Watch for Runners & Hwy 12 Road Restrictions This Saturday

Let’s All Gear Up for the Tour of Utah ESCALANTE - The town of Escalante is gearing up for the 2013 Larry H. Miller Tour of Utah, coming through our town on August 7, 2013. The Escalante Tour committee is planning some exciting activities to welcome visitors, cyclists, support staff, and Fox Sports to our beautiful part of the world. Escalante is beginning its celebration of the Tour on August 6 with a Sierra Nevada beer garden and Brat dinner at Escalante Outfitters, 310 W. Main. Sierra Nevada Brewery is one of the sponsors of the Tour of Utah and the Potato Valley Lions Club will be grilling up some Bratwursts for the crowd. Along with food and beer we will all be entertained by the band Haywire.

On Thursday, August 7, Garfield Memorial Hospital will conduct a Health and Safety Fair at the Escalante High School parking lot. All youngsters are invited to bring their bikes for a bike rodeo.

We will be checking tires, playing games, and every child who attends will receive a free bike helmet. After the the bike rodeo the kids can watch the professional riders race down Highway 12.

Our local Tour of Utah Committee is asking all of our farmers to bring out their tractors and farm equipment to line the city streets to welcome everyone to our community.

“Tour of Escalante” Tshirts will be sold at the Pioneer Day Festival.

Deemed “America’s Toughest Stage Race,” the Larry H. Miller Tour of Utah is a weeklong, professional stage race for the best cycling teams in the world, and is the first week-long major stage race in North America following the Tour de France.

A total of 16 professional cycling teams will compete in

this year’s Tour. An additional six teams were announced on June 24 by race organizers.

The first 10 teams to accept invitations were announced earlier this spring. Each team is expected to confirm its final roster of riders at the end of July.

The final field represents teams registered from seven countries on four continents – Australia, Brazil, China, Italy, Luxembourg, South Africa and the United States.

“The field for this year’s Tour is outstanding with professional teams coming from across the globe to compete on Utah’s scenic byways,” said Steve Miller, president of Miller Sports Properties which organizes the Tour of Utah. “For cycling fans traveling to Utah, the race is a great opportunity to witness the speed, strength and skills of the riders from the best domestic squads, as well as the international teams we typically watch on television.”

Now in its ninth year of racing, the 2013 Tour of Utah will include some of the state’s most beautiful and challenging terrain with lush forests and red rock spires in the south and the urban corridor and epic peaks along Wasatch Range of the Rocky Mountains in the north. The 2013 race will cover a record 586 miles and more than 43,000 vertical feet of climbing. The Tour of Utah is scheduled to take place August 6-11, 2013, as a UCI 2.1-rated stage race. A team presentation event will be held on August 5 in Cedar City.

Let’s all get into this event, over 93 million people will be seeing our town on Fox Sports Network. The complete schedule of events will be posted around town and in the newspaper as soon as everything is finalized.

Escalante city mayor Jerry Taylor and city council member Melani Torgersen officiated during ribbon cutting ceremonies for Escalante’s new play ground, at the city park last Thursday.

A Place to Play

ESCALANTE - On Thursday, July 4, kids of all ages were treated to a citysponsored barbecue, potluck and opening ceremonies for Escalante’s newest—and possibly most important—piece of city infrastructure, a new playground.

The playground, just installed in Escalante’s downtown city park, includes a unified structure of walkways, slides, logs that you can crawl through (if you’re small enough) some monkey bars (do they still call them that?) and, befitting our modern adventure sports culture, a miniature climbing wall is included.

Better yet, and thanks to a special donation, the collection of playground equipment

is topped off by a really decent swingset.

City Mayor Jerry Taylor and Council Member Melani Torgersen led the ribbon cutting ceremonies, which officially opened the park, though the younger kids couldn’t see any point in waiting around for the grown ups to finish their hamburgers before thoroughly trying out the goods.

“This park is for everybody,” said Mayor Taylor, during a brief set of remarks as Torgersen cut the ribbon.

Torgersen, who serves as the city representative for the parks, says the process started about 18 months ago, when a group of young mothers spearheaded some fundraising activities for new playground equipment. Led by

Mindy Peterson, Cassie Lyman, Heidi Shakespeare and Ashley Chidester, the young moms held fundraising dinners and put donation jars out at local businesses and offered fundraising phone cards. Torgersen says she looked through tons of magazines and books on equipment, and the group ended up selecting equipment made by Big T Recreation.

“Big T came here and met with us. They were willing to sit down with us and go over our budget and what to expect, and they were great to communicate with on the phone,” says Torgersen. “They also helped us get the look that we were after—rather than neon A Place to Play cont’d on page 2

Red Cross Issues Emergency Call for Blood and Platelet Donors Blood donations down about 10 percent in June

Salt Lake City – The American Red Cross issued an emergency request on July 9 for platelet and blood donors of all blood types to roll up a sleeve and give because many fewer donations than expected were received in June and the first week of July.

“We are counting on generous volunteer blood and platelet donors to step up and give now,” said Julia Wulf, chief executive officer for the Red Cross Blood Services Region. “Every two seconds, someone in the U.S. needs blood. Each day donations come up short, less blood is available for these patients in need.”

Nationwide, donations through the Red Cross were down approximately 10 percent in June, resulting in about 50,000 fewer donations than expected. The shortfall is similar to what the Red Cross experienced in June 2012.

June can be among the most challenging months of the year for blood and platelet donations as regular donors delay giving while they

adjust to summer schedules.

High school and college blood drives account for as much as 20 percent of Red Cross donations during the school year.

Donations from those who usually give at these drives drop by more than 80 percent when school is out for the summer. In addition, a mid-week Independence Day holiday reduced the number of blood drives scheduled in early July. Many sponsors, especially businesses, were unable to host drives because employees took extended vacations.

The Red Cross urgently needs donations to ensure an adequate blood supply is available for patients all summer long. Each day, the Red Cross needs approximately 440 donors in Utah to step forward and give blood. Eligible donors with types O negative, B negative and A negative blood are especially encouraged to give. Type O negative is the universal blood type and can be transfused to anyone who needs blood. Types A negative and B negative can be transfused to Rh positive or

negative patients.

There is also an urgent need for platelet donations.

Platelets – a key clotting component of blood often needed by cancer patients - must be transfused within five days of donation, so it’s important to have a steady supply of platelets on hand.

How to Donate Blood Simply call 1-800-RED CROSS (1-800-733-2767) or visit redcrossblood.org to make an appointment or for more information. All blood types are needed to ensure a reliable supply for patients. A blood donor card or driver’s license, or two other forms of identification are required at check-in. Individuals who are 17 years of age (16 with parental permission in some states), weigh at least 110 pounds and are in generally good health may be eligible to donate blood. High school students and other donors 18 years of age and younger also have to meet certain height and weight requirements.

“It was also quite a process because the project also has to fit the city’s liability insurance,” she added.

The entire project cost about $50,000.

Torgersen says that Garfield County, South Central Communications and Amazon’s Community Rewards program and several other large donors came through to make it happen. But she says it was the local support and volunteerism that kept the momentum for the project going, and the city crew was instrumental in stepping forward to support the installation and make the project go smoothly.

“The kids have been so excited…there have been tons of kids playing there already.

And we even had a family reunion there at the park on Saturday,” adds Torgersen.

The city plans to add a few more elements to the project, including three benches and another picnic table that is closer to the playground. Torgersen says she’d also love to get a “puddle pad” which she describes as

and Internal Revenue Service data to deliver its findings.

About half of the states also have a state Earned Income Tax Credit, although the Utah Legislature has resisted creating one despite multiple attempts. It would have been a fraction of the federal credit and would have cost an estimated $22 million a year.

