Eureka Springs Community Center hosts Highlander Basketball Camp May 4-5 By Samantha Jones Citizen.Editor.Eureka@gmail.com
Former Eureka Springs Highlander basketball players are returning to the old high school gym as coaches for the first annual Highlander Basketball Camp May 4-5. Nick Bower and Ryan Sanchez will be coaching Carroll County students at the Eureka Springs Community Center during the two-day camp, starting at 1 p.m. Saturday, May 4, and noon Sunday, May 4. The camp is for students between fifth and
12th grade and features a 3-on-3 basketball tournament Sunday. Bower said there will be two skill sessions on Saturday, split between grades 5-8 and 9-12. “The whole camp is co-ed, and on the first day, we’ll work with the kids in groups,” Bower said. “We’re going to have the 3-on-3 tourney on Sunday. There will be lunch at noon and then at 1 p.m., we’ll start the festivities.” Bower continued, “We’ll do a warm-up and then there will be rounds of the 3-on3 tourney. Hopefully, we’ll have enough
kids to make it a full, fun day. We’ll have the free throw competition, a three-point skills test, and there will be winners crowned at both the junior high and senior high level.” Sanchez said he’s excited about the camp, because there hasn’t been a camp for all the students in Carroll County quite like this before. “Usually the schools have their own little camp. We want to change that,” Sanchez said, “and grow it a little more. Hopefully, down the line it’ll attract kids
from schools all around. I think it’s a good steppingstone for outreach for the community center.” “It’s not Highlanders only,” Bower said. “Anyone in those age groups is welcome. We’re doing it for the betterment of all basketball players.” Bower and Sanchez played basketball together at the old high school, years before the Eureka Springs Community Center Foundation purchased it. They are both coaches today; Bower is the head See Basketball, page 11

Community center to host grand opening of new fitness area May 6
All Eurekans and their families are invited to attend the Eureka Springs Community Center's grand opening of the fitness areas from 4 p.m. to 6 p.m. Monday, May 6. There will be demonstrations, refreshments, a ribbon cutting and tours of the newly redesigned exercise space. The range of equipment and machines will make it easy to find the perfect fit for your personal style. Whatever your interests or requirements, the community center will have something to make your muscles strong. There are six weight
machines, treadmills, ellipticals, steppers, free weights, weight benches, dumbbells and bikes. The fitness room is made possible through grants from the Windgate Charitable Foundation, the Sunderland Foundation and the Ray and Christine Sturgis Foundation. Local resident Jom Statton helped the community center locate the proper machines and facilitate their purchase, and Shile McCarty contributed the sale price of his restored 1930 Ford Model A truck to make it a true fitness area.
Community center announces greenhouse is complete
The Eureka Springs Community Center continues to grow its offerings to the community, this time with a completed greenhouse onsite. In 2017, the community center received a grant for $25,000 from the AT&T Foundation to create a community greenhouse and education center on their site. While plans were being made for the greenhouse construction, the community center's board of directors initiated some of the educational aspects specified in the grant by working with the University of Arkansas Agricultural Division, the Cooperative Extension Center, the Southern Sustainable Research Education Group and the local high school in hosting workshops and seminars on vegetable production and professional growing.
These events took place at the community center and were very well-attended. Now, the actual greenhouse has been completed and its operation and management will be handled through another collaboration. The community center has joined forces with the Eureka Springs Parks and Recreation Commission to operate and manage the greenhouse. The parks commission will use 50 percent of the space for cultivating plants for public spaces and will partner with local organizations for use of the other 50 percent. In exchange, they will manage the greenhouse, produce educational programs and host plant sales to help fund the greenhouse's overhead expenses. The educational classes will continue as interest grows in specific areas of horticulture.

