‘Hidden Gems’ Family Adventure Guides launched

MONKEYBUSINESSIMAGES

Utah State University Extension recently launched the “Hidden Gems” Family Fun Out and About Adventure Guides, created to help strengthen family connections and support positive youth development while helping families have fun exploring the world around them. According to Naomi Brower, USU Extension professor and project lead, playing as a family is not just fun but it is also an investment in your child’s development and in strengthening family relationships. “Research has shown that children who spend time with

their families have fewer behavioral problems, fewer substance abuse and delinquency issues and better academic outcomes,” she said. “Families that spend time together also report feeling happier and more fulfilled.” Brower said the “Hidden Gems” team has worked to include activities in each guide that appeal to a variety of ages and work for different family dynamics, including grandparents and grandchildren. Topics for the Out and About Adventure Guides include Neighborhood Scavenger Hunt, Escape to Nowhere, Silver Lake, SLC, and Ogden Botanical

Sanpete County sends two women to the Miss Utah competition BY KRISTYN BORE

Sanpete County will send two outstanding young ladies, Ally Brotherson, Miss Sanpete County 2019, and Lydia Madsen, Miss Sanpete County 2020, to compete at the Miss Utah Scholarship Competition from June 8 to 12 at the Covey Center for the Arts in Provo. Traditionally, the county only sends one young lady to represent Sanpete County, but due to COVID restrictions, last year’s competition was canceled. Brotherson and Madsen will join 35 other candidates from the state to compete for the job of Miss Utah.

The winner will be a recipient of over $10,000 in scholarships to the school of her choice and sponsorships from a variety of Utah businesses, and will also represent Utah at the 100th Anniversary Miss American Competition later this year. Ally Brotherson, of Mt. Pleasant, will compete as Miss Sanpete County. She is a graduate of Snow College, and will be attending the University of Utah this fall as a Biology major. When she won the title of Miss Sanpete almost two years ago, Ally immediately implemented her So-

cial Impact Initiative and started her preparations for Miss Utah. Although the competition date was put on hold, Ally continued her service to Sanpete County, through her Social Impact Initiative, “Give and Grow.” She has served as a member of the UServeUtah Youth Council under the direction of the Lt. Governor. She has written a monthly service-themed article for the Sanpete Messenger, and has conducted multiple service opportunities in local communities. With an extra year to prepare for the competition, Ally has spent hours at the piano, perfecting her

solo for the talent portion of the competition. “I am most excited for the Talent competition,” said Ally. I have been trained as a classical pianist by Donnell Blakham of Moroni, but I am pushing us both out of our comfort zones and will be playing a contemporary piece.” Ally is also looking forward to the Show Me Your Shoes Parade. The parade is the opening event that kicks off the week-long competition, where each candidate wears a unique pair of shoes that usually have some significance

Gardens. In addition are topics for road trips — Park Scavenger Hunt, Crazy Questions and Twisted Alphabet. “We would love to get these new guides into homes this summer,” she said. “Enjoying the fun activities together would be a great way to bring families closer after experiencing such a stressful year.” In addition to the Family Fun Out and About Adventure Guides are the Family Fun at Home Adventure Guides and Date Your Mate Adventure Guides. All are available for free download at hiddengems.usu.edu.

Richard Hiltbrunn December 1958 — June 2021

Richard Hiltbrunn (62) of Fountain Green, lost his life in a tragic drowning accident during his regular morning swim. He is deeply mourned by Paola, his wife of 33 years, as well as their 10 children, and 17 grandchildren. He loved swimming and enjoyed entertaining the lifeguards with his youthful pool antics. Richard was so pleased that Paola would often accompany him for this exercise. Richard was born in Tacoma Washington to his adoptive parents JoAnn and Richard Hiltbrunn Sr. Richard Sr. was plagued by post-traumatic stress as a result of his service in WWII. This created a difficult childhood for Richard which he covered with a tough facade. A high school friend saw through this to Richard’s tender heart and shared the Gospel with him. He immediately felt it was true and never looked back. Despite opposition from his family, he served a mission and afterwards moved to Provo to attend BYU. Richard and Paola met in the Celestial room of the Provo temple. Afterwards, Richard asked Paola out on a double date for Chinese food and two short weeks later he got down on one knee at a Chinese grocery store and asked her to marry him. Without hesitation Paola said yes, and they married

