Boating Safety Urged on Lake Powell After Two Serious Accidents PAGE, ARIZ. - After two serious recent watercraft accidents, one of them fatal, Visitor and Resource Protection rangers at Glen Canyon National Recreation Area are urging boaters to pay closer attention to safety on the water. On Thursday, July 28, two personal watercraft collided in Iceberg Canyon on Lake Powell. One of the riders, a 23-year-old man from Denver, CO, died in the ac-
cident. Rangers dispatched to the scene found the man’s 15-year-old brother, who had been operating the other personal watercraft in the crash, in serious condition. He was flown by air ambulance to a hospital in Grand Junction, CO. After treatment there, the teen was released the next day. The accident is under investigation by the San Juan County Sherriff’s Office and the National Park Service. On Sunday, July 24 at
around 8 p.m., a runabout boat carrying a family of five from Phoenix struck a rock near Stanton Creek on Lake PowBoating Safety Cont'd on page 2

So when over 300 music lovers showed up and were treated to a line-up that included Gearl Jam Reunion, Lost by Reason, Sister Wives, and the Zari Le’on Dance Theater, they knew that Women’s Redrock Music Festival was indeed something special. But they like others had to see it to believe it. Carol, Jeri and Laurie remember looking at each other on that Saturday night in
less to say, she was astonished by the quality of the music and the beauty of the venue. Some of the townspeople of Torrey didn’t know what to make of the crowds and wondered if their little town was the right venue. But just like most relationships, the more the town got to see and interact with the festival goers, the more it appreciated what WRMF meant for the town. Now, in 2016 for the 10th Annual Women’s Redrock Music Festival (12-13 August),
cals volunteer at the festival, several are vendors, and even more attend just to hear the music. Carol Gnade—the festival was her brainchild in 2007—loves music, loves the red rocks of Torrey, and loves making things happen. Through hard work and tireless fund raising, she and her team have grown the festival to one that is a favorite of performers and attendees. Carol Music Festival Cont'd on page 2

ESCALANTE - Stage Two of the seven stage Tour of Utah—shown above just moments before the start of the race—started in Escalante on Tuesday, August 2, and ended 99 miles later in Torrey following a climb to 9,435 ft over Boulder Mountain. U.S. rider Robin Carpenter won Stage Two with a time of 3:56:48, with just a 6 second gap between second place, Ruben Companioni, from Cuba. Third place was taken by another U.S. rider, Travis McCabe. The Tour of Utah's overall winner was 24 year old Lachlan David Morton, an Australian cyclist. He rode with team Jelly BellyMaxxis which is registered in the U.S., as a UCI Continental Team. That's right—your favorite jelly bean company, Jelly Belly, is the title sponsor, and a Taiwanese tire company is the presenting sponsor of this team. Morton also took home 1st place in the Tour of the Gila earlier this year. The second and third places overall for the Tour of Utah went to two Americans, Adrien Costa and Andrew Tanaksy, respectively. Both Torrey and Escalante took their hosting duties seriously. Each of the participating towns had community events with music and food, then showed up in force to cheer on the racers and their support teams. —Insider

Thanks, Henrieville Citizens
Mayor Dave Roberts and the Henrieville Town Board (Dale Pollock, Cliff Mathews, Lisa Chynoweth, Norm Davis, and Marie Jaggar) would like to thank all those who had a hand in helping our town with our recent water break. We would not have been able to get water back up and running for our townspeople without you. In particular, many thanks to Brett Chynoweth, Alma Fletcher, Larry Rose, Carson DeMille at Jones and DeMille, Leland Pollock, County Commissioners, Drinking Water Board, Ruby’s Inn, residents of Bryce Valley. There was so much help. But, as a Board, we especially wish to thank our Henrieville Residents for their patience, understanding, and cooperation as we worked to get our system working again. It is great to see a community pull together, watching out for each other, delivering water, helping in any way possible. We cannot thank you enough. Signed—Mayor Dave Roberts, Dale Pollock, Cliff Mathews, Lisa Chynoweth, Norm Davis, Marie Jaggar