Lights, camera, interaction! Hollywood.Con filmmakers tell ESHS students all about the movie industry By Samantha Jones Citizen.Editor.Eureka@gmail.com
Mika Boorem and her father, Ben, are in the business of telling stories, and they recently shared their perspective on the movie industry with Eureka Springs High School film students. Mika said she and her father have been meeting with students throughout the region in the weeks leading up to the premiere of her directorial debut film Hollywood.Con. The film will be shown for the first time at 8 p.m. Saturday, May 4, at the Auditorium in downtown Eureka Springs. They have visited many schools to talk about filmmaking, Mika said, and the students at Eureka Springs are some of the best they’ve met. “We had a fantastic time going in and visiting with the kids,” Mika said. “We told them particularly about the project we just finished. We showed them different clips from that film and talked about the experience we had making that.” “It really was a wonderful experience,” Ben said. “The kids were great. They were really excited to share their projects with us.” Juniors Hunter Chapman and Sam Gay said they loved talking with the Boorems, saying they learned more about the technical aspects of filmmaking. It was especially helpful for Chapman, because he’s been working on editing the audio for a film of his own. “We talked one-on-one about how I could fix the audio and smaller things like that,” Chapman said. For his film, Chapman said, he interviewed bands at the Auditorium last month. He thanked Mika and Ben for taking their time to visit with his class. “They helped me synchronize everything,” Chapman said. Mika said she was impressed by the projects going on at Eureka Springs High School. “The kids are working on interesting stuff. A lot of the things they’re working on are very much out of the box, and they carry their personality with them,” Mika

Filmmakers Mika Boorem and Ben Boorem visit with Eureka Springs High School film students to talk about their experience in the movie industry. The Boorems will show the premiere of their independent film Hollywood.Con at 8 p.m. Saturday, May 4, at the Auditorium at 36 S. Main in Eureka Springs.
said. “It’s being embraced for them to really push the limits and go for it, which is so special.” Gay said he enjoyed hearing more about the process behind independent filmmaking. “There are difficulties that come along with it, but there’s also creative freedom,” Gay said. “They showed us perspective. They helped us see what can be if you continue down that road and work hard. The passion can still be there. It doesn’t have to leave.” Freshman Holly Parker recalled speaking with Mika one-on-one about several different topics, including lighting, sound, camera angles and being on camera. “We also discussed how there’s a major difference between being on camera acting and being on stage,” Parker said. It’s rare for students in rural areas to meet people like Mika and Ben, Parker said. “They’re from California. People around here really don’t get to know the experience from a person who’s actually doing that, who succeeded in it,” Parker said. “It’s really important for them to share their perspective and accomplishments, so they can inspire other people to go after such a thing.” Teacher Adam Louderback thanked the Boorems for bringing their expertise to town and being so open with his students.
“The students got to show their work and get some real, honest feedback that didn’t come from me,” Louderback said. “It’s better hearing from people working in the industry.” Gay said he could tell Mika and Ben were proud of their film. “They had that sense of giddy wonder for what they created,” Gay said. That’s definitely true, Mika said. She has been working as an actress since she was a child, saying she’s excited to see the response to Hollywood.Con. The film is an old-school adventure comedy, Mika said, where the actors play against their typecast roles. The reason she decided to premiere the film in Eureka Springs, Mika said, is because she has family ties to Arkansas. “My dad’s originally from Marshall. We have a lot of family in the area,” Mika said. “We wanted to do something around here, but we weren’t quite sure what the best spot would be.” They discovered the Auditorium, reached out to CAPC interim director Rick Bright and the rest is history. While they’re in Eureka Springs, Mika said, they’re embracing everything about the local art scene. “We’re going to be in the ArtRageous Parade. That will be really fun,” Mika said. “It’s a cool community. You guys have so See Hollywood, page 11

CAPC partners with chamber on Summer Fun co-op for the digital marketing, Henke said, and the chamber would work with business partners to raise $5,000 to pay social media influencers to promote Eureka Springs. Rick Bright, interim director of the CAPC, said it wouldn’t be a problem to find the money in the commission’s budget. “Last year, we budgeted $20,000 for special events ads,” Bright said. “Well, that’s already been brought through the regular print budget, so we actually have the money we can move from special ads.” Commissioner Susan Harman asked Henke how soon he’d like to get the cam-

paign going, and Henke said he wants to kick it off as soon as possible. “The whole point of this is summer vacations, so the clock’s ticking,” Henke said. “You could do it at the end of June, but our real value of doing it is decreasing as we go further into the season.” Henke said the campaign would run for four weeks in May, with influencers coming to town to write blogs during that time. “They’d turn that into usable social media, and it still hits early in the summer,” Henke said. “As far as the digital marketing goes, obviously it’ll just be a matter of days to get that launched. There’s two parts to this campaign.” He continued, “One’s the $10,000 digital. That’s pretty easy to execute, because we already have players in digital marketing. The other is the $5,000 influencer part. “ Influencers are people with large social media followings, Henke said, who write about their experiences from a personal standpoint. Commission chairwoman Carol Wright said she looked up how much influencers charge, and it’s about $2,000 per social media post. “An influencer will have an excessive amount of reach,” Henke said.

