Every Kid In a Park
The Sawtooth National Forest is proud to help launch the Every Kid in a Park program, as part of President Obama’s commitment to protect our nation’s unique outdoor spaces and ensure that every American has the opportunity to visit and enjoy them. Starting today, fourth graders nationwide can visit the new “Every Kid in a Park” website to obtain a pass that provides free access to students and their families to all federallymanaged lands and waters – including national forests, grasslands, wildlife refuges and waters. The pass is valid for the 2015-2016 school year and grants free entry for fourth graders and three accompanying adults (or an entire car for drive-in parks) at more than 2,000 federallymanaged sites. The Sawtooth National Forest does not charge an entrance fee. However, some developed recreation areas on the Forest charge a day use fee. The Every Kid in a Park Pass covers day use fees on the Forest. Other recreational fees, such as those at campgrounds, are continued on page 7.....

Lincoln County Woman Tests Positive for West Nile
The first confirmed human case of West Nile Virus (WNV) in south central Idaho has been reported. “The female, in her thirties, was hospitalized and is now recovering at home,” said Christi Skuza, South Central Public Health District (SCPHD) Epidemiologist. “This is a great reminder to the public that West Nile is still a concern, so everyone should take extra precautions.” Symptoms of West Nile infection include fever, headaches, body aches, fatigue, nausea, vomiting, and sometimes swollen lymph glands or a skin rash. More severe infections are marked by a rapid onset of a high fever, including headache, body aches, disorientation, neck stiffness, and tremors. Symptoms typically occur 2 to 14 days after the bite of an infected mosquito. The more you’re outdoors, the higher the risk of being bitten by an infected mosquito. Precautions include: Using insect repellent containing an EPA-registered active ingredient, such as DEET (parents are advised not to apply repellant that contains more than 10 percent DEET on their children). Wear long sleeves, pants, and loose-fitting clothing at dawn and dusk when mosquitoes are most active and feeding. If possible, consider staying indoors during these hours. Make sure you have good screens on your windows and doors to keep mosquitoes out. Get rid of mosquito breeding sites by draining standing water from flower pots, buckets, and barrels. Change the water in pet dishes and replace the water in bird baths and feeding troughs, at least twice a week. For more information, visit SCPHD’s website phd5.idaho.gov or visit the Centers for Disease Control & Prevention.

Ileta Harris Riviera
Ileta “Lee” Harris Riviera, 86, of Ketchum, Idaho, passed away September 2, 2015. She was born in Kimball, Nebraska to Henry and Laura Schepler. She grew up on a farm in Pine Bluffs, Wyoming as the youngest of ten girls. After losing her parents at an early age, she went to live with one sister after another. After she graduated high school in Seattle, she went to work for the University of Washington Library where she met Richard Harris. They married July 12, 1947 and had four children. They moved to Mercer Island and had quite the life playing bridge and golf, belonging to Emmanuel Episcopal Church, and raising their children. In 1963 they moved to Las Vegas. Shortly thereafter, Lee started working at the Las Vegas Convention Center as a secretary. By the time she retired in August 1994 she had achieved the title of convention coordinator. She coordinated the move-in, moveout, and a lot in between for some of the biggest conventions in the industry: COMDEX, NAB and CES. She was amazing. She found her niche. Richard Harris died in April 1994 after 30 years of battling Multiple Sclerosis. Lee invited Daniel Riviera to her Las Vegas Convention Center retirement party. He was a longtime friend from her Mercer Island days. Dan and Lee married in Ketchum, Idaho on February 15, 1997. After Dan retired from practicing law in Seattle, they made their home in Ketchum, playing golf, attending golf camps and having fun. Sadly, Parkinson’s disease limited Lee’s life for the past several years. Lee was living at Brookdale Assisted Living in Twin Falls since June 2014. Lee is survived by her husband, Daniel Riviera of Ketchum; son, Steve Harris of Reno, Nevada; daughter, Victoria (Ted) Miller of Fairfield, Idaho; daughter, Diane Dugan of Rapid City, South Dakota; and son, Tim Harris of Bend, Oregon. She is also survived by her grandchildren: David Prell, John Garrett, Danielle Harris, Jamie Harris, David Harris, Jeanine Harris; and two great grandchildren, Skyler and Logan Prell. Lee was preceded in death by her parents; her nine sisters; her husband, Richard Harris; and her grandson, Benjamin Prell. Thank you all for the exceptional kindness shown to Lee these past years. A memorial service will be held at a later date. Cremation arrangements are under the care and direction of Demaray Funeral Service – Gooding Chapel. Condolences, memories and photos may be shared with the family by following the obituary link at www.demarayfuneralservice.com.
Bertha Mae Whitehead
Bertha Mae (Boesiger) Whitehead, 96, a resident of Wendell, formerly of Shoshone, passed away Wednesday, September 2, 2015 at Meridian Care and Rehab in Meridian. Bertha was the second child of Anton and Mary Boesiger, emigrants from Switzerland who homesteaded in northern Shoshone. Bertha attended a one-room country school house and graduated from Shoshone High School in 1936. On June 5, 1936, she married Wilbur Whitehead, a handsome guitar player who came from the Kansas Dust Bowl. They were married 63 years at the time of Wilbur’s passing. They struggled through the depression era with dad working at various jobs to support the growing family. At the start of WWII, they packed up their belongings and three children and headed to Oakland, California to work in the Kaiser Shipyards until the end of the war. They had saved money and came back to Shoshone and purchased a farm northwest of Shoshone. Mom was a hard worker as a housewife, mother, irrigator, cow milker, raising chickens to butcher, selling eggs and raising a large garden, all to help feed the family. In 1960, dad had a debilitating farm accident. Mom went to work at the Shoshone Nursing Home until they purchased the Wendell Motel and Coffee Shop. At the time, she became a cook, waitress and hotel maid, but could always squeeze in a game of Bridge and Gin Rummy. Bertha is survived by her children, Leota Hill, of Eagle, Idaho, Marianna Morris, of Meridian, Idaho, and Gary Whitehead, of Kennewick, Washington; 7 grandchildren; and 6 great-grandchildren. She was preceded in death by her parents, 2 brothers, Max and Gene; 3 sisters, Ida, Louise, and Marie; 1 granddaughter, Debra, and 2 son’s-in-law, Jerry Hill and Jack Morris. A memorial graveside service will be held at 2 p.m. on Friday, September 11, 2015, at the Shoshone Cemetery in Shoshone. In lieu of flowers, the family requests memorial donations in Bertha’s name be made to a charity of the donor’s choice. The family would like to thank Legacy Hospice and Meridian Care and Rehab for their loving care of mom during her last days. The family would also like to send a special thank you to Don and Ruth Wilson, Sally Thompson, Janice Lloyd, and all of mom’s neighbors who helped so much when she was still in Wendell.

