Hummingbird House: New Life for Old Church Hunter Education Courses Now Available

Next Monday, Hummingbird House in Gooding will be serving a Prime Rib Valentine's Day Dinner. If you don't know what or where Hummingbird House is, don't feel embarrassed - they've only been open since December.

In 2020, the members of the Cockerham family purchased both the Chimney Creek coffee shack at the corner of Highway 46 & 26, and the Trinity Episcopal Church at 125 7th Avenue West in Gooding (behind Stampede Burger on the way to the school). The coffee shack was nearly a seamless transition with many people unaware of the change in ownership.

The old church building was a different matter.

Aside from being used occationally by local groups for meetings, the building has been sitting empty for several years. A full cleaning and remodel was needed, as well a zoning change from the city, to make it ready for business. They opened the doors of Hummingbird House to served coffee in early December, 2021, and to provide place for special events. They also serve beer and wine along with charcuterie boards (meats, cheeses, crackers, etc.). The long term goal is to upgrade the kitchen to provide a wider variety of foods.

Hummingbird House is open from 8 to 8 Monday thru Friday, and 8 to 3 Saturday/Sunday. Tickets for the Prime Rib Dinner are $48 each and include a Valentine bouquet of flowers for the ladies to take home. Must be purchased by February 12th. To order, contact Kendra (358-2409), Gustie (539-2409), or Tana (421-5423).

Text2Talk Provides Support for Local Teens

The Advocates for Survivors of Domestic Violence and Sexual Assault is pleased to announce the launch of Text2Talk, a new text line for teens. The text line, 208-795-3455, gives teens a safe space to talk about their relationships with trained Advocates staff from 9am to 9pm Sunday through Friday. All conversations are confidential and judgement-free and no topic is off limits!

During the summers of 2020 and 2021, The Advocates conducted listening sessions with young people in the Wood River Valley. “We learned that teens were losing their connections to each other and to trusted adults due to the pandemic,” states Monica Reyna, Violence Prevention Coordinator. “The idea for the teen text line emerged when teens explained that reaching out for help can be scary and intimidating for young people. We are here for teens in our valley and we want to meet them where they are.” continued on page 7...

Idaho Fish and Game’s hunter education program is resuming classroom courses throughout the state. These courses are led by a certified hunter education instructor who teaches the course material, answers questions and allows students to have hands-on training with nonfiring guns, as well as some opportunities for shooting actual firearms. Anyone who successfully completes the course will earn his/her hunter education certification and can buy a hunting license.

“We’ve heard from students and parents who want the classroom experience, and we have taken measures to make sure that we can provide these courses safely,” said Hunter and Angler Recruitment Manager, Brenda Beckley. “I think that everyone is recognizing they spend a lot of time online, and having this hands-on learning again really fits with what people want right now.”

While online hunter education courses have increased in popularity because of their flexibility, classroom courses are recommended for those new to hunting, firearms handling and anyone looking to become a safe, legal and effective hunter.

To see a full list of courses being offered, check out Fish and Game’s upcoming hunter education events page. If you do not see a class in your area, please call your local Fish and Game regional office.

If a class is full, wait list options are also available. If a seat becomes available, students have the opportunity to register. If students have already signed up for an online hunter education course, but have not completed it, they can still sign up and participate in an instructorled course.

Successfully completing hunter education is required for Idaho hunters who were born on or after Jan. 1, 1975.

school.

As I mentioned earlier, we hustled as fast as we could to get to the swings. In our little minds we were pilots. Sometimes we would be reduced to circus performers when we had to use the monkey bars, parallel bars, or the marry-go-round (sick bag acceptable).

When we would choose a swing, the ones with the deepest holes under them or the ones with the longest chains gave you the greatest height.

If there was one with a large hole under it, that showed it was easier to swing due to the traffic through it. Our biggest fears were when we collided together reaching for highest possible height. Sometimes the chain would come off.

That incident usually gave you gravel rash and bruises. In odd circumstances the whole swing would tip because everyone was in perfect unison.