GSHS asks public to stop dumping trash at thrift stores By Samantha Jones
Citizen.Editor.Eureka@gmail.com
If you’re thinking of dumping your trash at one of Good Shepherd Humane Society’s thrift stores, think again. Thrift store manager Janet Chupp reported April 24 that dumping has become a major problem for the stores, because Good Shepherd has to pay for the city dump to take the items the stores can’t use. It becomes an even bigger problem, Chupp said, when people dump only trash at the store. “At the Berryville store the day before the rabies clinic, somebody pulled up with a truck and trailer full of trash,” Chupp said. “It’s a major, major problem.” The Berryville store has seen improvements since Good Shepherd’s last meeting, Chupp said. She said the sewer system has been totally repaired. “The plumbing there has been interesting. Every time we think we have
the sewer fixed, it backs up again,” Chupp said. “So they ran a whole new line of septic. It’s all fixed, and it’s up and running.” The last step toward that repair, Chupp said, is tearing out the bathroom. “It will save us $200 if we tear it out and cap it ourselves,” she said. The Berryville store still needs volunteers, Chupp said, especially when it comes to cleaning out the donation shed. Chupp said she’s worked with volunteers to clear out the pricing room at the store and now they need to tackle the shed, which is full of donated items. “It’s just something that’s got to happen. If that means having 20 people there on Monday, I’ve got to do that,” Chupp said. “We have to clean out the shed for the pricing room to not get overwhelmed again.” Shelter manager Sandra Mittler presented the shelter report for March, saying seven dogs, one puppy, five cats and one kitten were adopted out. She said the shelter took in four dogs,
one cat, one kitten and one puppy, returned two dogs to their owners and had one cat and three dogs returned to the shelter. The shelter will have a yard sale in May, Mittler said, to unload excess pet supplies like crates and carriers. She said a couple shelter dogs have been getting out in the community over the past month, making appearances at the Arkansas State Chili Championship and Cornerstone Bank. “The puppies have been out and about in town, and they’re enjoying it,” Mittler said. Treasurer Mark Minton presented the financial report for March and said Good Shepherd is reflecting a profit of $17,224 compared to a budgeted loss of $1,020. “That’s because of timing on the Diamonds and Denim Ball,” Minton said. The board’s next regular meeting is scheduled for 7 p.m. Tuesday, May 21, at Best Western Inn of the Ozarks Convention Center.

To drink or not to drink? Is drinking alcohol good for you? Recommendations from the medical community include drinking two glasses of red wine Jim Fain per day for men and one each day for women. Dry red wine is the drink of choice due to the natural content of resveratrol, other plant nutrients and low sugar. Other choices of alcohol are less clear in their benefit and if you mix with sugary juices the benefit drops away altogether. Is red wine good for the heart? The natural resveratrol is a strong antioxidant and can powerfully benefit the cardiovascular system. You can get resveratrol in supplements with one capsule containing more than you’d find in a bottle (or multiple bottles) of wine. So we know that part is beneficial and true but what about the alcohol itself? Clearly, if there is difficulty moderating your drink or if there is liver trouble then the answer is no, alcohol is not good for you, your family or the community. The question of benefit becomes less clear as you find out more about what it does in the body. Surprisingly, there is a connection between cholesterol levels and alcohol in many people. I had a blood test done called a vertical auto profile (VAP) that looks at the makeup of cholesterol. My regular cholesterol test was very good matching all of the criteria doctors use for heart health. But the regular cholesterol test isn’t the best measure for those on statin drugs like Lipitor or for those who worry about heart attack. Turns out even with an excellent regular cholesterol test, the VAP test showed I was at high risk of atherosclerosis (hardening of the arteries) that can cause heart attack. Turns out the type of cholesterol (triglycerides) I naturally produce are the culprits. I wouldn’t have known this without having done the VAP blood test which is easy to get done and not expensive. Where does alcohol come into play? Alcohol quickly produces large amounts of triglycerides. My body naturally produces the very bad type as determined by the VAP. So even two glasses of red wine each day is not good for me. I’ve increased my Red Yeast Rice (lowers cholesterol), policosanol and keep track of my steps on a FitBit. Alcohol is only for special occasions like tastings and relaxation now in my life. I get my resveratrol through supplements. I want to be around as long as I can to enjoy this beautiful part of the world with my family and friends. I hope you do, too.

