GARKANE ENERGY ANNOUNCES ANNUAL MEETING ELECTION RESULTS

Results of Garkane En-ergy’s Director elections were announced during each of the Cooperatives Annual Meeting Sessions held in Orderville, Utah, April 25, 2012; and Loa, Utah, April 26, 2012. Incumbent Director, Randy Brown - Kanab, ran unopposed and will con-tinue to serve as a Board Member for District 7. In Garkane Districts 2 and 5, Board President, Carl, Boyd, Jr. announced Incumbent Directors Trent Hunt – Loa and Terry Griffiths – Orderville, as the winners of their respec-tive District elections. Mr. Eric Torgerson – Loa ran against Director Hunt, and

Mr. Shane Frost - Order-ville ran against Director Griffiths. The evenings each in-cluded a free barbeque for the public, a health fair from local area EMT crews, displays, and a business meeting, which reviewed election results and a video of the past year’s accom-plishments and financial information. This year’s business ses-sions also included youth speakers from last year’s Utah Rural Electric Associ-ation (UREA) Youth Lead-ership Challenge, which was co-sponsored by Gar-kane and several other Co-operatives in Utah, Nevada, and Wyoming.

MIRACULOUS SURVIVAL OF MAINE HIKER IN REMOTE GARFIELD COUNTY

59- year old Victoria Grover of Wade, Maine is alive and OK after spend-ing 4 days with a broken leg and no food in a remote hiking area in Garfield County. Grover, an avid outdoorswoman and phy-sician’s assistant, decided to visit the Sand Creek area after having taken an outdoor course there from BYU 40 years ago. She had planned only to do a small day hike, and parked her vehicle at the Hell’s Back-bone road, to walk from there to Sand Creek and back. But it got dark before Grover was able to make it back to her car, and so she stayed the night in the desert. The next morning (Wednesday) she jumped off a 4 foot ledge and broke her leg just above her an-kle. Grover scooted to the Sand Creek, and was able to drink the water, but other than a few light snacks, she had no food or shelter. Gro-ver, who also suffers from Type 2 diabetes, says she

survived by laying in the sun during the daylight to sleep, and staying awake at night. The bed and breakfast she stayed at (Boulder Mountain Guest Ranch) called the Garfield County Sheriff’s office when she didn’t check out Thursday as scheduled. Fortunately, deputies were able to find her car rental agreement in her room, which helped them locate her vehicle on the Hell’s Backbone road. Search and rescue crews were unable to locate her, and the Utah Highway Pa-trol search helicopter was called in to search. Search and Rescue teams on horse-back were able to find her tracks leading downstream, and at 9:30 Saturday morn-ing she was found by the UHP helicopter. An EMT on the helicopter treated the woman on sight, and then the helicopter transported her to Garfield Memorial Hospital, where she was treated for exposure and for

her broken leg. Garfield County Sheriff Deputy Ray Gardner says “It’s truly a miraculous sur-vivial, if we hadn’t been able to find her car rental agreement to locate her car, we’d still be looking for her, and I feel certain she wouldn’t have survived much longer.” Gardner, a native of Boulder and fre-quently heading search par-ties for lost hikers in his ju-risdiction, also says “Many things can go wrong even on a simple day hike. It’s very important to let some-one one know what your itinerary is: where exactly you’re going and when ex-actly you plan to be back.” Garfield County County Sheriff Danny Perkins says “We want to thank the Gar-field County Search and Rescue team along with the UHP helicopter crew for their dedication, hard work, and many, many hours of training and expertise. Be-cause of them, we were able to save a life today.”

STATE OF UTAH MEDICAID AND CHIP SITE HACKED

Originally the State of Utah reported the number of individuals to be af-fected by their site being hacked to be approximately 25,000. However in the newest report the estimates have climbed to a stagger-ing 780,000 people. Stolen information in the breach includes Social Security Numbers, Names, Date of Birth and Address. The State has taken the measure of notifying those people whose “sensitive” data was taken, but has not taken specific action in notifying those individuals whose “non-sensitive” informa-tion was taken. The questions when something like this happens on such a large scale are knowing exactly what to do in order to make sure your identity, and the identity of your children are protected. Unfortunately the growing trend in Identity Theft is to target the information of minors. The hackers do this realizing the likelihood of anyone realizing a minor’s information has been taken is minimal due to the fact