Lawmakers decided the state can’t find the money; Gruber says they didn’t see the local economic benefits.

“People who receive the Earned Income Tax Credit are working hard every day,” she said. “They quickly spend those credits in our communities, and that helps not only the family receiving the Earned Income Tax Credit but also the Utah economy.”

According to the report, the federal EITC keeps more than 140,000 families nationwide from falling below the poverty line and reduces the severity of poverty for another 800,000 members of military families.

Report: Military Families Need Tax Credits for “Independence” SALT LAKE CITY - As the nation gears up to celebrate Independence Day, some of those who have fought hard to defend it also fight to stay afloat financially.

A new national report focuses on the importance of the federal Earned Income Tax Credit and Child Tax Credit to military families, concluding that they make a big difference for 1.5 million families across the nation.

Tracy Gruber, policy analyst for Voices for Utah Children, pointed out that paychecks are modest for most enlisted personnel, and said she thinks a break on their taxes is the least the nation can do.

“That’s a special kind of sacrifice,” she said, “and fortunately, the Earned Income Tax Credit and the Child Tax Credit are helping fill that gap for them and keep those families, in large numbers, out of poverty - including the 13,000 families in Utah.”

Gruber said it’s important to note that people only can benefit from these tax credits if they are working.

Seat Belts. Really!

Terry C. Smith, Rural Utah Traffic Coordinator Utah Highway Safety Office

It is a proven fact that seat belts save lives every day. So why then is it so hard for some drivers to buckle up?

We read news articles on crashes and see them on the news with the same result.

People buckled get treated and released from the hospital and those not buckled are flown to a major trauma center or fatally injured.

Let’s talk about some of the myths concerning seat belts: Myth: Your seat belt can hurt you in a crash.

In a crash, everything in your car can cause you harm.

However, your seat belt is one of the few things that can actually save you. It can, however, hurt your children if they are too small for the seat belt. If they cannot sit all the way back in the seat with their legs bending comfortably over the seat with their feet flat on the floor, the seat belt will not fit properly. They will slouch down, causing the lap belt to rise onto their belly and that can cause severe injuries in a crash.

Myth: Seat belts can trap you in a fire or underwater.

Crashes involving fire and water account for one-half of one percent of all crashes. But more importantly, you can’t escape such dangers unless you are conscious. Wearing a seat belt gives you a greater chance of being conscious and ablebodied.

Myth: Just being in a pickup truck makes you safer than everyone else.

Pickup trucks and SUV’s can roll just as easily as cars, and in some cases, pickups with lift kits can roll easier than

a car. Seat belts reduce risk of fatal injury by 60%.

Myth: If you’re not going far or traveling fast, seat belts aren’t necessary. Seemingly routine trips can be deceptively dangerous. Most fatal crashes happen within 25 miles from home at speeds of less than 40 miles per hour.

Myth: It’s not essential for guys to wear seat belts; they’re much better drivers, right?

Young men are most at risk. Among passenger vehicle occupants, men ages 18-34 who were killed in fatal crashes, 66% were not buckled.

That’s higher than any other age group.

Bottom line – not wearing a seat belt may result in you being ejected in a crash. Seventy-seven percent of passenger vehicle occupants who were ejected from their vehicle were fatally injured. Let’s say you are one of the lucky ones and not fatally injured. You are 14 times more likely to suffer a spinal injury and, as I recall, there isn’t a repair kit for that yet.

One last thought. Let’s say you make sure your children are buckled, but you don’t. First off, you are not being a very good example, but what I really want you to think about is, even if you are the world’s safest driver you can still be in a crash caused by other drivers. If your car rolls at 60 or 70 mph, your body will bounce around in the cab at that speed, injuring your passengers before you are ejected.

Wearing a seat belt is one of the easiest and safest things drivers and passengers can do.

Think about it!

A New Idea to Eliminate Student Debt Gains Traction

Could Utah Get Behind the “Pay It Forward” Plan?

SALT LAKE CITY State cuts in education funding and sharp hikes in tuition in Utah could make a new idea for funding college without student loans worth a look.

In the “Pay It Forward, Pay It Back” plan, a student attends college tuition-free - with a contract to pay a small percentage of their wages for up to 25 years after college into a fund for other students to also attend tuition-free.

The idea was proposed by the Economic Opportunity Institute, Seattle. Executive Director John Burbank has been asked to present it to groups across the country as an alternative to mountains of student debt.

“It’s a psychological as well as a financial barrier,” he said, “and this pretty much demolishes those barriers and opens up higher education for all qualified Americans. That’s pretty exciting, and we are really excited that this has gained such interest.”

The toughest challenge is coming up with the seed money for the first generation of “Pay It Forward” students - after that, the plan becomes self-financing, Burbank said.

This month, Oregon became the first state to pass a bill to create a pilot program.

The Oregon Working Families Party helped keep the momentum going for that state’s legislation (HB 3472). Campaign manager Sami Alloy was inspired by an image she saw on the Internet.

“It was a graffiti somebody had written that said, ‘What if the cure for cancer lies inside the brain of someone who can’t afford college?’

I think about that all the time,” she said. “Young people are doing worse than their parents did because of the enormous burden of student debt and the unaffordability of higher education.”

College tuition hikes and the recent failure of Congress to stop the interest rate increase on student loans will mean other states will soon consider “Pay It Forward” college funding, Alloy predicts.

A report out this spring said Utah college students pay on average about $1,100 more per year for school than they did at the start of the recession.

Un-EARTH a Good Book “Un-EARTH a good BOOK” was the theme of the final Utah State Library - Tri-County Bookmobile summer reading program on Tuesday, July 2. We split the children up into four groups and rotated to some very fun activities. Jackson Excavation stepped up to make this final program a great success. They brought their big equipment with sawdust in two the the buckets filled to the brim with prizes for the children to “un-earth”!

Jackson Excavation also brought props to do a fun construction relay race that had the kids donning construction clothing, running, shoveling and filling buckets. Paula Pace read some fun construction books as the children ate mud, dirt and worms (chocolate pudding, crushed cookies and gummy worms). Madison Davis spent hours preparing this special treat for the children and we want to thank her for all her help this year. Then the children were off for some fun with hopscotch, chalk art and spinning tops. We took photos of some of the children on the big equipment which is posted on our FaceBook page. Jackson Excavation bought a LOT of prizes for each child and they also went home with a frisbee that has our summer reading theme logo on it.

Amy Jackson went the extra mile in helping our library, the children and the community with this final summer reading program and we cannot thank her or Jackson Excavation enough.

To make any program successful, it takes a lot of helping hands and this is one thing about this community that I love... there are always those wonderful people that step up and help. Amy Jackson, Paula Pace, Joe at Royals FoodTown, and Madison Davis. We also had some great helpers come and assist the children in the different activities... Thank you Destiny Saunders, West Saunders, Vanessa Barlow, Kaylee Blackburn, Melony Hill, Stran Beeler and anyone else that helped.

Find us on FaceBook and LIKE our page. We have posted photos from the summer reading activities that you’ll want to see. If you would like to know the location of our bookmobile, we are going to post each day what community it will be visiting. We also plan to post when we receive new books, book club ideas and would love to have you share your favorite reads as well. So, to make sure you don’t miss out on anything, be sure and “LIKE”us of FaceBook.