Rotary Student of the Month
Carroll County Community Foundation’s Youth Advisory Council (YAC) will hold its 2019 Grant Awards and Volunteer of the Year Award Ceremony from 5:30 to 7 p.m. Friday, May 3 at the Carroll Electric Community Building in Berryville. Local nonprofits who have been selected to receive a YAC Giving Tree Grant will be on hand to receive funds and explain their programs that support youth and children in Carroll County. Everyone is invited to attend. This year the local YAC group created the Carroll County Volunteer of the Year award. Throughout the year, YAC students learn about the needs of the county and the nonprofits that are addressing these issues. During nonprofit site visits, community service events, and meetings with local nonprofit leadership, students have realized the worth of the volunteer. A request for nominations was sent out in March and 20 deserving local volunteers have been nominated. Each of the nominees and their families have been invited and the Volunteer of the Year will be announced at this event. The local Youth Advisory Council is made up of students, grades 9 through 12, from all three public schools as well as private and homeschool students in Car-
roll County. Students apply to be a member of this program that encourages teens to be active in their communities through grant-making, endowment-building, and community service. Students who are selected through an application process and meet once a month with their YAC adviser, Donna Hill, from September to April. “Our YAC students have taken the lead in creating this new Volunteer recognition program,” said Janell Robertson, executive director of the Carroll County Community Foundation. “Their hope is that this program will celebrate the good work being done by so many, and encourage others to volunteer their time and talents. ” Carroll County Community Foundation is the local affiliate of the Arkansas Community Foundation that supports smart giving to improve communities. The Community Foundation offers tools to help Arkansans protect, grow and direct their charitable dollars as they learn more about community needs. By making grants and sharing knowledge, the Community Foundation supports charitable programs that work for Arkansas and partners to create new initiatives that address the gaps. Contributions to the Community Foundation, its funds and any of its 28 affiliates, are fully tax deductible.
Ana Tapia, daughter of Maria Carmen Martinez and Juan Tapia, is the Eureka Springs Rotary Student of the Month for March 2019. Tapia, a senior at Eureka Springs High School, maintains a 3.38 GPA and has received numerous awards while attending the school, including Most Outstanding Student for Travel/Tourism Destinations in 2016 and Most Outstanding Student for Algebra I in 2015. She enjoys playing soccer and running and has served as captain of the soccer team. After graduation, Tapia is interested in becoming part of the business community.

for the businesses to be featured so long as they’re paying for the ad. “This is about the destination. At the bottom, it says, ‘For all attractions and lodging click here,’ “ Henke said, “which is just going to go over to EurekaSprings.org. Everybody’s included in that.” Harman asked how the chamber will collect information from the campaign to continue promoting Eureka Springs in the future. “There’s always an opportunity for someone to give you contact information, regardless of how it’s worded,” Harman said. There will be a contest for lodging, Henke said, and those who sign up will
be required to use their email addresses. Wright said they’d find a way to use the information to their advantage. “We’ll figure out some way of getting that information in the time constraints we have,” Wright said. Commissioner Terry McClung asked if it was too late to start the campaign, and Henke said it isn’t. “I think if we don’t get started today, we’re starting too late,” Henke said. Commissioner James DeVito moved to accept the proposal for the Summer of Fun campaign, and the commission agreed to do so. The commission’s next regular meeting is scheduled for 6 p.m. Wednesday, May 8, at The Auditorium.

