirational music,” said conductor Dick Brown, who is on the mend after tearing a ligament in his hip. “They start with Holy Week—

Dick Brown will conduct “Messiah” on Palm Sunday Weekend as his last major performance in the Wood River Valley. Photo: KAREN BOSSICK

Christ’s entry into Jerusalem—and end with the famous ‘Hallelujah Chorus.’ The last part features the Resurrection and hope for the future. The quality of orchestral writing for the strings and trumpets and oboes is some of the best. And the choruses are well thought out, expressive of the text.” This is Dick Brown’s last major performance with the Chorale, which he founded 15 years ago. He and his wife Billie hope to move to Helena, Mont., after they sell their home in Hailey. “He gave so many of us a chance to sing so many different things with great accompanists and soloists and made us sound good,” said chorale member Lin-

da Bergerson. “It’s hard to bid him farewell because he’s been here so long and is beloved by many,” said the Rev. Ken Brannon, of St. Thomas Episcopal Church. “He brought a wonderful, playful personality to the congregation.” Brown says, however, that it’s time to hang up the baton: “If it were just about conducting music, it would be alright. But years of fundraising, scheduling and grant-writing take a toll.” “Messiah” was the first major work Brown conducted—as a 14-year-old conducting a Baptist church choir. The Caritas Chorale, he said, is the finest choir he has had sing the piece in 52 years of conducting choirs and playing cello with professional orchestras. “I’ve started six or seven different choruses and chamber music groups. They’re all thriving and that’s important to me,” he said. “Caritas will, too. This group has truly become family—this is the longest we’ve been in one place and we just love it here.” tws “Messiah” is the last major choral work Dick Brown will conduct as leader of the Caritas Chorale. But he will co-conduct the chorale’s spring fundraiser with R.L. Rowsey, who will take over the chorale. The pops concert will feature a potpourri of Brown’s favorites, including “Battle Hymn of the Republic,” “Dixie” and a few Gershwin numbers. It will be held June 7 and 8 at Gail Severn Gallery.

Dayle Fowler’s Memory Honored With Music Scholarships

A former Hailey woman is being lauded by the Idaho Jazz Society after she left $600,000 to the organization for scholarships. Dayle Fowler died a few summers ago in an accident on Highway 93 south of Shoshone when she was struck during a construction stop. A cancer survivor, she was a benefactor to Camp Rainbow Gold, the Animal Shelter of the

Wood River Valley, Sun Valley Jazz Festival, Sawtooth Botanical Garden and St. Luke’s Wood River Medical Center. She also funded the free Sunday jazz concerts held at Ketchum’s Rotary Park during THE summer. The Idaho Jazz Society is creating an endowment in Fowler’s name and will use her gift for scholarships for Idaho music students attending college. tws

Sibbach. Some say the barn was built during Ketchum’s mining heyday in the late 1800s. But Sibbach said he doesn’t know when it was built. “But we do know that we’re putting a new foundation under it to make sure it stays around for awhile,” he added. Sun Valley Company is doing the work, along with Pacific Movers, Extreme Excavation and others. It will take about a week. tws

BLAINE COUNTY EMERGENCY COMMUNICATIONS CENTER CELEBRATING NATIONAL PUBLIC SAFETY TELECOMMUNICATORS WEEK The Blaine County Emergency Communications Center will be celebrating National Public Safety Telecommunicators Week April 13-19, 2014. Each year, the second full week of April is dedicated to the men and women who serve as public safety telecommunicators. The emergency telecommunicator, (also known as dispatchers or 911 operators) is the first person on the scene of every crime, fire or medical emergency that begins with a 911 call. The actions taken by the dispatcher while emergency responders are en route to the scene can make a tremendous difference in assisting victims, protecting emergency responders and saving lives. Please join Blaine County by taking the time to acknowledge and thank these professionals for the work they do within our community.

pril is the month of Arbor Day and, at the Sawtooth Botanical Garden, our annual Bug Zoo! It is the time of year to begin sowing seeds for the first harvests of the season and to start seeds indoors for summer’s bounty. The longer days and warmer temperatures encourage us to be outside pruning back decorative grasses and late blooms left from last fall, raking up debris, cultivating the soil and fertilizing our plants. It is also the time to consider the foods you purchase throughout

the year and decide if you have room in your garden to incorporate some of those foods and herbs. In April, begin planting bareroot perennials. Wait until the soil temperature has reached 5560 degrees to plant tender bulbs. This is also a good time to consider planting trees that were grown in containers or balled and burlapped trees. Consider a new layer of organic mulch to protect new trees and to add a fresh layer of organic material to your garden beds. Watch for plants that may need support as they grow such as catmint, peonies and delphinium. Consider making trellises to support these top-heavy plants.

