Purpose: To acquaint the class with the history and heritage of Coeur d’Alene.

Coeur d’Alene Tribe

Peter Mahone presented on the Coeur d’Alene Tribe. Starting with how the tribe refers to themselves Schitsu’umsh, meaning “those who were found here” in their native language. We learned of the cunning of the coyote against the Gobbler Monster and the Rock Monster resulting in the creation of the CDA Tribe and the blue color of Coeur d’Alene Lake. Key areas of discussion included Pre-Colonial Life, Importance of the Lake and Waterways, Farming, Establishment of the Reservation, Tribal Leadership, Conservation, and Challenges. The tribe originally had 400 members at the time of its establishment. The Coeur d’Alene Tribe now has 2400 members and employs over 1000

Setting the Stage continued . . .

March 28, 2019 Community Panel Sandy Emerson, Denny Davis, and Norm Gissel shared some experiences of Coeur d’Alene. While each has had individual roles in the community ranging from chamber president, elected official, and attorneys, the stories blend and are supported by the others to help create the narrative of our community.

Work to foster connections in our circles and become involved to address local challenges so that we may continue the story.

Highlights from each speaker are included below.

Sandy Emerson

Sandy grew up in Coeur d’Alene, with his mom being Miss Rathdrum and his dad, a floatplane pilot. As a kid, he would play in Lake Coeur d’Alene and be covered in grease and grime from the business and industry that was right on the lake. His father, Tom Emerson, wrote three books about floatplane culture and history. Books are available at the museum if people would like to read them. Coeur d’Alene had the first municipally owned airport. In the 60s, we were on the national circuit for hydroplane races causing large fluxes in the population that the city could not handle.

When Emerson became the chamber president in 1980, things were grim. The Chamber was struggling financially,

6

there were high vacancy rates, natural resource industries were decreasing, youth were leaving the area, and the business community was stagnant. Upbeat Breakfast was started as a way of instilling hope. The Chamber lobbied for Urban Renewal Districts (URD) in 1986 to allow for tax increment financing to help revitalize the area.

Robert Singletary

Robert gave us a glimpse into the early history of Coeur d’Alene with a walking tour around the Fort Sherman Grounds and images of early buildings. Mr. Singletary reminds us that the future is made up of the past. To understand and appreciate where we are, we must know where we have been. Some of the highlights of Coeur d’Alene’s history are listed below.

Denny Davis

Since the 1980s, several initiatives were established that helped the community become what it is today. The Coeur d’Alene Resort was built (additional height was allowed by increased greenspace), Jobs Plus was started, Urban Renewal Districts were established, allowing increased tax revenue for programs like the Kroc Center and McEuen Park. Many of these decisions were quite controversial at the time but have ultimately improved the quality of life.

•

The city has its origins because of the battle of Little Bighorn. General Sherman saw a need for a military fort in the area and developed one at the NIC Campus.

•

Three buildings remain of the original Fort Sherman, the Officers Quarters, the Chapel, and the Powder Room, which the Leadership Class was able to tour.

•

The first steamboat on Lake Coeur d’Alene was the Amelia Wheaton used for hauling hay and potatoes for the military and also hauled passengers to the mines illegally, and by 1890 had become a tourist activity.

•

In 1893, the railroad went around town and caused the population to decrease. The population was 507. By 1900, the city experienced a boom from that time. Coeur d’Alene was voted the county seat in 1908 and had a population of over 8,000 by 1910.

•

In 1915, they had dredged the lake to expand the town; and after filling in the lake, they dredged it again in the 30s and 40s.

This is a very condensed history, but there is a presentation by the museum and library every month where we can learn more about the history of the area.

Norm Gissel

The most important thing in a case is the narrative Coeur d’Alene has a rich heritage build on connections. Norm has always advocated for equality and helped to integrate the fraternity at the University of Idaho. In 1998 Norm sued Nazis in North Idaho. The Aryan Nations had a compound north of town, a car was driving by, and guards from the compound shot at the vehicle and pulled the passengers out and beat them with the butts of the rifles and kicked them in a ditch.

Norm represented the family and, in 2000, was awarded a judgment for $6.3 million in a 12-0 decision. The unanimous decision showed strong support against the Aryan Nations and helped to drive the group out of the area.

Mr. Singletary reminds us that the future is made up of the past...

Health Care Day April 25, 2019

Session Planners: Kelley Griffith (Chair) Mark Wild Eric Titus Karen Hubbard Mark Wilson

Kootenai Health Insurance Northwest Numerica North Idaho College The Children’s Village

Speakers: Jeremy Evans Mike Baker Kelsey Moen Captain John Kempf Una Alderman Sarah McCracken Rick Rasmussen

Kootenai Health Heritage Health Benefits Exchange Northwest Idaho State Police North Idaho Advanced Care Hospital Hospice of North Idaho Northwest Specialty Hospital

Jessica Bonar Lisa Bunker Don Robinson

Dr. Ryan Bones

Advanced Benefits Kootenai Health North Idaho Crisis Center, Kootenai Health Beyond Bones Chiropractic

Purpose: To educate the Leadership Class about the available healthcare resources and to make a personal commitment to health and wellness.

Jeremy expressed the history of Kootenai Health from its origins at the Fort Sherman Hospital in 1880-1901 to the hospital’s current relocation in the 1960s. He even described how they arrived at its size and impact of today. Currently, the hospital has 330 beds with 14,000 patient admissions per year - 300,000 outpatient visits.

This generates $551M in revenues and supports 3,300 employees, of which 400 are physicians. Kootenai Health is the 3rd largest hospital in Idaho and the busiest E.R. department in Idaho. In addition, the Leadership Class toured the hospital in 5 separate groups to see the blood lab, the Heli-pad, imaging services, sterilization room, and the pharmacy.

Structure

The community essentially owns the hospital, which is structured as a district hospital and is governed by a local board of directors - not corporate-owned like other regional hospitals. Kootenai Clinic, a division of Kootenai Health, offers 220 providers with 20 specialties. They offer an integrated network—the Kootenai Care Network, which has 482 providers, of which 2/3 are independent practitioners looking to benefit from the economies of scale that Kootenai Health can provide and 1/3 belong to Kootenai Clinic.