is the first to recognize that the success of the festival is a team effort. As for the impact of the festival in the area, Carol says, “The Women’s Redrock Music Festival gives independent female musicians, from all over, a magical setting to perform in Southeastern Utah. Their positive experience at past festivals has created a great reputation for WRMF, which draws new performers and attendees each year.” The festival is a nonprofit organization and is operated by loyal volunteers— some who have worked every festival. Each year, through the sale of raffle tickets, WRMF donates a scholarship to Wayne County High School. Throughout the year, volunteers solicit donations and sponsorships to fund the festival. “We’ve expanded our corps of volunteers hoping to get new (and younger) people interested in seeing the festival continue. Whoever works on the festival knows it’s a labor of love,” said Laurie Wood, director of operations. And the festival
does change from year to year, for the better. New last year was the addition of Wasatch/ Squatters Brewery as a sponsor and vendor for beverages. It will be back this year with some new brews and something concocted especially for the festival. Also joining the festival for the first time is Mountain West Cider. Natalia Zukerman will conduct a “Songwriting with a Painter’s Eye” workshop where participants create image-based songs and song-based images. Yoga, arts and crafts, nonprofit organizations, food vendors, performers’ merchandise will convince festival goers that WRMF at Robber’s Roost in Torrey is a lovely way to spend a weekend in August. Jeri Tafoya is the genius behind the line-up. When one festival wraps up, Jeri begins listening to music and attending concerts. Hundreds and hundreds of hours go into her selecting the performers for the festival. Not only do the women need to be talented and independent, but they have to blend with the entire line-up. With the technical direction of Lu Prickett and the sound engineered by Jack Arnott, Jeri produces each night’s line up
to create the tempo, the energy, and distinctive emotional atmosphere—something Jeri senses intuitively—and what the festival is known for. This year’s line up features some of the original performers from 2007—Sister Wives, Mary Tebbs, Kathryn Warner and Leraine Hostmanshoff— as well as festival favorites, TOBY and ELLIS. Friday night’s headliner is Sick of Sarah. Also appearing on Friday are some local favorites, Canyons as well as the group Johanna Hohanna. Some of the performers on Saturday will include Cheryl Wheeler, Crys Matthews, Natalia Zukerman, Mona Tavakoli, and Kristy Lee. Saturday night’s headliner, from Brooklyn, New York, is Hunter Valentine. Returning for their fourth year are emcees Georgette Leventis & Steph Pappas. Festival is August 12-13 at Robber’s Roost Bookstore, Torrey, Utah. Tickets are available online at womensredrockmusicfest.com Wayne County and Garfield County residents can buy ticket for ½ price at the gate with current ID. —Women's Redrock Music Festival
Boating Safety Cont'd from page 1
ell while they were boating after dark. Three children were ejected from the boat, one of them an 8-year-old boy whose left arm and left leg were amputated by the boat propeller. The boy’s 8-year-old stepbrother found him face down in the water, turned him over and rescue-swam him to shore, where he delivered mouth-tomouth breaths. The two adults pulled all three children (wearing lifejackets) back into the boat and returned to Bullfrog Marina, where a helpful bystander gave them a ride to the Bullfrog Clinic. There, rangers met the vehicle and used tourniquets and padding to stop the bleeding. The boy was airlifted to Phoenix Children’s Hospital, where surgery was performed to reattach his arm. The accident is under investigation by Utah State Parks. In the aftermath of these tragic accidents, Lance Mattson, acting Chief Ranger at Glen Canyon National Recreation Area, urged boaters to put safety first. He said boaters should stay in the main channel and follow the buoys that mark it, especially at night. “If you will be boating after dark, use GPS to lay a good track in daylight hours to follow back in the dark,” Mattson said. Billy Shott, superintendent of Glen Canyon National Recreation Area, said Lake Powell averages six drowning deaths a year, the majority of which could be prevented by something as simple as wearing a life jacket. “It kills me to see family vacations end abruptly in tragedy,” Shott said. “No one comes to Lake Powell expecting to have a family member leave on a medivac flight.” —National Park Service
Tips to Prevent the Spread of Back-toSchool Germs Back-to-school is an exciting time of year for families, but it also means new exposures to germs. From school desks found to have 400 times more bacteria than the average toilet, to personal items like backpacks and cellphones, germs are everywhere. Taking steps to reduce exposure can make for a healthier school year ahead. Remember to wash hands and your items frequently -- did you know that backpacks have 10,000 germs per square inch? Then, use shelf liner in areas of your home where school items are stored for extra protection. Try using Easy Liner brand shelf liner by Duck brand with Clorox antimicrobial protection, which protects the liner from the growth of mold and mildew. Plus, the liners can be tossed in the wash for easy cleaning. Parents can help keep classrooms cleaner by providing teachers with disinfecting wipes and shelf liner to protect desks, drawers and shelves. —Statepoint Media