a few months later at that same Provo temple. Paola knew that Richard loved God more than he loved her, and that is just the way she wanted it to be. Throughout their marriage, Paola was playfully annoyed by the permanent stack of books next to their bed. Richard worked for the State of Utah as a Computer Technician and loved computers, but anyone who knew him, knew that his interests and love of learning extended far beyond the sphere of his occupation. His curiosity about the world was endless! Richard had a way of explaining things to anyone so they could understand. He conversed comfortably with everyone, from professors to mechanics, always as equals. Richard had a smile on his face and radiated love

to everyone he met. He enjoyed serving and talking with family, neighbors, and strangers for hours. He never hesitated to help when someone was in need. Even if he didn’t have a lot to give, he would give everything, without regard for his own well-being. As newly married students, the couple always managed to find “extra” cash in their budget to help others. Throughout their marriage, Richard would convince Paola to make treats as an excuse to visit people he thought could use some company. Richard absolutely loved spending time with his family, cracking dad jokes every chance he could. His children were always happy when daddy was home. Even as teenagers (and adults) the kids called him when they needed a sympathetic ear. They knew their dad was present in the moment when he was with them. Richard was a firm foundation for his family and his solid presence will be forever missed. Later in life Richard connected with his biological family. They are grateful for the opportunity to know him, and Richard enjoyed learning about the familiar traits they all shared. These new relationships filled a hole in Richard’s life, and he felt complete and at peace, knowing where he came from and that there were

many family members who loved him. As Richard’s family mourns his passing, they will miss the silly nicknames he had for all of them and the way he turned even difficult situations into an opportunity for fun. Richard was preceded in death by both his adoptive and biological parents and his younger brother Tom. He is survived by his Wife Paola and children, Seffora, Jessica, Thomas, Vittoria, Poala, Marah, Michael, Angela, Joshua and Richard as well as his 17 grandchildren. Funeral Services will be held on Monday, June 7th at 11:00am at the Fountain Green LDS Chapel located at 151 S. 200 W. Fountain Green. Friends and family are invited to call at a viewing Sunday evening from 6-8pm and Monday morning 9:30-10:30 held at the church prior to the services. Interment to follow at the Fountain Green cemetery. Richard’s family and friends are devastated by this unexpected loss. They appreciate your thoughts and prayers. To contribute to the costs of Richard’s funeral or to support his family as they deal with the loss of their husband, father, and sole provider, donations may be made to a Go Fund Me created for them https:// gofund.me/cbce0f9f.

ASK AN EXPERT

Take steps to prevent wildfire destruction BY MICHAEL KUHNS

USU Extension forestry specialist

Recent drought concerns in Utah have prompted Gov. Spencer Cox to issue an executive order declaring a state of emergency. To date, 100% of Utah is in the moderate drought category, and 90% of the state is experiencing extreme drought. Along with drought comes the dangers of wildfires, the hazards of suppressing them and the risks firefighters take to protect life and property. Property owners can assist firefighters and improve their own safety by preparing their structures and landscaping for the possibility of a wildfire. The likelihood of a home burning is directly related to the amount of flammable material near it. The home and landscape near it are called the home ignition zone. A few hours of light-duty yard work are well worth the effort to protect this area. Consider the following tips. Replace wood roofs with fire-resistant roofing material. Enclose the eaves with soffits and screen openings with 1/8” galvanized mesh. This will reduce the chances that blowing embers could start a fire in an attic space. During a fire, burning embers land in some of the same places that collect

A few hours of light-duty yard work are well worth the effort to protect this area. leaves, needles and other debris, so it is important to regularly clear debris from roof valleys, gutters and deck corners. Remove debris from the yard and mow, irrigate and prune. The first 3 to 5 feet from the home should be a no-burn zone consisting of pavers, concrete or small, succulent plants. This is a good place for a sidewalk, patio or driveway to butt up against the house. From there to approximately 60 feet out is the most critical area of the landscape where trees should be thinned and pruned, with no shrubs underneath to carry fire into their crowns. This mid-zone should be your irrigated landscape. Mowed, green grass works well, along with manicured beds of herbaceous perennials. Maintenance is key here; a plant that is maintained

may be firewise, while one that is not may be a hazard. From 60 to 100 feet out, the landscape should be clean and green, with dead leaves, needles and twigs removed. There should be few trees and shrubs in this zone, and trees should be pruned. To be effective, maintenance must be done on a regular basis, depending on the type and amount of vegetation. Select appropriate species to grow in the home ignition zone. Evergreens and scrub oaks tend to be highly flammable, while aspen and most broad-leaved trees and shrubs are less flammable. Plants that are green and moist during the hottest, driest part of the year are best. The wildlands beyond 100 feet should be thinned, and brush should not be dumped there.

