News Bikers for Kids
They pass us on the highway with a roar. They have a long standing reputation for being wild and free. They have inspired fear and excitement in young men ever since the motorcycle was invented. They are the rough and tough bikers with their new and vintage Harleys, Triumphs, Yamahas, Indians, and Kawasakis. They are, however, a far cry from the motorcycle gangs that we’ve seen on the silver screen. The local biker group, Snake River Bros (SRB), is a non-profit 501(c)3 motorcycle group that spends its time raising money to help children in need. Since it begain in 2001, SRB has
donated over $100,000 to organizations like the Idaho School for Deaf and Blind, Magic Valley Crisis Center, Camp Rainbow Gold, and many more. Funds are raised through membership dues, organized rides, motorcycle rally’s, raffles and auctions, and donations from people and busnesses who just want to help children in the Southern Idaho and Norther Nevada area who suffer with debilitating injuries or diseases. During the month of March, Hub City Performance (in Wendell) will be donating 10% of their netprofit to SRB. They are also offering a Match Fund for customers who donate to
SRB (up to 10% of the customers repair order). A BBQ will be held on April 11th to present the funds to SRB. If you are looking for something to put in the freezer, Snake River Bros are having a Beef Raffle with the drawing on July 11th. Tickets are $20 and you have four chances to win.

Planting will begin Saturday March 21, with a project North of King Hill and continue Saturday March 28, with a project between Richfield and Carey.

Idaho Rodeo Hall of Fame
by Charmy LeaVell Spring is on the way with green grass beginning to show and the Long Horned Steers are getting restless with urges to bunch up and migrate to main street grass again in Gooding! They really enjoyed themselves last year – so much so that they had several injuries to their horns, legs & feet due to sprinkler and irrigating water damage from staying on last years’ grass too long and the high winds. To our dismay, some of them didn’t survive the winter. Due to the high cost of beef and steer rustlers last year, we’re considering implant chips! We had many people who declared they wanted the steers to remain year around Dates in April may be and the spirit of community forthcoming but none are and competition proved to currently planned.

Camas HS Honor Roll 2014-2015 1st Semester
Remember Waldo? He was a cartoon character created by Martin Hanford in the 1980’s who had brown hair, glasses, a stocking hat, and matching red and white clothes. Waldo traveled on a world wide hike with a walking stick, kettle, mallet, cup, backpack, sleeping bag, binoculars, camera, snorkel, belt, bag, and a shovel. Invariably Waldo would lose one of his possessions and it was up to us to find it, but first, we had to answer the question, “Where’s Waldo?” simply because he blended in a huge overview of people. Sometimes Waldo would be where you least expected him. The Wisdom of Waldo. Lately it seems everyone is asking a similar type question, “Where is Tee?” Recently I have been in Oregon, Utah, Colorado, Kansas, Wyoming, and Pennsylvania. Before the week is out I may be in Nevada. If I don’t get off the porch I will be found in Idaho, at least for a few days. Thinking about that reminds me of some “Wisdoms of Idaho.” A cattle drive may start with a pickup, but usually ends with a horse... To feed a man for a day is to fish, to make him a fisherman teach him in Idaho... To beat your neighbor is a day at the tractor pull after you have had a pleasant breakfast together. The atomic generation is tested and proven with a submarine in the desert... When traveling by darkness be sure both flashlights have batteries... Idaho has been a hot spot for years, the lava flows show us that... The call of the wild is often done with a shovel and a roll of toilet paper. Every highway runs into a road, every road runs into a dirt road, every dirt road runs into a trail, every trail stands on its own... Indians were the earliest map makers of our state... Volcanic soil, cool nights, proper water, and Northern Hemisphere sunlight make the best potatoes... Sturgeon fish are the example that Idaho existed before it does now. Water is the basis for legislature... Locust prove their value only in fish bait... Branding time separates mine and yours... Hashbrowns can not completely fill the plate, there must be room for gravy... Our state’s borders weren’t built with fences. Wapiti - ghost of the forest... Sheep - 10,000 coyotes can’t be wrong... The Russians have nothing on Idaho Vodka makers... Gold is a fever that affects many a man’s eyes... Cattle make money while you sleep... Mosquito abatement - send more tourists, the last ones were delicious... Pass the potatoes, please. A double date is two “Cups of Tee” read out loud.