If you are ready to get started in your vegetable garden, now is the time to sow spinach, radishes, sweet peas, leaf lettuce and green onions. As the ground temperature begins to warm later in the month, begin hardening cabbage and broccoli starts. For containers warmed by the sun, April is the time to seed lettuce, radishes, onions, short-variety carrots and beets. The Sawtooth Botanical Garden has a resource library for all of your gardening needs including how to make trellises, soil preparation and seed selection! tws

Why I Talk About Nutrition As A Not So Tasty Cookie Critical Part Of Dog Training M erc beat

ichael Pollan’s first food rule is simple: “Eat Food,” which he considers to be a far different thing than what he calls edible, foodlike substances. Prepared foods contain dizzying lists of Frankenstein products and chemical additives that no one would ever have in their pantry or throw into homemade brownies. Many of these food-like substances are bad for our health, bad for our planet, and they are everywhere. At the top of the list is palm oil, which is present in half of the packaged foods sold in the U.S., from cereals to cookies to granola bars to candy bars to chewing gum. Palm oil zoomed to top-ingredient status after consumers shied away from foods containing trans fats. Substituting for those hated hydrogenated vegetable oils (or trans fats), palm oil earned manufacturers a coveted

“No Trans Fats” announcement on the package front. In fact, palm oil contains highly saturated fats that raise blood cholesterol. Maybe even worse than the health detriment is the catastrophic rate of rainforest destruction (8 million acres cleared and burned already for new palm oil plantations). Areas most affected are West Africa, Asia and Latin America, with Malaysia and Indonesia the two biggest producers. Orangutans, tigers, rhinos and elephants are threatened by the squeezing down of rainforest habitat and the inevitable conflicts between people and large animals. How tasty is that cheap cookie, really? Ditch the packaged foods, cook from scratch, and always read the labels. More Green Community tips at Facebook.com/ ERCSunValley. tws

BY FRAN JEWELL. IAABC CERTIFIED DOG BEHAVIOR CONSULTANT NADOI CERTIFIED INSTRUCTOR AND TRACKING INSTRUCTOR #1096 OWNER, POSITIVE PUPPY DOG TRAINING LLC

s a certified dog behavior consultant, I see daily how nutrition affects the behavior of our dogs. Recently, four different stories have come my way regarding nutrition and how it changed the behaviors of dogs. Three of them were with puppies that were eating food that contained grains – very high in corn and one high in rice. After changing their puppies’ food to a grain-free formula, all three puppy owners called to say they saw amazing behavior changes for the better – calmer, easier to focus, less biting/ nipping and better behavior in general after just 2-3 days on the new grain-free formulas. The fourth case was with an older dog. Visiting with relatives, this dog was pooping several times a day and it was getting to be almost impossible to keep up with the cleanup for the dogsitters. The dogsitters decided to try this dog on a grain-free food that another dog was eating and, overnight, the poop was less. Even if cleanup is not a problem for you, how many times a puppy poops in a day can

have a huge effect on housetraining ease or difficulty. While you may not see an immediate behavior difference in an older dog being switched to a grain-free formula, we need to understand that removing toxins from a dog’s diet, after having eaten grains for many years, may take more time to see. Why do I say toxins? Because almost all rice and corn in the United States is genetically modified and infused with chemicals to prevent pest and mold damage. I could venture to say that almost no dog food company goes to the length to assure that its grains are organic. Another toxin reality is that some companies actually coat their foods with plastics so the kibble will have a longer shelf life! Imagine what that will do to your dog over time! The further concern is that dogs to not possess the digestive enzymes to digest grains. So, what they get from grains is usually just the sugar/carbohy-

drate without any of the claimed nutritional values. What that means is frantic behaviors, just like in children that eat diets high in sugar. This is also part of the reason there is so much more poop. When I cycle my dogs through raw food, there is so little poop to clean up, it’s almost hard to find in the yard. That means to me that my dogs are utilizing almost as much as they eat. One resource to look at is a website called DogFoodAdvisor. com. Dog Food Advisor actually rates dog foods, and their reasons why, so you can make educated choices for your dog. All of this is just “food for thought” and why I always ask new clients what they are feeding their dogs. So often it helps us with growing puppies to have fewer behavior problems, both with frantic and wild behaviors and with housetraining, because the pups are simply not having to go as much. tws