AUGUST 7, 2016 - It should be no secret that when I turn out the lights at night I always make sure there is a pile of books by my bed. I am a light sleeper in case any tweekers running around out there were wondering… a real light sleeper!! I have been on this Wayne County history kick for some time now, I can’t help myself, it's really interesting and in some cases misunderstood. Little old Wayne County ladies have been telling me their life stories as long as I have lived here, so much so that they often make me lunch so they can tell me more, needless to say I don’t mind. Bicknell has always been a story that has never set all that well with me and over time I have come to found out why. Bicknell's sister city Blanding has a similar story and in a matter of a couple thousand more words we will all know why. When I first moved to Wayne County in the '80s I was always confused why it was the Thurber Ward and the Thurber DUP and both buildings sat smack dab in the middle of Bicknell Town? Being the curious kind I ask around and the first person to give me a straight answer was Dick Brinkerhoff and if you knew Dick Brink he always let you know what he was thinking in no uncertain terms. For city folk they never can quite get the swing of the name Bicknell. I had some city friends come down once to play Bluegrass music in Bicknell, they stopped at the Country Café and said they were looking for the town of Big Nail? I don’t know who it was sitting at the counter but who ever it was didn’t even look up and just pointed and said “thataway,” probably Paul Brown. Over time I did some digging on my own and with some help from Albert King Thurber’s family members I learned a lot about Albert King Thurber and the how Bicknell came to be. And if the truth were to be known A.K. Thurber’s family are not all that happy about it. Keeping in mind that space in the Insider is a premium so I won’t bore you with a lot of A.K. Thurber’s early history in Rhode Island but much of it turns out to be quite a coincidence. Something I found to be quite interesting was that
in his early days A.K. Thurber was a comb maker. Manufacturing was big business in the east during the first part of the 19th century and making combs was quite lucrative. To manufacture combs, small factories used waterpower to operate presses that cut combs out of softened cattle horns. These combs mostly were decorative ones that women wore in their hair and produced to look like they were made from tortoise shells. A.K. was quite good at his job and in his diary he mentions later in life that on slow days he could often be found making combs. It was in 1848 that A.K. read the news from California of the gold that had been discovered there and he immediately came down with a fever, the gold fever and set his sights west. If you have lived in Utah more than a week you know that during 1847 and '48 that every dusty wagon trail west was full of Pioneering Mormons. So it shouldn’t be much of a surprise that A.K. Thurber ran into a few of them on the trail and was impressed by the likes of Brother Ephraim Hanks and Andrew Lamoreaux. As history tells us the well traveled trails, especially in 1848, most of them were headed in the direction of Salt Lake, which is where Albert eventually found himself. Estimates of gold rushers who passed through the Salt Lake Valley in 1849 ranged from 5,000 to 10,000. Most gold rushers stayed about one week then pushed on. Often they traded their worn out trail teams for new stock. Albert’s companions didn’t want to linger but Albert did. At once twenty-three year old Albert found himself a stranger in the new two-year-old city of Salt Lake. In Albert’s diary he writes that on the 24th of July 1849 he was in the midst of a huge party. There was a parade with marching bands, dignitaries, flags and constant cannon and musket fire. One of the most amazing things he had ever been witness to. This 24th of July Mormon celebration would go down in history as the longest running celebration west of the Rockies. By trade Albert was a factory worker but he quickly found that almost all of the Salt Lake residents farmed but Albert was also good with teams
of horses so finding work was not a problem for young Albert. Albert instantly found a job working on the farm of Benjamin F. Johnson and worked along the side of another young man named Jacob D. Burnham, a Mormon. Albert discussed Mormon teachings with Benjamin Johnson and observed how Mormons lived their religion. On one hot sweaty day Albert observed a Mormon ordinance performed on a sick man and as if it was meant to be he immediately understood the principle and what it was for. Albert had made a promise to his mother that he would return in twelve months but now he was struggling with his pledge. It was also about this time that he felt he was destined to embrace Mormonism and be baptized. In short order Albert asked his friend Jacob Burnham to baptize him, Jacob agreed and on September 2nd 1849 Albert was confirmed by his employer Benjamin Johnson. On September 28th, 1849 a gold train of eight wagons and fourteen men arrived in Salt Lake from California. Earlier in the year, in April, Apostle Amasa Lyman, Porter Rockwell, and some others had gone to California to collect tithing from several hundred Mormons working in the gold field. Elder Lyman sent back the gold train carrying $25,000.00 to $30,000.00, mostly in gold. The gold cargo triggered a flurry of activity at church headquarters and the gold was quickly minted into much needed currency. Again Albert felt the fever, but during the gold rush year the Mormon leaders had warned the Saints against the signs and symptoms of gold fever and the great temptations it provoked. Albert got his big gold chance when LDS Church President Brigham Young authorized a band of merry men to go to the gold mines “for their own advantage,” so Albert jumped at the opportunity. Like many others that were sick with the fever, it didn’t pan out, so disillusioned and broke Albert high tails it back to Utah where he finds adventure and purpose beyond his wildest dreams.

