Idaho Governor's Cup Scholarship Recipients
Governor Brad Little has announced the recipients of the 2021 Governor's Cup Scholarships. Last year's Governor's Cup fundraising drive brought in enough money for 27 new scholarships to be awarded this year, despite the cancellation of the annual event. Recipients were chosen from among more than 2,000 applicants by the Idaho Governor's Cup Scholarship Fund Inc.'s 14-member board of directors. Selections were made based on each applicant's commitment to public service, academic achievement, leadership, and community involvement. The award is $3,000 per year, renewable for up to four years, or two to three years for careertechnical programs, contingent upon the length of the program. This year's recipients include two students from our area: Aspen Stinemates from Wendell High School, will attend Idaho State University; and Gardner Davis from Gooding High School, will attend College of Southern Idaho. "We are so impressed with the recipients for the 2021 Governor's Cup Scholarship, especially for completing their senior year of high school during such an unprecedented time. These students have demonstrated their commitment to their neighbors, communities, and the state, and we are proud to have them become the next generation of Idaho leaders," Governor Little said. "Additionally, we would like to express appreciation for the generous sponsors and donors who contributed to the scholarship program last year despite the event cancellation. Providing opportunities for these students has always been at the heart of the Governor's Cup and being able to continue that legacy amid uncertain times is important." The Governor and First Lady will host a reception honoring the recipients on June 7 at the Capitol in Boise. The 2021 Idaho Governor's Cup annual fundraising event return seewill page 5.....to Sun Valley Sept. 9-11, where the continued support from numerous donors will allow the scholarship fund to continue serving students next year.

...Soldier Mountain Bike Park continued
Guests who buy ski passes for the 2021-2022 season now at soldiermountainseasonpass.com can ride the bike park for free for the rest of the 2021 summer season. Season ski passes cost $449 for adults (ages 18-69) and $239 for youth (ages 6-17). Now one of 11 Ski Idaho resorts offering lift-served mountain biking, Soldier Mountain boasts 7.7 miles of gravity mountain biking on four new trails. The bike park was designed and built by Hailey-based Titus Trails and Apex Trail Construction from Park City, Utah, with generous help from Southwest Idaho Mountain Bike Association, Wood River Trails Coalition, and other volunteers. The trails are made for all skill levels and consist of easy, intermediate, advanced hand-cut, and extreme machine-cut jump trails. Soldier Mountain has also added a skills park and plans to add a longer, hand-cut intermediate trail this summer. "Having had the opportunity to preview Soldier Mountain's new trails, I am thrilled with the addition of a new lift-accessed bike park in our region," Julian Tyo, a Wood River Trails Coalition board member, said. "The progression built within the network is pitch perfect, with a playful, family friendly green trail and a black jump trail that is the real deal. With a blue jump trail currently in the works by Titus Trails, I'm confident the offering the Soldier Mountain team is creating will appeal to bikers of all abilities." After the Phillips Fire prevented the resort from opening it last summer, "We're excited to be opening our bike park," Soldier Mountain's general manager, Paul Alden, said. "These trails are built to world-class standards, and we look forward to being the preferred local mountain-biking destination for riders of all ages and abilities." Alden said Soldier Mountain will have limited mountain bike rentals due to current mountain bike and bike parts supply chain issues that have persisted due to the COVID-19 pandemic.