Most of the time the whole set would only raise four inches, but the bailing out procedure was an override to keep the whole swing on the ground.

Our parents were always at odds with us because we came home with more torn out knees in our jean fabric than we did with good pants. Your chances of fun activities at home were slimmer when you had the knees out of the pants you were wearing for the first time. It is a true wonder that more of us didn’t break legs. We would jump at twelve feet high. Now, as I am a few years older and my knees don’t work as well, I wonder if it was worth being an ace at such an early age.

Today I don’t have the ace scarf but the ace bandage instead.

This is my “Cup of Tee” bailing on you for now.

Three Reasons To Bank Local

3

• Wednesday, February 9, 2022 • The Courier NEWS

Physical branches have some advantages that can’t be matched by online banking

by Aaron Geurts In the digital age, online banking has become increasingly popular. The Federal Reserve noted that about half of American adults accessed their bank accounts with a mobile app last year and this number is projected to increase.

But even with all the benefits of online banking, there are at least three reasons why it makes sense to visit a local bank branch.

Reason #1: Use branch services that can’t be completed online.

Although many bank services have become digitized, some are only offered in person, such as notarization of documents, cashier’s checks and access to a safe deposit box.

Reason #2: Obtain help planning for a major financial milestone.

Critical milestones, such as buying a home or expanding your business, will have a substantial effect on your long-term finances. It’s important to plan ahead so you can avoid potential financial pitfalls. There’s no shortage of information online about different types of financial products and services. But it can be hard to know which loan best meets your individual needs based on a Google search alone. Working with an experienced banker can help you find the best fit.

Reason #3: Resolve a major financial issue.

If you have a complicated financial problem, you’ll likely obtain better results by making an appointment with someone at your local branch. Some issues, such as identity theft, fraud or excessive debt, are nuanced and can’t easily be solved with a mobile app. A local bank branch and its staff of trained bankers can complement the online banking experience. Don’t hesitate to leverage both digital and branch banking tools as you work toward your financial goals.

Aaron Geurts is the Gooding branch manager for Zions Bank, a division of Zions Bancorporation, N.A. Member FDIC. He can be reached at aaron.geurts@zionsbank.com or 208-934-8431.

Legislative Update from Representatives Toone & Davis

On Friday, House Education Committee passed an updated scholarship code for military families. HB461 aims to update Idaho code 33-4302 so that if (a) an Idaho parent serves in the military and (b) falls in-service doing what they were ordered to do, then (c) their child or spouse will be eligible for this scholarship, assuming they meet the other prerequisites. The current code states that active military must fall in combat for spouses and children to qualify. Recent events in Idaho brought attention to the qualification of members of "inactive duty training." The language left many military members of the National Guard without options for their survivors. The update also included active military personnel, inactive duty training, and public safety officers' duty. It passed unanimously and on to the full floor.

IDAHO COUNTIES MEET The Association of Counties hosted all county folks including many from District 26 this week for their annual meetings. It was nice to see our Commissioners, Assessors, Clerks, Prosecutors, and Treasurers. We had several opportunities to meet with them and discuss a variety of issues including property taxes, the circuit breaker fixes for seniors, funding for jails and court houses, and the bill working its way through the House that will establish funding for increasing water quality around CAFOs. The discussions were very helpful for us to make sure that we're being good partners with our elected County officials. There has been an unnecessarily adversarial relationship coming from many in the House towards our County and City friends over the last few sessions, and this was a good opportunity to let them know that District 26 doesn't feel the same as many House members. We value what they do, and we also understand that the Legislature requires them to provide significant services to citizens while not making it easy to pay for or continued on page 7... provide those required services.

Michael Ray Montgomery

Michael Ray Montgomery, 34, a resident of Wendell, Idaho, left us way too soon on February 2, 2022 at St. Luke’s Magic Valley Medical Center in Twin Falls, Idaho.