The Utah WPU As the school year begins and students again make their way to our buildings, I thought I would take a minute to remind everyone the process we use to fund public education. Public education as we know it was assumed to mean an education system that was funded with public dollars. But in the last decade or so, the definition has become more complex. It including such things as ADA (Average Daily Attendance) and ADM (Average Daily Membership), with student tracking to guarantee no local school gets more than the allocated funds meant to cover a student’s 180-day school year. This allocation is called the WPU or the Weight Pupil Unit which is equal to a little over $3,000 per student. Our local schools are allocated a WPU for each student in the district to cover their instructional costs for the year. Additional WPU’s are given to the district to pay professional staff costs, additional program expectations, and as an incentive for schools to perform or offer students additional programs such as CTE (Career and Technical Education). The WPU accounts for roughly half of the state’s education funding to schools. It is allotted based on student population. As school populations grow, they receive more WPUs but if populations drop, WPUs also drop and our money to instruct students drops too. Welcome back to school. Have a great year! —Tracy Davis, Superintendent, Garfield County School District
District Provided Computers Garfield County School District will be providing every 4th -12th grade student the option of using a district provided computer to access new digital district and classroom curriculum. All that is required of parents to take advantage of the offering is to purchase an insurance policy to cover replacement or repair should the student run into a problem. Parents can opt out or purchase their own equipment and bypass the need for the insurance. New electronic curriculums allow your students to access homework, tutorials, and other help solutions with or without a home internet connection. If you have an internet connection at home your students can access their work using your home internet connection. For those that do not have a home internet connection, select locations will made available so families can drive to a “HotSpot” and access the student’s materials after hours without having to come directly to the school. More on these “HotSpot” locations will come later. Using our new interactive software, parents are encouraged to get involved with their students education as these new computers are rolled out. The best way to find out what is going on is to ask your student to show you. Students currently have the ability to work on group projects from their individual homes and have the work update in real time for all participant computers. Teachers can access writing assignments and comment in real time to one or more students. Parents can track successes, failures, and work with their students to find a solution at home and/or at school. Access to school lunch balances and other materials can be available at home with or without internet access. Please watch for additional information coming in the future. —Jason Eyre, IT Director, Gqrfield County School District

he Panguitch Baseball team got off to a roaring start last week. On Tuesday they drove up to Pinnacle High, it is in the City of Price, and beat them in both the varsity and JV games to start the season off on the right foot. Because of all the rain down south, Valley could not host their annual Jeff Wood memorial tournament and so it was held here. I have been told this their 8th year that this event has been staged. I hope I got this young man’s name right, he was hit by a line drive in the chest and it caused his heart to stop. The Bobcats won their first two games over Tabbiona and Green River, before losing to Piute by two runs, after committing 5 costly errors. Piute is expected to win state this year, so it looks like the Cats are going to have another good team. They finished off the tournament with a big win over the Wayne Badgers. The Cats scored a lot of runs in these games and you can look forward to some fun games. As soon as I get a schedule I will post when and where the games will be played.