habitat for non-humanity

The Play Is The Thing BY BALI SZABO

was chided the other day on Facebook for being too serious, and was told I had to lighten up. I had made fun at a simple ‘personality test,’ and called it a useless, narcissistic exercise. That’s way too serious for Facebook. Apparently, I had failed to understand the value of silliness. What that person was really talking about was play, and the human need for play, something more important or prevalent than the reproductive drive. Couldn’t agree more. Right now I’m neck deep in March Madness. Before that it was the Olympics, and already it’s time to root for the boys of summer. The Masters is just around the corner. The U.S. enjoys and invents more forms of play than any culture in history. We work hard, we play hard. In a diverse, creative society like ours, there are bound to be competing ideologies and re-energized historical strains. The work ethic and neo-Puritanism as a counterweight to runaway hedonism is alive and well. Intolerance is as much a part of the American national character as a sense of fair play and the ethos of a level playing field. The war on drugs is a good example of the neo-Puritan disdain for the pursuit of pleasure as an end in itself. Diehards who oppose medical marijuana often state, with great conviction and

indignation, that, ‘You can’t kid me! It’s being misused by people who just want to get high.’ So if you enjoy it, it’s a potential felony. These are the same folks who dug up the chestnut ‘sex is for procreation only.’ The same play-loving folks from Hobby Lobby are trying to convince the Supreme Court to legalize

discrimination in the guise of religious freedom. We know we play. Historians have made careers out of documenting the nature and historical role of play. Our pets play. Mammals and numerous others creatures—from ants and birds to a pod of whales—indulge in purposeless play. The

idea of play remains unpopular in some scientific circles. Evolutionary biologists/psychologists cut their teeth on Darwinism, a field as much a scientific religion as religion itself, and equally narrow-minded. To them, animal behavior is determined (they love to apply the same misguided ideas to women) by the struggle for existence, the hunt for food and the sexual access to females. Women’s romantic pursuits are said to be dominated by the search for superior genes. There’s no time for play in the straightjacket orthodoxy of biological destiny. They insist on an absolute, beyond-reasonable-doubt standard of proof if you claim otherwise—a standard they themselves fail to meet. Do worms play? If its’ not on ESPN, it doesn’t exist. Supposedly, everything can be explained by the above-stated evolutionary imperatives. There is no missing-link chasm between species. Our DNA is close to that of a fruit fly. There is continuity. Nature loves templates but, above all, there is endless individual variation and unpredictability. The great quantum physicist Heisenberg proved that atoms will act randomly at any given moment. That begs the question: Do atoms and subatomic particles play? Does the God particle play? If you have question or comments, contact Bali at this e-mail: hab4nh@aol.com.

Coup Gives Local Racers Incentive

STORY AND PHOTO BY KAREN BOSSICK

he Sun Valley Ski Education Foundation has its work cut out for it with the announcement that Sun Valley has snagged the 2016 and 2018 U.S. Alpine National Championships. “If we’re having the national championships on our turf, we need to be contending by then,” said Rob Clayton, who heads up the Sun Valley Ski Education Foundation. The U.S. Ski and Snowboard Association announced Thursday an arrangement in which Maine’s Sugarloaf ski resort will host the U.S. Alpine Championships in 2015 and 2017. Sun Valley will host in 2016 and 2018. It will be the first time Sun Valley has hosted nationals in 65 years. The last time it hosted the races was in 1951.

APRIL 9, 2014

The USSA touted both resorts for “a rooted history and heritage of ski racing” and their strong USSA club programs, including the Sun Valley Ski Education Foundation, which boasts about 500 young athletes. In fact, Sun Valley has been hosting international races as far back as 1937. It just finished up with the six-day Western Region Spring Series event that attracted 220 of the top ski racers in the West, including a 2014 Winter Olympics medalist. Other resorts that have hosted the alpine nationals are Squaw Valley, Calif., Winter Park, Colo., and Lake Placid, N.Y. “The USSA knows we put a lot of hard work into these things and our mountain department does a terrific job of maintaining course conditions,” said Jack Sibbach, Sun Valley’s marketing vice-president. tws