The purpose for having the summer reading program is to encourage children to read during the summer months and provide a positive experience in going to the library. It is our hope that the children grow up as library lovers and most importantly, readers. It is critical that they keep reading during the summer months in order to have them progress in their reading skills. We will continue to give prizes for another month or until we run out of prizes. So, please keep the kids “DIGGING into some good BOOKS!” —Faun Jackson, Tri-County Bookmobile Library

eBooks for Students

Garfield School District will be working with Southwest Educational Development Center and five other school districts to apply for an eBooks grant. The official title of the project is, “Engaging Students through Reading Innovatively Delivered eBooks” (eSTRIDEe). If the grant is awarded by the State Library Commission the districts could receive $25,000 to start a regional eBooks system in which Garfield School District would be able to participate. If the grant is awarded, it would deliver eBooks to over 12,000 9th-12th grade students in the region.

The eBooks would help develop a love of reading as they become more familiar with electronic books. There are many benefits with this project for students in Garfield School District.

Students would be provided with copies of eBooks which could be shared across schools and would eliminate the need for multiple copies per school. This ability to share copies between schools and districts will increase the accesses to thousands of books for students in our schools.

It would be impossible to provide this type of access to reading materials for the students in Garfield School District by purchasing hard copies of all these books. The eBooks will provide a very affordable solution to allow greater student access to books. The grant application is due on July 15 and I will keep you informed of the progress of the project and let you know if we are awarded the funding to provide the eBooks to the students.

A friend of mine and I were talking about how easy it is to get caught up worrying about what others think about you. Sometimes doing so, though, can create fear so great that it immobilizes. This kind of a habit can be selfdestructive. It is typically one that feeds the mind with negative thoughts over and over and over again, where, often times, one actually becomes what they think.

Much time can be wasted -and better spent helping someone who really needs you instead-- in this self-destructive thinking cycle.

Yet why do some struggle with what others think in the first place?

The late Dr. Stephen R. Covey said, “People with a scarcity mentality tend to see everything in terms of winlose. There is only so much; and if someone else has it, that means there will be less for me. The more principle-centered we become, the more we develop an abundance mentality, the more we are genuinely happy for the successes, well-being, achievements, recognition, and good fortune of other people. We believe their success adds to...rather

than detracts from...our lives” (ThinkExisit, 2013).

One friend of mine, Collette*, grew up having no selfesteem at all. Her father did not care if she lived or died.

Her mother was too busy with her career and she spent most of her time raising her younger brothers. She was always comparing her weaknesses to the strengths of others and she worried incessantly about what others thought about her. Add to that, she always felt like she had to explain her behavior.

A psychologist friend of mine once said, “You don’t owe anyone an explanation.”

I believe he was referring to those, who, like Collette, feel like they do.

He also said, “Confidence is the spirit,” and “the spirit is confidence.”

LDS Church leader, Glenn L. Pace (2005) said, “To lack confidence is to have feelings of low self-worth. We are preoccupied with our weaknesses, and we lack faith in the Lord’s ability to use those weaknesses for our good. We do not understand our inestimable worth in the eyes of God, nor do we appreciate our divine potential. Ironically,

The Bicknell Flood

both pride and a lack of selfconfidence cause us to focus excessively on ourselves and to deny the power of God in our lives” (LDS.org, 2013).

Pace (2007), one time asked his audience, at a meeting in Idaho, “What is it you don’t think you can do? You can do it” (as cited in Bruner, 2007).

And Bruner (2007) offers additional counsel, “With Satan constantly trying to tear us down and feel that we are of little or no value it is often hard to believe in ourselves.

But take some time to ponder on your individual worth and the divine potential within you. Truly visualize God as your Father and you as his son or daughter. He loves you. He believes in you. He values you enough to sacrifice His Only Begotten Son, Jesus Christ, for you. Now believe in yourself. What do you think you can’t do? “You can do it.” *Name change Cynthia Kimball is a speaker and trainer through her company Every1Counts, LLC, and a doctoral student in Workforce Education Leadership.

Gaudiness, Godliness, and Self Control

Better?

A 3-year old girl was being watched by her Aunt while Mom and Dad went on a much-needed date.

She was playing chase the dog around the house. She tripped over the dog and got an “owie” on her knee.

Her aunt didn’t see any real injury, but kissed it to make it “better.”

The little girl said it felt better, but two Oreo cookies would make it feel much better.

Many years ago, when my 9 year old daughter was 3, we went to our usual Sunday morning church service.

We were seated and waiting for the service to begin, when this woman walked by us in a really bright, gaudy dress.

My husband, who never says anything about anyone, even made a comment about how “loud” the dress was.

After the service was over, we were standing outside the church chatting with another couple. I couldn’t see my daughter and then I noticed her standing right next to (practically on top of) the woman with the dress. When I asked her what she was doing, she said “I’m trying to hear this dress mom. Dad said it was really loud, but I haven’t heard it make a peep yet.”

Everyone within earshot, with the exception of my husband and the woman in the dress burst out laughing. My husband wanted to crawl in a hole, and I have to say I never saw that particular dress worn again.

Escaped Lion

A man was walking along the street when he saw a crowd of people running toward him.

He stopped one of the runners and asked, “What’s happening?”

The runner replied breathlessly, “A lion has escaped from the city zoo.”

“Oh no! Which way is it heading?”

“Well, you don’t think we’re chasing it, do you?”

Wills, Trusts, and More Did Your Refinance “Undo” Your Living Trust?

Answers for this week

home that was never formally transferred to the trust. However, it can be costly for a court to make such determination and defeats the purpose of the trust.

Anyone who implemented a “living trust” and subsequently refinanced their property should review the documents to make sure that the home is currently held in the living trust. If not, the owner should have a new deed prepared. The new deed should return the property into the trust.

Respectable Judge

A woman was being questioned in a court trial involving slander.

“Please repeat the slanderous statements you heard, exactly as you heard them,” instructed the lawyer.

The witness hesitated.

“But they are unfit for any respectable person to hear,” she protested.

“Then,” said the attorney, “just whisper them to the judge.”

neat,

“The Bicknell Flood”(2004). From Fence Lines, by Ray Conrad, published by Avalanche Creek Productions, 2009.

Revocable “living trusts” have become increasingly popular in the past decade.

They allow heirs to avoid probate court proceedings.

But unlike a will, a living trust cannot be simply signed and filed away. If an asset is never transferred to the trust, or is unintentionally removed from the trust, it will be subject to probate.

Over the past few years, as interest rates plunged, many homeowners refinanced their homes to reduce payments. Unfortunately, many lenders won’t make loans on property held in a living trust.

They insist that the home be transferred back to the owners’ individual names before a loan is made.

After the new loan is made and the new deed of trust is recorded, the homeowners are free to transfer the home back into the living trust but lenders rarely assist homeowners with this final step.

(Some homeowners don’t even know their home was removed from the trust, since they signed many documents at once.) The end result is that homeowners who properly transferred their homes into living trusts to avoid probate, may face probate anyway because their work was undone.

It is sometimes possible to obtain court approval to confirm trust ownership of a

Bicknell, Utah. Nice clean town, all tidy, spruce and Since the flood washed all their garbage out.

It dang near took the streets.

It wasn’t the biblical forty days. It rained for a couple of hours, But it was like, a big deluge, not intermittent showers.

Storms are so capricious here. It scarcely got wet in Loa, But Bicknell could have used advice from a gentleman named Noah.

I guess the major mudflow came out of Sunglow Park.

The dentist, where the mud ran down, about could have used the Ark. Whoever had things stored outside should see if they still got ‘em.

‘Cause chances are that what they had is down in the Bicknell Bottoms.

One of the farmers planted and plowed, and got zilch for all his labors.

The flood picked up his lucerne patch and moved it to the neighbors.

They’ve pret’ near got the town cleaned up.

It’s peaceful and dry once more.

But folks will recollect for year on the Bicknell flood of ‘04.