that minors do not often engage in large purchasing that would require the buy-er’s credit to be ran. This is where an Identity Theft Protection company can step in and help you do many things associated with protecting your identi-ty. LegalShield specifically is a company that has spe-cialized, with the assistance of Kroll, in Identity Theft Protection for decades. There are many details that set LegalShield’s Identity Theft Shield apart from other companies who offer similar services. Unlike some of the other options available today, the Identity Theft Shield is not a do-it-yourself kit that depends on time off work and away from family to get this seri-ous crime resolved. Iden-tity Theft Shield allows you to access your credit report and score quickly and con-veniently online, through our secure website. The world’s leading risk con-sulting agency, Kroll, Inc. will monitor your credit file and suspicious activ-ity will be brought to your

attention, providing you with early detection. With LegalShield you have the experts on your side! Just call the toll-free number on the back of your Identity Theft Shield card, to speak with a trained expert. They will help you determine if you are a victim of iden-tity theft, and provide ex-pert restoration services for you, so you can get back to work and back to your life. And our Identity Theft Shield can be conveniently coupled with a LegalShield Plan, which gives you ac-cess to experienced law-yers who can advise you on legal issues that surface, including identity theft re-lated legal issues, and so much more! If you have any inter-est or questions about the above information and how to get help ensuring that you and your children’s identities are safe please feel free to contact us in the following ways: • Email-terrencemitchell@legalshield.com • Website-terrencemitchell.legalshield.com • Phone-435.463.0773

DANCE ACADEMY DANCE REVIEW On Saturday, April 28th, the Dance Academy held their year end dance review. Their teach-er is Jes-sica Stewart with Mindy Gr imshaw as an as-s i s t a n t . There were many hap-py young ladies as they danced their hearts out and en-t e r t a i n e d p a r e n t s and friends and made their teach-ers proud. Elisabeth Ahlstrom was also helping along with many others that I could not see. The theme was “Around the World” and they visited countries such as Ireland, Mexico, America, Hawaii, Africa, France, Japan, Spain, and the Gypsies. It was well done and you could tell that the dancers had done their practicing and they were all wonderful. Their cos-

tumes were very beautiful and they looked so happy in them. Kudos to everyone

involved, especially the dancers. You were great. Thanks for a fun evening.

Currently, in Garfield School District, Escalante High School and Bryce Val-ley High School are on an eight period block schedule with four classes per day consisting of ninety min-utes for each class. Both of these two schools provide eight classes for their stu-dents. In Panguitch High School we have seven peri-ods per day with forty sev-en minute classes. There

is a need to align the three high schools with one com-mon schedule. We started to research a possible sched-ule we could implement in the District. A team of ad-ministrators, councilors and teachers visited Enterprise High School in December to investigate their modi-fied 10 period block sched-ule. One interesting point, of all the people who visited Enterprise, not one of them

came back opposed to this model and a teacher from a seven period day and an eight period day both par-ticipated in the school visit. The team reported the ad-vantages of this schedule to me with an encouragement to continue to look at the possibility of incorporating this schedule into the high schools for students in the District. In the April 19, Board meeting our two council-ors discussed the pros and cons of this new schedule and suggested it would be the best schedule we could provide for the students. In this meeting, it was passed to move forward with im-plementation of a 10 pe-riod block schedule for the next school year. It will consist of five class peri-ods taught one day and five additional classes taught the following day, thus al-lowing students to take 10 classes. The current plan will allow students to take math every day. Language Arts will also be taught ev-ery day for the 7th and 8th grade and every other day for 9th -12th grade. Each class will be approximately 70 minutes in length. Mr. Bennett and Mr. Jessen are in the process of develop-ing a common schedule for PHS, EHS and BVHS. Every schedule has advan-

tages and disadvantages, regardless of if it is a seven period day, an eight period block, or a 10 period block. Since incorporating the 10 period block schedule, En-terprise test scores consist of an increase in language arts of 79% in 2009 to 88% in 2010 and 92% in 2011. In mathematics, Enter-prise also showed growth from 56% in 2009 to 82% in 2010 and 88% in 2011. Science also showed an 8% increase with the 10 period block implementation. This block will give stu-dents more choices to take electives which will help in their career path. It has a study session every other day to allow students to receive help in areas they may be struggling. The EDNET classes from USU align within two minutes of the beginning time and ending time throughout the day. With a unified Dis-trict schedule we can now broadcast classes across the District electronically to provide equity in education, regardless of which com-munity students live. These are just a few of the advan-tages we know exist with this new schedule. One fi-nancial disadvantage may be it will require additional staff (possibly six class pe-riods) because we will be teaching more classes. I am willing to work on se-curing this funding to make this schedule work because I know it is the best sched-ule we can provide for the students in Garfield School District. In the next few weeks, high schools will be hold-ing a public meeting with parents and student s to discuss the 10 period block schedule and answer any questions you might have. I have asked the principals to hold these meetings before the end of May so everyone will know the direction we will be moving as a District. Superintendent Ben Dalton

