CAREY PANTHERS CHARGE TO CHAMPIONSHIP Carey High School senior running back Hilario Ruiz, surrounded by Tri-Valley tacklers, bulls his way into the end zone at Middleton High School on Saturday afternoon during the IHSAA State 1A Division 2 eight-man football championship game. Ruiz’s six-yard scoring run and subsequent two-point conversion pass caught by Tanner Mecham gave Carey’s undefeated Panthers a 22-12 second-quarter lead on their way to a 50-42 victory over the Titans from Cambridge. Tri-Valley defenders, from left, are Parker Cornwell, Chip Mitchell, Cody Nixon and Teddy Ertel. To read a story with more photos of Carey’s sixth state football title, turn to Page 21.

Hammer, Ribi settle case for $79,000 Judge considers settlement agreement in lawsuit

lawsuit between a former Sun Valley city administrator and city councilman is drawing to a close in Blaine County 5th District Court.

Almost exactly six years since she first started suing the city government and city officials, Sharon Hammer has reached a settlement agreement with former Councilman Nils Ribi.

The agreement, if enforced by District Court Judge Ned Williamson, will end her lawsuit accusing Ribi of civil assault. After holding a hearing on the case Monday afternoon in Hailey, Williamson will issue a ruling this week on whether to enforce the agreement. The ruling had not been issued as of press deadline Tuesday afternoon.

Background Hammer worked as the city administrator from 2008 until 2012, when she was fired.

A new affordable-housing project in Ketchum is going to get a major boost from the city government.

The 18-unit Galena Lofts project will be on Leadville Avenue and Seventh Street, and is currently planned to have three community-housing units. But the Ketchum City Council pledged Monday night to give the project at least $800,000 in city funding to increase the number of community housing units to eight.

The City Council did not vote Monday to spend any money, but it did direct Susan Scovell Architect staff to continue working with the architects for Galena Lofts, Susan Scovell and Rebecca Bundy.

The $800,000 will come out of the city’s in-lieu housing fund, which developers can pay into to satisfy their community-housing requirement.

Ketchum budgeted about $1.8 million in the fund in July, though that amount has increased as more payments have come. The Thunder Spring residential development on Saddle Road is nearing completion, and has paid the city about $1 million of in-lieu funds.

The Auberge Resort Sun Valley hotel project also paid the city about $1 million of in-lieu housing funds.

Former Mayor Dave Hutchinson, a representative of Thunder Spring’s owners, told the council that he supports the Galena Lofts project.

Bundy and Scovell have spearheaded development of the housing project, and said they decreased the cost per square foot of each unit because they’re not trying to make a profit. Bundy said the cost-per-square-foot for Galena Lofts is $414, while it would be $584 for a private developer.

Hutchinson said the project is an effective use of the city’s in-lieu funds. The city has collected $4.8 million since the in-lieu fee began in 2005, and it’s spent $3.08 million.

Some $1.8 million was spent on real estate acquisition for the Ketchum Urban Renewal Agency, while $683,000 was provided to the Blaine County Housing Authority. $325,000 was spent on two units of community housing for ARCH Community Housing Trust, while $213,610 went to architectural and consultant fees for Northwood Place in 2009 and 2010, as well as the Bavarian Village investigation in 2007.

“It is exactly what in-lieu fees are intended for,” Hutchinson said of Galena Lofts. “They’re basically a nonprofit. You’re looking at subsidizing a private enterprise that is technically a not-for-profit. We

inding themselves in a legal bind, the Camas County commissioners will again consider a recommendation from the Planning and Zoning Commission that private airports be allowed on AG-80-zoned land in the county, which could pave the way for completion of a controversial 8,500foot concrete airstrip with an estimated 500 monthly landings being built on land owned by actor Bruce Willis.

At their meeting Nov. 27, the county commissioners will deliberate on a recommendation, sent up from the P&Z on Nov. 7, to make private airports registered with the Federal Aviation Administration a principal-designated use in the AG-80 zone, meaning they would be automatically allowed without any special permits—the same recommendation previously sent up to the commissioners, but ultimately not approved, in July.

The county commissioners deliberated on that recommendation but expressed a desire for more detailed definitions of categories of private airports based on size and use, as well as different restrictions based on those differences. The commissioners ultimately reworked the language and sent their draft revisions back to the P&Z, instead of passing the recommendation as it was sent to them.

The original recommendation would have allowed completion of Willis’ project, called Soldier Field Airport, without regulation from the county, other than that it register with the FAA and not be open to the general public. But the county commissioners’ revision would have required Soldier Field Airport to obtain a conditional-use permit from the county, which would allow public input on the project and allow the county to approve, deny or place restrictions on the project.

But this time, the deliberations will occur under a cloud of newly realized liability faced by the county if such a recommendation is not passed.

County Attorney Matt Pember said at the Nov. 7 P&Z meeting that someone pointed out to him that all private airports built in AG-80 since the passage of

the Idaho Local Land Use Planning Act in 1975 are illegal because the county’s current zoning code, mandated by LLUPA, doesn’t allow private airports in AG-80.

Originally, he said, he believed that such airports—which include most private airports in the county—were simply “nonconforming uses,� but he said it was recently brought to his attention that private airports on AG-80 land would only be nonconforming if they were built before LLUPA and the county’s zoning code, which followed shortly thereafter. Private airports built on AG-80 land after 1975 are illegal because they were built in conflict with the zoning code, he said, and if the county chose to enforce its ordinance, it could shut down, or “redtag,� the airports.

If the county were to redtag those airports—the number of which Pember and P&Z Chairman Jerry Nelson said they were unsure of but was likely around nine or 10—airport owners and operators could sue the county, each bringing his or her individual tort claim against the county that the county would have to defend against.

As the county attorney, Pember has prosecutorial discretion as to whether the county would actually red-tag illegal airports, and the county has historically turned a blind eye to their existence, but Pember stated in an email Tuesday morning that at least one person had mentioned they would send a demand letter to the county forcing it to enforce its ordinance and red-tag the airports.

Though he declined residents’ requests to mention names at the Nov. 7 meeting, on Tuesday afternoon Pember confirmed that Willis’ lawyer, Gary Slette, was the person who informed him that the airports were illegal, and that Slette, and possibly other attorneys, threatened to force Camas County to red-tag those airports if zoning was not passed.

Slette did not return repeated requests for comment.

Because of threats that the county will be forced to red-tag private airports, it is

faced with staving off that possibility by quickly passing zoning that would allow completion of Willis’ airport, or Slette and possibly others could force the closure of most or all private airports in the county, which Pember said includes commercial heli-ski operations. “The county has been assured that if no ordinance is in place [allowing airports], then a demand letter or letters will be sent to force us to apply code and red-tag the airports,� Pember wrote on Tuesday. “If the county does not act, the parties wishing to force enforcement could file for a writ of mandate from the court, which would [likely] be granted as the airports are technically illegal uses.�

At the Nov. 7 P&Z meeting in which he encouraged the P&Z to again recommend that the county commissioners allow airports on AG-80 land, Pember told P&Z commissioners that he guaranteed that someone would force the county to begin red-tagging airports the next day if the P&Z didn’t make the recommendation. He said there was not time to work on more refined language, such as the drafts from the county commissioners, and that the county needed to pass the P&Z’s recommendation to allow all private airports on AG-80 without restrictions.

At the meeting, Slette also strongly encouraged the P&Z to do the same, but he did not mention that eventual passage of such zoning in the county commission, once recommended by the P&Z, would allow for completion of Soldier Field Airport.

Ultimately, the P&Z voted 3-1 to again recommend that the county commissioners make private airports a principal-designated use on AG-80.

Pember said he will advise at the Nov. 27 meeting that the county commissioners pass the P&Z’s recommendation as written this time. He said putting a modified version of the proposed language through the public process required to pass it would be too time-consuming.

Pember said

he will advise that the county commissioners pass the P&Z’s recommendation.

On Bergdahl sentence, opinions in the valley vary widely Former Taliban prisoner could appeal dishonorable discharge

By TONY TEKARONIAKE E VA N S Express Staff Writer

The recent sentencing of former Taliban captive Bowe Bergdahl has brought a wide range of responses from the community he grew up in.

After facing a court-martial trial for desertion and misbehavior before the enemy, Bergdahl will serve no prison time but will receive a dishonorable discharge and lowering of rank that will bar him from receiving Army benefits, including health care through the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs.

“As a combat veteran, I am jaw-dropped that he is set free,” said Blaine County resident Samantha Vom Cleff, a veteran of the Iraq War. “He admitted to abandoning his post and many got injured and killed over what he did. When [as soldiers] we sign on the dotted line, we write a check payable for our life. We are in an all-volunteer military.

He should spend the rest of his life locked up. I could never imagine walking off my post, let alone in a war zone when so many lives depend on me.”

Bergdahl, of Hailey, left his post in Afghanistan in 2009, was captured by the Taliban and was freed five years later in a controversial prisoner exchange.

In 2014, CNN reported that his former platoon mates said Bergdahl is partly to blame for the deaths of six soldiers who were killed in the months after Bergdahl disappeared.

“Some soldiers have gone so far as to say the six died while searching for Bergdahl. Others say he is indirectly to blame— after Bergdahl vanished, essentially every operation became a mission to find their lost colleague in one way or another, they say,” CNN reported.

Gen. Robert B. Abrams, who convened the court-martial against Bergdahl, will review the sentence handed down by the judge, Col. Jeffrey Nance, and has the power to lessen it. If the sentence still includes punitive (dishonorable) discharge after Abrams’ review, the U.S. Army Court of Criminal Appeals will also review the sentence.

Many people who have commented on news stories about Bergdahl posted by the Idaho Mountain Express on its Facebook page agree with Vom Cleff, that Bergdahl’s punishment should have been much more severe. Others see more nuance to the situation.

Hailey resident Dayle Ohlau and others said Bergdahl’s case is part of a larger story about politics and U.S. interests at home and abroad.

“I believe it speaks to the mess of a misguided 16-year war,” Ohlau said. “This is a complex and multi-layered story that continues to be clouded in ignorance born of social media, vitriol and polarized news sources.”

Ketchum resident Russ Daggatt agreed that the Bergdahl case has become highly politicized, “no doubt because it was

President Obama who achieved his release. It would be nice to bring it back down to the human level.”

Hailey resident Arne Ryason said the U.S. military is to blame for enlisting Bergdahl after he washed out of the Coast Guard due to emotional problems.

“I believe it speaks to the mess of a misguided 16-year war.”

Dayle Ohlau Hailey resident

“Whoever did that ought to be in prison, but the chain of command can never be blamed,” Ryason said. “Just use a lowly soldier with mental issues as a scapegoat for the utter failure in Afghanistan. The U.S.A. is the world’s largest exporter of weapons and violence. That’s what I remember every time we have a mass-shooting here at home. What goes around comes around.”

Jack Bandevrics, an East Fork resident, served in Vietnam with the 173rd Airborne Brigade.

“I think he [Bergdahl] should have gotten some jail time,” Bandevrics said. “Otherwise, it sets a terrible precedent, that you can leave your post as a deserter, and not serve any jail time for it. The fact that he was captured and held for all those years was his own doing. We had deserters in Vietnam. A lot of them had hooked up with Vietnamese women. When they got caught, they went to jail and were court-martialed. That is milder in my opinion than leaving your post in a combat zone.”

Ketchum resident David Brod, also a Vietnam War veteran, said the Army missed an opportunity when Bergdahl was released.

“They could have punished him with 30 days of labor and returned him to duty as a corporal,” Brod said. “If I were in the military now, I would be inspired by serving in his unit.

Smell the sage, Bowe.”

Ketchum resident Mickey Garcia, also a veteran of the Vietnam War, said Bergdahl was not fit for military duty, but that he was enlisted anyway because the Army needed more recruits.