THE “WEEKLY” FISHING REPORT FOR APRIL 9TH FROM PICABO ANGLER

f you grew up fly-fishing, and you are 40 or older, then chances are you learned to cast using a fiberglass fly rod. Mine was a yellow Eagle Claw that my cousin gave me. These super-“slow” and super-“soft” rods were not always easy to cast. Anglers that grew up casting with them found that as “quicker” and “stiffer” as graphite rods appeared, it was easy to pick them up and cast them well. The same is true today, no matter what you cast. Soft rods are more difficult to cast well than their stiffer counterparts. Eventually, graphite took over the market and it continues to be the dominant material used for fly rods today. Fiberglass rods, like everything cool and retro, are coming back! It’s not that the technology has gotten better; it is more of a throwback. Anglers want to have a fiberglass rod in their quiver for the same reason we want American muscle cars in our garages. The vintage nature of these rods calls to us like Mother used to call to us when it was time to come in for dinner. Finding the peace of childhood in that piece of childhood we call fly-fishing appeals to many, many anglers. Fiberglass is easy to find in local fly shops now, as it continues its comeback. For younger anglers, now is the first time they’ve been able to fish these rods and the feel of something different is the appeal. For older anglers, the feel of that “slow” rod is an awesome reminder of youth. Here in the Sun Valley area we are blessed with world-famous Silver Creek and the big fish that inhabit that stream. It is a place that calls out for a “slow” fly rod. The softness of a slow-action rod protects light tippets and leaders and allows anglers a shot at landing big trout on ultralight lines, thus making fiberglass a perfect tool for “The Creek!” Picabo Angler is now carrying fiberglass fly rods from Orvis and local rod spinner Bob Turzian. To take it one step further, our guides have declared 2014 “The Summer of Glass!” If you’ve never cast these rods, or want to join us as we cast glass for the pure joy of it this year, then come see us at Picabo Angler. We’d love to introduce you, or reintroduce you, to the retro side of fly-fishing this summer!

Happy Fishing Everyone!

2 Key Steps For A Healthy, Allergy-Free Spring BY JODY STANISLAW

he warmer spring temperatures have an energizing effect on us all. However, to enjoy all the outdoor activities you desire, ensure your health is at its best. Spring is the perfect time to do some cleaning, not just inside your house, but inside your body as well. Follow these two tips and you will have more energy and can reduce annoying allergy symptoms, too.

#1 – Eat the right foods and nutrients. Avoid the following, which make allergy symptoms worse: sugary foods, processed foods, lack of fresh vegetables and fruit, not enough sleep, not enough/too much exercise, poor emotional health, alcohol, and dehydration. Additionally, dairy and wheat can increase phlegm production, which make symptoms worse. Ensure your diet is full of nutrients that keep your immune system from overreacting to spring pollens: spinach, kale, green/red peppers, carrots, cabbage, apples, oranges, cranberries, almonds, seeds, ginger, and wild salmon. Take key vitamins, minerals, oils, probiotics, and herbs designed to optimize your immune system and thus eliminate your symptoms. Following simple supplement recommendations can provide great relief.

#2 - Do A Simple Cleanse. You can’t see them but toxins are in our air, soil and water, and thus accumulate inside your body as well. Inside your home they are in cleaners; toxic vapors leaching from fire retardants in furniture and carpet; and fragrances and chemicals used in shampoos, toothpaste, and laundry soap. Unless you are eating organic foods, you’re regularly ingesting large amounts of pesticides and chemical fertilizers. Sixty million pounds of pesticides are applied to U.S. crops annually! Anything that overtaxes your liver increases the toxin build-up in your body. In the case of alcohol, drinking over two drinks a day for men or one a day for women has been shown to cause excess liver stress. Doing a simple five- to 10-day, food-based cleanse will give you increased energy, clearer thinking, better moods, and improved quality of sleep. The fiber in vegetables is one of the greatest substances for binding and releasing toxins, and to help keep you regular so you can release the toxins. Secondly, keeping your blood sugar balanced is key, and fiber is great at that. Thirdly, just as it takes a lot of energy to clean out your garage, your body requires a lot of energy to clear out toxins. On a food-based cleanse, you can eat as much as you want. And, most importantly, you’ll feel great after doing it.

To learn more about doing a cleanse, supplements, and further tips for avoiding springtime allergies, send an e-mail to DrJody@DrJodyND.com or visit www.DrJodyND.com