Marriage Vows

If you are concerned that your living trust may not be properly funded, or if you have other questions about your trust, review your existing documents. You should then make a list of questions and concerns to discuss with an attorney. Delaying addressing these issues could be costly. Many times all that is needed is a deed prepared and recorded or a simple amendment to modify small portions of a trust in order to accommodate changes in circumstances.

4K Ride for Cancer to be Hosted in Escalante July 22-23 During Garfield County Leg of Tour The 4K Ride for Cancer—a Baltimore to San Francisco 4,000 mile bicycle ride— is a program of the Ulman Cancer Fund for Young Adults.

They are a non-profit organization dedicated to enhancing lives by supporting, educating and connecting young adults, and their loved ones, affected by cancer. Since 2001, groups of college students have undertaken journeys across America with the goal of offering hope, inspiration and support to cancer communities along the way.

The 4K for Cancer riders will arrive in Escalante from Torrey on Monday, July 22, and will stay at the Escalante High School that evening. There will be a potluck dinner for the 28 riders at 5 PM on July 22nd at Escalante Outfitters.

The Escalante Outfitters will be donating Pizza and drinks for the 28 riders at their pavilion.

We are asking the community to join us and bring salads and deserts and other dishes that they would like to make.

We will also be doing a

potluck breakfast for them at 7 AM at the Outfitter’s pavilion before they ride on to Bryce.

In 2012, 88 4K for Cancer participants traveled across America and they were able to raise nearly $500,000 to support young adults affected by cancer.

2013 will represent the 12th year the 4K will travel across the country and brings new and exciting opportunities to the program.

The 4K is just one of the many programs of the Ulman Cancer Fund for Young Adults.

SANDY– The Utah Farm Bureau Federation (UFBF) will be holding its annual Midyear Conference July 1819 at the Sevier Valley Conference Center in Richfield, Utah. The theme of the conference — Many Voices, One Vision — speaks to the fact that despite the great diversity of Utah’s agriculture industry, farmers and ranchers share a common goal of working to produce quality food products for American dinner tables.

The midyear conference creates a central gathering point for farmers and ranchers from across the state. It provides a place for people from a variety of farming and ranching backgrounds to meet and discuss issues that impact their livelihood on a daily basis.

The conference is also vital in educating Utah farm and ranch

leaders on current agricultural issues and on developing policy solutions.

Registration and check in will begin at 11 a.m. on the 18th, with the opening general session starting at 1 p.m. After a public policy update by Sterling Brown, UFBF’s Vice President of Public Policy, UFBF President Leland Hogan will introduce the theme of the conference and set the stage for a variety of breakout speakers. Each day, participants will have the option to attend workshops that focus on improving farming and ranching operations, as well as updating them on critical policy issues that could impact their business.

On Thursday, participants are invited to attend a presentation on eminent domain presented by local attorney Steve Styler. Jay D. Olsen, Director of Farm and Ranch Management at Snow College’s Division of Business and Applied Technologies, will also be discussing tools and practices designed to help grow farming or ranching businesses.

Following Olsen’s remarks, attendees will hear about risk management and how it applies to farming and ranching industries. Thursday’s program will end with an information session about Utah’s depredation rules presented

by Scott McFarlane, private lands/public wildlife coordinator for Utah’s Division of Wildlife Resources.

Friday’s general session will start at 9 a.m. and will include a welcome from Sevier County Commissioner Tooter Ogden. Following Ogden,

participants will move on to learn what it takes to run a successful campaign for elected office and how to be a productive voice for agriculture in the community. Utah Senate Majority Leader Ralph Okerlund will also address the conference and talk about the state of politics at the Utah legislature.

Friday’s business will end with an option for participants to attend a presentation about the environmental stewardship program by Jay I. Olsen from the Utah Department of Agriculture and Food. Participants may also choose to learn about creating “farmily” histories and why it’s important to document the business and culture life of a family farm. Dave Homer, president of the Utah Association of Personal Historians, will present fun and creative ideas for documenting both family and farm.

Pertinent agriculture issues and relevant commodity problems will also be addressed in specific sessions throughout the conference.

Following the conference, there will be an optional tour of the nearby Redmond Minerals Salt mine, limited to the first 37 individuals who sign up at the conference.

“We look forward to keeping Utah Farm Bureau members and other interested parties informed on issues concerning food and agriculture,” Hogan said, President. “There will be valuable information to be heard, good friends to see, and new relationships to be made.”

She married Norman L. Davis, June 30, 1944 in Inglewood, California. The marriage was later solemnized in the St. George LDS Temple on September 24, 1976.

As a young girl June was an avid tennis player and later in her life, she liked to golf.

She and her forever sweetheart Norman loved the out of doors.

They camped, fished, boated, and water skied.

June was always athletic.

She and Norman were ‘snowbirds’ and loved to help people where ever they served as campground host/hostess.

While serving in Relief Society she penned the lyrics to a song ‘The Women of This Valley’ along with Sister Barbara Orton. In the community she served with the Lady Lions and as a volunteer at the hospital.

by Mack Oetting ~ mackoetting @gmail.com Do you think that the monsoons are early this year or is it all of the praying for rain that is paying off? Whatever it takes it is wonderful.

While the rest of the southwest is boiling with record heat, (119 in Vegas) here we set in perfect temperatures.

I don’t care at all for the hot weather; you can only take off so much clothing, before you get arrested. The little bit of rain we have gotten, sure has the lawns looking good.

How about those Firefighters and their fireworks on the 4th, were they the best ever? I used to help out, a little bit with the displays, but you can’t grasp the wonders of it all till you are some distance away. Dave Dodds and his crew are trained in setting off the fireworks, but it is still a dangerous situation, if one of them goes a stray. Our many thanks to those volunteers that add so much to our community. The Grand Finally was really great, I don’t know if they added something to it or what

and how about those circles, how do they do that?

Tammy Bennett and her FCCLA, gang of 11 are off to Nashville, for Nationals.

These are great kids and the school has come home highly decorated, with a lot of gold and silver medals in the pass.

Regardless of how they do in the competition, what a great experience this is for them.

Tammy’s kids have been helping out the Panguitch Lions Club, with cleaning up the highway and the Balloon Fest and the 4th breakfasts. They are really very good help and I don’t know what the Lions would have done with out them.

Last week the PHS boy basketball went down to the Dixie Classic basketball camp. They came away winners, taking both the Varsity and freshmen championships.

It looks like the prospects for both the Bobcats and Lady Cats is looking good for next year. The Barney boys (Curtis and Clint) have brought

these teams a long ways. In my humble opinion, I believe the sixty some State Titles that PHS has won, is due to the longevity of our coaching staffs and the efforts that they put into working with the youth, in their early years.

Next week the Fiddlers come to town, put it on your list of things to do this summer, they really are a fun group and they entertain us well. I believe that the taste of Panguitch will be on the Friday evening. So come early enjoy the food and walk across the street for some good old fashion country music. The Panguitch Lions will also have their last breakfast for the summer on that Saturday and they will be honoring the Fiddlers.

Reading the S.L. Tribune, I came across their Choice Awards for 2013 that I found interesting. Temple Square is the most popular of the Tourist spot; more people go there than second place Zion. The article said that coming to SL and not visiting Temple Square, was like going to Rome and not seeing the Vatican. There were awards for everything, from bars to ski lifts. The one that caught my eye was the Editors choice for the scenic drives and 1st place went to Highway 12. Highway 12 is my choice, not only in Utah, but throughout the Country. This is the Tribs. comments on 12, “ few paved roads in the world can match this 122 mile Southern Utah gem that has earned the honor of being designated an “AllAmerican Road.” The drive

connects U.S. 89 just south of Panguitch with Utah Highway 24 in Torrey. In its wandering, it passes through Red Canyon, Grand Staircase-Escalante National Monument, Bryce Canyon National Park, Anasazi State Park, Escalante Petrified Forest State Park, Boulder Mountain and Calf Creek Falls. You pass through the tiny towns of Bryce-Canyon City, Tropic, Cannonville, Henrieville, Escalante and Grover. What’s most impressive, though, is the variety of scenery that can be viewed in the recommended four-hour drive. Travelers can camp, bike, hike and learn about history while traveling through the fluorescent beauty of Bryce and Red Canyons and the alpine splendor of Boulder Mountain.”