The hospital has struggled as recently as 2008 and has since revamped its employee engagement and focus. Its revenue has grown by 95% since 2011 and has added 1,500 employees during that time. Kootenai Health is the only Mayoaffiliated hospital in the Northwest and allows them to tap into the best practices and resources of the Mayo Clinic.

To improve patient housing, the hospital opened the Ronald McDonald House Charities and the Walden House later in 2019.

Insurance

Jaime Arnold, Kelsey Moen, and Jessica Bonar explained health insurance benefits, concepts, and challenges. They

8

stressed getting to know what your insurance coverage benefits are, knowing who is in your network, and taking advantage of your preventative services—FREE STUFF! They also informed us of the Cost Estimator tool online to price medical services/procedures in our community.

Opioid Panel

Don Robinson spoke on the background of the North Idaho Crisis Center and how they serve the local community for anyone who is suicidal or suffering from severe mental illness and needs immediate attention. They are one of six centers in the state.

They receive their funding from the state and offer short-term help only; no person can stay longer than 24 hours. They try to provide safety to those who come in, and from there, refer them to other medical/psychiatric services if needed. Don mentions

...They serve the local community... that the suicide rate in North Idaho is twice the national average.

Lisa Bunker, who is the Chemical Dependency Manager at Kootenai Health, spoke about how they treat those suffering from substance abuse. Psychiatrists oversee the center, and patients are paired with a therapist. They attempt to provide patients with new coping skills for managing stress and not turning back to substance abuse. Captain Kempf, with Idaho State Patrol, discussed the challenges facing the community and law enforcement with the growing opioid epidemic. Fentanyl use has been exploding over the country and now is showing up locally.

Much of the drug trafficking passes through our community along I-90 going west and east. These drugs and others are flooding in the country from Mexico, and the cartels are getting very creative in smuggling them into the U.S.

Northwest Specialty Hospital

The CEO of Northwest Specialty Hospital Rick Rasmussen talked about the hospital and its role in the community. Northwest Specialty Hospital is a physician-owned for-profit hospital that focusses on elective surgeries with patients who are stable and have predictable outcomes. Rick grew up in the community and serves on numerous boards and looks to hire locally to continue to give back. Rick’s background is in finance and believes in increased transparency in healthcare costs and surrounding oneself with the right people to make informed decisions.

Northwest Specialty Hospital opened in February 2002, had 22 physician owners and 32 inpatient beds. It receives 60,000 patient visits a year and has multiple surgical services (Bariatrics, ENT, Hand, Neurosurgery & Spine, Ortho, Plastic, Urology). It expanded in 2010, which was an essential expansion because it was right before the passage of the Affordable Care Act that made it illegal for physicians to own hospitals. The hospital was grandfathered in and capped at the newly expanded number of beds. Often, they have the lowest cost for MRIs in the area, ranging from $400-$500, causing significant growth in the imaging over the past several years. From back to back years, they have received a CMS 5-Star Ratings, which less than 5% of hospitals receive.

that works for them. However, it is essential to try and shift care from E.R. visits to lower the cost services when applicable.

There are 13 locations in the community, each serving 30,000 patients a year. Ten percent of funding is by a federal grant from the government; the rest is generated from operations.

They partner with the Kroc Center and utilize their services to help improve health.

Heritage Health

Mike Baker, CEO of Heritage Health, spoke to the Leadership Class about the importance of preventative measures and resources to live healthily. The example he gave was that a patient who goes from pre-diabetic to diabetic on average loses five years of life expectancy, but lifestyle can often prevent that change. His goal in healthcare is to create a climate where hospitals are no longer needed. Heritage Health serves those who may not have access to healthcare or may struggle financially; they work with each patient to find a plan

Health Care Day...continued April 25, 2019

North Idaho Advanced Care Hospital/ Rehab Hospital of the Northwest

Una Alderman, Erik Kenner, and Ashley Bertagnol presented at North Idaho Advanced Care Hospital and the Rehab Hospital of the Northwest. These are two separate facilities. They focus on patients who need long-term medical care.

NIACH

Located in Post Falls since 2006, patients need a greater level of care, post-acute health care, long-term acute care hospital (LTAC).

Specialize in respiratory failure and weaning patients off oxygen.

Joint Commission recognized them as the top respiratory provider and have only a 4% re-admission rate.

Rehabilitation Hospital of the Northwest

This 30-bed inpatient rehab hospital treated its first patient in 2013. To be eligible, patients need to be medically stable, less acute and benefit from 3 hours of rehab a day. Many patients are from more rural communities.

Hospice of North Idaho

Sarah McCracken, the Director of Finance at Hospice of North Idaho, spoke to the Leadership Class on the hospice facility and the resources available for the community. Hospice provides services for those that have a life expectancy of fewer than six months. The Leadership Class also toured the new facility for Hospice and the Schneidmiller Building. The hospice building has community space that can accommodate as many as 300 people, and the Schneidmiller House provides an atmosphere that resembles a home. They are the only hospice house in the state that is accredited as a hospital. It is the community’s only non-profit hospice and has been in the community since 1981. Services include hospice, inpatient care, bereavement counseling, and the only place in town that has kids bereavement counseling. It offers 120 community sessions on various topics a year. There are 120 employees (112 nurses ) with an 85% occupancy at all times.

Avondale Dental

Kory Wilson DDS at Avondale Dental presented to the Leadership Class on changes in dentistry in recent years.

Avondale Dental has seen substantial growth in recent years but always wants to preserve the small practice feel, which is important for patient satisfaction. To improve the patient experience, he started the first dental insurance company ever in Idaho, and they currently have over 1,000 members.

One of the biggest challenges facing the dental industry is the large dental corporations as they try to compete with their resources; more and more technology is allowing services to be directed to the consumer at a lower cost. The best example of this is that companies like Smile Direct, allowing customers to mail-order braces. However, these services lack the personal engagement and expertise that a local dentist can provide.