Ketchum Leads Nation in City Funding for Public Art. Percentage of Public Capital Improvement Budget for Arts Goes to 5% The City of Ketchum will begin devoting 5 percent of public capital improvement budgets to the arts. This is believed to be the highest percentage of any city in the nation. Seven cities in Idaho require a percentage of capital improvement budgets to be devoted to the arts, said Ketchum Arts Commission member Claudia McCain. The figure ranges from 1 percent in Moscow to 1.25 percent in Hailey to 1.4 percent in Boise. Other West Coast cities have percentages ranging from 0.5 percent in Denver to 1.33 percent in Portland, she said, adding that she has been unable to find another city in the country with as high a percentage as Ketchum. The City previously devoted 1.33 percent to art. The higher figure will make possible larger projects such as outfitting a park with artist-designed playground equipment, adding artistic elements to bicycle paths and lanes or bus stops, paying artists for their contributions to City projects, creating gateway arts elements for the City and funding arts projects that can draw a national audience, McCain told the City Council. “This is very significant,” she added. “The 5 percent exemplifies the City’s recognition that the projects created by the arts commission offer an important contribution to the vitality of the City both experientially and economically. It is a documented fact that the cultural tourist stays longer and spends more.” The requirement applies only to the first $1 million of City-funded projects other than utilities. It does not affect private development. The Percent for Art Program was established in 2011.

Movie Review

stimulate spiritual awareness, provide insights into behavioral issues and causes of ill health, and release hurtful or harmful memories and emotions. Some users report feeling energy centers open or feelings of someone holding their hands or stroking their heads. Some say the experience has called to memory things they had forgotten. There are other ways to do the same thing, including meditation, acupuncture and using essential oils, Hart said. “But this is an inexpensive, easy way of doing it,” she said. “I observe that everyone is usually quieter, more peaceful, and that their face and body are softer and changed after each session. The rest is their own private experience with healing entities and whomever they do their spiritual work.” Cocannon has become a regular user. When she felt a throbbing on the right side of her head and began to hear her heart pumping, she immediately sought treatment, fearing the symptoms might be leading to a stroke. “I lay under the bed for ten minutes and I felt a whoosh come into my left ear, like a release of energy pressure. Ever since, the throbbing in my head has been gone,” she said. “I love the crystal bed. I could go on and on about it.” tws

Howlingly Bad Rating: BY JONATHAN KANE

hat can you say about the Valentine’s Day treat from Hollywood, Winter’s Tale, besides that it’s far and away the worst film of the year! There is bad, and then there is frighteningly bad, and Winter’s Tale’s badness knows no boundaries. Part romance, part spiritual mush, part sci-fi, it’s 100 percent a mess. As my companion nicely put it to me, ‘This film is so stupid!’ It seemed obvious that her generosity knew no bounds, as well. Why, you may wonder, did

it garner half a star? Because the film incredulously boasts a first-rate cast, including Russell Crowe, William Hurt, Colin Farrell (who goes from one ridiculous haircut to the next), Jennifer Connelly, Will Smith, laughably, as the Devil, and Eva Marie Saint. The movie is written and directed by Akiva Goldsman, who won an Oscar for his screenplay of A Beautiful Mind. Sadly, this is his directorial debut. It is based on the critically acclaimed 1983 novel by Mark Helprin. Do I really have to relate the plot? It’s so painful! Farrell is a young thug in 1916 New York City who breaks into a mansion, only to find the beautiful Jessica Brown Findlay (Down-

ton Abbey) dying of the plague. It is love at first sight and a love that is to span, ridiculously, a century, despite there being any chemistry between the leads. It seems that Farrell has broken away from a gang led by a scarfaced Crowe and, when he is almost captured, he is whisked away by a winged white horse. Crowe is a henchman for the Devil, played totally over the top by the aforementioned Smith. I swear I’m not making this up. Cut to modern-day New York City as Farrell continues to look for his love and battles Crowe to the death. Of course, this is the condensed version. I’m saving you the pain and misery of actually sitting through this abomination. tws

First Janss Disabled Team Features Paralympian Who Honed Skills On Baldy BY KAREN BOSSICK

litsa Storey tried to learn to ski with a prosthesis without much luck after her right leg was amputated because of a birth defect. Then her parents—Gary and Janis Storey—heard about a new ski instructor who had just moved to town after teaching disabled skiers at Alpine Meadows in California. Marc Mast taught Elitsa Storey how to ski on one leg using outriggers—ski poles with little skis. And several years later the young girl found herself racing for the U.S. Disabled Ski Team in the 2006 Paralympics in Torino, Italy, and the 2010 Paralympics in Vancouver, B.C. Last weekend the Bulgarian native, who was adopted by the Storeys, honored Mast—and the Sun Valley Ski Education Foundation program that she grew up in—by participating in the 2014 Janss Pro-Am Classic. She and her boyfriend Adam Hall, a Paralympics medalist from New Zealand, were part of the first-ever disabled team participating in the Janss. The Wraptors, as they dubbed themselves after Mast’s Wood River Ability Program, were funded by the Cimino family. “It is so much fun being back

and skiing with so many people I know,” said the 26-year-old. “And being able to help out Marc Mast and the ski program is really special.”