Henke said he’d like to use an existing promotional video and showed a clip from the commission’s Made in Eureka Springs campaign from last year. “We want to show something that show us as a planned vacation destination,” Henke said. “The whole point of that topic isn’t to point to any specific entity. It’s to paint the whole town as a vacation destination. “ The businesses that partner with the campaign, Henke said, would have their information listed on the landing page beneath the video.

ninth-grade coach at Bentonville High School, and Sanchez just completed his first year coaching the Lady Highlanders at Eureka Springs High School, who won a conference championship and advanced to the state tournament for the first time in several years. “We have always been close friends through the game of basketball. We play together every Sunday,” Sanchez said. “It’s an honor to do this with Nick –– I’m learning from him, and I look forward to getting more coaching experience.” Sanchez said he’s learned so much about coaching by watching other coaches in action. “You look at other people’s game and try to mimic them, then apply it to your own team,” Sanchez said. “It’s the same thing with coaching. This camp is an opportunity for not only the kids of Eureka but for me to see what Nick brings in.” Bower remembered his time as a Highlander, saying he was one of the most awarded players to ever be on the team. “My junior year was our first time to be in the state tourney for 20 years,” Bower said. “We were the first-ever team to win a game in the state tourney, and I believe that is still the case. That was a big deal for me.” He’s looking forward to returning to the old high school gym, Bower said, and working with the community center. “This is a wonderful opportunity for the community and the community center,” Bower said. “It’s something I wish we had when Ryan and I were young –– something where kids can get together and spend time together in a place that’s outside of school within the community.” He continued, “We’ll probably get a lot

better just by being part of it and learning from one another. We have completely different perspectives on the game of basketball. It’s always good as a human to grow. It’s going to be very fun.” When it comes to money, Bower said, the camp is a steal. It costs $5 per student and is free for community center members. “It’s very affordable, and Ryan and I have an extensive knowledge of the game,” Bower said. “We’ll have the ability to differentiate our teaching of the game to all sorts of different skill levels, so we won’t only focus on the kids that are ahead. We’re going to make everybody better. Nobody will fall through the cracks.” Sanchez agreed, saying it would cost $60 for one skill session of this caliber in other places. “This is going to be three or four hours per individual, and you only pay $5 for both days,” Sanchez said. “Why not spend something on your kids to learn about the game of basketball? Whether or not they become a basketball player, this is an opportunity for them.” Jack Moyer, who sits on the community center’s board of directors, said the camp is expected to re-engage local children at the old high school gym while connecting them to alumni who have fond memories of the space. “The community center expects to play a large role in engaging the younger ages to benefits enjoyed through athletics,” Moyer said. “We welcome participants and parents alike to join us for lunch on Sunday prior to the 3-on-3 tournament.” Sanchez encouraged parents to reserve a spot for their child in the camp, saying it’s important to do that before the event happens. To reserve your spot, go to www.ReserveEureka.com/Attractions/HighlanderCamp. The movie starts at 8 p.m., but the doors open at 7 p.m. Mika encouraged everyone to come early to get their photo on the red carpet and meet some of the people behind the film.

Little finishes 3rd in shot put at state meet
Eureka Springs junior Shelby Little took third place in the girls shot put at the Class 2A state track and field championships Tuesday at England High School. Little’s shot put of 33 feet, 2.5 inches was 2.5 inches ahead of the fourth-place finisher.
Little also competed in the 100- and 200-meter dashes, finishing fifth in both. Lady Highlanders freshman Juna Williams was 17th in the high jump. Eureka Springs sophomore Isaac Wyatt and freshman Damien Asbury also competed at the state meet.
Highlanders win home finale; both teams head to state tournament
Senior Kayden Eckman scored four goals Monday as the Eureka Springs Highlanders defeated Bergman 7-0 in the Highlanders’ final home game of the season. Senior Griffin Taylor and sophomores Donte Kruse and Jose Rangel added one goal apiece for Eureka Springs (7-6, 6-4 3A West). Eckman, Rangel and freshman
Eason Nystrom each had an assist. Sophomore goaltender Preston Hyatt made six saves as the Highlanders recorded the shutout. Both the boys and girls soccer teams have qualified for the Class 3A State Tournament, which begins Thursday, May 9, in Harrison.