“When Bergdahl walked off his post in a guerrilla warfare zone, he had his head up his ass in a psychotic fantasy zone,” Garcia said. “He developed true grit and some degree of sanity in order to survive five years of Taliban captivity. Bergdahl should have been busted in rank and given a medical discharge, making him eligible for VA medical care because he acted honorably as a POW under physically and mentally abusive conditions.”

Garcia, who served three tours in Vietnam, contrasted the Bergdahl case to the case against Lt. William Calley and 26 other soldiers for the Mai Lai massacre of about 500 unarmed villagers during the Vietnam War. “They were mostly old men, women and children,” Garcia said, “[killed] without a single shot being fired against Calley’s platoon before, during or after the slaughter.”

Originally sentenced to life in prison, Calley served only three years under house arrest.

“Nixon kept Calley out of prison and Reagan commuted his sentence due to public sentiment,” Garcia said.

While some would like to see Bergdahl face a harsher sentence, others believe five years of torture and imprisonment was punishment enough for his actions.

Hailey resident Åsa Chandler said she is “stunned” to hear that some Wood River Valley residents are disappointed that Bergdahl didn’t receive a prison sentence.

“As if being starved and tortured for five years was not more than anyone should have to endure,” Chandler said. “I send healing love and compassion to Bowe and his family.”

Hailey resident Tamara Kondratief agreed that Bergdahl has suffered enough.

“Let him get some psychological help. Let Bowe and his loved ones live in peace, here in our hometown,” she said.

Hailey man pleads guilty to stalking Prosecutor recommends ‘extensive’ treatment

By JOSHUA MURDOCK Express Staff Writer

A Hailey man with a history of indecent-exposure charges pleaded guilty to felony stalking for repeated incidents that occurred between September 2016 and last spring.

Wayne McKenzie, 73, was charged June 19 and pleaded guilty at his arraignment before Judge Ned Williamson in Blaine County 5th District Court on Monday. The maximum penalty for the conviction is five years in state prison and a $10,000 fine. Blaine County Prosecuting Attorney Jim Thomas recommended that McKenzie be sentenced to five years of probation, 30 days in county jail, a fine at Williamson’s discretion and “pretty extensive psychosexual offender treatment.”

In spring, a female student at a public school in Hailey reported numerous instances of a man, later identified as McKenzie, in a white 1997 Chevrolet Blazer following her to and from school in Hailey and repeatedly driving around the block to watch her and her friends as they waited at bus stops in town. She said the incidents occurred during the fall and winter of 2016 and through the spring of 2017. The girl photographed the vehicle during one incident, and the

license plate showed it was registered to McKenzie.

Ultimately, Hailey Police Officer Brad Gelskey encountered McKenzie driving near the girl’s school when he responded to a report from the girl and her principal that McKenzie was again watching her. Gelskey stopped McKenzie, and “[w] hen I got to the driver’s side window I saw that McKenzie’s belt was undone, his pants were unzipped and his shirt was untucked. McKenzie seemed very nervous to me,” Gelskey reported.

Eventually, Gelskey wrote, McKenzie admitted he had been following the girl and masturbating in his car as he watched her.

Online court records show that McKenzie was convicted of misdemeanor public display of offensive sexual material in February 2014, in connection with a November 2013 incident. The charge was originally filed as misdemeanor indecent exposure but was later amended. Records show that McKenzie was convicted of misdemeanor indecent exposure in November 2005 in connection with a July 2005 incident. That charge was originally filed as a felony before it was amended to a misdemeanor, and a second count of felony indecent exposure was dismissed.

A sentencing hearing was scheduled for Jan. 8.

The McHanville neighborhood south of Ketchum, one area targeted for affordable housing, has seen a jumble of mixeduse development under the current code. But across the highway and to the south, projects in the South Gateway have been met with legal and infrastructure challenges.

SVED pitches new zone in county ‘Dual’ zoning proposed as solution for middle-income housing

Dr. Gene Branum to join

Dr. Ralph Campanale

I am pleased to announce that Dr. Gene Branum will be joining my practice beginning January 1st, 2018.

Dr. Branum is an exceptionally well qualified General Surgeon and Gastrointestinal Medicine Specialist.

I am certain that he will continue our office’s provision of compassionate, high quality and yet cost-effective care, particularly the tremendous savings to our community from in-office endoscopy and colonoscopy. I strongly recommend that the community take advantage of Dr. Branum’s knowledge and experience.

In the wake of city elections dominated by the topic of affordable housing, the nonprofit organization Sun Valley Economic Development pitched its own solution to spur development in the South Gateway area—south of Ketchum—earlier this month.

The idea is to create a new, “dual” zoning classification, which would allow landowners to access higher density allowances for market-rate middleincome projects, or build under the land’s existing designation.

In the South Gateway area southeast of St. Luke’s hospital, the new zone would also bypass aspects of the current Community Housing-Planned Unit Development overlay, an ordinance passed almost 15 years ago that similarly opens land up to higher-density development, but requires affordable, deedrestricted units to be constructed concurrently.

“We’re trying to find a solution that isn’t as dense as the current CH-PUD, but offers a more market-rate approach,” said SVED Executive Director Harry Griffith, who submitted the amendment that would add the new zone to county code.

“The goal is not to replace it, but to find a mechanism by which a developer has a clearer path than with the current overlay.”

As a stand-alone zone, Griffith’s plan would grant property owners “by-right” development; that protects them from legal challenges during the review process, which have stymied multiple attempts to building under the current code.

“Right now, there is a subjective set of criteria,” Griffith told the county commissioners during a preliminary presentation in October. “That leads to significant back-and-forth through the design, development and planning stages. It adds time, energy and, ultimately, cost—so developers go elsewhere.”

According to proponents, the fact that the South Gateway

“I’ve got a filing cabinet full of projects that never came to fruition because people sued them out of existence.”

Nathan Harvill

Blaine County Housing Authority remains largely untouched is enough to show the complexity of building under the current codes.

“If somebody just decides they don’t like the look of something, and can tell someone else what they can or can’t do, that’s not the free market, and it’s not letting a landowner enjoy their property,” said Nathan Harvill, executive director of the Blaine County Housing Authority. “I’ve got a filing cabinet full of projects that never came to fruition because people sued them out of existence. If there’s no injury that can be shown, no action should be taken.”

“The conversation needs to be about accommodating growth in the cities. It’s difficult to keep a rural county rural, rather than suburban.”

Larry Schoen Commissioner

That’s one major feature of the amendment. The other is the density it would allow. South Gateway’s underlying zoning is classified as R-1—one unit per acre. Working under the Community Housing Overlay, a developer could increase that to a mix of up to 13 open-market and deedrestricted units per acre. As filed, Griffith’s amendment falls in line with that number—and could be

modified to fit other more or less dense existing zones.

If adopted, the initial idea is to pilot the concept in South Gateway, where Griffith says he has lined up landowners to apply for rezoning.

Even still, they will encounter other problems that have hindered construction in the past, namely infrastructure.

“The idea from the very beginning is that that’s where higher-density housing is meant to go,” said county Land Use Director Tom Bergin. “For 12 years or more, we’ve heard plans to build those kinds of developments. From our perspective, the code is OK. The problem, in my sense, has been sewer.”

That’s the main difference between the central district of the overlay in McHanville, next to the hospital, and the largely undeveloped area to the south and east: The portion near the hospital is hooked into a sewer line served by the city of Ketchum and the Sun Valley Water and Sewer District.

It’s also a big reason why county land in the South Gateway area is so much cheaper— and appealing for developers to begin with. But projects would need to extend the municipal sewer line, negotiate to hook into the existing, nearby treatment plant owned by The Meadows development or build their own systems.

The first option is pricey and politically challenging. The second is also expensive—and, due to changes in EPA permitting, cannot be reproduced today.

But, according to Griffith, recent advancements are making the last one increasingly feasible.

“The blocker is not that you can’t do it; the blocker is the cost,” he said. “Technology has moved along enough that it’s reasonable to create a community sewer that meets the development’s needs, and the state standards.”

Those designs would use a See ZONING, Page 6

Idaho’s preliminary unemployment rate increased slightly in October to 2.9 percent, thanks to more people looking for work.

The unemployment rate was 2.8 percent in September, but 4,850 more people sought work in October, according to a news release from the Idaho Department of Labor.

That was one of the largest one-month increases to the labor force on record, according to the news release.

Total employment also set a one-month record in October. It grew by 4,246 to 804,924 people. The number of unemployed workers grew by 604 to 23,622.

In Blaine County, October’s preliminary unemployment rate was 2.5 percent, up from the revised rate of 2.3 percent in September.

Blaine County had 11,996 total workers in October, and 303 unemployed workers. In September, it had 11,954 employed workers and 278 unemployed workers, according to the Department of Labor.

ZONING Proposed zoning intended to boost housing Continued from Page 6 central plant to process waste, creating a discharge stream of treated, compliant “gray water” into what he calls a “community septic field.”

If the price is right, developers could deliver “village-style” residences in the $300,000 to $375,000 range. Griffith says that’s roughly the budget of the middle-income market, which he targets as 80- to 150-percent of the area median income. Using the most recent data from the American Community Survey, that comes to $48,070 to $90,132 for an individual, or $58,564 to $109,809 for a family in Blaine County.

But those numbers fall well above the units priced for 50to 100-percent of AMI that the current overlay is designed to deliver.

“That’s the one flaw I see in their proposal,” said County Commissioner Larry Schoen.

“It’s always been an area earmarked for density. But we envisioned hundreds of units of affordable housing in that area.”

In his presentation to the commissioners, Griffith agreed that the area could eventually accommodate “100-plus” units, but in the middle-income range.

If successful, the ordinance could be adapted to fit other

parcels, with other densities in county land.

“One reason that the topic of workforce housing in the Gateway area is such a hot topic is because no one wants to have the hard talk about increasing density inside city limits,” Schoen said. “This has become an act of politics—it’s easy to talk about housing density when it’s not in your jurisdiction.

“The county is not an obstacle to development … but it has policies that guide it towards urban areas. The conversation needs to be about accommodating growth in the cities. It’s difficult to keep a rural county rural, rather than suburban.”

The text amendment is currently under review by county Land Use staff. From there, it will go to Planning and Zoning Commission and then, if approved, before Schoen and the other county commissioners.

“It addresses an issue that both the county and the cities are struggling with—how do we accommodate middle-income housing?” Commissioner Jacob Greenberg said. “Land costs are so high here that its almost impossible to make that work without some sort of rezoning.

I’d like to hear what the public has to say about it. I hope we can have that discussion soon.”

Voyager is worth celebrating

earing the end of what has been a year like no other, it is easy to be jaded about, well, almost everything humans do on Earth. Fortunately, deep space provides a reason to celebrate.

Forty years ago, Voyager 1 took off on Sept. 5, 1977, 16 days after its twin, Voyager 2.

The plan was simple. Get as close as possible to Jupiter and Saturn.

At the time, the mission seemed cool enough, if not as sexy as manned flight. Four decades later, these odd-shaped inanimate vehicles have entered the pantheon of America’s most intrepid explorers.

Lewis and Clark exposed 19th-century Americans to the wonders of the Northern Rockies. Voyager 1 and 2 have exposed all of humankind to the wonders of other worlds.

The greatest American legacy to acknowledge on Thanksgiving is the right to say, “No thanks.”

The American government recognizes the nation’s citizens as individuals with rights that may not be abridged. These rights give us the freedom to fashion our individual journeys in life, to choose our associates and to decide where we will live and what work we will undertake.

This nation’s founders came to its shores seeking freedom from tyranny, oppression and poverty. They undertook a harrowing passage in small ships across the churning Atlantic Ocean because they said “No thanks” to the strictures of life in British society.