Storey spent a brief stint in Wanaka, N.Z., where she mentored up-and-coming athletes while doing correspondence courses toward a counseling degree. Today, she lives in Winter Park, Colo., where she works in administration for a Pilates clinic. The birthplace of adaptive skiing, Winter Park was where she learned to be comfortable with her prosthesis as she saw wheelchair athletes and other racers with prostheses. But she continues to hold a fond spot for Sun Valley: “You won’t find this terrain anywhere in the world. It’s the best I’ve ever seen and I’ve skied a lot.”

STORY AND PHOTOS BY KAREN BOSSICK

David Poole, of Bozeman, Mont., was paralyzed in a 2006 skiing accident when he tumbled down a 60-foot cliff at Copper Mountain in Colorado. Less than a year later he was learning how to monoski and this weekend he raced in the Janss Pro-Am. He also has worked with the Wood River Ability Program on Nordic skiing.

Racers Dance Down The Mountain So That Kids Can Compete

unter Diehl, a freestyler with the Sun Valley Ski Education Foundation, wasn’t afraid to show a little leg underneath his can-can dress Friday and Saturday. After all, it was all in fun— and he was willing to do anything to raise a million bucks for his ski program. Diehl was one of 26 young skiers and boarders taking place in the 2014 Janss Pro-Am. The event, a weekend of racing and partying, is one of the Sun Valley Ski Education Foundation’s biggest fundraisers. “We got a gold medal in Sochi out of this community and that’s about as good as it gets,” SVSEF Director Rob Clayton told race participants as they gathered for an evening of noshing at Michel’s Christiania Olympic Bar. “You folks are responsible for that. Kaitlyn Farrington’s medal would not have happened without your help. And Kaitlyn Farrington was not the first and she will not be the last.” In keeping with this year’s theme, “Dance Evolution,” racers donned a variety of costumes from that of cardboard trains immortalizing the song “Locomotion” to Charleston flapper outfits. Kelley Fitzpatrick found how painful standing on tippy toes in go-go boots could be. And racers like Erika Hogan took it on the leg with their can-can outfits. “I admire them for racing in fishnet stockings,” said Doran Key. “It’s not all that warm outside.” While admittedly a little breezy, Can-Can Pro Hailey Duke, a 2010 Olympian who was born in Sun Valley, was just glad to be part of the event. She had a large tumor removed from her brain in 2012. Since, she’s worked hard to procure a World Cup spot for the 2014-2015 season. “After the operation, I felt like a million bucks,” she said. “I really missed skiing when I couldn’t do it. So I worked real hard to come back. The hardest part was the politics, the people saying I couldn’t do it. This Janss race—this is how it should be. Racing should always be fun.”

Hank Minor was the pro for the Dancing Queens.

The fastest team on the mountain was Magic Mike comprised of Mike Maricich, Miles Fink DeBray, David Choudounsky, Robin Sarchett, Wyatt Minor and Carl Rixon.

Hunter Diehl didn’t mind donning a Can-Can dress for the cause.

The Kiss team was made up of Andy Ware, Joe Marx, Conor Davis, Tai Barrymore, Hanna Blackwell and Ben Verge.

Joy Kasputy, Paige Lethbridge, Julie Daniels West, Langely McNeal and Rick Lethbridge made up the Solid Gold Dancers.

Alpine racer Sophia Mazzoni and her family moved here from McCall this past year so she could ski with the Sun Valley Ski Education Foundation. Mazzoni, the 12-year-old junior pro for the Boot Scootin’ Boogie team, said she was impressed by the more relaxed style of the coaches here and the size of the program, which she said is much larger than McCall’s. “I like the mountain better—the snow is harder and firmer to turn on. The mountain’s so much tougher I’m learning not to push myself so I don’t get completely burned out the next day. And I like the Community School, too. It’s a tough school, but I’m learning more.” Nick Maricich headed the Magic Mike team, which celebrated winning the Speed Cup, marking them as the fastest on the slopes before handicapping was figured in. The team treated the audience at Whiskey Jacques to a comic—but modest--stage routine poking fun at the comedy about a 19-year-old who thinks he might like to dabble in the world of male stripping. Maricich thanked participants for supporting the program noting that it was NOT “Magic Mike”: “It’s one of the most character building and discipline building youth organizations in the state,” he said. Clayton said the Janss event contributes a third of the SVSEF’s $3.4 million budget. “I think people in the community count on this, as well,” he said. “The participants have so much fun—it keeps enthusiasm and ball rolling at the end of the

