Charity Clinic in Shoshone
Healthcare is a subject of much debate in America, although, most of what we hear from politicians and the media is empty rhetoric designed to blame one group or another without presenting real solutions. It is broadly claimed that 78,000 people in Idaho have no access to healthcare. This is based on a statistical “estimate” that 5% of our population earns too little to qualify for insurance assistance and too much for traditional Medicaid. The problem with this number is that, not having health insurance is not the same thing as not having access to healthcare. For many, self-pay is more economical than buying insurance. Also, numbers like this ignore the efforts that are going on in our state to help bring healthcare to low income families. Every hospital in Idaho provides some level of charity care. North Canyon Medical Center in Gooding provides about $400,000 in charity care each year, along with over $1 million in other services to the community. Of course, services received at hospitals are usually far more expensive than the healthcare provided by clinics. Since 2004, the Wellness Tree Community Clinic in Twin Falls has provided free medical and dental care to individuals in the Magic Valley, and the popularity of this clinic over the last several years has made it a challenge to keep up with the demand for services. Earlier this year, however, a new charity clinic was established in Shoshone. One evening a month, the Good Samaritan Clinic opens its doors at the Shoshone Family Medical Center (113 South Apple) to offer free medical services. The general requirements are simple: if you do not have health insurance and your income is less than $2010 per month, you can use this service (larger households have higher income limits). If your income is low and you have a high insurance deductible, you still might be eligible. Also, you do not have to live in Lincoln County (residents of Camas, Gooding, etc. can apply). This service does not cover prescriptions, hospital procedures, or services performed by medical specialist, even if the clinic provider makes a referral (waivers and/or vouchers may be available, but must be obtained in advance). To use the service, individuals must sign a waiver acknowledging State Statue Title 39-7703 which provides immunity from liability to healthcare providers who volunteer their services at a free clinic without compensation. Good Samaritan Clinic provider, Dr. Keith Davis, said no one should let the lack of insurance or income prevent them from seeking medical services. Don’t wait until you have an emergency to see a doctor. Call 208-886-2224 for more information.

Know Before You Go! 4th of July in the Forest
If you plan to visit the Sawtooth National Forest during the Independence Day holiday (July 4th), “Know before you go,” suggests Sawtooth National Forest Supervisor Kit Mullen. What’s important to know? Fireworks are prohibited on all national forests year-round. Even if it’s “green,” please practice good sense by using caution with fire and smoking at all times, in all places. Responsible Motorized Use. Please stay on designated routes and obtain the appropriate travel maps before you go. On the Sawtooth National Forest visitors should carry the FREE Motorized Vehicle Use Maps, available at Forest Service Offices throughout South Central Idaho. Digital maps for mobile applications can be downloaded at: http://www.avenza.com/pdfmaps/store . Please do not go around a Road Closed Sign. Be Careful with Fire. While the Forest looks green, fire danger is an important concern. Fires can start very quickly and burn in vegetation that may seem green but is drying out at an alarming rate. There are no fire restrictions at this time. Please when leaving your campsite for the day or when leaving for home, “make sure your campfire is cold to the touch”. Keep it Clean to Avoid Bear Encounters! Bears often develop a strong liking for human and pet foods. Store food in hardsided vehicles or bear-proof containers; keep sleeping areas, tents and sleeping bags free from food and food odors; and wash up, change clothes and remove all scented articles nearby before going to bed. Wild bears avoid people, but bears conditioned to human food can be aggressive and may be euthanized if problems occur. Recreation Information. Baumgartner Campground is now open. Baumgartner Campground, located 14 miles east of Featherville, Idaho on the South Fork of the Boise River, is the “crown jewel” of the Fairfield Ranger District. The campground has 40 newly renovated sites thanks to a Recreation Vehicle grant from the Idaho Department of Parks and Recreation. Campground amenities include paved roads and spurs, picnic tables, fire rings, 10 restrooms, potable water and trash service. The campground also has a very popular hot pool that flows 111 degree water into a 12’ x 20’ tub.