The first Thanksgiving was more than a celebration of survival. It was a celebration of hope that things could be different in a wild, new land. That yearning eventually ignited the Revolutionary War when the colonies threw off the yoke of British King George III. After America won the war, we began to govern ourselves by agreement instead of being ruled by a king, queen or tyrant who could command the biggest army or the biggest group of terrorist thugs. Yet even with

programs, taxation and politicians that we may heartily dislike. We can join with others to make our voices louder without fear of violent suppression.

On tomorrow’s day of thanks as we put our attitudes into gratitude for the freedoms that we share, for friends and family, and the holiday feast, let us not forget to include the right to say, “No thanks.”

that agreement, the tradition of “No thanks” continued in open debates and at the ballot box.

As Americans, we live in a society where the majority makes the rules, but in which the minority can become a majority any election year. It is a seesaw of power, hard to watch, but it works.

Even as part of an out-of-power minority, we can say “No thanks” loudly to policies,

Voyager was always more than a scientific instrument for our scientific edification, however. On board, each carries a golden disk embedded with pictures of humans, messages in 55 languages and the music of Mozart, Louis Armstrong and Chuck Berry.

After the sun and Earth no longer exist, in maybe 5 billion years according to project scientists, those little craft will still be traveling, carrying our little human conceit that someone will find a Voyager, listen to its golden record and maybe wonder what it all means.

As originally planned, the two Voyagers flew by Jupiter and then Saturn in 1979, 1980 and 1981, but then they kept going. They flew by the other planets in the solar system, then out into the empty spaces between our sun and other stars.

ardworking Idahoans earning between $38,000 and $62,000 are in the crosshairs again. It started in the Idaho Statehouse during the 2017 legislative session with an attempted tax giveaway to the rich. Now, the federal government is working feverishly to undermine our families at the behest of wealthy shareholders and major campaign donors. The U.S. Senate is also proposing to raise health care premiums on older Idahoans. It’s an unrelenting sucker punch to Idaho’s middle class.

According to 2016 U.S. Census Bureau records, Idaho’s median household income is about $51,800 ($6,000 below the national average). The nonpartisan Institute on Taxation and Economic Policy breaks down the U.S. House and Senate tax bills by income level. The “Middle 20 percent” of Idahoans—those of us who work full time and scrap for every penny—would receive

10 percent of the total tax cuts in 2018 under the House bill. Idaho’s wealthiest 20 percent would get 66 percent of the benefits.

Under the Senate bill, Idaho’s “Middle 20 percent” would get 11 percent of the tax cuts by 2019. The wealthiest 20 percent of Idahoans would get 64 percent of the benefits. By 2027, middle-class Idahoans may actually see their taxes go up. The Senate bill also includes a provision to repeal a key piece of the Affordable Care Act, which will drive premiums even higher.

The House bill is a roadmap for destroying working families and degrading our educational opportunities. It eliminates the deduction for student loan interest. It penalizes students who excel by taxing tuition waivers. The House bill also scraps the deduction for teachers who spend their own money on school supplies for your children.

This should sound familiar. In 2017, Idaho GOP House members proposed a bill to cut taxes on Idaho’s middle class by a whopping $32. Meanwhile, they ask you to raise your property taxes just to make sure your children’s school has a roof that doesn’t leak. Idaho’s wealthy would have gotten tax cuts of more than $1,500. Idaho

House Republicans are gearing up for 2018 to stick it to middle-class Idahoans again with a similar tax bill.

These giveaways create economic instability and threaten opportunity for our kids and grandkids. Don’t believe that cutting the corporate tax rate will spur hiring and capital investment. Company leaders don’t even believe it. Chief White House Economic Advisor Gary Cohn asked a roomful of CEOs whether they intended to increase capital investment if the federal tax plan passed. According to a CNBC headline, Cohn got “crickets.” In other words, virtually none of the CEOs indicated they would.

That shouldn’t be surprising. America’s corporations have been logging record profits for years. Shareholders benefit, not workers. Just last month, Wal-Mart announced it would spend $20 billion buying back its own stock. That’s great if you own Wal-Mart shares. It does nothing if you’re looking for work. Most politicians answer to their “shareholders” too. Corporations and special interests hold most of their stock.

If you’re tired of being sucker-punched, call your congressmen and senators and tell them to stop holding your arms back.

Clinton investigation should be welcomed

By M AYA J. B. B U R R E L L For the record, I am 100 percent in favor of a special counsel to investigate the Clinton/Obama/Uranium One deal. In my opinion, it’s about time.

About time for what, you ask? Well, for starters, we can all acknowledge that this is a Trump-initiated “red herring,” trying to take the spotlight off the investigations targeting him and his campaign.

But no such luck, Trump. The investigation is on and it’s coming for you. Furthermore, the Clintons are the most investigated people in the history of the world. There is absolutely nothing that this investigation will turn up to indict Hillary. Nine U.S. agencies signed off on this deal. In addition, the Clintons, for better or worse, depending upon your political affiliations, have learned long ago to protect themselves in any and all business dealings. Keep in mind, during the whole Hillary email fiasco, which is the one server that never got hacked by the Russians?

That’s right; the Clintons’ server. The only emails that were obtained by WikiLeaks, the FBI and the press came from correspondences that Clinton sent out to others. It was the other people’s emails that got hacked, including the government servers. Maybe we should hire the Clintons to head up our national security?

The only downside to a new special counsel appointment will be the money that U.S. taxpayers will be spending to foot the bill.

But here is why that money is worth it. It cracks open the old ways we have lived with, under which incoming administrations do not publicly investigate outgoing administrations. It has been thought that our democracy and the public couldn’t handle learning the truths about the corruptions within our system. An obvious example of this is why Obama did not appoint a special counsel to look into Dick Cheney’s ties to Halliburton, through which billions of dollars disappeared to independent contractors.

Congress and the public were given false information that launched us into the Iraq War (Americans died because of this), a CIA operative was betrayed in the field for political purposes and Cheney’s companies made millions of dollars as a result of it all.

This is just one example. Another is when candidate Richard Nixon sabotaged the end of the Vietnam War so he could get elected. There is a long list here of the guilty.

It would be absolutely the best thing ever to happen for our democracy if current administrations had a fear of accountability for when they leave office. No political party in the U.S. has absolute domination. That means the presidency and Congress are constantly changing in power. As a result, the bar of proof for prosecution will be very high.

Just imagine the awesomeness.

President Trump has only four years in office.

And eventually the Democrats will be a party in the majority in Congress again. If Trump cracks open this moratorium on investigating previous administrations, we might finally be able to get to the truth of our government cover-ups and corruptions. People serving in the Trump administration should be very afraid of non-friendlies launching investigations after they leave office. If for no other reason, I will be celebrating the Trump administration for giving us this new transparency and freedom.

So, fingers crossed, folks. Dear Trump (and AG Sessions): Please, please, please appoint a special counsel for this investigation. I feel it is a critical step for cleaning up the corruption in our government and well worth the cost. This is a monumental game-changer. Should we be afraid of yet another “witch hunt” on Hillary Clinton? I’m not. Why be afraid? People in power have created illusions about their integrity and the supposed fragility of our democratic process. Let’s get to the truth! Jack Nicholson, we “can handle it!”

Time to learn about sexual harassment I wish to offer my sincere, heartfelt apologies to everyone I upset or offended with my recent letter to the editor (Nov. 8) on the subject of sexual harassment. I know now that I should have done much more research into the subject before offering an opinion, and had I done so, I would have learned many terrible and tragic facts and statistics of which I was quite unaware. Thanks to guidance from The Advocates and others, I now have books to read and many other sources of information on which to draw and from which to learn.

The moral of this story is never venture an opinion on an important and complicated and painful issue before you know what you’re talking about. I won’t be writing any more letters to the editor for a while. I’m going to be too busy reading.

Valley gained from the Stansberrys We lost the other half of the great ones recently. John and Pat Stansberry touched so many lives in our valley. I was lucky enough to get to know them in their retirement. They were still teaching—never really stopped. Pat with her “Let the wild rumpus start” and John’s loud boisterous “Neato!”

They were both extraordinary evidence of what’s good and right in education. They inspired students and teachers around them to keep learning and teaching; to be curious about the world around them and live life to the fullest.

Even through health problems, John had this engaging personality that made you want to jump up and enjoy life. He could turn the ordinary walk around the block into a major expeditionary adventure. There were times he would just show up in my classroom in his retirement, “just to check what’s going on.” He’d yell out “Neato!” and all the kids would crowd around him—he was a kid magnet. He’d sit in a chair and ramble on and on about what could have been the most mundane subject—and make it so interesting that we all wanted to go along for the ride.

John was the master treasure hunter and tinkerer; Pat the humorist, both pointing out the irony in life’s little moments. What a great pair of educators. What incredibly lucky students who have had them.

Both their laughter and smiles brought you in. You were immediately comfortable. You knew a great story was about to begin, and like the kids they taught, those lucky enough to teach with them, couldn’t resist learning or listening to their stories.

They made you feel good. They made

John would take apart or collect anything. He’d bring it into my classroom and the kids and I would go along for another one of his rides. I still have old car and mining parts, rocks, recycled junk in my classroom from his personal field trips.

He’d find treasure in other people’s junk, and then make sure we all saw the shine within it. I learned a ton from those moments, and I keep his ideas at the forefront of my teaching today.

My favorite day with John came on a class canoe field trip to Silver Creek. We have a mission at the Community School where we want to instill a passion for life and our natural environment. There were no organized lessons on that day, none needed. We just sat back and watched John live it, show us how it’s done.

I encourage everyone who knew this marvelous teaching couple to offer a libation and spill a bit of your drinks in their honor. They will be smiling at us and continue giving us the energy to keep learning, exploring and teaching.

Thank you, John and Pat, for letting all of us catch a glimpse of how great the ride can be.

TRENT HERBST Ketchum

According to Diana Fassino (letters, Nov. 8) the gathering chorus of women who are coming out to out male predators is a knee-jerk “me too” reaction by a legion of sexily dressed temptresses who simply fail to be flattered by the “innocence and harmless fun” of a grope. It’s the media’s fault.

Boomers generally share her attitude. The same folks who burned bras and cavorted naked in the rain puddles of Woodstock have managed to make excuses for, and turn a blind eye to, the pervasive ugliness of sexual harassment in all its forms, from the whistle, to a pat on the butt, to the employer’s extortion, to the rape. The genie cannot be put back in the bottle, and denial cannot reconstruct history. The ’50s were a terrible time for women in the workplace. There was very little good in those “good old days.”

As a 74-year-old white male, I can only quote ESPN’s “Come on, man!”

Make it a holiday for turkeys, too Why pardon a turkey?

President Trump is getting his pardon pen ready, as the Mueller investigation starts indicting his associates. This Wednesday, he plans to practice on two very innocent Minnesota turkeys.

The other 244 million turkeys killed in the U.S. this year have not been so lucky. They were raised in crowded sheds filled with toxic fumes. Their beaks and toes were clipped to prevent stress-induced aggression. Slaughterhouse workers cut their throats and dumped them in boiling water to remove their feathers at 16 weeks of age.

Consumers pay a heavy price, too. Turkey flesh is laced with cholesterol and saturated fats that elevate risk of chronic killer diseases. Intense, prolonged cooking is required to destroy deadly pathogens lurking inside.

Now, for the good news: Per-capita consumption of turkeys is down by a whopping 34 percent from a 1996 high of 303 million, as onethird of our population is actively reducing meat consumption. Our supermarkets carry a rich variety of convenient, delicious, healthful plant-based meat products, including several oven-ready roasts.

This Thanksgiving holiday, as we give thanks for life and good fortune, let’s also skip the gratuitous violence and grant our own pardon to an innocent animal.

More changes proposed to SNRA travel plan Comments sought on road closures

By GREG MOORE Express Staff Writer

In response to public comments, the U.S. Forest Service is proposing more changes to its motorized travel plan on the Sawtooth National Recreation Area within the Big Wood River drainage.