Choosing an Estate Planning Attorney Choosing an estate planning attorney can be as complex as choosing any other professional. If you are not somewhat educated about estate planning, it can be very difficult to know if the attorney is qualified. Even if you have spent time learning about estate planning, it can still be difficult to know which attorney will be best for you and your family. The following are suggestions in selecting an estate planning attorney who will meet the needs of your estate: First, you must select an attorney who is qualified. Regardless of the size of your estate or your family's circumstances, you should strongly consider using an attorney who specializes in estate planning. Even in a small community, there are a number of attorneys who dedicate their practices to estate planning. Utilization of an attorney who has committed his or her practice to estate planning should assure you of better service at a lower price. Because much of an attorney's fee is based on the time it will take to complete a task, an attorney who focuses exclusively on estate planning will be more capable of completing your estate planning needs more efficiently than an attorney who only occasionally addresses estate planning issues. Additionally, an attorney who has dedicated his or her practice to one area of the law is likely to be more enthusiastic about that area. This enthusiasm will benefit you as a
by JeFFery J. mCkenna client because the attorney will be more willing to take the time to research a new issue unique to your family and more willing to take time to educate you about your estate plan. Second, in addition to picking an attorney who limits his or her practice to estate planning, you should use an attorney who is willing and capable of explaining your estate plan in a manner that you can understand. Although it can be a difficult and time-consuming task, it is critical that you understand your estate plan. If you do not understand your estate plan, you will not be able to properly implement it. Individuals who purchase “estate plans” at seminars are rarely properly served. The attorney is usually not available after the seminar to properly address questions or concerns the client may have. Seminars should be attended for educational purposes and not for the purchasing of an “estate plan.” Third, you must select an attorney who is capable of handling your specific situation at a fee that is acceptable to you. One of the best ways to know if an attorney is capable of handling your specific situation is to talk to other professionals involved in estate planning. Accountants, financial planners, insurance agents, and bankers are all excellent sources to consult for estate planning attorney referrals. Additionally, other professionals should be familiar with what range of fees the different attorneys charge. Although I do not believe the fee for estate plan-
ning should be the main factor in selecting an estate planning attorney, it is, of course, a primary concern. Significantly, the fee charged does not always represent the quality of the estate plan. Many experienced and capable estate planning attorneys actually charge less for their services than less experienced and less qualified planners. In conclusion, there are several factors that should be considered in the selection of an estate planning attorney. After considering the items discussed in this article and after meeting with the attorney, the most important factor may just be how does the estate planning attorney make you feel when you are with him or her. You should feel comfortable and not intimidated. Most importantly, the estate planning attorney you select should make you feel that he or she is there to serve your and your family’s needs and should never act like your needs are a burden.

After impatiently following a slow-moving pickup truck for several miles on a hilly two-lane road, we decided to stop in the next town for lunch and let the truck get far ahead. We had a leisurely meal, and then pulled back onto the road. Just ahead of us was another vehicle pulling out from a different restaurant. It was the same truck
Great Grandma!
Shelby, 15, was visiting grandma for five days and helping around the house and yard to earn some money. They also played board games, went swimming, and went out for dinner. Shelby's comment after it all was: "You're sure old, Grandma, but you're really fun!"
Fixing it Yourself
One day in line for the automatic teller I overheard: "Gee, I don't get it." "What's wrong?" "My card wont work." "Did anything happen to it?" "I don't think so. It wasn't working very well for a while, so I rubbed the strip on the back with a magnet to recharge it. Now it isn't working at all!"