Kory reminded the Leadership Class of the importance of a smile and to always smile to advance their careers.

10

Well-Being Panel

To get a full picture of healthcare in the community, the Leadership Class has listened to a panel on more alternative medical practices. One of the main challenges each of the panelists expressed was the nexus between insurance and their work and often moving away from insurance to better serve their clients rather than answering to the will of insurance providers.

The essential thing to remember is that the body is meant to be healthy, and these are all tools to facilitate well-being.

Pediatrics

Lakeside Pediatrics was started in 2002 by Dr. Prince, beginning with only two employees, and has since grown. Now, it has 7 Physicians and 3 Nurse Practitioners. Dr. Prince is passionate about protecting kids serving as a vaccination advocate and being one of 2 people in North Idaho who works with sexual abuse victims. North Idaho has a low vaccination rate for children, and she stressed the need for protection as highlighted by the recent measles outbreak across the U.S. Dr. Prince encouraged the Leadership Class to become involved and knowledgeable about the science behind vaccines to act as an advocate in the community.

Ryan Bones, Chiropractor at Beyond Bones Opened Beyond Bones 3 years ago, helps people enhance neurological function through specific adjustments, very technological approach to Chiropractic and has the most technologically advanced office in North Idaho.

Carly Williams, founder of Carly’s Compass Provides clinical consultations on nutrition and an overall better lifestyle, develops specific plans tailored to each individual, works a lot with business professionals who want accountability, not just one visit.

Dr. Pamela Langenderfer, owner of Lakeside Holistic Health She has been in practice for 17 years and has offices in Coeur d’Alene and Liberty Lake. Dr. Langenderfer practices Naturopathic Medicine, functional medicine, and is an acupuncturist; the focus is on hormone imbalance in women can range from thyroid issues or menopause.

Session Planners: Nicole Hammons Caitlin Kling Melissa Newcomer Todd Trengove Jessica Adams

Kootenai County Boys & Girls Club Hawley Troxell Kootenai Electric Fortress Business Solutions Coeur Realty

Speakers: Nils Rosdahl Mike Patrick John Baechler Kristina Brown Jaimee Cox Hannah Hill

Coeur d’Alene Press Coeur d’Alene Press Hanna & Associates Nana Macs Pure Barre CD’A Pure Barre CD’A

Shelley Webb Maureen Dolan Derek Deis Laura Rumpler

Social Web Social Media Marketing Agency North Idaho College KXLY North Idaho College

Purpose: To better understand how an effective leader can communicate with their stakeholders using a variety of mediums and communication tools.

Jaimee Cox and Hannah Hill are the local owners of the national brand Pure Barre. Their challenge is how to give a national brand a localized feel and speak to your brand at every level, meaning everyone in the company needs to engage with the brand on social media with posts that are fun, real, and relatable.

Instagram stories are better than posts; they capture FOMO with raw, unedited, living-in-the-moment images; they use localized hashtags and have an authentic following; not having purchased followers is the most important. People want real and relatable.

Build a relationship with people...

Social Media

Kristina Brown, Jaimee Cox, Hannah Hill, and Shelley Webb shared their social media best practices for various platforms, how to represent a brand, and growing followers and influence.

Kristina Brown from Nana Macs online clothing store staffed the company with models who are brand influencers and focus heavily on 1-on-1 engagement. They use Facebook Live as a “QVC” and have drastically grown their brand.

Shelley Webb started her business Social Webb in 2008 by heavily utilizing Twitter and began a blog about caring for her father with dementia. Writing about her experience made her a subject matter expert. It grew the requests she would get to speak or promote, eventually leading her to be an influencer for Oprah’s Magazine.

12

Nils Rosdahl, a journalism instructor at North Idaho College, spoke on what he looks for in a business story. He mentions that the top of a story includes the meat: “who, what, when, where, why, and how.” Then, he says, “always include these in the press release.” He even provided a handout “what I need when writing about business.”

How to Pitch a Story

Maureen Dolans, Community Relations Coordinator for Communications and Marketing at North Idaho College, formerly City Editor of the CD’A Press, talked to the Leadership Class on pitching story ideas or announcements. She stressed the importance of building relationships. One area of particular importance is to simplify the time it would take to edit the story to include relevant information, write grammatically correct text, and source information. Be a good friend to the media, and they will look to you for stories in the future.

Maureen suggested creating an email list of local reporters.

Create templets for story ideas and announcements. The best press releases include the 5 “W’s” in bullet form-then a brief written description at the bottom - ‘Why’ is often the most crucial element when pitching a story idea. Keep it short and sweet and follow the AP stylebook guidelines (available online).

The Leadership Class toured the CD’A Press to learn the ins and outs of putting a newspaper together from writing, printing, and distribution. During the tour, Mike Patrick, Editor at the CD’A Press, spoke to the Leadership Class about the importance of local newspapers. Over 1,000 newspaper companies have gone out of business in the last ten years, and in areas that have lost a local paper - crime has increased, government officials go unchecked. The population becomes less informed and uneducated on what’s happening in the community.

Derek Deis, an Anchor at KXLY, talked about 20 years in the tv news media and how he came to be responsible for the Made in America series. He said he wanted to show news media instead of talk about it and showed North Idaho 3-4 clips from the series, including Continuous Composites and Safeguard Equipment. He explained how these 1:30 second stories are very long for a tv news story – most are .10, .15, .30. Josh shared info about the Aerospace Conferences and Tyler from Continuous Composites, keynote speaker on kickoff night reception.

Laura Rumpler is the Crisis Management Communications Director for North Idaho College. She asked what a crisis meant to the group – pointing out ties to work, home, and volunteer positions, and outlining external and internal crisis triggers. In emergencies, it is common for leaders to want to stick their heads in the sand and wait for the crisis to pass. Stay calm, ask for help from experts/partners, channel core crisis leaderships skills, be empathetic, credible, and know all eyes are watching.

Does your place of business or board of directors have a crisis communications plan?