The Editors’ Choice award for best hiking trails, is also my choice and it is the Queens Garden/Navajo Loop in Bryce Canyon. This trail has panoramic views, arches and towering spires of red rock. It’s long enough to feel challenging but not so difficult that children and us old people can’t do it and if you come out at Sunrise Point, there is the General Store and you can get some Dr. Pepper.

I hope that the Tribune. doesn’t mind me putting these awards in my article, I think it’s pretty cool. It draws attention to the wonderful area we live in.

The 4th of July always makes American’s proud of our heritage.

TORREY NewZ Adus Dorsey

For after all, the best thing one can do when it is raining is to let it rain: Henry Wadsworth Longfellow. And it and it rained, prayers answered.

The real Fourth of July in Torrey was celebrated with flags and all things American, family gatherings under the shade tree, backyard barbeques that consisted of hot dogs, grass fed beef and veggie hamburgers, fresh garden vegetables, Mama’s famous mouth watering potato salad and a few illegal fireworks that made the neighborhood howl or hide under the bed. It was the beginning of Torrey Apple Days, Torrey Town’s chance to shine and shine she did.

Preparations for Torrey Apple Days start almost as soon as one ends, right after a good massage and pedicure, and immediately after the reports and final numbers are all calculated. Like a family Bible the Torrey Apple Days binder contains all the little success secrets and words of wisdom from past Torrey Apple Days committee chairs. Like Himalayan Monks recording ancient history the Torrey Apple Days binder is a true testament, an ancient 1980’s document that gets continually and yearly updated of what made past Torrey Apple Days successful and what didn’t.

In the 1980’s, and according to past Torrey Apple Days chair and Queen of the Torrey Town Park, Janet Hansen recognized the need for a Torrey Town pavilion. It would be a special place where the community of Torrey, early pioneer, Wayne County families, and civic groups could gather in the heart of Torrey Town.

It would be a Torrey Town monument that would house annual fond memories of Boy Scout breakfasts and family reunions.

Fast-forward twenty years. The Torrey Town pavilion was eventually built by the dedicated efforts of a few future minded community minded individuals, persons\ that racked their minds and

Pictured: Mark Hilliard consistently sought funding ideas that could be used to erect the Torrey Town park pavilion, well thought out funding activities that would adequately provide funds during well-organized Torrey Apple Days events.

After much local funding activities, Torrey Town residents like Janet and Fred Hansen, Ken and Dorothy Knight and Vance and Vennetta Brinkerhoff and others pitched in o build the pavilion building. Persons that OSHA would never approve of climbing up on anything higher than a four-foot ladder much less geriatric age appropriate individuals with hammers probably handed down from pioneer ancestors that certainly crossed the plains in hand carts, nailing down asphalt shingles on a roof the size of the famed Salt Lake tabernacle. Through the efforts of future minded community minded residents the Torrey Town Park pavilion was proudly finished by community minded Torrey Town volunteers.

The continual Torrey Apple Days committee efforts of Paula Pace and Sheri Clark have help redefine and develop the present outline for the present day Torrey Town Apple celebration, and most recently Colleen Dudleston has graciously stepped up to the Torrey Apple Days plate appointing Loa’s Leslie Oyler to illicit a Wayne County wide volunteer effort to make Torrey Apple Days a success that it was.

In the year 2013 the Tor-

Adus Dorsey

rey Town park pavilion has hosted so many memorable community and family events that there is hardly ever a summer weekend in Torrey that the park pavilion is open for summer reservations With that said, The Torrey Apple Days 2013 celebration was nothing short of monumental.

The Thursday night “Movie in the Torrey Town Park” was a first, and a summer event that was so popular that is has been highly requested to continue. The Friday afternoon Turkey Shoot at the Red River Ranch, under the supervision of Gordon Ellett drew a slew of shot gun shooting enthusiasts that ultimately tested many Wayne County wide shooters hand eye coordination. Lucky for all the newly planted DWR local Wayne County wild turkeys, a mobile Boulder mountain turkey flock that got wind of the pending Wayne County Turkey shoot and as majority group decision decided to attend Boulder ‘s July Fourth festivities as to avoid a visit to the turkey ER or Jason Ekkers dinner table.

The Miss Apple Day girl’s talent show on Friday night at the Big Apple was such a hit that the Main Street traffic in Torrey was slowed to a crawl.

Talents included dancing and singing and fiddle tunes by some of Wayne County’s upcoming celebrities.

In fine fashion the Torrey Apple Days July 4th celebration, on Saturday morning July 6th the Torrey / Teasdale

Ward Boy Scouts hosted an early morning pancake breakfast event that fed in excess double the population of Torrey Town.

The Torrey Swap meet along Torrey’s Main Street and locations at the Torrey Town Park were busy with customers. The Main Street was parade was longer and more exciting than anyone can remember in recent memory.

Lee Austin did a great job as Emcee. Fred Hansen was the Grand Marshall driven by Ron Moosman in Rod Fraziers gangster car and Vannetta Brinkerhoff received flowers for the Citizen of the year.

Participants at the Torrey Apple Days parade lined Main Street and were semi counted in the thousands, a record attendance according to long time residents of Torrey.

Torrey Town Apple Days Fourth of July activities continued at the Torrey Town Park after the parade. There were so many people in the Torrey Town Park after the parade that trash and sanitary services were severely stressed.

Although the much needed rain that intermittently presented itself during the 2013 celebration of Torrey’s July Apple Days, no one dared to complain.

As a Torrey Apple Days cumulating event a celebratory dance took place at the “Big Apple” a tradition that dates back longer that many recent Wayne County residents can remember, a result of long time relationships that have produced some of the finest members of our community.

As a final note and as a personal visit to the hospital in SLC to see Randy Austin, Randy says to everyone “thanks for your caring thoughts”, and expect the price of cup of coffee at the Chuckwagon to go up soon.

We Love You Randy, come home soon!

Alfred and Toni Foster were released as Primary teachers and Bob Harman was released as the Cub Master.

Thank to all of you for your fine work. Called to be the Cub Master was April Roberts.

Welcome to Tropic to Collin Bryant and the Jackson Family, Jeremiah, Janet, Jolene, Cheslynn, Janesa, Kyden, and Kaden. (Please forgive me if I got the names wrong. Let me know and I will do better). They have moved into the Slate and Pennie Stewart home and we are glad they are here.

Do not forget the 1/2 Marathon that is being run on Saturday, June 13th. Watch for the runners on the roadways and notice that the traffic will be slower due to the narrowing of one lane. We wish all the runners success and hope the coolness stays with them.

Congratulations goes out to Cecy Clarke and Mark Weber who are getting married on July 27th at Cecy’s home in Tropic. She wants everyone to know they are invited and more than welcome to come join in this wonderful event.

We wish the newlyweds the best of luck and a happy, adventurous future. Cecy is the daughter of Wes and Ellen Clarke of Tropic and the granddaughter of Lester and Vertis Clarke also of Tropic.

Kevin and Dorsie Denny came from Riverton to visit with Ernie and Wynona Henderson and other family members. Also spending time in the Bryce area are Anthony and Lauren Senary. The Senary’s spent time with the Whitfields and The Eagar’s.