Brenda had been stressing the importance of independence to her granddaughter, Shila, 7, while they were waiting for the 4th of July fireworks to begin. She felt she had made her point until Shila thoughtfully said, "You know Nana, you can live without your independence. Amber's doctor took out her independence and she's still living."
Do You Get it? Huh? Do You?
I asked my mailman why my letters were all wet... he said, "Postage dew.".

While traveling in the truck Sydney, soon-to-be-5, said, "I know what I'm going to name two of my kids - Indiana Jones and Hans Solo!" One of his big brothers said, "Awesome!" Sydney's mom said, "Oh, I like those names. Those are your favorite names?" "Yeah … and you know what, Mama? I like them so much I think I'll name four of my kids that: Two Indiana Jones and two Hans Solo
Doctor?
Janet had to take her grandson, Hunter, 4, into the office with her last week to finish up some work she was doing in a medical office. To occupy him, she took him into the Play therapy room to pick a couple toys that they could take into the room Janet was working in. He played with those toys for about five minutes and then asked, "Mimi, can I play in that toy room?" Janet replied, "No, you can't ... the doctors here use this room to make kids feel better." He went back to playing for another minute and then said, "Mimi ... I don't feel very good."
Truth
One day I asked my two-year-old daughter, Catherine, where her slippers were."Downstairs in the kitchen," she told me. "What are they doing there?" I asked. "Nothing," she replied. "They can't walk because they don't have feet in them right now."

by Mack Oetting ~ mackoetting @gmail.com The rain sure greened up most of the lawns in town, boy is that grass growing fast, I need to cut my lawn every 5 days, however it ain’t going to happen. Here in town the rain was great, but some of the nearby towns really got bombed. Kanab made the news with a lot of flooding and the baseball tournament in Valley got rained out and Escalante got almost 2” from one storm and a lot of flooding. It does look like we will be going back to a stretch of really fine weather, which always makes living in Garfield Co. a perfect place to be, this time of the year not too hot or too cold. The summer Olympics are in full swing and I have been watching our country's women's gymnastics team, talk about perfection they are really something to behold. Brazil is the host country and the City of Rio is putting it on and they are doing it on the cheap, they only spent 5 billion, this compares to London’s 12 billion and China’s 22 billion. Brazil has been really an economic mecca in South America for many years, has fallen on some hard times, with high unemployment, these games should really help out the economy. Here in Panguitch we are hosting the County Fair, instead of me listing all of the
events, just look at the back page of last week’s Insider, it has a complete program of all of the events that are happing. There is so much more going on than I ever knew, so many fun things to do, so grab your kids and grandkids and take part in this really fun event. I wish the City and the County would spend a few bucks on advertising the events that go on here in town. A good example of this last week there was a Senior Pro Rodeo here for two nights, unless you are part of the horsey set you probably didn’t know it was here. I have been to a couple of these senior rodeos and really enjoyed them. You have to be over 55 to compete and this is where old raw hiders go to have fun. These riders are really good and put on a great show; I believe they limit each event to 8 riders so the excitement moves really fast. Spend a couple of bucks on advertising, it will pay off tenfold. David Frandsen’s Physical Therapy building is finally finished and it really adds to the town. David expects to be open for business sometime this week and plans on having an open house sometime in the near future. David is an expert in rehabbing physical injuries and with a little pain as pos-
sible he will have you good as new in no time at all. A number of years ago, a very large private school out in Loa closed its doors, then a few years ago we lost a private school here in Panguitch. Talking to Tad Draper, a long time employee (15 years) at the school in Koosharem, it too has closed its doors. It seems that these schools get some of their funding from the government and they have put so many restrictions on them that it made it too difficult and unprofitable to stay open. Tad is now working for the health deptartment in both Wayne and Garfield Counties. When I was a little kid, we had an ice box and this giant of a man would deliver a 50 pound block of ice to us twice a week. Oh when I grew up I so wanted to be an ice man. I delivered newspapers door to door twice a week when I was 8 years old, for this I had to collect 10 cents once a month, I got my 6 year old sister to do the collecting, because they didn’t have to pay, some of patrons could get real mean, but they were much nicer to her. I sold newspapers on the corner, walking down the middle lane of traffic to sell them to stopped motorists, for this I got 2 cents a copy and could make $2 an
evening. Times change and all of these jobs are no longer in existence. Another job that I thought would be fun and manly, was to a lumber jack. Talking to Debbie Frandsen up at the K&D’s saw mill that job has bit the dust also. The last chainsaw lumber jack they hired was back in 2006. I saw their tree cutter downer in action across the street, when Kevin brought this monster machine down to cut three large trees down from one of my neighbor’s back yard. It took all of 7 seconds to bring down each one of the trees, this machine grabs onto the tree and lays it down on the ground where it could be taking care of. I thought when these trees are fallen, then a guy with a chain saw would cut away the limbs, not so, there is an even bigger machine called a processor, that is fed the trees and it cuts off the limbs and then cuts the tree into its proper length. I am so glad I am old and don’t have to worry about figuring out what I am going to be when I grow up. Don’t forget to register for the ATV Rally, it will be here in one week. Mack O.