100 feet or more from their home, but a plan can still be in place. Contact your neighbors and talk with them about safety and what you can do together. This includes individual neighbors, but may also include government neighbors like the U.S. Forest Service or the Bureau of Land Management. Keep firewood, construction material and other flammable items at least 30 feet from your home. Be sure propane tanks are located at least 100 feet from any structure, and clear the vegetation 10 feet around them. Make sure emergency personnel can easily locate and identify your home. Be sure house numbers are clearly marked and visible Your driveway needs to be wide and clear so firefighters can enter in an emergency, and they will need enough overhead and turnaround space to get in and out with equipment. Take the time to protect your home. Homes that do not meet these minimum specifications are less likely to receive full consideration by firefighters since they pose an unnecessary risk to their safety and equipment.

Honoring the Flag

his coming Monday, June 14th, is Flag Day. It’s the day that celebrates the adoption of our flag in the United States. That happened in 1777. Flag Day is not a federal holiday; so it’s not a day off (when it falls on a weekday); but it’s a day to honor the flag. I gather that it is a state holiday in Pennsylvania. We’re in that time of year when we seem to have many events that bring our flag to the forefront. From Memorial Day and on through Flag Day and Independence Day and even Pioneer Day in Utah, the flag is prominent. Manti had flags flying on Main Street last weekend during the Rat Fink Reunion event which drew hundreds to Sanpete. When you stop and think about it, every day of the year is really a “flag day” because we see our stars and stripes flown nearly every day. When we go past the post office, the courthouse, or other government buildings we see our flag. Many of our Sanpete towns have flags flying at their entrances. There are individuals who fly the flag everyday at their homes. I have a few neighbors who have their own private flagpoles outfitted with spotlights. They have special feelings of patriotism for the flag and what it symbolizes. I have read the book “Flags of our Fathers” by James Bradley. He is the son of one of the marines in the famous World War II photograph of the raising of the flag on the Pacific island of Iwo Jima. He has researched the lives of each of the “flag raisers” and tells their personal stories and the general story of the war in the Pacific. I recommend the book. The book was made into a movie by Clint Eastwood. (Rated R for graphic war violence/language, etc.) The book really shows the human side of the involvement of these young men in the war and their commitment to their country and its flag.

to her hometown or area she represents, or of personal significance. Ally will show off a custom pair of boots that are Snow College themed. Lydia Madsen, of Fairview, will compete at Miss Utah as Miss Skyline. She is a Senior at Southern Utah University, majoring in business. Lydia’s most favorite portion of competition is the personal interview. “I love interviewing because it gives me a chance to meet with the judges one-on-one and really express who I am,” said Madsen. “You can only learn so much about someone from seeing them onstage, so the opportunity to have an actual conversation is everything.” One of the topics Lydia is prepared to discuss with the judges is her Social Impact Initiative, “Lend-A-Hand,” which focuses on uniting our communities through service. During her year of service Lydia started a service club Sanpete’s Hands, volunteered at the Sanpete Pantry and the

There are some good quotes in the book too. I liked this one from General George Patton: “No one ever won a war by dying for their country. They won by making the other s.o.b. die for his.” (He had a way with words, didn’t he?) Another from Thomas Paine: “Those who expect to reap the blessings of liberty must undergo the fatigues of supporting it.” I often feel my heart swell as flags go by in the holiday parades of this season. Sanpete is a place where nearly 100% of people know how to pause, remove their hats and salute the flag. Kids are taught by parents and grandparents how to respect the flag. I’m proud of our National Guard units which often provides the color guards for those parades. I hate that we have to send our young military people around the world to be involved in wars and trouble spots. But at the same time, I’m glad that we have a country that is prepared militarily and has a commitment to serve when called to action. All politics aside, our troops deserve our unwavering support and prayers. If you know anyone serving in the military away from home, be a letter writer. They may not have time to respond to all their mail, but they’ll appreciate being remembered. Before leaving home to go back to war, one of the Iwo Jima flag raisers, Mike Strank, urged his elevenyear-old sister Mary to “keep those letters coming. You might not get an answer, but keep ‘em coming” His family had emigrated from Czechoslovakia and his parents were still awkward with writing in English. After that goodbye, Mary never saw her brother again. Pay particular attention to our high-flying flags especially during this time year. Sanpete knows how to honor the flag. Let’s keep up the good work. — Merrill