First item of business is to remind you of the Blood Drive in Tropic on Thursday the 11rh. If you have signed up great but then if not you are welcome to just walk in and we will take you.

The July 4th Celebration went very well. We had a great turn out and some people went home happy because they won the big prizes. The 51” TV was won by Jim Snodgrass of Hatch, Utah. The big BBQ was won by Kathy Shakespeare of Tropic, Two day Moab trip was won by Danny Chynoweth of Tropic, Binoculars won by Alayse Roundy of Tropic, and the GPS was Dave Robert’s prize.

He is from Henrieville. Congratulations to all the winners including the T-shirt winners.

The Safe Sidewalk Fund came out ahead of the game by earning around $2500.00 to help them lay some more blocks of cement to get the walk finished. I sure was planning on taking that big TV home but I guess it wasn’t to be. Everyone had a great time in spite of the fact that the inflatables came a bit late. Lots of fun games, races, and of course wonderful food. The Fire Department held their annual BBQ in the evening and then everyone drove up to see the fantastic fireworks at Ruby’s Inn. Saw so many folks that we only see once in awhile.

They came home to celebrate the 4th with family and friends in Tropic.

For the ladies who are taking the crochet classes the one on the 18th of July at 6:00 P.M. will be all about the Granny Squares. So come on out and join in the fun of learning to crochet.

Logann is Lauren’s sister.

They also brought their two children, Sophia and Draper along to spend time in the area. The Eagar’s and the Denny’s went up to Lower Barker to go fishing and they got rained out. Darn it!!

Ernie and Wynone went to Ephraim to the blessing of Shane and Candace Davis’ little girl, Zoey Jane. They were very excited to be able to spend time with their daughter and her family, Dan and Wendy Davis and son Austin.

They came up from Mesa Arizona for the event. The Henderson’s then went on to Salt Lake for Ernie’s VA appointment.

Lance Foster has set up his concession on Main Street in Tropic and it sure smells good. he seems to be busy because there are cars there all the time. Down the street you will find Eddie Garcia and his yummy burritos that he sells from out of Joey’s hamburger wagon. If you want a change of pace you have many places to go. We have many choices and all of it is great food.

There are so many changes going on in Bryce Canyon City. On both sides of the highway you can see them working on the new renovation of the highway in Bryce Canyon City. It is underway to help with the traffic flow, parking and the overall appearance of the Main Street. Changes include new sidewalks, traffic lights, intersections and beautiful new landscaping. It is just in the beginning stages now but will be well underway by the end of August and then fully completed this fall. It will be ex-

citing to see all the changes, knowing that this will enhance the experience for guests of Ruby’s Inn and Bryce Canyon City for years to come. If you go inside there are changes in there also. Most notably in the restaurant and the buffet and salad bar.

A reminder that the celebration for Pioneer Day will be held on the 20th of July in Tropic.

Henrieville and Cannonville celebrated the fourth in and Old Fashioned way. The kids loved the old fashioned games such as toss game, pie eating contest, fish pond,

to Salt Lake for the wedding of their granddaughter, Jennifer Black, daughter of Cindy and Tom Black, and Spencer Thueson. The wedding was in the Salt Lake Temple with a reception following that same evening in Bountiful. Lois said they met a cute little 94 year old lady there who said she was born in Escalante. It turns out she was the former Edith Porter, Ben Porter’s sister.

The Frances Lyman Family Reunion will be held this weekend, in Boulder, July 13th, at the Boulder schoolhouse.

Boulder Heritage days are also being celebrated on the 12th and 13th, in Boulder.

Our condolences go out to Steven Steed and his entire family at the loss of his son, Jesse. Jesse, 36, lost his life in the big Yarnell fire in Arizona.

Such a tragedy.

Gary Lane Liston, son of Lane and Geraldine Liston, was with a fire crew from St. Johns, Az. who also worked on that fire.

A group gathered at the city park last weekend for a party and a movie in celebration of the new playground. It will probably get tested over the 24th of July. Maybe get more attention than the booths on that day!

Ed and Camille Shakespear and part of their family (Dustin and Deven) spent the 4th of July weekend at their cabin on Boulder Mountain.

Ryan and Jaxen Cottam and Gavin, son of Travis Cottam, went over one day to fish with the guys at McGath Lake.

They hadn’t been at the lake long before they were joined by a BEAR! Apparently it wasn’t shy about letting them know that they were in his territory! But you need to get “The Rest of the Story” from them. Anyway, there are “Bar in those thar hills” and this is not the only one that has been spotted. So if you go to the hills remember to wear good bear repellent but mainly just don’t get too close! I would be like the story they used to tell about the Indian and the bear. When the Indian said to the bear, “You likee my tracks? I makee you more!!!”

Jay and Derlynne Brooks fished at McGath one day too and she was scared when they ran into the fish and game man! No telling what she would have done if they had seen a bear! Good thing you remembered your fishing license, Derlynne!

Did you see the big fish Louie Bernardo caught at Tropic Reservoir? I don’t know who else was with them but Janalee had it on Facebook. It looked like they were a part of a BIG camping group but no information. I was glad to see that Louie is feeling well enough to fish. Hope he continues to feel better.

Don and Lillian Coleman and part of their family just returned from Kanab where they attended the Coleman Reunion. Maybe they will call with details for later?

Justin Marsh came from Parowan and got his Dad’s (Sharon Dale) camp trailer.

Charlie Syrett born on Saturday the 6th. Parents are Nic and Taylor with grandparents being Allen and Tammi Syrett.

Great-grandparents are Art and Vicki Syrett of Tropic and Richard and Linda Later of Idaho.

The Senior Citizen bus will be making a trip to St. George this saturday, 13 July.

Call if you want to go.

What a great holiday we just celebrated and we celebrate our freedoms. Have a safe week and please call or email the news of your visitors, reunions, etc. I take articles from all. Thanks VS.

ESCALANTE News

by Marlene Haws ~ 826-4859 • marleneh@color-country.net The first thing I need to do is finish the story I was telling last week. Marlene and Stanley Stowe did go on a motorcycle trip with a group, but what I didn’t know was that “the group” was from Escalante too! It included Michael and Emilee Woolsey, Elaine Lott, Valerie Sparks, Lori Ahlstrom and Jeff St. John. They did go to Colorado where they toured Cortez, Durango, Silverton, etc. They said it was Hot Hot! But it was worth it and they all had a good time. They did have a little rain too which cooled it off some.

We have had a couple of little rain showers also and wasn’t it great? I don’t think it had to do entirely with the rain dances Rose Bailey claims she is doing in her back yard, but don’t stop, Rose, and the rest of us will continue to do our part.

Janeen Duncan, Loa, has spent the past week here with her parents, Deon and Arnold Alvey. Deon decided she needed to wash a window last week and on her way down off the ladder she lost her footing and fell. She went to the clinic then on over to Panguitch for x-rays. Nothing was broken but she was badly bruised and shaken up and, of course, your pride is always badly wounded whenever you take a fall. She is doing better but Janeen is still here with them.

Natalie Coombs Pfleger dropped in on the Alvey’s for a visit. She has been in Boulder a big part of the summer with her kids. She had just come from the airport where she had dropped her husband, Mike, off so he could fly back to Scottsdale, Az. where they live. He is a doctor there. She says she is not going back to Az. until it cools off some if she has her way.

Brent and Patrice Cottam, Nathan and Elisa Lyman and family just returned from Safford, Arizona where they spent the 4thof July weekend with Reggie and Shondelle Gillins and boys. A hot trip but well worth it. Reggie is working in the hospital there and Shondelle and the boys are gradually settling in.

Ray and Lois Barney went

limbo dance, played in the water, and the inflatable slide.