Russell Alan McAllister
Russell Alan McAllister, 79, a resident of Hagerman, passed away Wednesday, August 19, 2015 at his home in Hagerman. Russell was born in Minneapolis, Minnesota on January 27, 1936, during a period Parade Magazine called “The grulest winter in Minneapolis.” The temperature dropped to 0 or below every day from January 18th, through Feb. 22, 1936; a record that stands to this day. He was born to James Neil and Gladys Evelyn McAllister. In July, 1953, the family moved to Sacramento, California, where Russell graduated in 1954 from C.K. McClatchy High School; in the same class as Supreme Court Justice Anthony Kennedy. He went to work at S.H. Kress, Sears, before starting his career with the U.S. Post Office in October of 1955. He was later drafted into the Army in 1958. In the Army, Russell was sent to Heilbronn, Germany in 1959, where he became Battalion Mail Clerk. Russell returned home in November 1960, where his mail route was waiting for him. He ended his postal career on a route where he again met up with, and delivered mail to Anthony Kennedy before his Washington, D.C. departure. Russell retired over Labor Day Weekend in 1991. Russell married Patricia A. Reese in December 1965. They were later divorced in December 1991. To this union was born 1 son, Patrick R. McAllister. The following story was told by Russ: “I played golf, and had a widowed retired mailman who I played weekly with who had season tickets to the Oakland A’s. Since his wife had died, he asked me to go to the Memorial Weekend Series in 1992. After the Friday night game, we were clowning around on the shuttle bus back to the hotel, when a voice said ‘quit hitting him.’ My friend looked at me and said ‘do you know her?’ I said ‘no.’ I would find out later that it was De-
nise W. Gould. After the shuttle bus, we headed for the watering hole with Denise and her boss. The bar closed, but we four were allowed to stay and finish our drinks. Her boss and my friend were talking about how much money they had, so I asked Denise if I could sit next to her. She said yes, and it was at that time that the desk clerk was brought in at gunpoint and we were robbed. We always said we met at gunpoint. We have been together ever since.” Denise had gone to school earlier in Hagerman, Idaho, and had siblings there, so in 1995, they came to visit and came down from Bliss, and Russ said it looked nice and pretty. So after her dad died in Feb. 2005, her mother wanted to come back, so in June 2005 they did. Russ was diagnosed with Pulmonary Fibrosis in June 2010. Russ leaves behind a loving wife, Denise; 2 daughters Shelly Rivas, of Sacramento, California; and Winona Bras, of Wilsonville, Oregon a son, Patrick R. McAllister, of DeSoto, Missouri; 2 brothers, James Brian (Esther) McAllister, and Glenn Christian (MaryAnn) McAllister. Russ is also survived by his grandchildren and many cousins, nieces and nephews, especially Stacy Martin. He was preceded in death by his parents; 1 brother, Roger Neil McAllister, and 1 sister, Jeraldine Evelyn Gieger. Funeral services were held on Tuesday, September 8, 2015, at the Hagerman LDS Church. Burial followed at Hagerman Cemetery. In lieu of flowers, the family requests memorial donations in Russ’s name be made to the Russel McAllister Memorial Fund and may be made at any US Bank branch. The family would like to send a special thank you to Alliance Home Health And Hospice, with extra special thanks to Sandy, Shantell and Cindy. The family would also like to thank Dr. Gies, Robert Anderson, PA-C, and all those at Associates In Family Practice in Hagerman.

Letter to the Editor Dear Editor, Thank you for printing my letter. For the past 110 years the Baldwin Family has lived on and maintained this piece of land. For the past 20 years the Marvin France Farm has done the actual planting and harvesting. I commend them for a job well done. However, since I have stewardship of the land if it raises pasture, hay, grain or weeds, ultimately I am the one responsible. I do not take that responsibility lightly. Personally I want to leave it better than I received it. Camas has a long history of excelling. If it takes teamwork to win at football, won’t that same teamwork and tenacity conquer Canada Thistle? God has entrusted You and Me with the stewardship of His land. Let us prove ourselves worthy of that trust. Beulah Baldwin 30 S 300E Fairfield, Idaho The Oregon Short Line Railroad was built as far as the townsite of Blaine (population about 40) in the late fall of 1911. Blaine was in the area where Brincess Blue Ribbon Mine road meets up with Highway 20 (about ten miles east of Fairfield). The mail was picked up there by a horse drawn vehicle and taken to Soldier and Corral. The Hill City post office opened in April 1912.