The planning area has about 60 miles of forest system roads, 9.6 miles of motorized trails, 103 miles of summer nonmotorized trails, 32 miles of ski trails maintained on summer roads or trails, and 45 miles of unauthorized routes.

The SNRA began the Big Wood travel management planning process in spring 2014 to address resource and enforcement issues related to the unauthorized vehicle routes within the watershed.

In a scoping report in July 2016, the agency stated that changes to the SNRA’s Big Wood Travel Management Plan would include closing and restoring 37 miles of those routes.

The Forest Service also proposed to naturalize 6.6 miles of authorized roads that it believes are causing resource damage, primarily to soil, water and wildlife. Some of those roads are in riparian areas and are damaging aquatic habitat, the agency stated.

The SNRA proposed to convert 4.6 miles of roads to nonmotorized trail.

In a draft environmental analysis released last week, the Forest Service stated that changes to the original proposal would result in 9 miles of road being closed and naturalized and 2.8 miles being converted to trails.

Additional proposed actions include restricting dispersed camping to designated campsites, as it has done on the adjacent Ketchum Ranger District. Currently in the SNRA, campers are allowed to drive cross-country 300 feet from the center line off any designated route. The environmental analysis notes that many access routes to popular camping areas far exceed that distance.

“This change better addresses the desire for quality camping opportunities and need to mitigate impacts such as loss of vegetation, soil compaction, erosion and inappropriate disposal of human waste,” the agency stated in the EA. Mileage of Forest Service roads would be reduced from about 60 miles to about 50. Trail mileage open to motorcycles would be slightly increased from 9.6 to 9.7.

Under the revised proposal, the 3.5-mile Owl Creek Road, on the west side of state Highway 75 south of Galena Lodge, would be eliminated and the area recontoured to a natural form. The agency stated that the road is harming the stream, and vehicle crossings of the Big Wood River to access the road put sediment in the river. Project Manager Robin Garwood said in an interview that planners decided not to convert the road to a trail.

“Everything is in the bot-

tom and converting it to a trail wouldn’t solve our riparian issues,” Garwood said.

The agency also proposes to close North Cherry Creek Road, which is 0.9 miles long just south of Galena Lodge on the east side of the highway. The road connects to a 0.7-mile segment of closed road to form the North Cherry ski trail. Restoration actions proposed in North Cherry Creek would consist of the full 1.6 miles of road, which would prevent ski trail grooming. As a result, the full length of the North Cherry ski trail would be lost.

The proposal also includes closure of Horse Creek Road, which is 0.48 miles long on the east side of the highway just north of Galena Lodge. The road doubles as a groomed ski trail, but the agency stated that decommissioning the road will not affect that use. The ski trail would use the decommissioned route or the adjacent meadow as needed, the environmental analysis states.

The 3.3-mile-long road up Silver Creek, on the east side of the highway at the base of the Boulder Mountains, would be closed at the 2.4-mile point and the remainder converted to a nonmotorized trail. The change would allow access to the existing trail to Silver Lake.

Changes would also be made to the North Fork trailhead, at the end of the road that begins next to the SNRA visitor center. The environmental analysis notes that the existing parking lot is within a riparian area and cannot accommodate the number of vehicles that current use demands, and expansion is impractical. The trailhead would be relocated 0.4 miles downstream to the existing overflow parking area often used for stock trailer parking. That section of road would be converted to trail.

Garwood said the Forest Service hopes to complete a final travel management plan by spring.

A 30-day period is open for submission of public comments on the draft environmental analysis. Comments can be submitted to Area Ranger Kirk Flannigan, Sawtooth National Recreation Area, 5 North Fork Canyon Road, Ketchum, ID 83340, fax 208-727-5029.

Electronic comments can be submitted to comments-intermtn-sawtooth-nra@fs.fed.us; include “Big Wood Travel Management” in the subject line.

The draft environmental analysis can be found at fs.usda. gov/project/?project=49367.

BRIEFS Donate books for children People can help share the joy of reading with a child this holiday season by donating a new book to put in a Sawtooth Board of Realtors’ holiday basket. The Hailey Public Library will take donated books for holiday gifts until Dec. 9.

Books for children and young adults are needed, including board books for little ones, books for beginning readers, chapter books and especially young-adult books for teen readers.

Turkey Trot set for Thursday One of the most popular holiday traditions in the Wood River Valley is the annual Turkey Trot, held on Thanksgiving morning. The 5K Fun Run and Walk on Nov. 23 is sponsored by The Chamber.

Nearly 600 people are expected to enjoy trotting on Thanksgiving Day in downtown Hailey, along the Big Wood River and through the Wood River Land Trust’s Draper Wood River Preserve.

The Turkey Trot starts at 10 a.m. at Sturtevants in Hailey, 1 West Carbonate St. “It’s the perfect way to burn off some calories with your friends and neighbors before the big feast. Come out and join us,” said Jeff Bacon, The Chamber’s executive director.

Pre- and post-race, participants can enjoy free coffee and small treats provided compliments of Black Owl Coffee, Java in Hailey and Hailey Coffee Co. New this year, Warfield Distillery will offer a hot toddy and bloody mary cash bar, and Sturtevants will offer a 10 percent same-day discount on merchandise to all registered trotters with a bib.

All participants are encouraged to pre-register online through 2 p.m. today, Nov. 22, at www.discoverwoodrivervalley.org. Registration can also be done in person at The Chamber, in the visitor center at 781 S. Main St. in Hailey today from 9 a.m. to 2 p.m.

Pre-registration fees are $15 per adult, $10 per child (10 and under) or a $40 Family Package (up to four immediate family members, and $10 for each additional). Family Package includes two Turkey Trot swag items. Each participant’s name needs to be listed in the comments section of the registration form. Participants who are not listed will be identified as Turkey Trotter for their race bib number.

There will also be day-of registration at $30 per person.

School District seeks candidates for Calendar Committee The Blaine County School District board of trustees is seeking applications to serving on its Calendar Committee, which will propose recommendations for school calendars starting in the 2019-20 school year.

Those interested should send a letter by 5 p.m. on Friday, Dec. 1, to the board’s clerk, Amanda LaChance, at amandalachance@ blaineschools.org. The board of trustees will appoint members to the committee during its regular meeting on Dec. 12.

Power Academy students make gains Evaluation results show students in second, third, fifth and sixth grades enrolled in the Power Scholars Academy at Wood River Community YMCA, organized by Boston-based nonprofit BELL (Building Educated Leaders for Life), gained 1.5 months in literacy skills and two months in math skills, according to a news release from the organization.

Power Scholars Academy was launched in 2013 by the YMCA of the USA and BELL in collaboration with local YMCA associations and schools to prevent summer academic slide, which reverses achievement gains made during the school year.

BECAUSE WE’RE

GRATEFUL FOR YOUR BUSINESS

We Are Giving

Late last Wednesday afternoon, Bryant Dunn sat for a beer at the back of Grumpy’s bar in Ketchum.

Outside, snow massed on the high peaks and socked in the summit of Bald Mountain. As the sun gave way, the first few flakes settled down on the valley floor. By morning, 10 fresh inches would fall on top of Baldy, and in a week, ski season, teased for a month, would finally open.

For Dunn, it had already begun. He’d been up on the mountain hours early, and that’s where he’d be again tomorrow—and the next day and nearly every day thereafter until 12:35 p.m. on April 16, 2018, when he’ll hop a flight to Thailand, and wrap up his 17th season on the Sun Valley Ski Patrol.

As a supervisor, Dunn helps manage the 50 or so men and women who make up one of the oldest professional ski patrols in the country. Their motto: “Haulin’ the Fallin’ since 1936.�

By summer, they’re firefighters and fishing guides, consultants and contractors, retirees and attorneys. There’s a former pro hockey player, and the current head professional at the Sun Valley Golf Club. There’s a writer, with an MFA to back up his chemical engineering degree from Stanford. There’s a guy named Bubba.

And then there’s Bryant Dunn, now 48, but once a kid from Seattle who grew up skiing Crystal Mountain, watching Warren Miller films and thinking about the slopes of Sun Valley. “I idolized everything about those movies—not just the athletes, but the patrollers, too. It was a dream to move to Sun Valley,� he said.

So, 25 years ago, he did. It took Dunn eight years to maneuver

“It was just about the hardest job to get in the state of Idaho.�

Bryant Dunn

Sun Valley Ski Patrol supervisor his way onto the patrol in 2001. “I worked in about every bar, and mopped about every floor in town before I got hired,� he said. “I got to know the patrollers. Or, I got to know what bars they went to, and I started going to the same ones. Then, when a spot opened up, I went for it. It was just about one of the hardest jobs to get in the state of Idaho.�

It still is.

Last Friday, seven new recruits earned their way on after five hours of examination, and months of studying all 1,300 pages of the patroller’s bible, the Outdoor Emergency Care manual. Spots can be hard to come by, since patrollers rarely leave; one, Rich Bingham, has worked with the patrol since 1967. “We used to call it ‘cowboy rescue,’� Dunn said. “Grab the toboggan. Splint ’em up, and get ’em down.�

Now, the job is evolving—

thanks, in part, to Dunn. This year, he’ll oversee the patrol’s debut drone program to monitor the safety of lifts, aid in searches and check the stability of the snowpack without putting patrollers at risk.

But some things haven’t changed in Dunn’s 16 years—or, for that matter, Bingham’s 50. “We’re still the first ones up, and the last ones down,� Dunn said.

So, it’s 7 a.m. in the boot room, and the patrollers are ready to gear up and go in time to watch the sun rise from the top of Baldy.

Then, there’s the 8 a.m. meeting to receive instruction and get assignments. By 8:30, they’re out prepping the mountain. And, at 9, the lifts start spinning.

From there, like always, its anyone’s guess what happens next. For guys like Dunn, that’s part of the appeal. “Every day is unique—that’s one of the best parts of the job,� he said. “Some days you’re dealing with heavy trauma. Some days, it’s manual labor. Some days, it’s just world-class skiing.

And sometimes, its all three at once.�

Some aspects, though, are set in stone: When the lifts stop, patrollers will sweep the mountain for stragglers. And by 5, they’ll be on their way to Apple’s for a beer.

That routine’s unlikely to change any time soon. Years from now, if any of Dunn’s children choose to patrol, there will still be the afternoon sweep, and, God willing, a beer at Apple’s.

Each of his four kids—Maddy, 14, Amanda, 12, Daker, 4, and Hunter, 3—are Ketchum locals.

True to form, from the time each one could walk, their father has taken them skiing.

Successful recovery ‘baffles her doctors,’ fundraiser says Express Staff Writer

A 21-year-old woman who suffered serious injuries in a Sept.

13 crash on state Highway 75 north of Hailey was discharged from Saint Alphonsus Regional Medical Center in Boise in early November and transferred to a rehabilitation center in Spokane, Wash., where she’s originally from.

According to the latest update on the GoFundMe campaign for Lindi Mattinson’s recovery, which the site indicates was posted Nov. 2, “Lindi has recovered to a point that baffles her doctors, and was discharged and life-flighted to a rehab center in Spokane.”

The update also stated that rehab will be “the most critical and rigorous” phase of her recovery. A previous update, posted in mid-October, stated that Mattinson’s father hoped that the funds raised on GoFundMe could help purchase prosthetics to replace the leg Mattinson lost in the accident.

According to other updates, during her nearly six-week hospitalization, Mattinson, a former Junior Olympics gymnast,

underwent surgeries to remove her spleen, to prevent her remaining leg from being amputated, to insert rods into the femur of one of her legs, to stabilize a hip and to stabilize her tibia.

Sandy Flores, the Washington state chairwoman for USA Gymnastics who started the GoFundMe campaign, said Mattinson had married Nathan Marcusen two weeks prior to the crash, and the pair moved to the Wood River Valley two days prior to the accident for a landscaping job that Marcusen had accepted.