Michael was born January 5, 1988, in Roseau, MN to Kevin and Shirley. He joined an older brother, Daniel, and was quickly joined by a sister, Jeanine, and another brother, Eric. The kids were so close together in age that they did everything together. When Michael was 3, the family moved to Grand Forks, ND. In January of 1995 the family moved to Bismarck, ND. Michael absorbed everything he heard or read, and was never one to tolerate someone mis-stating a fact. In the first grade he got in trouble for correcting a teacher in front of the class. She told the class that a dolphin was a fish, but he had to make sure that she knew that a dolphin was a mammal, not a fish. Unfortunately for all of us, the teacher argued and so did he. In June of 1996, the family moved again to Twin Falls, Idaho.

In December of 1997, the family found their home in Gooding, Idaho, and remained there.

Michael went to school in Gooding and completed his education in 2006. As a young man Michael worked at different jobs, Burger King, and Wal-Mart among them. It was working at Wal-Mart in Jerome that he met the girl, Amber Marie Jones, that would be the love of his life. After being together for over eight years, they married on December 29, 2016. Their home was in Twin Falls until December of 2018 when they moved to Wendell. Their pets were their children, and they had many that were part of the family over the years. Michael’s husky, Mischief, was the dog he had always wanted. He was very proud of how strong, beautiful, and energetic she was.

In July of 2011 Michael started work for the Wendell School District helping with unboxing and setting up the technology for the new Elementary School. It was here that he found his work passion which went along with his personal passion for video games that started when he was a small boy. He had always loved computers and designing video games, but working in an environment that allowed him to use his abilities in so many ways was a perfect fit for him. Over the years his role increased gradually until he took over the position of Technology Director on July 1, 2021. One of the many parts of his job was to help mentor students as Technology Interns.

Those students became his “kids,” and he did everything that he could to make sure that when they graduated that had all the knowledge and skills to succeed after high school.

In 2010, his sister had a baby boy, Thomas, that would be one of the highlights of Michael’s life.

They were two of a kind and whenever they were together no one else mattered. Thomas would come to work with Michael and take apart and put together computers just because it was what Uncle Michael would do. They would play with Lego’s and video games together for hours.

Michael is survived by his wife, Amber; his parents, Kevin and Shirley; his brothers, Daniel and Eric; and his sister Jeanine; his nephew and joy Thomas; his grandparents Raymond and Marian Tollefson, Nancy Montgomery, and Paul and Liz Montgomery; his dogs Mischief and Miki, and their cat Sidekick. He is also survived by many cousins, aunts, uncles, many other extended family members and friends.

He was preceded in death by cousin Johnny Kemper.

A Celebration of Life will be held on Wednesday, February 9, 2022, at 6:00 pm at the Wendell High School Auditorium.

Cremation arrangements are under the care and direction of Demaray Funeral Service – Wendell Chapel.

In lieu of flowers, please make donations to the Wendell School District, PO Box 300, Wendell, ID 83355, to help provide laptops for graduating students in need.

Francis Fay Fuqua

Francis "Frank" Fay Fuqua, 75, a resident of Shoshone, passed away on Friday, January 21, 2022 at his home in Shoshone. He was was born November 30, 1946 in Fairbury, Nebraska.

Frank was tough around the edges but with a heart of gold. He loved music from his youth, from Renegades to Just Us Five, and dances at VFW. Frank was a Sargent in the United States Marine Corp. He served his country proudly.

Frank was a section foreman for the Union Pacific Railroad.

He had bowlegs and railroad spikes to prove it. Frank loved to fish and hunt. There was nothing better than catching and releasing a sturgeon bigger than your couch on the snake. He loved racing cars and anything that had power he embraced.

He is preceded in death by his mother - Pearl Fuqua; his father - Charles Fuqua; his sister - Sandy Williams. He is survived by his wife - Lue; his brother - Brad Fuqua; his sister - Brenda Rice; his daughter - Tami Fuqua.

