New Playground for Bliss

Over the last several year, federal monies have been distributed throughout out communities as part of the American Rescue Plan Act (ARPA). While many of these funds were used to help employers keep employees on payroll during various shutdowns, $350 billion was earmarked for state and local governments.

In Gooding County, over $350,000 in ARPA funds was distributed to four cities (Wendell, Gooding, Hagerman & Bliss) to help fund special projects.

Most communities have used these funds for public health, economic needs, and educational programs such as 4H. Bliss used $90,000 to construct a new playground next to the city building. In Gooding, funds were used for an exercise court, and Hagerman used the money to help make their walking path ADA compliant.

F&G Seeks Public Comment on Proposed Sage-Grouse Hunting Seasons

Idaho Fish and Game officials are asking hunters and other interested parties to review and comment on proposed sage-grouse hunting seasons and tag proposals for 2023-24. Deadline to comment is July 19. Tag quotas have been increased in 7 of the 12 zones.

The sage-grouse tag system is designed to limit harvest to no more than a maximum of 10% of the estimated fall population in each 12 reporting zones. In each zone, fall populations were estimated based on spring 2023 lek counts and recruitment estimates derived from juvenile: adult ratios observed in the harvest.

To generate proposed tag numbers for each zone, Department staff first determined allowable harvest (targeting 8% of the estimated fall population in most zones during 2023), then assumed a 75% success rate.

City of Wendell Receives City Achievement Award

The Association of Idaho Cities (AIC) recognized the City of Wendell with a Garret Nancolas City Achievement Award at the June 22nd banquet during the 76th AIC Annual Conference in Boise held June 21-23, 2023.

Creativity, innovation, and solutions-oriented leadership define Idaho city officials. The Garret Nancolas City Achievement Awards recognize the work of cities around Idaho that have implemented pioneering approaches to improve quality of life, address community challenges, and enhance service delivery in cost-effective ways. This year, awards were given in six categories: Community Engagement, Economic & Community Development, Parks & Recreation, Public Safety, Public Works & Transportation, and Youth & Youth Council.

The City of Wendell was recognized with a City Achievement Award in the Community Engagement Category for its project Community Spring Cleanup. The city provided dumpsters at city hall to encourage citizens to dispose of unwanted items. The city also picks up old furniture and larger things that are harder to take to the landfill. The program also provides an easy way to dispose of spring yard waste. Public Works also recycles old appliances and tires.

The Association of Idaho Cities was formed in 1947 and is a non partisan, nonprofit corporation organized to serve Idaho’s 199 incorporated cities. AIC influences policies and provides education, training and technical assistance to strengthen

Dealing with Deffused

Diffuse knapweed is one of the most common invasive species in Camas county. When sheep were imported to the US from the Mediterranean, they brought knapweed seed heads in their wool, but neglected to bring knapweed insect predatory insects. The Camas Bug Crew is working hard to re-introduce this noxious weed to its insect biological control insects. But, first, a little bio on this weed.

Diffuse knapweed is a biennial or short-lived, perennial reproducing entirely by seed and producing up to 18,00 seeds per plant. Flowers occur singly or in clusters, bloom from July to September and may be white, pink or lavender. The bracts of the flower heads are tipped with a long, slender spine frigid with smaller spines. Seeds are blackish-brown with vertical brown and gray stripes and about 0.1 inch long. Stems are typically 6 inches to 2 feet tall with deeply divided leaves. Diffuse knapweed prefers well-drained, light textures soils and is intolerant of shade. This plant is common along roadside, at disturbed sites, and in abandoned areas. To date, thirteen biological control agents have been approved for release for the knapweed complex, which includes diffuse knapweed. Now let me introduce you to an amazing insect predator.

Knapweed Seed Head Weevils including Larinus minutus are abundant biological control agents that can utilize spotted, diffuse, and squarrose knapweed. Larinus overwinter as adults which emerge in the spring when they begin to feed on knapweed foliage. Females produce between 28 and 130 eggs which they lay in clusters in open flowers. Eggs hatch into larvae which feed on seeds and receptacle tissue for about a month. Larvae construct concoons within the seedheads' wedding pappus hairs and pupate. Emerging adults chew a characteristic round hole in the top of the cocoon that is visible when viewed from above.

As you can see, diffuse knapweed is a pretty robust plant. It prefers dry, arid climates which is why it does so well in Camas County. If you have a concern about an infestation of diffuse knapweed please contact Terry Lee at (208-764-3512)

Facelift in Gooding

Operation Facelift is an annual region-wide community revitalization program sponsored by Southern Idaho Economic Development. Projects can involve community art, helping small businesses beautify their buildings, and placemaking (creating unique public space).

Thanks to generous donations from Glanbia Nutritionals and Tom Woodland, the City of Gooding and the Gooding Chamber of Commerce have received full sponsorship of their Operation Facelift project! Great things happen when communities come together. Keep your eyes open for new flower baskets along Main Street.

The Sound of Freedom

When mainstream media bends over backwards to denigrate the #3 movie of the Fourth of July weekend, it is very likely a movie you should see.

The “Sound of Freedom” is a relatively lowbudget film from independent Angel Studios and is based on the true story of Tim Ballard, a former Department of Homeland Security agent, and his quest to stop child sex traffickers.