Resource Clothing Bank. She has made blankets to be donated to hospitals, partnered with Hope for the Homeless, and sponsored a charity 5K run among other service opportunities through Sanpete County. Lydia is also looking forward to the Show Me Your Shoes parade. “It’s a fun opportunity to be with everybody and show a little bit of your personality. I’m excited for everyone to see what I have come up with.” The Miss Utah Competition celebrates achievement in scholarship, service, style and success. “Sanpete County will be represented well this year at the Miss Utah Competition,” said Abby Ivory, director of the Miss Sanpete County organization. “Both Ally and Lydia have dedicated untold hours to prepare for this moment. Each is talented and smart. They are successful in the classroom and have served Sanpete with heart and dedication. As a board, we are so proud and are excited for them to have this experience and compete for the job of Miss Utah. They will represent our county with class all the way.”

PUBLIC NOTICE

Notice is hereby given that on the 17th day of June 2021 at 10:00 A.M. at the West Lobby of the Sanpete County Courthouse, Manti City, Sanpete County, Utah, the Sanpete County Auditor, Stacey Ann Lyon, will offer for sale at public auction and sell to the highest bidder for cash, under the provisions of section 59-2-1351 and 59-2-1351.1 Utah Code, the following described real property, located in said county and now five years delinquent and subject to tax sale. A bid for less than the total amount of taxes, interest, penalty and administrative costs, which are a charge upon said real estate will not be accepted.

METHOD OF SALE

The Board of County Commissioners of Sanpete County has determined the following method of sale best meets the objectives of protecting the financial interests of the delinquent property owner and collecting delinquent property taxes due: The highest bid amount for the entire parcel of property. However, a bid may not be accepted for an amount which is insufficient to pay the taxes, penalties, interest and administrative costs. Any amount received in excess of the delinquent taxes, penalties and interest due to all local governments, and any administrative costs by the County, shall be treated as unclaimed property and paid to the State Treasurer’s Office, pursuant to Title 67, Chapter 4a of the Utah Unclaimed Property Act.

SANPETE COUNTY TAX SALE RULES

1. The County Auditor will state the amount of taxes, penalties, interest, and administrative costs on the parcel being offered for sale, which is the amount at which bidding will begin and the lowest acceptable bid.

2. Upon receipt of a bid sufficient to pay the taxes, penalties, interest, and administrative costs on the parcel, higher bids shall be solicited. The bid received in the highest dollar amount, when no higher bids are tendered upon request by the County Auditor, shall be the bid accepted (if such bid is otherwise acceptable under these rules). 3. Property having title deficiencies, description deficiencies, or other deficiencies may be withdrawn from a tax sale. Property withdrawn from a tax sale may be re-certified to a subsequent year’s tax sale after the reasons for the withdrawal have been resolved. Re-certification must be approved/ratified by the Board of Commissioners. 4. A property determined to be a public street, road, canal, or other property subject to public use, based on the records of the County Recorder and/or a physical on-site inspection, will be struck from the sale in the name of Sanpete County. 5. Any property offered for sale for which there is no purchaser or which is not otherwise acceptable under these rules shall be struck off to Sanpete County by the County Auditor, and fee simple title to the property shall then be vested in Sanpete County. 6. Only cash, certified funds, or personal checks will be accepted in payment for property. Payment is due, and shall be made to the County Treasurer. After the conclusion of the bidding for the delinquent parcels of property included in the annual real property tax sale, the sale will be adjourned for a 30 minute recess, during which time all payments for parcels of property purchased at the tax sale shall be made to the Sanpete County Treasurer. Any parcels of property which have not been paid for at the conclusion of the recess period will be re-auctioned. At the re-auction no bids will be accepted from any bidder who failed to pay any bid. If no bid is received at the re-auction for the parcel of property, the Board of County Commissioners may enforce the original accepted bid. Any individual who is a successful bidder for a parcel of property included in the annual real property tax sale and who fails to pay for said parcel of property, will be barred as a bidder in the tax sale the following year. 7. A property owner or lien holder CANNOT better his or her position by purchasing at the tax sale. This includes having family, friends, or associates buying the property and quit claiming it back to the owner. Therefore, if a lien holder, associate, or the owner pays the tax at the sale it will be considered a redemption rather than a tax sale. The County Auditor reserves the right to prevent bidders from participating in the auction or accept bids from bidders that he/she has reason to believe may be attempting to violate this ordinance. This includes prevent a winning bidder from paying a winning bid to the Treasurer on the day of the sale and/or not allowing the bid to be ratified by the Sanpete County Commission after the sale. 8. A bidder shall preregister in person, prior to 9:55 A.M. on day of sale, and be given a number for bidding purposes.