There will be a celebration of life announced at a later date. Condolences, memories and photos can be shared with the family by following the obituary link at www.demarayfuneralservice.com

There has been a 25% increase over the last 5 years in programs offered, and 1,744 degrees awarded last year. 91% of students who completed a technical college course found jobs or continued their education. This is a stellar track record, and as Idaho jobs evolve and get more demand-

ing in terms of skills, these programs will continue to become more important. We had the opportunity to meet a student from NIC who is just finishing the surgical tech program, and she will be running setting up operating rooms upon completion this summer.

We know that she will go on to do great things and help doctors and nurses save lives.

BROADBAND Thank you Senator Stennett for the information from the FCC. Our rural communities might find this helpful and it is well worth repeating. The Federal Communications Commission has issued new guidance for the affordable connectivity program. This program provides eligible households with discounts of up to $30 a month for broadband services (up to $75 a month if the household is on tribal lands) and a one-time discount of up to $100 on a computer or tablet. The FCC's recent decision incorporated many requests from local governments and included a Further Notice of Proposed Rulemaking (FNPRM) on

physical, or sexual abuse by their partner, and the Wood River Valley is right on par with national statistics. The Advocates staff conducts healthy relationship workshops with teens across the valley. “At each workshop, we ask students if they, or someone they know, experienced power-based personal violence such as bullying, sexual harassment, sexual assault, rape, or teen dating abuse.

The majority of students say ‘yes’,” says Reyna.

how local governments and community partners can partner with the FCC on program outreach.

Protecting Elderly From Rising Property Taxes The Senate passed SB1241 which will protect elderly Idahoans from losing their homes while living on fixed or limited incomes. This bill would increase the homeowner's home value for circuit breaker qualification from 125% to 200% of the median home value. This bill has much support from counties and would allow many with limited incomes to remain in their homes.

Huge Tax Bill Passes The Senate passed and the Governor signed a record income tax cut and rebate bill this week. The huge cuts do not address many issues for our citizens. Most have asked for property tax relief and this does none of that.

The "Working Families" solutions offer families solutions: end grocery taxes, $380M in property tax cuts, child tax credits, fund critical needs in education, local communities and public safety.

In Idaho, approximately 23,000 high school students were hit, slapped, or physically hurt on purpose by someone they were dating in the past 12 months. In addition, approximately 69,000 female students reported sexual dating violence one or more times in the previous year alone (2019 Idaho Youth Risk Behavior Survey). “Experiencing dating abuse can carry a lot of stigma. Text2Talk is an amazing thing for our community, creating a safe and simple way for teens to access the help they need, free from stigma,” says Every Teen Counts Intern Asia Angel. The Text2Talk line provides a way for teens to connect with someone who can help and where they can ask questions such as: • I think my friend is in a toxic relationship. What should I do?

• Someone is threatening to share my nude photos. I’m afraid I’ll get in trouble if I ask for help.

• Someone at work is harassing me. What should I do?

• My best friend is nice to me but is a bully to other people. Should I stop being friends with her?

“I think Text2Talk is a great resource for many struggling teens. I see and hear so many teens that just need to open up and want to be heard by someone,” says Leslie Cardoso of Shoshone.

Over the last two years’ The Advocates educated over 5,000 students and community members. “Text2Talk keeps the conversation going outside of the classroom, where teens are navigating the in’s and out’s of identity, friendship, love, and dating.” says Darrel Harris, Social Change Director. “We believe that education is the key to reducing the number of people hurt by power-based personal violence.” As opposed to an impersonal search engine, Text2Talk connects teens with a real person who can help them think through and identify solutions, or simply offer a listening ear.

Text2Talk is not a crisis line. If you or someone you know is in crisis, please do not hesitate to call The Advocates’ Hotline at 208-788-4191, or the Crisis Hotline at 208-788-3596. If you are in immediate danger, please call 911. Text2Talk is available now at 208-795-3455. “Knowing I have sources of support that are real, reliable, and local makes me feel welcome in this community. It ensures that I am important to someone and that I am cared for. Talking about a problem with someone who gives great outside perspective with advice always helps me feel understood and lets me know that someone is there for me, even through text” says local teen Kay Angell.