ski season. And it was really nice this year rolling into this after the Spring Series Sun Valley hosted.” Clayton got his first real look at the program during last year’s Janss race. He took over the program last summer. “I was unprepared by the magnitude, the scope of the program—how big it is. It’s a bigger part of the valley than I had anticipated—one which collaborates with so many other organizations, including the Community School, Blaine County Recreation District, the Forest Service…” The weekend ended on a high note as Clayton announced a $25,000 donation by an anonymous donor at Saturday’s award banquet. “I think all of you would like to see Sun Valley become the No. 1 snowsports destination in America,” he said, as he called on donors to raise their paddles to pledge $10,000. One person raised their paddle, then a second….. Beverly DeChevrieux, who helped put together the first Janss 17 years ago said, it was amazing to see what the event has become. “It’s got a life and it’s grown and grown.” tws

ome of the most moving works ever written for piano will be performed when the Sun Valley Artist Series’ inaugural Piano Festival takes place Friday through Sunday. The performances, featuring four concert pianists from New York and four from Los Angeles, will feature works from many of the world’s greatest composers, including Haydn, Brahms, Debussy, Beethoven, Chopin, Gershwin and Mozart. Each concert will be preceded by a 15-minute informal “Meet the Artist” interview hosted by Sun Valley Artist Series Artistic Director Susan Spelius Gannon. Some soloists will be accompanied by a second pianist, with the two pianists playing 9-foot concert grands in Gannon’s private Sun Valley residence, which she has dubbed “Bluebell Hall.” While admission is free, thanks to donations by patrons, seating is limited by the venue. Reservations are being taken at 208.725.5807 and info@svartistseries.org and some of the events are filling up quickly, said Steve Gannon, the series’ executive director. The festival will kick off at 2 p.m. Thursday when concert pianist Susan Spelius Gannon and Fang-Fang Shi present a special performance for the students of The Sage School. “Part of our obligation as a non-profit is that we want to touch youth. We want the kids to be able to hear these splendid performances in this intimate setting. So we’re having between 50 and 60 of the school’s students over to hear myself and Fang-Fang, whom I meet at an international keyboard festival in New York last summer,” said Spelius Gannon. On Saturday and Sunday,

local students and visiting guest performers will play solo and concert works beginning at 1 p.m. Gannon is hopeful the pianists will get as much out of the experience as the audience. Part of the lure for the pianists is being able to come to Sun Valley where they will be able to experience some serious camaraderie, Spelius Gannon said. Their performance will be streamed. They will be housed in some of Sun Valley’s spectacular homes while here and given gift cards from Sun Valley Resort and passes from Zenergy health club. They will be feted in a

Andrea Lam pre-concert reception and a wine reception by Frenchman’s Gulch Winery following each concert. And they will get to perform on what Gannon calls “two of the best pianos in the state of Idaho”—namely, her 9-foot Steinway concert grand and a 9-foot Fazioli concert grand. Fazioli pianos have only been brought to this country in the past eight years, said Spelius Gannon. They’re one of the most expensive pianos in the world— even more expensive than Steinways. They’re produced in Sacile, Italy, a little town just north of Venice that is known as “little Venice” because of the canals running through it. “I didn’t go out of my way to buy the most expensive piano in the world. But a Sun Valley resident bought it, and when he passed away, his widow contacted me to see if I might want it,” Spelius Gannon said. “We went to the factory in Italy where we got to see the making of the piano in stages, from bringing in the wood to the factory workers who look like runway models— they wear designer shoes while they’re building pianos! And we met Mr. Fazioli and he’s just thrilled we’re using his piano for our festival.”

Silver Creek High School Partners with Ketchum Snow Army for Ski Day on Dollar

t is still winter in the Wood River Valley and there is snow abound to be enjoyed. Whether you are an everyday skier or saving your legs for the perfect powder day, Sun Valley has something to offer everyone. And thanks to Andy McCabe, the Ketchum Snow Army (KSA), and Sun Valley Company, the local students at Silver Creek High School got the chance to enjoy the spring snow at their School Ski/Snowboard Day on Dollar Mountain.

Andy McCabe, long time local and Senior Designer at Smith Sport Optics has a passion for snowboarding. With the help of local volunteers Rudi Broschofsky, Cara Shumate, Tamara Harrison, Andy Gilbert, Cory Smith, Joe Marx, Jim Slanetz, Nate Farrel and Jeremy Black, they were able to share the sport they love with some local students from Silver Creek High School.