Anybody planning on doing daycare when school starts? Or anyone willing to watch a 2 year old little boy on Monday, Wednesday's and Friday's?!!! Please call Amanda Johnson if you are interested in taking care of this little boy. Welcome home to Tanner Barton. He looks great and his family looks very happy to see him again after two years. So glad to know that Catherine Littlefield is home and doing very well after having three stents placed in her heart. She sounds wonderful and I am glad she is going to be alright. Even better now. Love you Catherine. The rains came down so hard the other day that there were floods in the washes around here. Kathy Mecham was driving by the Cannonville Wash of the Paria River just in time to see the big water wall coming down. She posted videos on her Facebook page. Wow was it noisy. It was literally coming down in sheets and hard. We sure need the moisture but a bit slower so it stays in the ground. Hope no one had any problems at their homes with the storm. ISO this large rocking chair! I sold it two years ago and my sister wants it because it was my mom's! It has a large spindle on the top left side that was sanded off. please help me find it! Contact Mindy Grimshaw on Facebook if you know anything about this rocking chair. Time for soccer sign ups! If your kids would like to play please contact Fred Beesley in Cannonville. We are joining the Panguitch league for 6 weeks of Tuesday games beginning August 30th. I just found out we roster for them Monday morning. Escalante threw down the Welcome Carpet for the Tour of Utah on August 2nd. Mayor Jerry Taylor and a host
of interested community members started meeting in February with the idea of putting on something special for the innumerable visitors that would be passing through the town on Monday evening before gathering for race events on Tuesday. According to one visiting reporter the welcome was a tremendous event and one he will never forget. The food (very tasty), the people, the scenery and all that was planned was very welcoming and enjoyable. Thanks to Escalante for helping the riders enjoy their stay in our area. Condolences go out to Iris Burr on the passing of her sweet husband Arnell Burr. Her sister Nora and son Richard are with her right now and everyone else is coming home to support Iris. Arnell and Iris loved to watch the Jazz games together and cheer them on. He will be missed but we want Iris to know that she is in our prayers and thoughts at this time. His funeral will be held in Cannonville Ward at 1:00 P.M. with viewing at 11:00 to 12:30 before the services. We lost a dear person this past week when Dixie Shakespear passed away. She was such a special person and so kind and loving. We have missed her for quite a while since she has been living in the Panguitch Care Center for the last little while. We want her family to know that we have them in our thoughts and prayers. Theron Coon passed away last week. He was the husband of the former Laurie Dee Holly who came from Cannonville and was the Postmistress for Tropic for many years. Laurie passed away several months ago. We want the family to know we have them in our hearts and prayers. Theron's funeral will be held in Salt Lake City on Saturday the 13th of August.
A Baby Shower was given by Katie Beesley and Teresa Larson for Tandy Chynoweth at the Cannonville Ward at 5:00 to 7:00 P.M. Kaden and Tandy are expecting a little boy and it is due just about any day now. We wish them the best and that all is well. D.U.P. Jubilee will be held on Aug. 13th at the Tropic Heritage Center. It starts at 10:00 A.M. and a luncheon will be served. Congratulations to Dan Cloud on being made a High Priest in the Escalante Stake. Landon Platt received his Mission Call to be on a Church Service Mission to support those who live at home serving their missiions. He will start serving on September 12th and his Farewell will be on August 28th with his parents, Ken and Artoise Platt. Released today from their callings were the Young Women's Presidency. Released were: President Brooke Palmer, 1st Counselor Heather A. Johnson, 2nd Counselor Nancy Chynoweth, and Secretary, Cathy Rushton.

