Steve's Quick Service

Be sure to get proper wood permits. The Forest Service requires permits to cut wood. Look at your maps and be sure not to be cutting on private land (unless otherwise arranged). Forest and private land often run together. A log deck sitting in the woods is usually private or commercial property. These aren't for free-for-all cutting.

Wood trailers may only be used once in a while. Be sure your bearing are maintained as well as trailer brakes. So many trailers have to be left along the side of the road due to poor maintenance. Tires should be at proper inflation, both the trailer and the towing vehicle. Lights should be inspected before loading wood and after (small sticks can pull wiring loose). Wood should be well secured, you don't want to lose any in transit.

Identify the tree specie you are cutting. Some trees such as Tamarack may look dead when they are not. The volume and weight of wood to be hauled varies with the dry condition of the wood. Green wood is obviously heavier.

One should use ethanol-free gas in your chainsaw. Major failures are caused by ethanol in small engines.

Be fire safety cautious. A fire extinguisher should be close by. Shovels are manditory in many places. Inspect your spark arrestor (the screen on the saw muffler). Keep your saw sharp. Dull saws cause extra heat in your chain bar. Don't lay hot saws in dry grass areas. Be sure your trailer chains are not dragging on the road.

Try to avoid leaving widow makers (trees that fall into other trees and not the ground). They put the next guy in danger. If you are falling trees, know where everyone else is. If you are not cutting, stay clear of the falling tree. Vehicles should be parked out of the fall distance too. A wedge may help the fall direction, but it's no guarantee.

Wear appropriate work boots and clothing. Firewood getting is strenuous work. Be sure to take care of your body. DON'T forget... plenty of water.

This is my wood prepared "Cup of Tee."

Dear Gooding School District Students, Staff, Parents and Residents,

On behalf of the Gooding Joint School District, I am pleased to welcome you to the 2023-2024 school year. I hope you had an enjoyable and safe summer break. First and foremost, I am honored and deeply privileged to be serving as Superintendent for the Gooding School District. All of our district staff are looking forward to the beginning of an outstanding school year!

As we start the year, I would like to point out some highlights that have taken place:

• All staff that needed to complete the required State dyslexia training have done so.

• Our elementary staff will continue to focus on behavior and classroom management and will be implementing a new reading curriculum.

• The middle school was recently recognized for their efforts in improving student achievement. www.idahoednews.org has an article describing their journey and the work they have been doing: gooding-teachers-embrace-change-achieve-notable-turnaround

• Gooding High School continues to focus on providing professional technical programs and dual credit opportunities for students. We currently have nine teachers certified to teach concurrent credits and offer sixteen dual credit classes that can be taken by students at the high school. Last year a total of 1,189 dual credits were earned by our students.

• The Gooding Alternative Learning Center graduated 12 students this past spring. What an amazing accomplishment!

Due to the support we received from our community through our plant facility levy, we were able to add to our elementary playground, replace the ceiling tiles in the high school gym and this fall and winter new baskets and an updated HVAC system will be installed. We used federal ESSER money to replace part of the elementary /middle school roof. The middle school playground addition was funded through school improvement money received from the Idaho State Department of Education.

I deeply believe in a quality and comprehensive education for all students. The Gooding School District is known for the positive and healthy relationships between staff and students. Thank you for entrusting all of our dedicated staff with the education of the wonderful young people of our community.

I look forward to the adventure ahead!

With great pride, David Carson

Linda loved every client she had the opportunity to work with. She was a member of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints and had a strong testimony of Jesus Christ and His teachings. Linda also had a love of animals and always had a dog or two at any given time. She found great comfort in always having them by her side and was always found with one while in the community.

Gayle M Garrett

Gayle M (Meservy) Garrett was born June 20, 1935 in a small house approx. 3 miles East of Shoshone, Idaho. She was the oldest of four children born to Hyrum and Vera Meservy who moved to their land in Dietrich to farm.

Gayle spent all her school years in Dietrich and graduated in 1953. While in the 6th grade she met a boy named Frank Garrett who tossed pieces of gravel at her and her friend and she called him "a freckled face little brat". Who would have guessed that they would be married in 1953? They had four children; three sons and one daughter. She was the angel of the home always.