The idea for a ski day with Silver Creek High School came from Andy McCabe talking to local coaches about the many kids who live in the valley and see the mountains everyday, but don’t necessarily get a chance to enjoy them. Along with his fellow members of the Ketchum Snow Army (a group of longtime snowboarders), Andy set out to promote the sport who’s interest he sees dwindling among the youth in this valley.

Meet the Valley: Langely McNeal

Working with Mike Glenn, the principal of Silver Creek High School, and Bing Parkinson, a teacher at Silver Creek High School, they encouraged 26 student skiers and snowboarders to get out there and get the goods. While all of the students live in the Wood River Valley, many of them had never been on the mountain before, and Silver Creek High School has not had a ski day in the last five years based on a long list of priorities. This opportunity was promoted as an incentive for attendance, good grades and overall good behavior. Sun Valley Company and their Marketing Director, Mike Fitzpatrick, donated lift passes and rentals to all the students and Wiseguy Pizza Pie arranged for a pizza lunch after a morning of shredding down Dollar.

Not only did they enjoy a beautiful day in the mountains of Sun Valley, but they recognized that hard work is rewarded with some serious playtime with their fellow students. As Mike Glenn stated,

“For our students to get that kind of positive attention from Andy and his volunteers was priceless. Our students were so appreciative and it was an incredible day for all involved.” Andy McCabe hopes to continue this collaboration with Silver Creek High School by making this an annual event, one that will no doubt grow in size, volunteers, and fun as the year’s progress.

The response from the students was overwhelmingly positive.

his valley has given me a lot of opportunities to give back. I was recently selected as the keynote speaker at the Special Olympics 2014 State Winter Games, which was one of the coolest experiences I have ever had. Being in the room with so many hard working athletes that have had to overcome so much adversity was unlike any sporting event I have ever been to- the energy in that room was tangible! Similarly, I have participated in (and won) Battle of the Blades, which was not only very physically and mentally challenging, but works towards making ice-skating more affordable for the kids in the Wood River Valley. I also participate in the annual Janss Cup, which is not only a lot of fun but a huge fundraiser for the SVSEF. Finally I have worked with Play Hard Give Back creating my own trail mix and picking a social cause that is close to my heart; SheJumps, which encourages females to reach their highest potential through outdoor adventure. One of the more memorable generosity experiences I have had was raising money for the American Cancer Society auctioning off 10 eligible bachelors. It was a tough job, but someone had to do it. Whenever I talk about my hometown of Sun Valley I say I have never seen a town that rallies harder around local causes. Whether working towards a monetary goal or volunteering, people are so incredibly generous with their time and resources. GET TO KNOW ‘EM • GET THEIR STATS!

The Hailey Memorial Day Committee is looking for sponsors for a flyover of the 2014 Hailey Memorial Day Ceremony. The Warhawk Air Museum in Nampa, Idaho will be providing the flyover again this year. They will be bringing one P-51 Mustang and one Curtiss P-40. Unlike military flyovers in the past that were free to us, a flyover by the Museum does require a donation to them to cover fuel and museum costs. The donation to the Museum is tax deductible and the total donation needed is $2500. We strive to receive a flyover every year because it is ultimately the highest honor that can be shown to a fallen soldier. Having a flyover of the ceremony helps us to honor the nearly 400 Blaine County veterans laid to rest at the Hailey Cemetery and the over 70 men and women from Idaho who’ve passed away during conflict since 2001. We have had a flyover the past 7 consecutive years and are doing everything we can to retain the flyover of the ceremony so that we may continue to show our respects to all those who’ve served so selflessly and are now laid to rest here. This will be Hailey’s 11th annual ceremony. It will take place on Monday May 26th, 2014 at 11:00am at the Hailey Cemetery. The theme for this year’s ceremony is, “Heaven Was Needing a Hero” and will be focused on the Korean War era. We are dedicating this year’s ceremony in honor of our youngest ceremony volunteer, Nolan Kreczkowski. There will be members of 4 out of the 5 US military branches participating. Providing such duties as keynote speaker, emcee, Color Guard, wreath bearers, firing party and more. We offer three sponsorship levels this year: Gold, Silver, and Bronze. If you’re interested in being a sponsor, please contact Maggie Springer for more information at 208-309-1959. The Committee thanks you in advance for your support! **The attached pictured is of the P-51 called “Hell-er-Bust”. It was one of the planes that flew over Hailey’s 2013 ceremony