Hamburgers and hot dogs and watermelon. A very fun day.

The Johnson Family Reunion held this weekend. Lots of folks came back to visit with family and friends. Guy Thompson family also had a family get together. Dr. Heidi Thompson and Guy Thompson Jr. and his family were all here.

Carlon Johnson was called as the eleven year old assistant scout leader.

We are great-grandparents again. Nic Syrett has a beautiful baby girl, Piper

BRYCE VALLEY AREA Senior Lunches at the HENRIEVILLE Senior Center He was going to take his family on a camping trip and also go to the Manti Pageant.

The Alburn and Neoma Griffin family held their family reunion on the mountain last weekend. They must still be camping because I couldn’t get any of them on the phone this morning. I do know they had around 153 in attendance, were only minus a few and while they were holding the reunion Clayton and Angela Carter were adding to the numbers. Their little baby boy, Hesson, arrived safely on Clayton’s sister, Ashley’s, wedding anniversary and his aunt Marilee’s birthday. So there will be a lot of celebrating on that day from now on. Needless to say, Grandma Joy is on cloud 9!

While they were all together they celebrated Grandpa DeLane’s 90th birthday. What a great way to celebrate, with your whole family!

The Garfield County Fair August 14 -17, 2013 Mark your calendars for the 2013 Garfield County Fair, August 14th-17th. New this year: Baby Contest, Mechanical Bull & Laser Tag! Great entertainment, there will be the ever popular Ping Pong Ball drop, and Fish Grab for the kids.

For Your Health Do You Have Dandruff or Seborrheic Dermatitis?

Human skin is prone to many types of problems.

Hundreds of medical conditions affect the skin, from minor to very serious. This guide will discuss two relatively minor and self-treatable conditions that affect the scalp—dandruff and seborrheic dermatitis.

What Is Dandruff?

Dandruff occurs only on the scalp. It is so common that almost everyone has seen it, as the embarrassing flaking of scalp skin that many people find cosmetically unacceptable.

The flakes have a characteristic look, are somewhat oily, and seem to be present on a good part of the scalp. Someone with dandruff may also notice itching in the areas with the worst flaking.

Dandruff usually begins in the teen years when you go through puberty. It may improve as you age, although some people struggle with it all their lives. It is more common in men because their oil-producing glands are larger than those of women. It is worse in winter because the air is drier. Dry air causes the skin to dry out, and dry scalp skin is more prone to develop dandruff.

What Is Seborrheic Dermatitis?

Seborrheic dermatitis may occur on the scalp but also on such oily skin areas as inside or behind the ears, on the creases at the sides of the nose, or on the eyelids, eyebrows, lips, face, upper chest, or back. It also causes scales that are white or yellow. The affected skin may also be reddened, and it may itch.

If one family member has seborrheic dermatitis, others are more likely to develop it. The condition seems to worsen under certain circumstances, such as stress, fatigue, extreme weather conditions, excess skin oiliness, failure to bathe or shampoo daily, use of alcohol-containing lotions, or presence of acne or obesity.

Treatment of Dandruff and Seborrheic Dermatitis You can try several products to see if they help dandruff or seborrheic dermatitis.

Since both affect the scalp, there are several shampoos you may find beneficial.

For dandruff, there are many product options. Zinc pyrithione as found in Head & Shoulders, Pert, and Zincon shampoos is a good ingredient to try. Follow all label directions for use. Selenium sulfide as found in Selsun Blue is an alternative that is helpful.

Salicylic acid helps dandruff and is found in Ionil Plus, Scalpicin Scalp Liquid, T/Sal, and Denorex Extra Strength.

A product called Nizoral A-D shampoo contains ketoconazole, a medication that attacks the fungus that can contribute to dandruff in some patients. It is worth a trial to see if the fungus can be controlled in your case.

Seborrheic dermatitis responds to all of the medications listed above except Nizoral A-D. Any may be beneficial. You may also try a trial of nonprescription hydrocortisone for seborrheic dermatitis, using a product such as Cortaid.

If your condition fails to respond to these interventions, you may need to visit a physician for a prescription medication such as ketoconazole cream. Applied once daily, it may effectively prevent the seborrheic dermatitis symptoms. Your physician can also check to see whether the condition is a more severe problem.

Remember, if you have questions, Consult Your Pharmacist

Youth Archery Permits On Sale July 11 Permits available for each of Utah’s 30 deer units If you’re a young hunter who likes to hunt deer with a bow and arrow, but you don’t have a permit to hunt in Utah this fall, you’re in luck: Archery permits for young hunters go on sale July 11.

Permits are available for each of Utah’s 30 general deer hunting units. To qualify, you must be 18 years of age or younger on Aug. 17. You must also be a graduate of Utah’s Hunter Education program.

The special youth permits go on sale at 8 a.m. You can get a permit on our website. Permits will also be available at Division of Wildlife Resources offices and from more than 300 hunting license agents across Utah.

The Utah Wildlife Board approved the special youth archery permits at a meeting in May. The number of permits ranges from a low of eight permits for the Plateau, Thousands Lakes unit to a high of 355 permits for the Central Mountains, Manti/San Rafael unit.

You can see the number of permits for each unit online.

Among the archery, muzzleloader and rifle deer hunts,

Buck deer archery permits — for those 18 years of age or younger go on sale July 11. Photo by Bill Bates. the success rate is lowest during the archery hunt. For example, during the 2012 general archery hunt, 23 percent of those with an archery permit took a deer.

If you buy a youth archery permit, Anis Aoude encourages you to get your bow and arrows out and start practicing. “If you start practicing now,” says Aoude, big game coordinator for the DWR, “you’ll have a much better chance of hitting

your target this fall.”

Questions More information about the youth archery deer permits is available on pages 22 and 23 of the free 2013 Utah Big Game Application Guidebook.

BARKER RESERVOIRS (NORTH CREEK LAKES): (July 02) Dougherty Basin Lake is closed to fishing until July 13. Access is good, and fishing is fair to good. Now is a great time to target larger brook trout. Fish around structure — like logs, boulders, undercut banks, springs, inlets and floating grass mats — with marabou jigs or streamers in black, olive or purple. Small midges are hatching and can provide some good surface action. Natural baits, like nightcrawlers, are also a good choice.

BOULDER MOUNTAIN: (July 02) Fishing varies from fair to fast, depending on the lake.

Now is a great time to target larger brook trout. Fish around structure — like logs, boulders, undercut banks, springs, inlets and floating grass mats — with marabou jigs or streamers in black, olive or purple. Small midges are hatching and can provide some good surface action. Natural baits, like nightcrawlers, are also a good choice. Call the Quiet Fly Fisher fly shop at 435-616-2319 for up-to-date conditions and fishing reports.

EAST FORK SEVIER RIVER, BLACK CANYON: (July 02) Water flows are low and clear.

Circle Valley Anglers fly shop reports good to excellent fishing with a variety of dry flies and nymphs. Hoppers are also producing well. Call the shop at 435-577-2168 for up-to-date conditions and fishing reports.

EAST FORK SEVIER RIVER, UPPER: (July 02) Brown, brook and rainbow trout are abundant. Summer fishing is typically fair to good with flies, lures or natural baits like nightcrawlers.

FISH LAKE: (July 02) Trolling is producing good fishing for rainbow trout. You can also catch a few splake and lake trout by trolling deeper. Perch fishing is good to excellent. Call the Fish Lake Lodge at 435-638-1000 or the Quiet Fly Fisher fly shop at 435-616-2319 for up-to-date conditions and fishing reports.