Work your plan, think ahead, list all your stakeholders, and communicate with your partners. There is no perfect plan; be ready to adapt. Be prepared to act during the critical hour and manage the multi-headed media monster (traditional media, social media, stalker troll, your very own media platforms).

Final tips, remember the rule of three: see opportunity in difficulty, develop a culture of openness to avoid a crisis.

...engage with the viewer, have an emotional connection and be memorable.

What are the elements of a successful advertising campaign?

John Baechler, half-owner of Hanna & Associates, talked about his Coeur d’Alene office and their work. Advertising with three simple measures to be a good investment: engage with the viewer, have an emotional connection – and be memorable.

He showed a series of Hanna’s Northern Quest Casino videos, walked us through the decisions made in that campaign and why it worked. John talked about the importance of simplicity in advertising and the importance of knowing your target markets.

Idaho Department of Fish & Game DEQ Kootenai County Solid Waste Kootenai Electric Cooperative

Purpose: To develop knowledge and understanding of the issues facing our national state, local land, water, and other natural resource practices impacting the balance between commerce, growth, sustainability and quality of life.

Natural Resources

David Gabrielsen and Mike Henley talked with the Leadership Class on the utilization of natural resources, including timber and water. Along with the discussion, the Class was able to experience these companies firsthand with tours at the Chilco Mill and Post Falls Dam. Historically, timber companies were vertically integrated with timber, manufacturing, and distribution. Vertical integration was broken up to allow for greater specialization in individual components. Actual timberlands are owned by investors but are managed by the Timber Investment Management Organization (TIMO). Hancock Forest Management is an example of a TIMO. Lands are carefully managed to maximize revenue, preserve resources, and allow access.

Idaho Forest Group has seven facilities with over 1,000 employees and 2500 contractors. They have the capacity to produce over 1 billion board-feet a year!

Lowes and Home Depot are the biggest consumers.

Mac Mikkelsen, Avista - Mac led us on a tour of the Post Falls Dam that has generated power since 1906. The dam controls the water level of Coeur d’Alene Lake; in winter, it draws the lake down 8 feet to make room for spring runoff and hinder aquatic growth. Maintaining lake levels helps to preserve recreation and property. During the drawdown, the lake mustn’t drop any more than 4 inches an hour.

Protecting Local Resources

Kiira Siitari, Regional Communications Manager, Idaho Department of Fish and Game (IDFG), presented information about the protection of wildlife and habitat.

Kristy Reed Johnson discussed the importance of the Rathdrum Prairie Aquifer. Both presenters stressed the importance of building knowledge in the community.

IDFG funding comes from licenses, mitigation payments, and federal taxes. With 589k total permits sold in 2018, anglers alone represented $20M in spending in our community.

They work collaboratively with local tribes to protect resources. Issues include encroachment, as evidenced by a recent bear in town, protecting spawning routes of native cutthroat trout, and preventing disease. The scariest problem right now is Chronic Wasting Disease (CWD) found in elk, which is 100% fatal - no cases yet in ID. Kristy Reed Johnson, Aquifer Protection District Board Education and Outreach Chair - The Aquifer Protective District (APD) is funded by the uniform parcel fund. It is a selfimposed tax to protect the drinking water of more than 500,000 people. The APD conducts well testing, audits, environmental clean-up, and education works closely with the Panhandle Health District for protection, whether it is from septic systems or storage of toxins. 17M gallons of liquids and 7.5M pounds of solids are stored above the aquifer. Waste would be sent in the sewer systems to one of the two treatment plants in Coeur d’Alene or Post Falls. Interestingly, the system where

our water flows goes into Washington, but we are at the head of the aquifer. We do not sell our water rights to other states. Also, do not flush your pharmaceuticals. Remember, if you pour it on the ground, you are going to drink it.

Waste

The Leadership Class toured the Wastewater Treatment Plant led by our member, Mike Anderson, and learned what happens to our waste, whether it is thrown or flushed away. Improvements in processing and alternative use help to manage the impact of the waste we generate.

Cathy Mayer, Director, Kootenai County Solid Waste Department - The department employs 62 people. Idaho and Kootenai County residents pay $93/residence for this service, and you can dump up to 2k pounds of garbage per load free of charge. It is unique for a community of our size to have a landfill. Recycling is a hot topic because China no longer accepts U.S. shipments of recyclable materials.

One saving factor for the Solid Waste Department is that recycling is sorted so that more places will take it.

Doug Elliott, General Manager/CEO – Kootenai Electric Cooperative - Doug presented the methane gas to energy project with Kootenai County Solid Waste Department.

KEC built a plant at the Fighting Creek Landfill to produce power for KEC via the methane created from the landfill.

That plant produces enough power for 1500 homes.

Mining Implications

Various speakers presented on the historical mining in the Silver Valley and the implications today - including the remediation of contaminations, health effects, protecting natural resources, and the current state of mining.

Rebecca Stevens, Program Manager/Restoration Coordinator Coeur d’Alene Tribe - Rebecca presented the CERCLA (Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation, and Liability Act, aka Superfund) and described the history of the Bunker Hill Mine or the Superfund site in the Silver Valley. Mining tailings contaminated the central and south forks of the Cd’A River, thus polluting Lake Cd’A. She discussed the restoration efforts and how to prove an “injured natural resource.” The latest case is the dying migratory tundra swans that feed on the water potatoes. The award for restoring the area affected by the Bunker Hill Mine was $140M. $127M was left to spend. She completed an open forum to capture ideas for restoration projects.

Signup for an email list at restorationpartnership.org.

Jamie Brunner, Lake Management Plan Supervisor – DEQ Coeur d’Alene Regional Office - Jamie presented information on the Coeur d’Alene Lake Management Plan.

Studies have shown that 3,800 miles of the land would drain into the lake. They are trying to manage the lake’s bottom, which is where the Cd’A River - and its tributaries - dump in lots of mining tailings (that may have settled at the bottom).

Val Wade, Environmental Health Specialist – Panhandle Health District - Val discussed the history of mining in the Silver Valley and the efforts now to protect citizens.