The surprising part of this story is not the movie itself, but that the movie has managed to gross nearly as much as the latest Indiana Jones movie at a third fewer theaters. Also surprising is this film was major studio project produced nearly 5 years ago by 20th Century Fox. However, despite being completed and ready for distribution, the new owners of Fox - the Walt Disney Company - refused to release the movie.

Why does the media hate this movie so much? Partly because it talks about the child sex trafficking going on at the U.S. Mexican border, but also because it is a faith-based film. Even so, Critics at Rotten Tomatoes (a popular movie rating website) give it a 76% rating and audiences give it a 99% rating.

While the Sound of Freedom may not be a movie you "enjoy" or want to see more than once, it is important to understand that child trafficking is not some delusional conspiracy theory. Over a million children are trafficked every year worldwide, with nearly 20,000 in the United States. Many of these children are used as cover by the drug cartels to cross international borders and then sold to the highest bidder.

America may be deeply divided in its political opinions, but child trafficking should be one place where we all agree - this is a heinous crime against humanity.

Rena graduated from Richfield High School in 1970 and moved to Tremonton, Utah. Soon afterward she met the love of her life, a United States Naval officer named Terry Lattin. They married December 26, 1970, and proceeded to live at several naval postings up and down the West Coast until Terry retired. During that period, they welcomed their daughter Cheri and son Sean. After Terry’s retirement, they returned to the Magic Valley, building a home and a life in Jerome. They were joined by their son Bryce during this time.

After returning to Idaho, Rena began a career as a dental assistant. She spent many enjoyable years working for Dr. Ron Hendrickson in Jerome. Upon retirement, she and Terry sold their home and traveled the United States in their 5th wheel spending summers in Cascade, and other times wherever they felt like going – the East Coast, Florida, San Diego, Quartzsite, and many points in-between. When they decided to settle down again, they chose Hagerman, Idaho as their home, and cherished their time there.

Rena was a woman full of joy, kindness, and love for her family. She liked many outdoor activities, and in particular enjoyed gardening, fishing, horseback riding, attending family sporting events, pitching horseshoes, and riding behind Terry on his motorcycle. She also spent countless hours playing games with Pinochle being her first, second, and third game of choice. More than anything, Rena treasured her time with her family. She was rarely far from her children, grandchildren, sisters, brothers, or extended relatives.

Rena was preceded in death by her husband, Terrance Lattin; parents, Sterling and Aldean King; sister Loretta Mallea; and brothers, Merlin, Verlyn, and Brent King.

Rena is survived by her children, Cheri (Cam) McKenzie, Sean (Aleah) Lattin, and Bryce (Christy) Lattin; siblings, Boyd King, Dawnetta Tracy, Terry King, Rita Sluder, and Randy King; grandchildren, August (Bri) Kober, Reed McKenzie, Challis (Wyatt) Doyle, Emma Bowman, Dayvree Lattin, Hanna Bowman, Brylon Lattin, and Charlotte Lattin; and great-grandchildren, Isaac, Shiloh, Henry and Georgia Kober, and Stanley Doyle.

The family thanks all the caregivers who aided Rena in recent times and in particular the staff at Chardonnay Assisted Living for their care in her final months.

Service details are pending. Memories and condolences may be shared with the family on Rena’s memorial webpage at www.farnsworthmortuary.com

Joseph Michael Osa, 74, passed away in Portland, Oregon on June 15, 2023. Joseph Michael Osa was born on June 15, 1949, in Wendell, Idaho to Jose Manuel Osa and Lucia Uriaguereca.

Joe was Jose and Lucia's 3rd child with Mary Louise being his oldest sister and Linda Ann being his next eldest sister. Sadly, Linda Ann passed away in 1948, a year before Joe was born.

Joe grew up in Gooding, Idaho where he worked with his Dad on the sheep farm and did what young men do in small towns, got into trouble with his friends. However, Joe was a driven young man and was elected President of his Senior Class.

In 1969, Joe was drafted into the United States Army. He volunteered and qualified for the Airborne and served in Idar Oberstein Germany after training as a chute rigger and also served temporary service in Athens, Greece training the chute riggers of the Greek Airborne. In 1971, Joe was honorably discharged from the Army and went to live with his uncle, Isidro Osa, and his family in Rosario, Argentina for 3 years.

Joe returned to the United States and went to college in Portland, Oregon and eventually became the Vice President of Labor Relations for CenturyLink (now Lumen). In 2016, Joe retired and continued to live in Vancouver, Washington.

In October of 2022, Joe was diagnosed with a glioblastoma brain tumor. A fast growing and aggressive brain cancer. Through all the radiation and chemo treatments, he maintained his faith and prayed often to St. Jude. Joe remained positive and light hearted often showing his quick wit and that sly grin when he caught someone off guard. To some, Joe was a private man. To those that really knew him, he was a perpetual supply of love, kindness, humor and generosity. Joe would always be reading, books everywhere. A gentle giant of a man that could also make you reconsider your life choices if ever in an intellectual challenge. A man of impeccable taste and style, Joe made you look good just by standing next to him. Always the consummate host, he could whip up a few gourmet snacks with perfect wine pairing on a moment's notice. Tio Joe, Uncle Joe, or just Joe. His smile could warm your heart on the coldest of days. Our lives are richer by just having known him.

A memorial graveside will take place on Saturday, July 22, at 2:00 pm at the Elmwood Cemetery in Gooding.