The Bug Crew Returneth
Just like ancient Rome was torn apart by internal enemies, the pristine rangelands of Camas County also has an internal enemy threatening the balance of vegetation; White-top. White-top is a deep-rooted creeping mustard that invades crops, riparian areas, and rangelands. This plant has become noxious in 24 states. It’s leaves can be up to 10 centimeters long and it’s flowers are white and bloom from April to May. This noxious villain can carry up to 2,300 seed pods. Each pod contains 2 small seeds that can remain viable for three years. But never fear, for a new hero is here! Julius “CECA” and his weevil army are storming through the White-top villages. Julius “CECA” is a stem-galling weevil that is soon to be released. CECA stands for Ceutorhynchus cardariae, and is designed to be implemented by land managers and researchers. Julius “CECA” would like your help to find new locations to fight. If you see any treacherous white-top call the Camas County Weed Superintendent, Terry Lee, at (208)-764-3512 or the Eric McHan at the Bug Crew, (208)-316-0355.
State Board of Education Approves First Idaho Community College Baccalaureate
The Idaho State Board of Education voted unanimously to approve a baccalaureate degree proposal from the College of Southern Idaho in support of regional food processors. The Bachelor of Applied Science in Advanced Food Technology is designed to provide the opportunities for workers in the food processing sector to advance their educational credentials and study topics such as business management, transportation, logistics, and supply chain strategy. Idaho statute has long provided the authority of community colleges to offer degrees according to certain conditions, but this is the first time a community college baccalaureate program has been authorized by the Board. The Board also discussed a similar proposal for a bachelor’s degree in teacher education, but postponed action to the August State Board meeting. The approval of CSI baccalaureate degrees by the State Board is not the final step in the approval process. CSI will now seek approval by the Northwest Commission on Colleges and Universities to offer this and subsequent bachelor’s degrees, a process that can take a significant amount of time and effort. The proposals for the bachelor’s degree programs were unanimously endorsed by the CSI Board of Trustees at their March 26, 2108, meeting. Since then, they have been subjected to a significant review and comment process at the state level prior to the presentation to the State Board made yesterday in Idaho Falls by President Jeff Fox and Executive Vice President Todd Schwarz. The College emphasizes its community college mission to serve regional workforce and transfer education needs, and the design and focus of the proposed applied bachelor’s degree is congruent with our mission. “CSI has always sought to serve the south-central Idaho community and is completely committed to that mission. If that mission includes specific programs of study at the baccalaureate level that are best delivered by CSI, and which are connected to our regional mission, then we will absolutely strive to fulfill that obligation,” said Schwarz.

Cup of Tee
© I had to make a decision on what to do with my old station wagon car. I had blown the motor years ago west of Hill City, Idaho. I had saved one of my motors from one of my demolition cars to exchange for the bad one, but never got the change done. Since the place I used to live was sold last year, I have been storing the car (not necessarily a safe haven for the car). I decided to crush the car at the auto recyclers. State law requires you must have a title to crush a car. Someone had tried to enter my big safe where my title was stored and the open handle had got broken. So now I had to break into my own safe. The safe was stored in the very rear of my storage unit, you might say for safe keeping. What a job to get it out! My friend Fred and I went to disassembling the safe in his shop. With hammers, chisels, bars, wrenches, and manpower, the door to the safe was opened and I was able to get my title to the station wagon. Prior to cracking the safe, we got my station wagon on my trailer and brought it to Fred’s shop. To get there, the trailer developed a short and the brakes locked up, burning out one of the wires on my light plug. As dry as it is, hot brakes are not a safe way to move things around. I decided while the car was on the trailer I would take the fancy wire hubcaps off. Needless to say, I couldn’t take them off because I didn’t

have one of those fancy little hubcap remover tools. Boy, I would have really been mad if I had a flat tire somewhere and not able to get the tire off. Since my spare tire was brand new, I decided to take it out as well. Up inside the wagon I encountered a wasp nest and was stung. Not such a safe place to be. I carried the safe and placed it in the rear of the wagon. Earlier I had carried it into the shop. Before that I had carried it from the rear of the storage shed. This made me think, “Okay, three safes and you are out!!!” Three times carrying the safe was enough for me and the last time it went with the car to be crushed. Upon arriving at the recyclers I realized I left the title in Fred’s shop. No transaction could be done without the title! I made the 30mile-round-trip to get the title taken care of. I didn’t realize that getting rid of my station wagon was going to be such an ordeal. In fact, breaking open the safe’s door was about the easiest part of the whole process of getting the car on its way out. This is my “Cup of Tee” safe to say.