She said Marcusen has since left his job to join Mattinson’s family during Mattinson’s recovery.

As of midday Thursday, 340 donations over two months totaled $32,210—more than the campaign’s first two goals of raising $25,000 and then $30,000. The family is still requesting donations for what will be an extensive and expensive recovery, and the GoFundMe goal has been increased to $35,000. Individual contributions range from $7 to an anonymous $5,000 donation.

DUNN Bryant Dunn ready for 17th season on patrol Continued from pervious apge upwards, packing down the fresh-fallen snow.

By sunrise tomorrow, Dunn will be out on it, arcing the first fresh turns of the morning, taking in the last calm days before the real work begins.

“When we’re called to act, someone is having the worst day

of their life,” he said. “Our job— our duty—is to do what we can to help.

“I feel like at this point, I don’t really have a choice. It’s a calling.

had paid $11,000 as a cash deposit, and the court decided that $8,000 of that should be awarded to the city. By May, Hammer owed the city about $59,000.

Throughout 2017, the Blaine County Clerk’s Office attempted to collect that debt by seizing Hammer and Donoval’s personal property, or through wage garnishment. They now live in Eagle.

In response, the pair fought back in court, arguing that the collection attempts were improper and Hammer does not earn enough to have her wages garnished.

In an affidavit with the court in August, Hammer said she has been unable to find work in public administration since 2012 “because of the stigma of false accusation of criminal conduct made against me by Sun Valley officials and attorneys.�

In 2013, she enrolled in a master’s degree program at Idaho State University, and is now seeking to begin a career in counseling. In getting the degree, she accrued $70,000 in student loan debt, records indicate.

Listing their assets and liabilities with the court, Hammer and Donoval cited the student loans, the $59,000 judgment, $30,000 in credit card debt, $30,000 in fees owed to their attorneys and $8,000 owed for condominium association dues.

They listed a Chicago-area condominium that’s worth $125,000, though it carries a $130,000 mortgage. They stated they own $12,500 worth of household furnishings, $10,000 in

personal property, $5,000 in business equipment and two cars worth $6,500 total.

The collections process was going to culminate with a debtors’ examination in Ada County, but the rulings from the Supreme Court and the 9th Circuit intervened.

Settlement agreement With the civil assault case revived, Ribi’s attorney, Kirt Naylor, and Donoval began settlement negotiations.

Naylor offered two options to settle the case. The first option would satisfy the $59,000 debt and pay $20,000 to Hammer to settle the civil assault lawsuit. The second option offered to satisfy the $59,000 debt and pay Hammer $100,000 to settle the civil assault case and the federal lawsuit.

Hammer and Donoval agreed to the first option, and signed a settlement agreement. The agreement said the lawsuit would be dismissed “with prejudice.� The lawsuit cannot be refiled because the statute of limitations has expired on the civil assault claim.

As part of settlement agreement, Naylor sent a check worth $79,000 to Wyatt Johnson, an attorney working for Hammer who’s handling the federal case.

After depositing the check, Hammer was supposed to order Johnson to send a $59,000 check made out to the city of Sun Valley to Naylor and the case would be dismissed. That didn’t happen.

In court Monday, Naylor said the $79,000 check had not been cashed.

Donoval and Hammer, on Johnson’s advice, objected to the “with prejudice� stipulation because they felt it could jeopardize the federal lawsuit, if Lodge ruled that the assault claim had already been decided in state court.

Naylor filed a motion with Williamson to enforce the settlement agreement. Naylor said he would not bring up the state lawsuit in

the federal case. “Ribi complied with his obligation,� Naylor wrote to Williamson. “It is only Hammer and her attorney’s refusal to abide by the clear and unambiguous terms of the settlement agreement that is holding up the timely resolution of this lawsuit.�

“We are at a Mexican standoff in this process.�

Jim Donoval

Attorney for Sharon Hammer Williamson held a hearing on that motion Monday afternoon.

Donoval said he didn’t trust Naylor’s assurances. “We don’t trust each other,�

Donoval said. “We don’t know what Judge Lodge is going to do.

We are at a Mexican standoff in this process.�

Williamson promised a ruling this week that would end the civil assault lawsuit, but noted that the federal case may take much longer to conclude. “It could be years before the federal matter is resolved,� Williamson said.

Federal case still pending A lawsuit filed by Sharon Hammer against the city of Sun Valley is still pending in U.S. District Court in Boise. District Court Judge Edward Lodge dismissed the case in 2015, but it was revived earlier this year because Hammer and her husband, attorney Jim Donoval, won a partial appellate victory before the 9th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals. A new trial date has yet to be set in that case.

VOTED VALLEY’S BEST SKI SHOP & VALLEY’S BEST CUSTOMER SERVICE

HOUSING Project plans 8 to 10 community-housing units Continued from Page 1 are enthusiastically happy to have put the money into the city’s bank account. I’m certainly not telling you what to do with the money we gave you.”

Scovell said the project is rare in Ketchum.

“We’re desperate for housing,” she said. “We’ll start in the spring, if it works out. It’s in the bag. It’s on the way.”

Bundy also asked the city to waive some fees associated with the project, arguing they’re much more punitive than if they were developing large, luxury units.

Galena Lofts’ units will be 650 to 1,100 square feet in size, but they will owe the city of Ketchum $24,150 in entitlement fees and $218,904 in impact fees, based on the number of units.

Bundy said if they were building five units on the same property that were 3,300 square feet in size, they’d owe the city $9,150 in entitlement fees and $67,485 in impact fees.

“Everything is so expensive it makes it almost impossible to do,” she said. “We’ve applied for grants and haven’t gotten them. We’re asking for the city to chip in.”

They asked the council to contribute $800,000 to increase the number of community-housing units to eight, or $1.3 million to increase the number of community-housing units to 10.

Their per-square-foot cost is $414, but the Blaine County Housing Authority requires that a sales price be $185 per-square-foot to qualify to be sold as a community-housing unit.

That left a $225 per-square-foot difference, which Bundy asked the city to help fill with its in-lieu funds.

One of the units would be a studio that would be for rent, but the others would be sold.

Scovell said she and Bundy would love to develop rental units, but that wouldn’t work financially.

City Attorney Matthew Johnson said he wants to analyze the legality of the city’s paying into an affordable-housing development project.

Mayor Nina Jonas, Councilmen Jim Slanetz and Michael David and Councilwoman Anne Corrock spoke favorably of the project.

Councilman Baird Gourlay was absent Monday. Mayor-elect Neil Bradshaw said he also supports it.

“To me, that is exactly what the in-lieu fees were created to do,” David said.

He said he favors spending $800,000 to create eight units of affordable housing.

“This is really exciting to be able to get some units right around the corner,” he said.

Slanetz said he hopes it could be a model for future affordable-housing development in Ketchum.

“I hope this isn’t a unique project,” he said.

The

$800,000 will come out of the city’s in-lieu housing fund.

A federal judge has rejected a claim by Western Watersheds Project that livestock grazing must be stopped in Copper Basin until fish habitat there improves.

In a lawsuit filed in U.S. District Court in Boise in June 2015, the Hailey-based conservation group contended that overgrazing on the Salmon-Challis National Forest had resulted in trampled and denuded streambanks in the Big Lost River basin, east of Trail Creek Summit. The suit asked the court to hold the Forest Service’s 2015 authorization of grazing permits there unlawful and to issue an injunction prohibiting grazing.

In a 45-page opinion issued Oct. 31, Judge Ronald Bush dismissed the suit on the grounds that Western Watersheds had not shown a “pervasive, chronic history of non-compliance” with the terms of grazing permits and that “the picture of wholesale habitat degradation painted by Western Watersheds simply does not square with the evidence.”

“The End of Season records indicate that even if permittees did not always achieve perfect compliance with the terms of their respective grazing permits, they mostly met their annual use indicators for stubble height and woody browse cover,” the judge stated.

Bush also ruled that the Forest Service’s methodology for measuring the effects of grazing is a matter of scientific judgment entitled to deference by the court.

The ruling noted that the Multiple-Use Sustained-Yield Act requires the Forest Service to manage forest lands to provide for a wide variety of activities.

In an interview, Western Watersheds Project Idaho Director Scott Lake said the organization intends to appeal the decision, focusing on the court’s deference to the Forest Service’s science.

“The ruling says those standards apply, but

Express file photo

The Copper Basin area is east of Trail Creek Summit, which is northeast of Sun Valley and Ketchum. the public isn’t allowed to enforce them,” he said.

“All the Forest Service had to say was that it isn’t grazing that’s causing the problem, but they didn’t have an alternative explanation.”

Lake said the Forest Service is required by the National Forest Management Act to act in accordance with the Salmon-Challis National Forest management plan, and that plan requires progress in improving aquatic habitat at nearly the rate that would occur under natural conditions.

Despite his ruling, Bush did note that a Forest Service study of aquatic conditions since the 10-year permits were issued in 2015 indicates that changes to grazing permit terms may be appropriate in the future.

Todd Kaplan, a Ketchum fishing guide and outdoor photographer, said fishing for cutthroat and rainbow trout in the Big Lost River and other Copper Basin streams is “pretty decent,” but there aren’t many fish.

“There’s a lot of sedimentation from the cattle grazing,” he said. “It’s the worst overgrazing I’ve seen anywhere in the West.

“Hopefully, there will be a day when there aren’t these issues up there and we can enjoy it without walking through cow pies.”

State, FEMA move closer on flood insurance Meeting deemed ‘a solid step forward’

By MARK DEE Express Staff Writer

Idaho and FEMA are working to close the gap between state law and federal code that, if left unaddressed, could decertify nearly 8,000 statewide policies under the National Flood Insurance Program.

A working group of state agencies led by the Idaho Department of Water Resources met with FEMA representatives earlier this month, aiming to develop a set of guidelines that will keep the program on the rails in the state—and clear up the muddied communication that has dogged the process thus far.

“I think this was a solid step forward,” said Mark Carey, Mitigation Division director for FEMA’s Region X office. “Congratulations to the IDWR, they’ve put in a lot of work. We’re on the path to working this out.

“But this is not a new issue between FEMA and Idaho. At a granular level, there’s still a lot of work to do.”

The next step is to hash out a set of rules that lays out what sort of work can and cannot be done without permits inside the floodplain. In 2010, the Legislature added language to Idaho law exempting maintenance to irrigation and drainage structures from local permitting processes.

According to FEMA, that’s at odds with the Federal Code of Regulations, which spells out standards local governments need to enforce to guarantee par-

ticipation in the flood insurance program. If FEMA continues to see what it considers violation, enforcement means suspending the program.

“It was necessary to see where FEMA was on the subject,” said IDWR Deputy Director Mat Weaver, who left the meeting with two key takeaways.

First, he said, FEMA supports the state’s effort to create “guidance material” to spell out what work is allowable as routine, and what requires further vetting or permitting. Second, FEMA will not issue a “surprise” suspension without advanced notice.

That had been a real fear for the past year or so, Weaver said. As of August, the National Flood Insurance Program covered nearly $2.1 billion in property across the state. About $370 million worth falls inside Blaine County—1,245 policies in all.

“We’re on the same page,” Weaver said. “If we continue on this path, I’m quite hopeful that we’ll be able to [settle it], and do it with guidance, rather than amending state statute.”

According to Carey, the next step—a legal review scheduled for December—will have something to say about that. Both sides hope to see the set of guidelines on the table before the Idaho Water Users Association’s annual meeting in January.

“There’s no disagreement over the importance of the program in the state—everyone gets it,” Carey said.

Experts: Salmon program is killing rare fish Idaho officials eye solutions

By KEITH RIDLER Associated Press

BOISE—A relatively new $13.5 million hatchery intended to save Snake River sockeye salmon from extinction is instead killing thousands of fish before they ever get to the ocean, and fisheries biologists in Idaho think they know why.