Ed Moreen, Project Manager – U.S. Environmental Protection Agency - Ed presented the successes that have been achieved around the Bunker Hill Mine. These include forests increasing, lining water collection sites, lead

testing, remediation of topsoil for the majority of homes, removal of contaminants in streams and banks, water treatment plants, and increased public awareness.

Steve Petroni, General Manager – Hecla Silver Valley, Inc. - Steve presented a history of Hecla Mining operations - the present and the future in mining excavation. He stated that mines are no longer the polluters like was historically seen in the area. Hecla operates seven mines in 3 countries. In the Kellogg region, they have a shaft that is over 10,000 feet below the surface level, one of the deepest mines in the country utilizing technology to improve safety and increase yields. Initially, silver was mined to support both World Wars and now is supporting technology, i.e., computers, phones, solar panels. In 2018, Hecla Mines had the highest revenue earned in company history.

Along with the discussion, the Leadership Class was able to better understand the recreational opportunities available by touring the Kroc Center, visiting Farragut State Park, and Silverwood Theme Park.

David White, Idaho Parks & Recreation Department The goal is to improve life in Idaho and promote community vitality through recreation. Idaho State Parks and Recreation is funded through motorized trails program, boating, and recreation grants.

The agency has a 34 million dollar budget, with 90% internally funded. All recreational activities in Idaho represent over a billion dollars in funds. Resources to better use the recreational services include a mobile app showing all motorized trails, and buying the Idaho Passport for $10 provides a day pass at all state parks. Local parks include Hayburn, Farragut, Old Mission, Trails of CDA, Round Lake, and CDA Parkway.

Tabitha Kraack, Executive Director, North Idaho Centennial Trail Foundation - The centennial trail runs from Higgens Point to the Stateline and then from the Stateline to 9 Mile Falls, of which 23 miles are paved. The foundation was created as a partnership with the community to provide funds to maintain the trail. An estimated 400,000 people use the trail outside of events every year. Estimates show that over $4 million in revenue is generated for the community through events and visitors using the path. Tabitha encouraged the Leadership Class to become involved in the trail either through

16

usage, helping to maintain, and increasing education in the community. More information is available on their website www.

NICTF.org.

The Salvation Army Kroc Center - Joan Kroc left $1.7 billion to the Salvation Army to build Kroc Centers throughout the United States and subsidize member costs. Our community was fortunate to get this center as the search was throughout the northwest, and they thought our community was too small for a membership base. However, we quickly exceeded all membership projections and now lead the marketing efforts in the Kroc Center system. The Kroc Center develops programming that is specific to needs in the community without duplicating efforts. Programs include swim lessons (Idaho has second-highest drowning rate), mobile Kroc to provide recess activities to reduce discipline issues, and community health programs at the facility.

Randall Butt, Idaho Parks & Recreation Park Manager, Farragut State Park - This state park started as a naval training facility in World War II. Farragut was chosen because of its proximity to the Pacific Theater, and the fact that it was inland, away from Japanese attacks. The park was the second-largest Naval Training Facility at the time. Today, there are over 40 miles of trails to explore in this North Idaho State gem.

Jordan Carter, Silverwood Theme Park - Silverwood takes a two-pronged plan to market the park, local and regional, or national. The message is similar, allowing adults to become kids again, but the audience changes. Beyond audience targeting, they look at where their dollars are being spent and analyze the

data to find the best bang for the buck.

The Arts

The class heard from a variety of speakers representing the arts in the community, including theater, music, sculpting, and paintings. The arts are essential in this community, and the Leadership Class was encouraged to participate and support the arts efforts in our region.

Susan Nipp, Author, Mudgy & Millie - Susan Nipp wanted to create sculptures similar to the ducks in Boston that would bring attention to the local community and various local icons. She decided to do this through a children’s book to help inspire them and get them involved or engaged early on. The book characters are designed so that the statues could be a presence in the community. There are six statues located around the downtown Coeur d’Alene. They are created to be more interactive so that kids can climb and touch, helping to make art more approachable.

Ali Shute, Arts and Culture Alliance - The Arts and Culture Alliance started as a committee in the CDA Chamber. Now it is a private nonprofit organization and rents an office in the chamber building. The alliance sponsors and hosts various events to promote art and culture in the community, including art walk, music walk, studio tours, music for the wise, kids draw architecture, arts buzz, and the Riverstone summer concert series. It is an excellent network for local artists, and new members of the community to get involved.

Jennifer Drake, Arts Commission Chairman - The Arts Commission is a Coeur d’Alene city entity for public art. In the 90s, the city realized the need for public art and created the first funded art commission in Idaho. Funding is provided by a city ordinance where any large capital improvement projects in the city a percentage of the total project is set aside for public art and through the sale of art pieces in the community. Because of this program, the art around town (over $100 million in art) is all publicly owned. Examples of public art include the feathers on Northwest Boulevard, the vinyl wrap on electrical boxes, murals in the community, and bike racks. The Arts Commission is always striving to put art in unexpected places that are open and accessible to the general population.

Marlo Faulkner, Coeur d’Alene Symphony - The Coeur d’Alene Symphony started as a class at North Idaho College 41 years ago and has since grown significantly. Initially, it was a volunteer symphony until last year when everyone was paid.

Schuler Performing Arts Center will have its grand opening on September 14, where Garrison Keillor will be performing with the symphony.

Stu Cabe, Artistic Director, Coeur d’Alene Summer Theatre The Cd’A Summer Theatre is a professional theater where all of the actors are paid. As a fun fact, many people have made the jump from Coeur d’Alene to Broadway.

Blair Williams, Art Spirit Gallery - Art Spirit Gallery has existed in some form for 22 years and is considered a place for professional artists, meaning people who make art for a living.

They can represent up to 60 artists at one time in the gallery with sales that total $25k-$45k per month. They are willing to work with various entities, including opening the gallery to nonprofits for fundraising events.

Purpose: To understand how our area leaders improve our standard of living through the creation of jobs, the support of innovation, and new ideas, you will be introduced to businesses and industries that have a significant economic impact locally to help further understand the key elements of our area’s economic health.

