Larsen Family Needs Your Help Earlier this year in February, Tanya Larsen of Gooding experienced the worst headache of her life.

“I literally thought I was going to have a heart attack.”

Since then she has suffered daily symptoms of dizziness, fatigue, exhaustion, confusion, weight gain, upset stomach, light sensitivity, temperature sensitivity, and a complete loss of desire to do anything that she once found enjoyable.

The problem: a slow bleeding tumor on her pituitary gland which has damaged the muscles that control vision.

If it is not removed, she will lose her eyesight entirely, and it could kill her. While surgery will not repair the muscle damage, it should eliminate all of the other symptoms.

After meeting her $2500 health insurance deductible, her family sighed a breath of relief and started to prepare for the surgery. Then in May, Tanya received a cancellation notice of her health insurance due to non compliance with “Affordable Care Act” regulations. They were able to obtain new insurance, but now they are faced with another $2500 deductible.

Besides the financial struggle, all of this has taken a toll on the Larsen’s three boys. It is extremely hard for Tanya to interact with her children. “I used to read them stories daily. I haven’t done this since March,” she said. “Our middle son was in kindergarten when I was diagnosed. I wanted to help him with his schooling, but it just hurt too bad.”

To meet the new deductible and other expenses associated the surgery, the Larsen family has set up a fundraising campaign at GoFundMe.com. Just type in “Gooding, Idaho” or “83330” and her campaign will be right on top.

Tanya’s main concern is her family. “I just need this surgery so I can be a mother to my children! So I can be a wife to my husband [Chris] and take care of them.”

...but never Compromising the Truth.

Simpson’s Wilderness Water Bill Signed into Law

Press Release Idaho Wilderness Water Resources Protection Act will authorize water diversions that pre-date Idaho wilderness laws.

Idaho Congressman Mike Simpson expressed great satisfaction at the news that H.R. 876, the Idaho Wilderness Water Resources Protection Act, which he authored, has been signed into law. Simpson first introduced the legislation in 2009, and today it was signed by the president.

The Idaho Wilderness Water Resources Protection Act corrects a long-standing oversight in law by authorizing a number of water diversions within the Frank Church-River of No Return Wilderness Area and the Selway-Bitteroot Wilderness Area in Idaho which existed before the wilderness was created. The new law will enable landowners to do the necessary maintenance and repairs on these diversions.

“I’m so pleased that the Idaho Wilderness Water Resources Protection Act has finally been signed into law,” said Simpson. “I introduced this bill five years ago when the Forest Service discovered that it didn’t have the authority to permit repairs on an historic water diversion in the Frank Church. When we looked into the issue, we learned that a number of pre-existing diversions had been overlooked when the wilderness areas were created. Any one of these diversions could need repairs to maintain integrity and protect the surrounded ecosystem. With enactment of this bill, the necessary maintenance and repairs can now be done.”

VFW Re-Roofing Project

The War Memorial Hall in Gooding is in serious need of re-roofing. The VFW Post 3078 currently has about $5000 for this project, but they need another $17,000 to complete the project. Besides being the meeting place for the VFW, the American Legion Post 30, and the Legion Auxiliary, the Hall is used by the community for blood drawings, exercise classes, a place to vote, as well as other special community events.

The VFW Post 3078 is a 501 C-19 non-profit organization, and as such, any and all donations are tax deductable.

Please make your donation checks payable to: VFW Post 3078 with a memo line of “Re-roofing Project” and mail to: Donald K. Larson, Hall Finance Officer, 1105 California Street, Gooding, ID 83330 (Phone 934-4887). A receipt will be provided to you.

This is a project they would like to complete before the winter weather arrives. So, any monetary support you can give will be greatly appreciated.

...Camas County Fair continued Through all of this and raising six kids, Mr. & Mrs. Marolf have volunteered countless years with the fire department, search & rescue, and the 4-H program (no livestock auction would be complete without Fred in the ring). Be sure to give them a whoop and holler.