FREMONT RIVER: (July 02) The Quiet Fly Fisher fly shop reports water flows are up and a little murky on the upper Fremont because of releases from Johnson Reservoir. Fishing is still fair using olive woolly buggers in eddies and pools. There have been some big caddis hatches and yellow sallies in the river below Highway 12. Evenings are the best time to fish. Call the shop at 435-616-2319 for up-to-date conditions and fishing reports.

KOLOB RESERVOIR: (July 02) Bait fishing is now allowed at Kolob Reservoir until September 14. Fly fishing is producing fair to good results. Shore fishing is best in the morning and evening while float tubers can find good fishing throughout the day. Midge patterns are the most effective. A few boaters report fair fishing by trolling minnow- and crayfish-imitating lures. Bait fishing is slow. The trout limit is two fish, and all trout between 15 and 22 inches must be immediately released.

KOOSHAREM RESERVOIR: (July 02) There haven’t been any recent reports from anglers.

LOWER BOWNS RESERVOIR: (July 02) Fishing is good to excellent for healthy 14- to 16-inch rainbows. Call the Quiet Fly Fisher fly shop at 435-616-2319 for up-to-date conditions and fishing reports.

NAVAJO LAKE: (July 02) Catchable-sized rainbow trout have been stocked, and fishing is fair to good. Cut bait and frozen minnows are producing a few nice splake. Splake fishing is often spotty, but can be very good at times. Use small pieces of nightcrawlers to catch a few chubs, and then cut the chubs into one-inch pieces to fish for splake.

NEWCASTLE RESERVOIR: (July 02) Anglers report good fishing for smallmouth bass.

Trout fishing is fair, and you’ll find the best success early or late in the day. Wiper fishing is slow to fair.

OTTER CREEK RESERVOIR & STATE PARK: (July 02) The reservoir is 63-percent full.

Trolling usually provides the best success throughout the summer. Shore fishing is generally slow because of the warm water temperature in the shallows, but some anglers are catching fish along the state park beach early or late in the day. The Circle Valley Anglers fly shop reports good success with dry flies in the evening and streamers during the day.

PANGUITCH LAKE: (July 02) Trolling anglers report fair to good fishing for rainbow, cutthroat and tiger trout. Bait fishing is slow to fair for shore anglers and fair to good for boat anglers.

The Circle Valley Anglers fly shop reports good to excellent fishing from both shore and float tubes with dry flies, midge larvae and streamers.

PINE LAKE: (July 02) Catchable-sized rainbow trout have been stocked, and fishing is fair to good.

Damsel flies are starting to emerge, so damsel dries are also producing results. Call the shop at 435-616-2319 for up-to-date conditions and fishing reports.

TROPIC RESERVOIR: (July 02) Access is good. Catchable-sized rainbow trout have been stocked.

WIDE HOLLOW RESERVOIR: (July 02) The state park reports good fishing for rainbow trout, largemouth bass and bluegill.

Practical Money Matters

Retiring Soon?

Don’t Forget Tax Implications

by Jason Alderman

If your retirement is not far off, you’ve probably already started to estimate what your living expenses will be after the regular paychecks stop. Most would-be retirees remember to include routine expenses like housing (rent or mortgage), medical bills and prescriptions, insurance premiums, transportation – even food and entertainment.

But don’t forget to factor in taxes, which can have a substantial impact on your cost of living, depending on where you live and what your sources of retirement income will be.

Here are a few tax-related issues to consider when budgeting for retirement: Social Security. Most people can begin collecting Social Security benefits as early as age 62, albeit at significantly reduced amounts than waiting until their full retirement age (65 for those born before 1938 and gradually increasing to 67 for those born in 1960 or later).

Although many states don’t tax Social Security benefits, the federal government does. Depending on your “combined income” (adjusted gross income plus nontaxable interest earned plus half of your Social Security benefits), you could end up owing federal income tax on a portion of your benefit. It’s complicated, but basically: • Single people whose combined income is less than $25,000 aren’t taxed on

their Social Security benefit. For combined income between $25,000 and $34,000, up to 50 percent of your benefit may be taxed. Over $34,000, up to 85 percent may be taxable.

• For married couples filing jointly: benefits aren’t taxable for combined income below $32,000; benefits for income between $32,000 and $44,000 are up to 50 percent taxable; over $44,000 – up to 85 percent taxable.

• To learn more about taxation of Social Security benefits, read IRS Publication 915 at www.irs.gov.

Some people discover after beginning to collect a reduced Social Security benefit that they can’t make ends meet and must go back to work, which can backfire: If your annual wages exceed $15,120, you will lose $1 of Social Security benefits for every $2 you earn over that amount (investment income doesn’t count.)

Rest assured, however: These benefit reductions are not completely lost: Your Social Security benefit will be increased upon reaching full retirement age to account for benefits withheld due to earlier earnings.

IRA and 401(k) withdrawals. After age 59 ½, you can start withdrawing balances from your IRA without paying the 10 percent early withdrawal penalty – although exceptions are made in cases

including disability, qualified first-time homebuyer distributions and certain medical expenses. However, you will pay federal (and state, if applicable) income tax on IRA withdrawals – except for Roth IRAs held at least five years, whose contributions have already been taxed.

With 401(k) plans, you can withdraw funds after age 55 without the 10 percent penalty if you are no longer employed by the company sponsoring the plan.

Other taxes. Some people move to another state after retirement thinking they’ll lower their tax burden. For example, seven states do not tax personal income; however, another two tax only dividend and interest income. And five states charge no sales tax. But because other taxes and cost-of-living expenses vary significantly by community, you should only consider such moves after doing thorough research.

The Retirement Living Information Center (www.retirementliving.com) features breakdowns of the various kinds of taxes seniors are likely to pay, state by state, including those on income, sales, fuel, property and inheritances.

Bottom line: Be sure to consult a financial advisor long before retirement to make sure you fully understand all the many tax and income implications.

Photo: “Strawberry Days,” by Heather T. SALT LAKE CITY - Utah Arts & Museums is seeking photographs from the public for our upcoming exhibition, “This Is the Place.” The deadline for submissions is August 1, 2013.

The exhibition runs August 16 – September 13, 2013 at the Rio Gallery inside the Rio Grande Depot (300 South Rio Grande Street) in Salt Lake City. There will be a public reception on Friday, August 16 from 6 to 9 p.m. in collaboration with the Salt Lake Gallery Stroll.

Standing at the mouth of Emigration Canyon on July 24, 1847, Brigham Young is said to have declared, “This is the place.” And in the words of author Joan Didion, “A place belongs forever to whoever claims it hardest, remembers it most obsessively, wrenches it from itself, shapes it, renders it, loves it so radically that he remakes it in his own image.”

We invite all who have been influenced by Utah to send us a picture or short video of a favorite place or memorable moment in Utah. If you feel any tie to the landscape or have been touched by the remarkable surroundings in our state, we ask

Send your photos to: favoriteplaceinutah@gmail.com ·Submit up to 3 photos ·Provide your name and the precise place you took the photo ·Images should be around 120 pixels per inch, no larger than 1 MB Videos: · Can be up to 10 seconds long ·Provide your name and the precise place you took the video ·Must be a quicktime file (.mov) For more information, visit: http://favoriteplaceinutah. tumblr.com/about Join the Facebook event: https://www.facebook.com/ events/471865552881537/ —Utah Arts & Museums

that you share it with us. Show us your favorite rocks to climb on, the restaurant where you met your wife, the park where you learned how to ride your bike. Take a picture of the place that comes immediately to mind when you speak of Utah.

Those who submit their photos/ videos will be able to see their work in a digital slideshow that will play in the gallery.

“As a culture, we often forget to heed our ties to the land,” noted Utah Arts & Museums Director Lynnette Hiskey. “It’s important to consider the effect that place has on us. Just as we shape the landscape around us, the landscape shapes each of us.”