Individual bidder shall mean a corporation, partnership, trustees of a trust, or proprietorship duly registered, or licensed, in the State of Utah, or a natural person or husband and wife. C. A bidder must register the name under which he/she will bid in the sale and each bidder will be limited to registering and bidding under one name only. 9.

One deed, and only one deed, will be issued to the successful bidder on parcels sold.

10.

The bidder first recognized by the County Auditor will be the first bid recorded, etc. As in any auction, the bid recognized is the one in effect at the time.

11.

Collusive bidding will be strictly prohibited.

12. Loud whispering, yelling, cell phone ringing, or talking, other than the bids, must be avoided so that accurate records may be kept of the proceedings of the sale. At any time, the County Auditor may excuse a bidder for this reason. 13.

The final bid number announced by the County Auditor is the official sale, and the bidders previously registered name and address will be the name that will go on the deed.

14. All bids shall be considered conditional dependent on whether or not the bid is contested, until reviewed, and accepted, by the Board of County Commissioners, acting at a regular scheduled meeting. 15.

The Board of County Commissioners may reject any and all bids on the ground that none is acceptable. Should a bid be rejected, all funds accepted for the concerned parcel will be refunded.

16. Once the County Auditor has closed the sale of a particular parcel of property as a result of accepting a bid on said parcel, the successful bidder, or purchaser of the property, may not unilaterally rescind the bid. The county legislative body, after acceptance of a bid, may enforce the terms of the bid by obtaining a legal judgement against the purchaser in the amount of the bid, plus interest and attorney’s fees. 17.

A fee in the amount of $400.00 will be assessed on each parcel for ‘administrative costs.’

18.

Any person wishing to contest any action taken in connection with the Tax Sale must present such protest in writing to the Sanpete County Commission by 9 a.m. on Thursday, July 1, 2021.

19.

The period to redeem property prior to closing of the books and beginning of the Tax Sale shall end on Thursday, June 17, 2021 at 9:45A.M.

20.

The bidder on any parcel of property may be subject to a roll back tax under the provisions of “THE FARMLAND ASSESSMENT ACT”, Utah Code Sections 59-2-501 thru 59-2-515.

21.

A copy of the Tax Sale rules may be obtained in the office of the Sanpete County Auditor, Sanpete County Courthouse, 160 North Main Ste 207, Manti, Utah 84642, or online at sanpete.com/auditor

USU Extension releases pocket vegetable gardening guide BY JULENE REESE

USU Extension

Utah State University Extension recently released “The Pocket Gardener — A Quick Reference Guide to Planting, Growing, and Harvesting Vegetables.” The guide can be found at pocketgardener.usu. edu. Sheriden Hansen, Utah State University Extension horticulturist and one of three authors for the guide, said it was designed to provide information for gardeners when they are outside planting and working in the garden. “With the increased number of new gardeners due to COVID-19, we saw a need for accessible, basic information that would be quick and easy to find,” she said. “It’s like

The Best Guess: Asking Life’s Big Questions in an Age of Unlimited Answers is Sam Wittke's first published work. It challenges readers to think through the obstacles of keeping the Christian faith relevant in this modern day by examining over 20 different evidences for Christianity with a unique perspective. Wittke says he hopes this book will help readers begin their own search to understand that God’s Word is still the most sensible lens for interpreting reality. He urges readers to engage with scripture and recognize its reassuring authority. Sam Wittke grew up in Big Cottonwood Canyon, Utah. His love of writing led him to the University of Utah where he studied literature and film, earning a degree in English. He’s now an aspiring Christian apologist and theologian with a love of Utah and the mountains.

The Best Guess is now available on Amazon and Westbow Press.

One of our favorite parts of our test drive was the way the front seating wrapped itself into the entire dashboard, drawing us in each time we were in the SUV. The door panels were curved and flowed seamlessly into the dashboard, with the 8.8-inch infotainment screen slightly angled toward the driver to make sure it was easy to read and understand. The center console consisted of a shifter, controls for the infotainment through a rotary dial along with cup holders that all seemed to be placed in the perfect position for us to reach. Getting used to the Mazda control for the infotainment screen took us a couple of days, but after that it became second nature to use.