The Department of Fish and Game in information released this week says water chemistry at the Springfield Hatchery in eastern Idaho is so different from that in the central region that the young fish can’t adjust when released into the wild.

An estimated 150,000 sockeye used to return annually to central Idaho, but the run began to decline in the early 1900s, leaving the species teetering on the brink of extinction in the early 1990s.

The fish have been the focus of an intense recovery program. The Springfield hatchery was completed in 2013. Salmon eggs from a hatchery in Eagle and the federally operated Burley Creek Hatchery in Washington are transported to Springfield, where they are raised until they are ready for release as young fish, called

smolts, into the Salmon River.

The goal has been to release 1 million smolts with the hope that up to 5,000 of them could survive the ocean odyssey to return annually as adults to Redfish Lake. This year, 162 adults returned, none from the Springfield Hatchery.

Fish and Game officials say smolts from the hatchery released in central Idaho are not surviving.

The main theory, officials say, is that water at the Springfield Hatchery has a high amount of dissolved minerals, called hard water, while the water at Redfish Lake and the Salmon River does not, making it soft water.

Young fish headed for the ocean transition from living in fresh water to salt water. Biologists say the additional stress of trying to also adjust from hard water to soft water could be killing the salmon.

Idaho officials say they plan on trying various solutions, including releasing fish directly into Redfish Lake in the fall as presmolts, raising more sockeye at the Sawtooth Hatchery in central Idaho and gradually softening water as fish are transported from the Springfield Hatchery in trucks to central Idaho.

On Monday afternoon, The Hunger Coalition gave out 390 Thanksgiving turkeys with all the fixin’s—and a lot of help.

Some 45 volunteers, including the entire staff of Higher Ground, lined up in the Community Campus gym in Hailey to help pack the annual Thanksgiving baskets full of everything needed to fill out the holiday: mashed potatoes, green beans, yams, cranberry sauce, pies baked by students from the Sage, Pioneer Montessori and Syringa Mountain schools, and, of course, turkeys.

The volunteers hauled those in from a trailer outside, packed in 50-pound boxes and dusted in wet afternoon snow. They lined the wall beneath the backboards of the gym, stacked 5 feet high.

In a few hours, another 30 volunteers would come in to hand it all out—for each family a turkey, a pie packed in a pizza box, a full brown grocery bag and a card on top with a simple message: Happy Thanksgiving.

“This is my favorite day of the year, by far,” said Naomi Spence, associate director of The Hunger Coalition. “So many people come together, and they do so much. It’s something to see.”

Elsewhere in the valley, other

Volunteers from Higher Ground help The Hunger Coalition put together 390 Thanksgiving baskets in the BCRD gym in Hailey on Monday, Nov. 20. members are chipping in, too.

Last Thursday, Our Lady of the Snows Foundation and the Souper Supper group—both affiliated with Catholic churches in the valley—came together to give away 30 frozen turkeys and eight chickens to families in Hailey.

And tomorrow, Thanksgiving Day, Souper Supper will host a free holiday meal at 5:30 p.m. in St. Charles Parrish Hall, in Hailey.

Starting Nov. 30, The Hunger Coalition will extend its Bellevue food-pantry hours to meet demand: It’s open Mondays from 1-6:30 p.m. and Thursdays from 4-6:30 p.m. The Ketchum pan-

try, located at the Presbyterian Church of the Big Wood, holds hours on Thursdays from 3:304:30 p.m. For more information on how to get help, or help out, go to www.thehungercoaliton.org.

Back at the gym, Cara Barrett, Higher Ground’s director of recreation programs, was helping her son stuff jars of gravy into the endless train of open brown bags.

“This is a great way to explain to him, there are less-fortunate families here,” she said. “And, to show him how great our community is—that everyone here is chipping in to make this happen.”

A pickup truck carrying two women overturned on an icy highway north of Ketchum on Nov. 14, sending one woman to the hospital with injuries that required an air ambulance flight to Boise.

According to Ketchum Assistant Fire Chief Tom Ancona, personnel responded to a 7:58 a.m. report of a motor-vehicle rollover accident with injuries on state Highway 75 near the beaver ponds north of Lake Creek Road. When crews arrived at 8:09 a.m., he said, they found a two-wheel-drive Ford pickup truck that

had overturned and rolled back onto its wheels, coming to rest off the east edge of the roadway.

Ancona said the truck, which had been traveling northbound, likely crashed as a result of extremely slick, icy road conditions that developed rapidly over the course of a few minutes that morning.

Another person drove to the scene to pick up the driver, Ancona said, but crews had to perform a “rapid extrication” of the passenger, who was transported to St. Luke’s Wood River hospital with “significant injuries” at 8:16 a.m., and later flown to a hospital in Boise for further treatment.

Construction Academy builds toward future BCSD program receives $11,080 in scholarship funding

By MARK DEE Express Staff Writer

The Residential Construction Academy at Wood River and Carey high schools gives students a chance for some hands-on learning, building real houses out in the community.

Last Friday, on the corner of Winterhaven and Woodside in Hailey, the community came back to lend a helping hand of its own.

Franklin Building Supply, working with nine local contractors, presented the program with a $10,000 check to help fund scholarships to students pursuing careers in construction management after high school. The Blaine County Education Foundation also pitched in $1,180 of its money.

“I feel like a proud mom right now,” said Franklin Building’s Jenny Linch, who organized

the fundraising events. “This is phenomenal.”

On a sunny and cold afternoon, Wood River students took a break from their work to take the check, and then they got back to it.

Led by teacher Greg Urbany, more than 50 Wood River students are building their third house in Hailey, learning on the way. In Carey, Greg Carlson’s program of 20 or so is working on its sixth.

“This is a celebration—a collaboration between the community, the district and the professionals who came together to support this program,” said Sue Woodyard, who along with her late husband, Jim, helped found the academy in 1999. “We hope you go to school, and come back to build in this valley. There are 150 occupations that touch a house, and we have a real, desperate need for all of them.”

OBITUARIES Jean Marie Parra Levy

THE IDAHO MOUNTAIN EXPRESS

free friday contest ...and the winners are

Donovan Romrell and Erika Ruiz

AN’T C U YO IN IF W ON’T D O Y U LAY! P

YIPPEE KI-YAY! Donovan Romrell and Erika Ruiz have a good reason to jump for joy, as they both won our Free Friday Contest on November 10th good for a generous gift certificate presented by Patricia Giron (center) and the fine folks at International Cowboy Cocina.

Congratulations to our winners and a big thankyou, Patricia, and International Cowboy Cocina for donating the prize.

The fabulous, funny and friend-loving Jean Marie Parra Levy died on Aug. 23, 2017, at Lincoln County Care Center in Shoshone, Idaho. (Jean insisted we write “died,” and not “passed away,”—the latter sounding, we suspect, too imprecise for her). Her daughter Lisa was with her when Jean took her final breath. She was 83.

She is survived by her children, Lisa, Buddy, Lance and Lex, and her grandchildren, Logan, Hunter, Hayden and Ben. Jean is remembered for her intelligence, humor, gregariousness and loyalty.

Jean was born Nov. 16, 1933. in New Orleans, La., to Alfred and Marion Parra.

She grew up with her older sister, Irene May. She attended Catholic church and Sunday school on Canal Street, taking the cable car and going for beignets afterwards. After high school, she attended secretarial/business school, became excellent at shorthand and typing, and worked in offices in the insurance and oil business. She nurtured a deep fondness for the lively French Quarter’s music, food and dancing. Laissez les bon temps rouler!

She married Lynn T. Levy, also from Louisiana, in 1958. The family moved to Los Alamitos, Calif., in 1962.

There, she took the kids to Disneyland and the beach often, learned to golf, bowled in a league and cultivated a vibrant social life. She also relished family vacations to ski resorts and dude ranches in Wyoming, Idaho, Utah and Colorado.

In 1970, the family moved to Ketchum, Idaho. The kids attended Hemingway Elementary School and joined the Sun Valley Ski Team. As a stay-at-home mom, Jean played many roles: involved ski team mom, Little League mom, equestrian mom. She drove her children (and often their friends) to countless races, games and events. Except for a period when she moved back to Southern California for work between 1977 and 1981, Jean would live the remainder of her life in Idaho.

Jean was a diligent, hard worker. In the Wood River Valley, she worked winters for the Sun Valley Ski School as desk customer service specialist, spending summers managing the Warm Spring Tennis Club. Later she co-owned Eagle Gallery in downtown Ketchum, where she developed an interest in art of the American West.

She acquired the Import Gallery, a clothing boutique owned and operated by her dear friend Arlene Exline. Jean naturally put her own style and pizzazz into the popular store, renaming it Flamingo Road. Jean later worked at the Idaho Mountain Express.

She was an amazing cook, integrating her Creole influences—roux, oysters, okra, sassafras—into her memorable gumbos, etoufees and shrimp remoulades.

She read voraciously: stacks of Vanity Fair magazines, nonfiction books and novels piled high on her coffee table and nightstand.

She loved skiing and horseback riding. Some of her fondest memories were of the weekly trail rides with her friends up Adams Gulch, followed by storytelling and laughter in the firelight. Perfection was sitting by the Wood River with her feet in the cooling water. The sublime was après ski and then jazz piano in the Duchin Room.

In her later years, she caught movies at the Magic Lantern Cinema, listened to music at the Sun Valley Jazz Festival and attended the annual pilgrimage that is Wagon Days. She was a many-decades-long fixture at the Pioneer Saloon and at the Casino, particularly on Kentucky Derby Day! When Jean died, we received a great outpouring of love. People wrote beautiful letters and posted recollections. They noted that Jean took time to talk to people and to listen; she was interested in their lives. She loved writing cards to her friends and receiving them. On her 80th birthday she received more than 40 birthday cards. Remarkable. Her numerous and long-lasting friendships remind us of what matters most in life. That she outlived so many friends astounded even her, and contributed to her habit of collecting obituaries.

Near the end of her life, we sat reflecting with her. She had contended with emphysema, COPD and numerous near-death emergencies. We asked her if she was afraid of death. Her response was vintage Jean: “Well,” she rasped with her hoarse but spry voice and a deadpan smirk, “From what I’ve seen, I don’t like the looks of it.”

She waited a beat, and then we all laughed.

A memorial service is being planned in the Wood River Valley in the spring or early summer of 2018. To view photos, read stories and post condolences, go to caringbridge.org/public/jeanlevy.

CAREY’S CHAMPIONS (12-0) STAND TALL WITH EPIC 50-42 VICTORY Big plays on offense and defense lift Panthers to sixth title

By JEFF CORDES

S

Carey 17th-year head coach Lane Kirkland is overjoyed at the achievements of the Panther football team after Saturday’s 50-42 title game victory on the Middleton gridiron.

Express Staff Writer

aturday was sunny and crisp for late November, magnificent in every respect for a high school state championship football game at Middleton High School west of Boise.

The undefeated Carey Panthers and TriValley Titans from Cambridge lived up to the setting and big stage, and engaged in a magnificent State 1A Division eight-man championship game that electrified nearly 2,000 spectators and kept them on the edge of their seats.

Wide open it was, not surprising in the least since the Titans entered the title game averaging 53.2 on offense and Carey ended its memorable campaign averaging 53.5 ppg with a school-record 642 points.

There were 13 touchdowns scored in all, five of them covering 40 or more yards, one after another it seemed—over 300 rushing yards for each team and 1,160 total yards. The defenses had their hands full.

Both teams played hard and well, displaying a kind of sportsmanship under stressful conditions that drew positive comments from an officiating crew who saw them, close up.

In the end, Carey (12-0) emerged triumphant for the school’s sixth state football title with a 50-42 victory over the never-say-die Titans (10-1)—making their first visit to the state finale a memorable one.