Called to fill these positions were: Young Woman President, Janece Pollock, 1st Counselor Krista Neighbor, 2nd Counselor Collette Mathews, Secretary Lonee Shakespear, Personal Progress Advisor Brenda Rose, Primary Organist Wynona Henderson, and Sunday School Teacher is Brooke Palmer. Visiting was Dustin and Shiloh Leslie from Dillon Montana. It was good to see them again. Looking at the calendar you will see that school starts
on the 24th of August. This week is also the Garfield County Fair in Panguitch. An Eagle Court of Honor will be held for Clay Mortensen and Zennon Hutchings, both of Tropic. It will be held on August 14th at 4:00 P.M. in the Tropic Ward. For his Eagle Project Clay removed the Kiosk Visitor Information and doing some landscaping he planted five trees to beautify the area for the Memorial Veteran's Park. Zennon for his project built the foundations that will hold the three Memorial Stone Pillars. They have been ordered and will contain all the over 400 names of the Veterans from our area. Zennon ordered the pillars and hopes they will arrive before he leaves on his mission to Idaho in a week. Everyone is looking forward to seeing the completion of the Memorial Stone Pillars with the names on them.. Money was raised by donations for these projects. They are earthquake proof. A big thank you goes out to Bryce Valley Builders for help with the cement and to all the others who helped in any way to complete this part of the Veteran's Memorial Park. It will be a beautiful addition to the area and is in honor of all of the men and women who served their country. Clay is the son of Bishop Shawn and Crystal Mortensen of Tropic and Zennon Hutchings is the nephew of Mike and Lisa Ahlstrom. The Friends of Scouting and the Pennies by the Inch campaigns are being conducted now. Be sure to try and attend the Garfield County Fair and drive safely.

PANGUITCH - Trenity Dale Gilbert, 18, passed away at 10:30, the morning of August 8, 2016 in Richfield. He was born October 24, 1997 in Panguitch to Trampas and Elizabeth Ilkenhans Gilbert. Trent spent a good 18 years with his family in happiness, despite his disease. Trent was diagnosed with Muscular Dystrophy when he was eight years old. Though it was a hard trial to handle he made it look like a piece of cake for most his years. Through everything, Trent faced it all with strength that was more than just physical. Trent's greatest goal was to make it to the celestial kingdom and celebrate his life with his father, who preceeded him in death ten years before. He especially loved his grandfather, Christopher Gilbert, who spared no pain, along with the rest of the family, to help him. His grandpa was his hero. Trent is like no other before him. His courage and faith gave everyone around him hope. Trent had humor and love for life, even though he was eager to go to heaven and escape the pain that was part of his body. He died well and most certainly will be missed. We know that some day we will see Trent again, but this time he will physically be the strong young man he always was. He is survived by his mother, Elizabeth (Todd) Branin, Richfield; siblings: Adrianna Gilbert, Dallas Gilbert, Sierra Gilbert, Trampas Gilbert, Austin Branin and Cheyanne Branin; grandparents: Chris and Marla Gilbert, Curtis and Chris Ilkenhans; great-grandparents: Don & Myrna Mangum. Preceded in death by his father, Trampas Gilbert. Funeral services will be held Friday, August 12, 2016 at 11:00 a.m. in the Panguitch 1st Ward Chapel, 550 South 100 West. Friends may call Thursday evening from 6-8 p.m. at the Magleby Mortuary, 50 South 100 West, Richfield and Friday morning at the ward chapel in Panguitch from 9:30-10:30 a.m. Burial will be in the Panguitch Cemetery.