WHS Auditorium This one of Shake-speare’s most well known plays and comedies. Much of the play takes place in the forest where the fairies manipulate the lovers and the actors into silly circum-stances. The play features four interlocking plots: the wed-ding of Duke Theseus to Amazon Queen Hippolyta; the mix-up of love between 2 Athenian couples; the amateur actors preparing a ridiculous play for the wed-ding; and the fight between the fairy queen and king, Titania and Oberon. You must see the hilarious story unfold!

“READING AROUND THE WORLD”

This Spring the Community Council sponsored “Read-ing Around the World” at Loa Elementary. Each class competed to read the most minutes. It was a seven week program where each week the classes traveled to a new continent. Ms. Davis’ A.M. Kindergarten class was the winner for grades K-2 and Mrs. Gehrke’s third grade class was the winner for grades 3-5. The whole school read enough minutes to travel around the world nine times!

Answers for this week

Be A Carrier of Enthusiasm

I’m visiting a friend, “D,” who’s on her fifth can-cer. Yup, that is right, can-cer number five. Yet, she’s so positive, “I’m looking forward to my new chemo tomorrow,” she said enthusiastically and with a smile as we were drove from Cedars-Sinai Medical Center back to Laguna Hills, California. “Why’s that?” I asked. “Because I feel like it’s a new chapter in my life.” “You are amazing.” “Thank you!” she winked. My friend D’s been en-during chemo for the last 17 years after she was first diagnosed with breast can-cer at 29. Yet, she founded this organization, Moms With Cancer (http://www.momswithcancer.org/) and is literally there for other mom’s with cancer. For example, she takes cancer patients to appointments. She feeds them. She gives them presents (i.e., slip-pers, pillows, etc.) to make things more comfortable for them. She even took a homeless woman into her home (who used to be her nanny) who was sleeping in her car for eight months in Montana. D’s like the energizer bunny. She just gets up every day and keeps go-ing. Even today when we went into the chemo room for her blood draw before her new chemo tomorrow. She was laughing with the chemo nurse. Excited. En-thusiastic. All eyes were on her. She brought energy in with her and life into that room. “Enthusiasm is conta-

gious. Be a carrier,” said Susan Rabin. Are you a carrier? If so, how do you carry enthusiasm? If a five time cancer sur-vivor can have enthusiasm, you can too. American poet Ralph Waldo Emerson said, “Nothing great was ever ac-complished without enthu-siasm.” Think about that. Any-thing great you’ve ever done, even if it was joining a new church or finding a new faith, enthusiasm was probably involved. It sure was for me when I became a member of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. I don’t think I’ve ever been quite as enthusi-astic about anything ever in my whole life. But back to D. I think I counted five red wigs on her cabinet today. Although, she doesn’t like to wear them because they’re itchy. Plus, she’s not embarrassed by the little red hair sprouts that she’s now sporting. D feels like her mis-sion in life is to help oth-ers and that through her own struggles with cancer she can do just that. Once a television producer, that career slipped away years ago when, due to treatments and getting sick, she could not keep a job. But God had another job for her. An-other plan. Another career path. Even a better one. And that was to help others. But He knew that she first had to know cancer herself to help those with cancer. I just know how happy God is that He can use her as one of His disciples.

“Every day I pray how God wants to use me to-day?” she told me on the way to Cedars-Sinai. And I’m thinking can she be any more of a ser-vant of our Heavenly Fa-ther? To my friend D. You are my hero. You endure no matter what even when doctors told you that will be on chemo for the rest of your life. American author, W. Clement Stone said, “When you discover your mission, you will feel its demand. It will fill you with enthu-siasm and a burning desire to get to work on it.” Perhaps cancer’s is not what will make you enthusiastic. But find out what it is. And when you do, pray how God wants you to use what He’s given you. And make sure to be excited for your next chap-ter in life because it’s prob-ably not chemo. But if it is, and you are struggling with being enthusiastic while on it, just call D at 949-315-5164. I promise you, if you do, by the end of the call, you will be a carrier of enthusiasm.

At the Office?

My boss phoned me to-

d a y . He said, “Is every-thing okay at the office?” I said, “Yes, it’s all un-der control. It’s been a very busy day, I haven’t stopped for a minute.” “Can you do me a fa-vor?” he asked. I said, “Of course, any-thing, what is it?” He said, “Hurry up and take your shot, I’m right be-hind you on the 7th hole.”