The City of Coeur d’Alene presented economic information about a variety of opportunities and challenges facing our community. We learned about the Atlas Waterfront Project and Envision Coeur d’Alene, which is focused on improvements to East Sherman.

The housing challenges within our community were discussed, and we learned about the “Missing Middle” component for different kinds of multi-family housing that could be applied to our housing shortages in Coeur d’Alene.

Ignite CDA is our city’s urban renewal agency. We heard from their Executive Director, Tony Berns, about the many projects that Ignite CDA has funded and how tax increment financing works. Some of the projects include Riverstone, the Kroc Center, Downtown Parking Garage, McEuen Park, and the Atlas Mill Site.

A new hospital district has just been formed so that Kootenai Health can have a bigger campus and transportation issues

within the district are being addressed. There is also a study that is looking at options for a new performing arts building.

Brent Lyles, Chair for the CDA Chamber of Commerce, told us about the activities and initiatives that the Chamber is undertaking to improve the local economy. Some of these activities include networking, lobbying at the state, subcommittee meetings, and marketing with CdAEDC (Jobs Plus).

The Leadership Class was presented with a panel of speakers to discuss the challenges and opportunities facing real estate locally. Areas of expertise included residential, commercial, and construction. These are leaders who have been in the business for numerous years and have helped make the community what it is today. They encouraged us to continue the progression with things such as the Innovation Den to allow for new space and new ideas to happen.

We as an industry must step up and help fill the skill gap.

We are a global economy now – what happens across the world does affect us in more ways than we think.

18

Commercial real estate is an economic driver in our community. Charlie Nipp, Parkwood Properties spoke about this company’s philosophy for long term investments - have patience, don’t build and sell, but develop, lease, and rent.

John Beutler from Century 21 Real Estate told us he has not seen housing prices coming down, even in a recession – may be stabilizing, but not going down.

Also, the land value is going to remain high. Our wages will not keep pace with construction costs. Renting is not a cheaper option in the long term; overall, you need to be educated in how things pencil out for you in the long run. Kris Pereira, with Ginno Construction, said CDA does not have the subcontractor base to build the number of homes and buildings that we need.

Various resources in the community for business development were presented to the class. The CDA EDC works on attracting new businesses to the area as well as assisting existing companies. The CDA EDC partners with many organizations to bring new companies to our region.

Organizations like the Panhandle Area Council (PAC), the Small Business Development Center, and the North Idaho College Venture Center all play a role in developing business activities in Kootenai County.

Sam Wolkenhauer, Economist for the Idaho Department of Labor and Dr. John Mitchell, Economist and retired professor from Boise State University, provided a look at the economy both at the local and national level. These are unprecedented times with no easy and direct answers, but looking at the numbers can give a more unbiased picture.

John Holecek Kootenai County Sheriff’s Office Lt. Kyle Hutchison Kootenai County Sheriff’s Office

Purpose: To highlight the work performed by public safety leaders in protecting and serving citizens in our

community; to explore current and future challenges in public safety and the criminal justice system.

The Leadership Class was presented with an overview of the law enforcement activities happening in the area, which included speakers from the city, county, and state police.

Sergeant Mark Ellis described activities the task force is involved in often tries to get those accused to act as an informant to help dismantle the entire organization.

The day started with an overview of the CDA Police Department from Chief Lee White, Captain John Kempf from the Idaho State Police, and Undersheriff Dan Mattos. A central point they touched on is how they handle the population and crime increase during the summer months. Deputy Dan Knight, Air Marshall, relayed that Spokane County’s Air Support Unit is one of the busiest call out units with over 90 calls a year that are primarily missing persons but also apprehension and rescues. Lt. Stu Miller, Special Weapons/Tactics, is the person who makes the call on whether the SWAT team is deployed and tactics to use. The unit has 26 operators and ten negotiators and two medics from CDA Police Department, Kootenai Sheriff’s office, and CDA Fire Department with the majority in their mid-20s but covers all ages.

Next, we heard from Bill Deruyter, Deputy Chief of Coeur d’Alene Fire Department, who let us know of the demands that are placed on firefighters. The specialty equipment needed and insurance has pushed more and more communities, including Coeur d’Alene, to eliminate volunteer positions. CDA Fire Department has partnered with NIC to create a curriculum for those interested in firefighting, as well as with the high schools offering seniors the opportunity to be involved.

Other law enforcement agencies we heard from were the FBI, the North Idaho Violent Crimes Task Force. Christian Parker is a regional director for the FBI operating out of Spokane. Mr. Parker stated that the FBI has a straightforward mission to protect the American people and uphold the Constitution of the United States.

20

Beverly Crawford represented Kootenai County 911 dispatch.

In 2018 they responded to 246,000 calls. Tiffany Westbrook is the Preparedness Coordinator in the Office of Emergency Management. Tiffany tries to connect with as many organizations as possible so that systems and relationships can be in place for an emergency. There are many opportunities to volunteer and serve with emergency management.

JT Taylor is the Director at the Juvenile Detention Center. The center is primarily for Kootenai County youth that will be held

under a year, but the average length of stay is 10-11 days. They have 31 employees, including a full-time nurse and two teachers. JT informed the Leadership Class that often these individuals are experiencing mental health issues, and that is often coupled with substance and physical abuse or households where a parent has been incarcerated.

To more fully understand local law enforcement and public safety, the Leadership Class received a demonstration from SWAT, K9 Unit, and fire suppression. Also, the Leadership Class got to tour the mobile command station, the SWAT vehicle, and the Kootenai County Jail.

Coeur d’Alene Tribe Kootenai County EMS ITD State Board Coeur d’Alene Airport Empire Airlines Empire Aerospace

Purpose: To acquaint the Leadership Class with aspects of local, state, and federal government as well as transportation topics and issues.

City Governments The Leadership Class was presented with information on the cities of Coeur d’Alene, Post Falls, and Hayden. All of these communities have been seeing large amounts of population growth and addressed how they are managing the concerns that come with expansion. To help experience the challenges that face local governments, the Leadership Class participated in a mock city council hearing.