When they were still in their teens, they leased 80 acres in Dietrich and farmed. Gayle kept house in a little 15-foot trailer parked under trees and took care of their first son. She was a great cook and could make a meal out of anything. Frank would bring in a pheasant or rabbit every time he was down irrigating. Frank was hired by the Idaho Transportation Dept in Sept. 1954. They moved into Shoshone and Gayle became a real housewife with a home. They were married 3 years before they could get a vehicle and Gayle would walk uptown with the kids to one of the stores to shop. Gayle took in "babysitting" at home and sometimes had 11 children to care for at a dollar a day each. She also took in ironing for working women. She sewed her kids’ clothes as they were growing up. Frank says that he never ever heard her complain and in their 70 plus years of marriage, he only saw her angry twice, and only one of those was his fault... he only poured some lemonade on her head just before they were going to a dance (they didn't go). In their first three years after Frank went to work for ITD, he was only home for 7 months. She took care of everything. After they bought their first car, she would even drive with the kids up to the construction areas where Frank was working. She worked at Tupperware for 14 years, at the South Side Market (owned by Virginia Larson), Sun Valley Lodge, Hansen’s Dept Store, and Jerome Floral. She was President of the JC-Etts. She has always been active in the Church and fulfilled many callings. She enjoyed working for 8 ½ years in the Boise Temple. Her family and many close friends know that Gayle is, and has been, a Heavenly Angel sent here to teach her family how to love, care for, and guide them on this earth. We love you...Wife, Mother, Grandma, Great Grandma, and Great-Great Grandma. Gayle is survived by her husband, Frank; her children, Frank and Randa Lee Garrett; Vera and Dennis Dooley; Alan and Barbara Garrett; and David Garrett; and her brother, Udell Meservy of St. Albert, Alberta, Canada. She was preceded in death by her parents, Hyrum and Vera Meservy; her sister, Emma Krieger; her brother, John LaVon Meservy; and various nieces and nephews.

A viewing will be held from 5 to 7 p.m. on Friday, August 18, 2023, at the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, Shoshone Ward, Shoshone, Idaho. Funeral service will be held at 11 am, Saturday, August 19, 2023 at the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, Shoshone Ward, with a viewing at 10 a.m. Grave dedication will conclude at Shoshone Cemetery.link at www.demarayfuneralservice.com

Once all the family had grown and made their way north Margarita joined the ever-growing group in the Magic Valley, Idaho where the majority of the family had planted roots. It is where Margarita spent the final years of her life, where she enjoyed being pampered by her children and spending time with her grandchildren and great grand-kids. As we sat together to count heads we gathered 109 total descendants from this union, with 2 on the way! What a legacy...

Margarita is survived by: her daughters - Consuelo Gonzalez of Kimberly, Idaho; Gloria Gonzalez of Wendell, Idaho; Leticia (Letty) and Jose Angel Jimenez of Wendell, Idaho; Olga Gonzalez of Twin Falls, Idaho; Maria Elena (Nena) and Curtis Geiger of Buhl, Idaho; Clara Silvia and Jose Luis Orozco of Gooding, Idaho; her sons - Ramon Gonzalez of Twin Falls, Idaho; Pablo and Cassie Gonzalez of Hollister, Idaho; and Gregorio Jr. and Guadalupe Gonzalez of Guadalupe, Victoria, Baja California, Mexico; plus many many grandchildren and great great grands, wonderful in-laws, nieces and nephews and countless friends.

In the operation of child feeding programs, no child will be discriminated against because of race, sex, color, national origin, age or disability.

Free and reduced-price meals are available for eligible students, and qualifying schools may offer the Special Milk Program. Eligibility is determined by household size and income, and categorically eligible children qualify for free meal benefits. Qualifying students receive meals or milk without charge, or may pay a reduced price of no more than 40 cents for lunch and 30 cents for breakfast.

Children from households whose income is at or below the following levels are eligible for free or reduced-price meals or special milk program if meals are not offered:

INCOME CHART (BEFORE DEDUCTIONS)

Effective July 1, 2023 through June 30, 2024

Children in households receiving Food Stamps or Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP), Temporary Assistance to Families in Idaho (TAFI), or Food Distribution Program on Indian Reservations (FDPIR) are eligible for free meals and may submit applications for these children with abbreviated information. Additionally, Special Supplemental Nutrition Program for Women, Infants and Children (WIC) participants may be eligible for free or reduced-price meals. In August, households receiving SNAP or TAFI benefits will be directly certified to receive free meal or milk benefits by a letter from their school advising them of their eligibility for free meal or milk benefits. No other application or verification of eligibility is required for students directly certified.