Saturday evening starting at 6:00 p.m. enjoy the Main Street Bull Riding and Street dance. You can watch the battle of man and beast for free, but be sure to support the downtown vendors and restaurants.

The American Legion will be serving breakfast on Sunday morning from 8 to 11 at the Legion Hall. From 10:30 to noon, the Lighthouse Church will provide music and inspiration at Church in the Park (bring a chair or a blanket to sit on). Johnny U & Company will wrap-up the fair events on Sunday afternoon with music and a free raffle.

North Canyon Medical Center Takes New Direction With Hospital Philanthropy

Since 1984, North Canyon Medical Center (previously Gooding County Memorial Hospital) and the North Canyon Medical Center Foundation though separate and independent entities, have collaborated on many projects to fund healthcare initiatives in Gooding County. While this relationship has had benefits, NCMC has chosen a new path for hospital philanthropy.

On June 24, 2014 the NCMC Board of Directors voted to develop, like many other community hospitals, an internal hospital philanthropy program that falls under its not-for-profit status and to dissolve its relationship with the external foundation, previously known as NCMC Foundation. “Having worked alongside the independent foundation on fundraising efforts for many years, we have come to recognize that having an independent group raising money on behalf of the hospital was not our most effective option. The independent foundation has utilized the hospital’s name yet the Hospital had no role in governing their actions,” stated NCMC CEO Tim Powers. “Even though the external foundation has had no formal or legal ties to the hospital, the members have worked diligently to raise money to improve patient care.

We are so grateful for their hard work and wish them the best of luck as they continue on their path of philanthropy,” he stated.

The hospital’s internal philanthropy program, Friends of North Canyon Medical Center will follow current best practices in healthcare philanthropy, including estate planning, major gifts, a grateful patient program, as well as general and memorial donations, and will continue coordinating the Tough Enough to Wear Pink event. The Friends of NCMC philanthropy program will operate as a department of NCMC, a 501(c)(3) charitable organization that must meet strict standards regulated by the Internal Revenue Service to maintain that status. The interim director of the program will be Whitney Wines-Johnson.

The Gooding County Fair is fast approaching! Each year during the Gooding County Fair & Rodeo (August 11th thru 16th) the Historical Society has accepted the responsibility of working the Antique Division by checking in the artifacts to be displayed, getting an independent judge for the judging of the artifacts, and arranging the artifacts for display, all before the exhibit opens to the public on Thursday, Friday and Saturday from 10 a.m. to 10 p.m. each day.

Volunteers are needed to “sit” at the fair in 2 hour shifts for Thursday, August 14th. Volunteers don’t have to be Society members to watch over the antiques.

Two other groups sharing the same building will have people to watch things on Friday and Saturday. If you would like to participate this year and be a “Sitter” or would like more information, please contact Louie Bay, Vice President of the GCHS at the Museum at 9345318 or at 536-6575.

Antiques will only be accepted on Monday, August 11th, from 9 a.m. to 9 p.m. at the Gooding Fairgrounds. If you have several entries, PLEASE BRING SOME SMALL RETURN MAILING LABELS WITH YOUR NAME ON THEM TO PUT ON THE ENTRY TAGS. That will save you from writing your name so many times, and it will help the registration process.

Judging will take place on Tuesday, August 12th.

This year there will be a special award for the Best Antique that represents the Military category. This coincides with the theme at the Museum. Also, an award for the Best of Fair Theme “Denim Jeans and Blue Ribbon Dreams” will be awarded.

The Society is planning another great raffle for the fair, so stop by for an opportunity to win some neat prizes. Items will be for sale out of the Museum gift shop as well, including the popular Gooding County Centennial Cookbook. ~~~~~ Work will begin soon on the cement foundation for the Thorn Creek School. Community donations have raised enough money to start the School House Project, and after the foundation is in place they will be submitting grants for some of the school interior and exterior repairs.

On Saturday, August 9th, there will be a book signing at the Museum with author Cate James, author of the new book “Hoof Prints and Sky” from 1 to 3 p.m. For more information sign on to tatepublishing.com The museum will be closed during fair week.