Chris Bosley, an engineer for the City of Coeur d’Alene, talked about how CDA is relatively landlocked; much of the focus has been on redevelopment and reuse in existing areas. Ron Jacobson, Mayor of Post Falls, relayed that his city has some of the highest growth projections out of all the communities. Some estimates predict Post Falls could double in size by 2040. Brett Boyer, Hayden City Administrator, stated that Hayden is looking at a supplemental levy that would allow 24-hour law enforcement. Growth areas to the North and West will be facilitated by a new water tower and a water/sewer expansion partnership with a local home developer.

County Rich Houser, Kootenai County Assessor, and his team determine the value of all real and personal property in the county for tax purposes. Chris Fillios, County Commissioners (BOCC) for Kootenai County, encouraged the Leadership Class to do their research on any issues they want to get involved. The county works to increase transparency with performance indicators on kcgov.us.

State Government Paul Amador, Idaho State House of Representative, has represented District 4 since 2016. Idaho has a very interesting relationship with the federal government, as 63% of Idaho is owned by the federal government. One item that has been

22

getting much attention here is the proposed reentry center in North Idaho. Paul stated that 99% of people that go to prison would get out, and of those that get out, 70% will return to prison.

The reentry is already happening, and the released individuals are entering our community. This would help with the transition.

Mary Souza, Idaho State Senator, said Idaho has a perception of being near the bottom for education. In the last five years, Idaho has increased the education budget by almost $100 million, and it is one of the largest budget categories in the state.

Federal Government Karen Roetter, along with Juli Smith, Deputy Regional Director, represented Senator Crapo and told us about the workings of the federal government. Senator Crapo serves on the Finance Banking and Judiciary Committee and is appointed as the Chairman of the Committee of Committees. Rumors often float around politics, so make sure to do your research, especially when you can go right to the source versus the media channels.

Tribal Government Tyrel Stevenson is the Attorney & Legislative Director for the Coeur d’Alene Tribe. Tribes are their own sovereign nations under various federal Indian laws. Tribal members are citizens granted

by Congress in 1924. Tribes can’t be sued and may or may not pay state taxes, but they do pay federal tax.

Transportation Glenn Miles and Jim Coleman discussed planned highway projects and the criteria for road projects. Our transportation infrastructure is mostly from the 70s, so we need to focus on updating our systems and planning for future growth as it is estimated by 2040 there could be 307,000 people in Kootenai County.

Here are the major projects planned, or needed, over the next 40 years, and costs associated with them are listed below:

• • • • •

I-90 six-lane $425 million Huetter corridor $300 million I-90 port of entry $35 million regional traffic management center $5 million Widen US 95 bridge $23 million

Chad Ingle is with the public transit system with Citylink. Public transportation is essential for a community and nationally has shown a return of 4 to 1 for every dollar invested. Last year, 139K riders

rode for free on their fixed routes. For long term success, we need to develop a funding mechanism because there are also no state funds for public transit. A major accomplishment for CityLink is the recently opened Riverstone Transit Center.

Steven Kjergaard, Director of the Coeur d’Alene Airport, told us about the history and capabilities and gave us a tour of the airport.

Scott Marikis, Vice President & Chief Operating Officer of Empire Airlines, told us that Empire flies for FedEx and

Hawaiian Airlines as well as doing maintenance repairs and modifications on large turboprop aircraft. The company has 60 air crafts, 16 outstations in 5 different time zones, and 400 employees in 14 states. IUAV has become a significant segment of its operation with uses in agriculture, construction, timber, utility inspection.

The Leadership Class then received a tour of their maintenance and repair hanger.

Scott encouraged them to promote aviation and skilled trades for the next future generations.

Purpose: To acquaint the Leadership CDA class with aspects of K-12 and higher education opportunities and issues.

LOCAL NONPROFITS

The Leadership Class was presented information on ways that groups and organizations are supporting all individuals in Kootenai County. There are many opportunities to create a positive impact, whether through time and input, or financially.

Keri Stark, United Way, ALICE Program - ALICE stands for Asset Limited Income Constrained Employed. These individuals are often one unexpected expense away from being in a serious financial situation. There are many stigmas associated with the ALICE population, including that they should be able to pull themselves up by their bootstraps, meaning they have a mental illness or are just lazy. The truth is that ALICE is everywhere. 70% of jobs pay less than $20,000 a year, and even jobs such as CNA could be part of the ALICE population and face a high cost of living, particularly with housing, childcare, and low wages. Looking at housing and childcare costs more closely, the survival budget in Kootenai County factors rent at $700 and childcare at $900 a month that would be a 21% or 27% increase from 2010 to 2016 compared to the inflation rate of 9%. ALICE population data is available by texting IdahoALICE to 50503 or just googling ALICE Data.

Cindy Wood, Family Promise of North Idaho - Family Promise keeps families together during the crisis of homelessness. This was the first program in Idaho, and in 2018 they answered 544 calls for help. 50% of all the people they serve are kids that are preschool age or younger.

26

Chauntelle Lieske, Safe Passage - Safe Passage provides support for survivors of domestic and sexual violence. All of their services are completely free and confidential, and survivorcentered. Their work is centered around three themes: safety for individuals, resiliency for families, and empowerment in the community. Safe Passage operates a 24-hour hotline and has items like car seats, food, and bedding so people can immediately leave or not return to a location of abuse.

KJ Brant, Court-Appointed Special Advocates (CASA) CASA supports trained advocates for just under 500 child abuse and neglect victims in North Idaho. Advocates investigate child protection cases, represent the child’s best interest in court, and help find them a safe home with a forever family. Last year they served 496 children and had been seeing an increase of 20% more per year. CASA is funded by a $100,000 legislator initiative and local donations. Their goal is that every child within 48 hours of removal by child protected services has a CASA advocate reviewing their case.