When identified, the household will be notified of any child’s eligibility for free meals if the individual child is receiving educational support through migrant, homeless or runaway education, Head Start, or is in court-ordered foster care. Households notified of their children’s eligibility must contact the school if the household chooses to decline the free meal benefits. The household will be notified by the district if the school is operating a Special Provision Option, such as Provision 2 or CEP, which provides free breakfasts and/or lunches to all students.

Households not receiving notification of eligibility for free or reduced priced meals may apply for benefits by completing a confidential application for free or reduced-price meals or free milk. An official at the school will review the confidential application and determine eligibility.

Children in eligible households may receive meal benefits regardless of immigration status, and applications may be submitted anytime during the school year as circumstances change.

Parents or guardians who become unemployed may be eligible for free or reduced-price meals or for free milk during the period of unemployment, provided that the loss of income causes the household income during the period of unemployment to be within the eligibility criteria. Information provided on an application may be verified at any time during the school year. An application cannot be approved unless it contains the following information:

• A Food Stamp, SNAP, or TAFI case number (not Medicaid) for each child or an indication that the household is receiving FDPIR and the signature of an adult household member. OR

• The names of all household members, the amount and source of income received by each household member in the prior month, the signature of an adult household member, the actual number of household members, and the last four digits of the social security number of the adult household member who signs the application (or an indication that the signor has no social security number).

The information on the application may be verified at any time during the school year. Parents or guardians dissatisfied with the ruling of the school official who determines eligibility may discuss the decision with the official. Parents wishing to make a formal appeal may make a written or oral request to the school’s food service hearing officer (contact the school food service office for the name, address, and phone number of the officer) for a hearing on the decision.

This institution is an equal opportunity provider.

Application forms are available to all homes, along with a letter to parents or guardians. To apply for free or reduced price meals, households should fill out the application and return it to the school. Additional copies of the form are available at each school. The information provided on the application will be used for the purpose of determining eligibility and may be verified at any time during the school year by school or other program officials.

Households with any member who is receiving Food Stamps, Temporary Assistance for Families in Idaho (TAFI) or Food Distribution on Indian Reservations (FDPIR) are only required to provide the recipient's name, their food stamp, TAFI or FDPIR case number, the student/s name and an adult signature.

For other applicants, the household must list the names of all household members, all household income with the amount, source and frequency of the income received by each household member. If a household member does not have income, the no income box must be checked. An adult signature is required along with the last 4 digits of the adult's social security number. The signature of the adult household member certifies that the information provided is correct.

You may include all foster children's names on a household application with other non-foster children. Foster children are eligible for school meal benefits. Foster children must be the legal responsibility of the welfare agency or the court.

Students who are homeless, runaway or migrant are also eligible for benefits. Household members do not have to be US citizens for students to qualify for benefits.

Applications may be submitted at any time during the year.

Under the provisions of free-and-reduced-price meal policy the Determining Official will review the applications and determine eligibility. Parents or guardians dissatisfied with the ruling of the official(s) may wish to discuss the decision with the Determining Official(s) on an informal basis. Parents wishing to make a formal appeal may make a request either orally or in writing to the Hearing Official for a hearing on the decision. Jennifer Brown - 610 Solider

Who Sets Fire Restrictions

No one person or agency decides when to go into or out of fire restrictions. It is a decision made collaboratively by the agencies responsible for wildland fire protection within the eight dispatch areas. Key stakeholders include the Idaho Department of Lands, the Bureau of Land Management, the USDA Forest Service, and the Bureau of Indian Affairs/ Tribal representatives.

Fire restrictions impact many facets of land use in Idaho beyond just recreation. This includes forestry operators working in timberland. Fire managers do not take decisions to set or remove restriction lightly.

What Conditions Give Rise to Fire Restrictions

The fire management experts responsible for restrictions consider many different factors, including fire danger rating, fuel moisture measurements, weather outlook, availability of firefighting resources, and whether the number of human-caused wildfires is on the rise.

When the experts determine conditions warrant imposing fire restrictions, the date and time is set for the restrictions to take effect, agencies collaborate on how to notify the public, and a proclamation is signed by the Idaho State Forester, who works for IDL. If conditions rapidly deteriorate, an area can move from no restrictions directly to Stage 2.

When conditions improve, fire managers reduce or entirely remove fire restrictions for an area.