Tri-Valley, imposing physically at the scrimmage line, charged out to 6-0 and 12-8 leads. But Carey responded immediately to the early Titan scores with big touchdown plays covering 70 and 78 yards.

Carey junior Porter Mecham, star of the game

with 261 rushing yards and 302 all-purpose yards plus 14 tackles, answered Tri-Valley’s first score with a 70-yard TD run and then started the second half with a season-best 89-yard TD run from scrimmage.

Pass interceptions by Carey’s Hilario Ruiz and Tanner Mecham enabled Carey to escape from the early logjam and build a 30-12 lead. After, the teams exchanged TDs like heavyweights exchanging blows and refusing to buckle.

When Tri-Valley cut its deficit to 36-28 and threatened to score late in the third quarter, a thirddown interception by Carey senior defensive star DJ Parke set the stage for an 11-play, four-and-ahalf minute Panther TD drive featuring two fourthdown conversions.

Another Titans score made it 44-36 with eight minutes left. Tri-Valley’s senior quarterback Chip Mitchell took over the reins and rushed for 120 of his 131 yards after half to join senior Teddy Ertel (163 rushing yards) as the chief Titan stars.

But Carey senior quarterback Houston Hennefer (14-for-22, 216 passing yards and 3 TD plus 30 rushing yards) engineered the game’s longest TD drive—13 plays over 58 yards for six-and-a-half minutes.

Hennefer’s TD plunge, Carey’s final one of its 88 touchdowns for the season, made the score 50-36 with two minutes left and sent the sizable Panther crowd into a frenzy.

Statistically, the teams were even, the only differences being Tri-Valley’s turnovers (3 interceptions, 1 lost fumble) compared to none for Carey, and the fact that the Titans didn’t have a quarterback sack on Hennefer. Carey had three sacks in timely situations.

Panthers, Titans finish up classic 92-point fireworks Continued from Page 21 And despite their turnovers, coach Bob Johnson’s Titans were dangerous to the final second—needing only to recover an onsides kick to try for the game-tying score.

But they didn’t. Porter Larna covered it.

Right afterward, one Panther coach called it “a war.”

The announcer called it “a really good football game.”

Carey seniors Houston Hennefer, Kaden Koudelka and Raymond Peck dumped water over the head of coach Lane Kirkland.

As always since the first week of the season, the triumphant Carey players saluted their fans with the Carey fight song, only this time they held the Idaho High School

Activities Association championship banner and trophy for 2017.

“We had a lot of great senior leadership,” said DJ Parke (14 tackles). “We all trusted each other. And big pops to Houston Hennefer—he was able to find the open player all game.”

Hennefer, who led the Panthers to a clutch 4-for-5 rate of fourth-down conversion success and 5-for-12 on third down, said, “Big guys got open at big times. We’ve been very resilient all year. At half, I just told the team, we’ve got 24 minutes to become state champions.”

Coach Kirkland said, “Every game in the post-season built up to this one. We got stronger and better every week. And we needed it against the No. 2 team in the state.

These kids never let the No. 1 ranking around Week 6 go to their head.

“Our big hearts in our fast bodies took down a very good Titans team. Those big guys did not intimidate us.

So many kids stepped up and made plays.

“We are proud of these boys. They deserve to be the state champions, and we will never forget the things they taught us all this special season.”

Battle from the beginning Never, not once, had Carey trailed in a game this season until Tri-Valley drove 65 yards on eight plays behind its big offensive line and scored on Teddy Ertel’s sevenyard run with five minutes gone. Ertel ran for 42 yards on the drive.

After Porter Mecham’s 16-yard kickoff return, quarterback Hennefer assembled the Panther offense and didn’t mention anything specifically about his team falling behind. Hennefer calmly said, “Okay, now we’ve got the jitters out.”

On second down, Hennefer handed off to Porter Mecham, and Carey’s scoring leader (20 TDs, 138 points) ran the right end and turned upfield for 70 yards. Up until that point, it was Mecham’s longest TD from scrimmage.

Hennefer plunged for the two-point conversion.

Carey led 8-6. Jitters gone.

On Middleton’s field turf, Carey’s onsides kicks didn’t work as well as they did the previous week indoors at Holt Arena against the Deary Mustangs. Tri-Valley got great field position on a 13-yard onsides kick return by Hayden Kuta and the Titans scored again after a 30-yard Ertel run.

Back on top 12-8, the throng of Titans fans cheered loudly when big Collin Kindall boomed the kickoff into the end zone. But the resourceful Panther offense looked at starting from their 20-yard-line as an opportunity. And Hennefer made sure it turned out well.

On third-and-eight, Hennefer rolled left and watched as Tanner Mecham broke free behind the secondary.

He aimed a lead pass in Mecham’s direction, yet senior Kaden Koudelka was coming from right to left in virtually the same spot. Koudelka gathered it in and finished a 78-yard TD. Three plays, 80 yards and a 14-12 Carey lead. And the Panthers never trailed again.

Having dusted off their explosive offense that piled up 23 touchdowns covering 50 yards or better, the Panthers started figuring out the Titans on defense. Led by DJ Parke, they slowed the Tri-Valley attack and, helped by a holding penalty, forced a third-and-long situation after a Larna sack.

Kirkland said, “DJ was Mr. Animal Planet in attack mode on defense all night.”

CAREY CHAMPS Hennefer leads Panthers Continued from previous page On fourth-and-seven at the Carey 31, the Titans went for it—and Hilario Ruiz intercepted the Jayden Mink aerial intended for Ertel at the 19.

Hennefer wasted no time and connected with Tanner Mecham on a 34-yard pass into Titan territory. On fourth-andtwo at the 39, coach Kirkland called time out and talked with his team about Carey’s initial fourth-down conversion.

Why was Carey so successful on fourth downs in the title game? Kirkland said afterward, “The boys took serious ownership about fourth downs. They called most plays themselves.”

This time, Hennefer called Porter Mecham’s number. Mecham charged around right end behind the blocks of Ruiz and Koudelka for a 10-yarder. Six plays later, Ruiz sprinted up the gut for six yards and a 20-12 lead, and Tanner Mecham snagged the conversion toss.

Kirkland said, “Porter was a beast carrying the ball behind Hilario’s blocking, Houston was the general who commanded his troops and made some great passes and elusive runs, Tanner and Kaden kept us alive on lots of drives and caught the ball, and our front line imposed their will against a massive group of Titans.”

Staggered by the turn of events, TriValley faced a third-and-eight after two Ertel runs were stopped by Parke and Tanner Mecham. Defensive ends Carson Simpson and Porter Larna switched positions at the last second and Carey put a big blitz on quarterback Mink.

Tanner Mecham intercepted the Mink pass at the 36 and returned it 20 yards. After a holding call moved Carey back, Hennefer dropped a screen pass to the totally-open Tanner Mecham for a 24-yard TD, and yet another Tanner Mecham conversion pass catch.

Carey’s third unanswered TD made the score 30-12.

Kirkland said, “The defense made some great things happen like they always do, and always at the right time.

Coach Lane Durtschi (defensive coordinator) has been a part of the last four titles. He knows this game well and had their number. We bent a little on defense, but made a beautiful piece of ‘blue’ trophy art out of it in the end.”

Still ahead 30-20 at half, Carey went on defense to open the second half—and three Ertel runs covering 30 yards pushed the sticks down to the Panther 18-yardline. But Ruiz pounced on a fumble to stop the drive, and Porter Mecham took the next Carey handoff for his 89-yard TD that made it 36-20.

The 16-point lead didn’t last.

On the subsequent kickoff, Tri-Valley’s Parker Cornwell picked up the bouncing ball and carried it 53 yards the other direction for the fourth Titans touchdown of the game.

Tri-Valley was on the move late in the third when DJ Parke sacked Mink and Tanner Mecham squashed a screen pass for a short gain. On third-and-10 at the Titans 41, DJ Parke juggled a Mink pass

but intercepted it anyway, putting Carey in business at the 43.

Such a key moment deserved a response from the Panther offense—and Carey delivered it with an 11-play scoring drive. Porter Mecham took a pitch for 10 yards on fourth-and-three, and Hennefer found Koudelka in the back of the end zone on fourth-and-six for an 8-yard TD completion.

Hennefer said about the fourth-down successes, “I just tried to regroup the guys and make sure who had who.”

Now trailing 44-28 with just 10 minutes remaining, Tri-Valley installed Chip Mitchell as quarterback and basically let him run the ball at will. Mitchell raced 48 yards for the touchdown making it 44-34, and then 44-36 with his own conversion run—still 8:27 remaining.

Carey needed a long, time-killing drive and got it after a 34-yard kickoff return by Carson Simpson gave the Panthers decent field position at their 42.

Most of it was Porter Mecham running right, diving ahead and, on a thirdand-nine, catching a 10-yard Hennefer sideline aerial and making sure his feet were in-bounds.

On fourth-and-five with 3:41 left, Hennefer completed an apparent 27-yard TD pass to Tanner Mecham—but an ineligible receiver downfield nullified the score.

That made it fourth-and-10, and Hennefer was on target again, finding Koudelka down-and-out for 16.

Time ticked away, and Porter Mecham bounced off a Titans tackler at the nine and finished a 12-yard gainer at the two.

Hennefer dove home for Carey’s final touchdown and a 50-36 cushion with 2:03 to play.

Modest as always after the trophy presentation, Hennefer joked a little when he said, “My goal all season was to be allconference punt snapper.” But he and his teammates achieved much more, and did it by supporting each other to the end.

Kirkland said, “This has been the best four months of football, ever! We have had so much fun.

“We cannot begin to put into words what we saw happen this year with these kids. It was a quiet transformation that built every week on a goal to be better than years past.

“These kids really saw the importance of being close friends and brothers early on and never looked back.”

PANTHER NOTES—Remarkably, Carey scored points in 43 of the 48 quarters they played….Houston Hennefer finished with 24 TD passes and 23 conversion passes…..

Carey scored on 65% of its conversion attempts, and outscored opponents 112-14 in the third quarters….Five Panthers scored 72 or more points—Porter Mecham, Ruiz, Hennefer, Koudelka and Tanner Mecham.

Carey (6 titles) trails Salmon River (7) in championships since the Idaho High School Activities Association started sanctioning eight-man football back in 1984…….

Carey clinched the fourth unbeaten season in school history to go with unblemished state championship campaigns in 1994 (over Deary at Holt Arena), in 1998 (over Deary at Holt) and 2008 (over Kootenai at the Kibbie Dome). The Panthers are 6-5 in their 11 state championship game appearances, also winning in 2006 over Salmon River at Holt Arena and in 2010 over Garden Valley at Eagle High School.

Galleries seek donations for local charity Après-ski ‘Giving Walk’ raises money for The Hunger Coalition

By ANDY KERSTETTER

Express Staff Writer

kiers and art lovers alike have an opportunity to get in the holiday spirit early this year by bringing food to one of Ketchum’s art galleries during the third annual Sun Valley Gallery Association Après Ski Giving Walk on Friday, Nov. 24, from 4-6 p.m.

The public is invited to donate items in support of The Hunger Coalition, a local nonprofit organization that strives to end hunger in the community by providing food to those in need and by promoting solutions to the underlying causes of hunger through collaboration, education and advocacy.

Visitors can enjoy the exhibitions and refreshments at the gallery association’s eight member galleries while making donations to an organization that provides much-needed services to the community. Galleries will have collections bins where Giving Walk participants can donate canned or boxed nonperishable food.

The annual Giving Walk offers residents and visitors the opportunity to engage with world-class visual art while supporting organizations that make a vital difference to the Wood River Valley during the holidays and throughout the year.

Sun Valley Gallery Association member galleries include Broschofsky Galleries, Frederic Boloix Fine Arts, Friesen Gallery, Gail Severn Gallery, Gilman Contemporary, Kneeland Gallery, the Sun Valley Center for the Arts and Wood River Fine Arts.