Linda Cook, Union Gospel Mission (UGM) - The UGM Center for Women and Children in Coeur d’Alene offers a safe and healing environment for those experiencing the devastating impact of poverty, homelessness, abuse, addiction, and domestic violence. Broken does not mean helpless, so they focus on empowering women than giving. Staff focusses on avoiding judgment and connecting with individuals before correcting.

Saint Vincent de Paul Help Center and Campus - Saint Vincent de Paul is the largest social service agency helping over 5,000 unduplicated individuals annually. Since 1946 they have served the community by offering a Men’s Emergency Shelter (15 beds), Woman & Children’s Shelter (17 beds), over 300 units of affordable housing, Trinity Group Homes, and a winter warming center. Also, they operate a one-stop-shop HELP Center that provides 19 essential social service programs ranging from parenting, veteran services, career counseling, and housing.

Ryan Davis, Boys & Girls Club of Kootenai - The club provides services for 3,000+ children annually between the ages of 6-18. There are two clubs in Kootenai County, the Jordan Johnson Clubhouse in Post Falls and the Lola and Duane Hagadone Club in Coeur d’Alene. Their mission is to enable all young people, especially those who need us most, to reach their full potential as productive, caring, responsible citizens. In our community, there is a 53% poverty level of children based on free and reduced lunches.

Donna Euler, Idaho Youth Ranch - Idaho Youth Ranch is primarily known for its thrift stores; there are 20 stores statewide.

They also offer emergency shelter, residential care, youth and family therapy, job readiness training, adoption services, and more. There is an equine-assisted therapy with 40 horses available, and they are working to build a facility where the horses are kept. Idaho Youth Ranch has been providing adoptive maternity counseling since 1986.

Mark Wilson, The Children’s Village - The Children’s Village is an independent nonprofit where children can stay as long as needed; siblings stay together and stay in school. They are the only crisis nursery and facility for severe behavioral challenges.

They are working to provide residential care for teen boys because there is currently no other option.

Lindsay Patterson, Specialized Needs Recreation SNR is a nonprofit organization that provides recreational opportunities for youth and adults who have developmental and physical disabilities. We strive to teach our participants appropriate behavior and socialization skills through a variety of recreational opportunities.

Janet Pace, Safe Passage Children’s Advocacy Center CAC is a community-based center where staff serves as first responders in allegations of all types of child abuse. They provide hope and healing to neglected and abused children and their families through treatment, advocacy, and investigation services.

In 2019 they conducted 294 forensic interviews.

Community Action Partnership (CAP) - The CAP food banks provide a clearinghouse program where perishable food items such as bread, deli items, salads, milk, and other dairy products, pastries, fruits, vegetables, and fresh produce may be available once per week. This facility is designed to help preserve the integrity of the individual by running their program more like a grocery store where participants can choose what they are getting.

Tesh, Inc. - Tesh is a private, nonprofit organization whose core purpose is to provide choices and opportunities to people with disabilities of all ages seeking more significant opportunities, self-sufficiency, and participation in their community. There are approximately 460 individuals they serve all in various stages of working in the community. Last year they also assisted 40 high schoolers in getting their first job in part through their summer work program.

Session Planners: Ben Drake (Chair) Katie Hunt Lindsay Allen Miranda Hamilton Shane Greenfield Marvin Sears Ashley Yates Kathleen Tillman

Crown & Thistle Express Employment Professionals Northwest Realty Group Insurance Northwest Coldwell Banker Schneidmiller Realty Willamette Valley Bank Home Loan Center Columbia Bank Coldwell Banker Schneidmiller Realty

Purpose: To review and evaluate the 2019 Leadership Coeur d’Alene Program, assign session planners for the class of 2020, and to choose members to serve on the Leadership Coeur d’Alene Committee with the Chamber of Commerce.

What Goes into a Session As a recap to a wonderful year, the Leadership Class learned the inner workings on what is required to have successful sessions.

Thank you, Class of 2018, for all your hard work and accommodations of food and coffee to help us have the best year possible.

CdA Leadership Committee The Leadership Committee is designed to support the ongoing efforts of the program and provide continuity and guidance. There will be two people chosen to be on the committee from our Leadership Class, one of which will be the President. The Class is a multi-year commitment that meets once a month on the 2nd Thursday at 12:30 for approximately an hour.

Review of Sessions The Leadership Class discussed what they remembered about each day in the program to help determine key takeaways and best practices to enact for the next year. Many of their comments were largely similar to those that were made in the “best of the best.”

They are available in the packet that was distributed at the meeting. Some areas of emphasis were on Social Media Day and making that more applicable to nonprofits and providing specific training or real-world applications. We wanted to make sure that speakers, especially those associated with nonprofits, have some call to action for future Leadership Classes while maintaining the balance of them being told not to pitch to the group. The committee recommended that it is possible to schedule bonus tours just by mentioning that you are with the leadership program.

How to Plan a Day - The following is a list of best practices for planning a day

• • • • • • • • • • • •

28

Reach out to prior years chair Use the best of the best but also learn the why Begin working 3-4 months out and build schedule Wait until committee review before confirming any new speaker Try to find as many sponsors as possible (sponsors are also recognized in the yearbook) Ask venues about outside food and beverage Each class has a different response to their request - but don’t take offense Be diligent with the follow up on speakers Provide questions ahead of time Collect PowerPoints and additional items ahead and have backup options Pick up material for the class a couple of days early Feedback is not a personal attack

Distribution of Fine Money

As treasurer Hale Fields let by example and had the highest dollar amount of fines. Hale confirmed that our class raised enough funds to provide for the scholarship.

Memory Madness

Ali Marienau wowed the class by scoring the highest on the written quiz for names, nicknames, and employment and verbally reciting the entire class nicknames. Kyle Mai and Josh Wise also did well on the quiz!

Class Bingo

The Leadership Class got to see how well they were paying attention to all the little components of the sessions by playing Blackout Bingo with the squares being trivia pieces for each day.

Ryan Arnold and Josh Wise excelled at the recall, only having a slight issue on Media Day partially due to the class feeling that the answer was inaccurate for the reading level.

Social at Crown and Thistle