The galleries and exhibits they will be presenting are:

BROSCHOFSKY GALLERIES The gallery will feature a group show of gallery artists with an array of subjects and interpretations of the American West from See GALLERY WALK, Page 4

New York City-based agency Social New York will be in the valley on Thursday, Nov. 30, at the Limelight Hotel from 3-8 p.m. The agency scouts for potential models and actors, though its focus in the valley will be for actors to participate in workshops in Los Angeles in January.

Anyone interested can simply show up

at the Limelight on the day of to speak with a representative from the agency.

The agency was tipped off about the wealth of potential talent in the Wood River Valley by Community School senior Nick Smith, whom the agency picked up earlier this year when Smith was in Connecticut playing hockey.

“They originally scouted me for modeling,” he said.

But after he told them about his acting experience in the valley and his wishes to pursue acting, they got him onto that track instead.

Smith was involved in many of Community School’s theater productions, as well

as nexStage Theatre productions working with Keith and Patsy Wygle.

“It was an opportunity that I had to take,” Smith said.

The agency decided to come to the valley for a scouting session partly at Smith’s behest.

“I told them about this place and the people I worked with in acting here,” he said. “This is a really tranquil and relaxing environment to work on what you’re striving toward.”

The National Dog Show will return for its 16th year on Thanksgiving Day, airing at noon on NBC following the Macy’s Thanksgiving Day Parade. This annual presentation provides viewers a chance to watch the most beautiful dogs in the United States, representing 200 breeds, as they vie for the coveted title of Best in Show.

While the event has all the pomp and circumstance expected of a premier AKC-sanctioned national competition, the show also offers home viewers a unique behind-the-scenes look at the country’s top dogs and their handlers. Hosts John O’Hurley, of “Seinfeld” fame, and prominent dog show announcer David Frei provide breed and judging insights during the competition, often with unexpected humor. Cohost Mary Carillo, well known for her television work for the Olympics and major tennis events, interviews handlers backstage, as well as the show’s winners. Also joining the team are professional ice skaters Johhny Weir and Tara Lipinski, who add fashion, flare and humor to the show. With more than 20 million viewers, it is now the most-watched televised dog event in the country.

Presented by Purina and hosted by the Kennel Club of Philadelphia, the National Dog Show is taped by NBC the week before

Thanksgiving in front of a live audience at the Greater Philadelphia Expo Center. Beginning with a slate of more than 2,000 dogs of all breeds and sizes, dogs must first compete within their own breed and win Best in Breed.

Winners of each breed move on to the group judging, which includes seven groups—Sporting, Hound, Working, Terrier, Toy, Non-Sporting and Herding—in which dogs compete for Best in Group. The top dog from each of the seven groups then competes for the title of Best in Show.

The show is one of

the few “benched” dog shows in the country.

Both the National Dog Show live event in Pennsylvania and the NBC televised production on Thanksgiving Day are uniquely connected to Ketchum, as both are produced by longtime valley residents Kathy and Paul Carson, owners of Carson International, in partnership with NBC, Purina and the Kennel Club of Philadelphia.

Since the show began in 2002, Carson International, an event production and television company, has been in charge of overseeing the National Dog Show’s many onsite production details that bring the show together. Planning for the

THIS WEEK’S LOCAL FORECAST

following year’s show begins soon after Thanksgiving Day. The show is one of the few “benched” dog shows in the country. Benching allows on-site spectators to view and interact with the dogs and talk with their handlers to learn more about the breeds. Benching also allows television cameras to capture the behind-the-scenes activity for athome viewers.

“The benching is my favorite part of the show,” said Kathy Carson. “Being able to get up and close and personal with all these beautiful dogs is incredible. Spectators can wander through the benching area and learn more about the dogs, pet them with permission from the handler, watch as they are groomed, and mingle with them before they go into the ring.”

For those people who will be watching the show from afar, on the couch on Thanksgiving Day with our own four-legged canine family members, Carson International and NBC have published online the official magazine program of the National Dog Show, allowing at-home audiences to follow along with the same information as the arena audience in the Philadelphia Expo Center. If you’d like to have an online copy in front of you during the show, go to

SPEND A SATURDAY WITH THE ANGELS

Idaho drag troupe to make Sun Valley debut

By ANDY KERSTETTER Express Staff Writer

Valley residents looking to add some spice to their regular Thanksgiving proceedings might want to check out the Limelight Hotel in Ketchum on Saturday, Nov. 25.

Drag queens will take over the hotel lounge for a day of drag adventures in a two-show engagement hosted by Boise-based drag troupe Charley’s Angels.

Hosted by Spyke Naugahyde and her cast of performers, the Charley’s Angels troupe will be producing a Drag Extravaganza at 6:30 p.m. with doors opening at 6 p.m., followed by a second show at 9 p.m. Doors for the second show open at 8 p.m.

“We tend to be a little naughtier in the second show,” said Casey Winn, aka Spyke Naugahyde, the group’s leader.

Both shows are 21-and-over only, with advance tickets costing $15 and day-of tickets at the door costing $20. Advance tickets are available online at justinbucklesproductions.com.

Charley’s Angels has been performing throughout Idaho for nearly 20 years, with group numbers, comedy, live singing and themed shows being their trademarks. The troupe has been producing shows the first weekend of every month in Pocatello for 19 years, though this is the first time the group has performed in Ketchum.

The troupe will present “This Isn’t Your Grandma’s Bingo” Drag Bingo earlier that day, with doors opening at 11 a.m. and Bingo starting at noon. This event is 21-andover only, with tickets costing $10.

Each ticket sold includes a game pack of five games, with additional game packs available for $2 each at the doors.

“At drag bingo, we have a really good time—you get to be a little more rowdy than with normal bingo,” Winn said.

Charley’s Angels is part of Justin Buckles Productions, based out of Portland, Ore., which owns and operates eight touring shows now seen in 14 states. Tickets also will be available at the doors.

Winn is an Idaho native who founded the group 20 years ago.

“I used to do drag here with a group of friends,” he said. “Even-

Though he’s the only original cast member left, Winn built up the troupe over the years to now include around 15-20 people.

Based in Pocatello, where it performs weekly at Club Charley’s, the troupe has never been to the Wood River Valley, though the members always wanted to come here.

“I feel like you get a better reception in a small town than in the bigger cities,” Winn said.

“Since most small towns don’t usually have that kind of entertainment, we usually get a good reception. I’ve never had any trouble at any of our shows in these small towns.”

GROOVE to the

BEAT Classic punk/ska band to return to Whiskey Jacques’

By ANDY KERSTETTER Express Staff Writer

After a year away, legendary British punk/ska band The English Beat will return to Ketchum on Tuesday, Nov. 28, to perform at Whiskey Jacques’, 251 Main St. in Ketchum, at 10 p.m.

The doors open at 9 p.m. Tickets are $16 in advance or $18 the night of the concert. Advance tickets can be bought online at www.whiskeyjacques.com.

The English Beat—known in the UK simply as The Beat and in Australia as The British Beat—was formed in 1978 in Birmingham, England, fusing sounds of ska, punk, pop, soul and reggae. The original band comprised singer and guitarist Dave Wakeling, singer Ranking Roger, guitarist Andy Cox, bass guitarist David Steele, drummer Everett Morton and “Saxa” on saxophone.

The band was very popular in the 1980s, when it released its albums “I Just Can’t Stop It,” “Wha’ppen?” and “Special Beat Service.”

The original band broke up in 1983, after which Wakeling and Roger formed General Public while Cox and Steele formed Fine Young Cannibals. In 2003, the original members performed a show at the Royal Festival Hall, but efforts to reform the original lineup the next year failed.

Wakeling eventually reformed the band in the U.S., with the other original band members reforming a UK-based version of the group. Wakeling’s band The English Beat currently comprises Wakeling on guitar and vocals, Nucci Cantrell on drums and vocals, Matt Morrish on sax and vocals, Kevin Lum on keyboard and vocals, Minh Quain

The legendary British punk/ska band The English Beat will return to Whiskey Jacques’ in Ketchum on Tuesday, Nov. 28. on keyboard and vocals and Brag Engstrom on bass guitar and vocals.

“We have had English Beat in 2014 and 2015 at Whiskey Jacques’, and they always put on an amazing show every time,” said Ryan Kolquist, manager at Whiskey Jacques’.

“I’ve been working on getting them back for the past couple of years, but the routing didn’t work. It finally did, so we jumped on it.”

The English Beat plays mostly a lineup of songs from the original group as well as some tunes from General Public.

Some of the group’s most successful singles are “Mirror in the Bathroom,” “Too Nice to Talk To,” “Can’t Get Used to Losing You,” “Hands Off, She’s Mine” and “All Out to Get You.” “The English Beat have been around since 1978, and they’re one of the few bands you can have perform in Ket-

chum on any given day or time of year and know people are going to come out and have a blast,” Kolquist said.

For more information about the band, visit englishbeat.net.

If you go What: The English Beat live.

When: Tuesday, Nov. 28, at 10 p.m. Doors open at 9 p.m.

Where: Whiskey Jacques, 251 Main St., Ketchum.

Cost: $16 advance, $18 at the door. Advance tickets available at whiskeyjacques.com/event/the-english-beat-live.

Local Life

Fall season lingers in the valley, as winter looms

Above: The south valley hills were still free of snow on Sunday, Nov. 12 when Shaw Dean (left) and his father Ryan Dean got together for some motocross fun. Ryan Dean said, “We need help to improve the trails. A water system is important for motocross to keep the dust down on the track and to prevent a slick surface. It’s a family fun sport. Both my kids maintain their motorcycles on their own.”

Top Right: Don Felder, 70, former lead guitarist of The Eagles, strung dozens of southern California classic rock hits into nearly two hours of nonstop music at Whiskey Jacques on Saturday, Nov. 11. The private concert, part of an event hosted by Zions Bank, was composed mostly of hits from The Eagles’ heyday, many of which Felder penned or co-wrote.

Above: Enjoying a Scotch Pines dog training session at Ketchum’s Atkinson Park on Friday, Nov. 3 is Jennifer Schwartz’s dog named Scout, a Labordoodle. It was a cold and snowy day, great for the dogs, not so much for their owners.

Bottom Right: Wood River High School’s robotics team prepares for the finals against Caldwell during the VEX Robotics Championship on Friday, Oct. 27 at the Community Campus gym in Hailey. Carson Smith (right) tinkers with the display, flanked to his right by teammates Cameron Maxwell and Dawson Hicks.

DONKEYS ON DISPLAY FOR JAM-PACKED BASKETBALL GAMES

Express photo by Willy Cook

Hundreds of spectators visited Wood River High School gym Nov. 8 to support a Donkey Basketball fundraiser for the Senior Bash, a graduation-night party aimed at keeping senior students safe and sober. Four teams competed, with the local law enforcement/WRHS seniors team defeating the WRHS freshman team by one basket in overtime. The other two teams were the WRHS staff team and a team comprised of mixed grades of WRHS students. About $2,000 was raised, after expenses for the event. Donkeys Sports Inc. from central Washington brought nine donkeys to Hailey. Here, the donkeys make sure the boys have to work hard to retrieve the balls.

Displays at banks honor the service of veterans

Express photo by Willy Cook

With the help of John O’Connor from the Ketchum American Legion, Mountain West Bank Ketchum manager Sooz Alfs (left) has worked to put displays together each November for the past 10 years to help observe Veterans Day. This year, the Ketchum and Hailey bank branches featured displays were stocked with short-term donations from local vets and their families to honor military personnel dating back to the 1920s. Here, Ketchum resident Jeff Nelson (right) holds an aerial camera the size of a mailbox that belonged to his father Capt. Orvis Marcus Nelson, who joined the Army in 1928. The captain’s uniform (left) was also displayed.