Growing Up Mary and Joan were having lunch when Mary said “My son is really growing up.” Joan said “How do you know that?” Mary replied, “Instead of asking me where he came from, now he refuses to tell me where he is going!”

Hors D’oeuvre As two children watched their mothers prepare par-ty food, one of them asked the other, “What’s an hors d’oeuvre?” The second child replied, “I think it’s part of a ham sandwich that’s been cut into about seventy pieces.”

Two Good Questions A surgeon examined a new patient most carefully. After studying the x-rays, he turned to the man and said, “Could you pay for an operation if I told you it was necessary?” The patient thought for a moment, then said to the doc-tor, “Would you find one necessary if I told you I couldn’t pay for it?”

He will be missed by his wife, Charlotte and family and friends but we know he is now is a much better place. The family wants to thank all who attended the service and Ruby’s Inn for their generous donation of rooms for everyone. I would like to tell you about one of the nicest peo-ple in town. Chester Elmer. Every time you see him he has a smile and a kind word for you. He works at Clarke’s and is always gra-cious and helpful to all. He is the most willing helper and worker around. I just personally want to thank him for making the world a bit brighter each day. The Webelos Den will start meeting on Fridays af-ter school beginning the 4th of May. Dan Fagergren is the leader. It was great seeing Greg and Megan Leech here from South Carolina. They were home on a visit and were looking very happy and content. Their little baby is due the first part of July and we wish them the best of luck. Also visiting was Pace and Amanda Clarke from Cedar City. They are the family members of Wes and Ellen Clarke and Elaine Haas. Update on Charlie Fran-cisco and his wife Eva Dean. Charlie is staying the week in Jubilee House in St. George and comes home weekends and it seems he is beginning to feel better. Eva Dean is staying with her daughter Helena Mortensen in Parowan. We wish them well and hope for a speedy recovery. They would like to be well enough to go to the Temple Sealing of Jus-tin and Sheri Springer and their son Linkin on Sat-urday May 5th in the St. George Temple. Hope you all have a safe week and that you will call or email your news to me for the column. Thanks VS

Pat and I have a busy week coming up, we are leaving for California this afternoon, for a few days. Then it is up to SLC on Thursday for Teah’s Graduation from the U. She is going to Medical School at the University of Wash-ington in Seattle. It’s going to be hectic week, but we are excited about it. Teah would like to thank all the Teachers in the Panguitch schools system that has made this mo-ment possible. Many thanks to Principal Betty Ann Rem-ber, for her kindness and guiding her, to do her very best. Last but not least Janis Henrie, who let a little skinny five year old into the first grade. We have a couple of important events coming up. Mon-day, May 7th is the Community Family Night and it is Parents Empowered to Eliminate Underage Drinking in Utah. There will be a free BBQ dinner and it will be held at 5:30 to 6:00. At 6 the Elementary kids will be singing and there will be games and activities. The guest speaker Doug Murakami is the Alcohol Education Director at the Utah Department of Alcoholic Beverage Control. The Shuttle Bus service out at Bryce Canyon starts to-morrow May 4th and the system employs about 15 people from our area. If you take your friends or family to the Park, the shuttle is the way to go, it stops at all of the overlooks and it is free with your park entrance fee. With more and more traffic in the park, parking gets harder to come by, and you can pick up some information about the park from the drivers that you might not have known. Be-cause this has been such a warm winter, the attendance is really way up for the winter. The Park is starting off with a bang. The 12th annual Astronomy Festival will be moved up to May 17-20. This was done to coincide with a rare Solar Eclipse that will happen on Sunday May 20th around 4pm. No the world won’t come to an end, but this is a whole eclipse of the Sun and it will get dark and will last till 7:30. The next total Eclipse, visible from here will be in 119 years, I ex-pect to be there. There will be huge telescopes in the North Camp grounds parking lot, for your viewing of the galax-ies. Let me warn you, Bryce Canyon is the darkest place on the earth at night, so bring a covered light with you, you can be standing right next to a telescope and not see it, and no your eyes won’t get accustomed to the dark. The Dark Rangers present a very informative program at the amphitheater in the evening, last year the timing was just right and one of our satellites passed over head. On Satur-day there will be Rocket building from 10 to 12 and they will be launching them from 12 to 3 pm. The first 20 kids

ASK A SPECIALIST: Tips for Preventing Child Abuse and Neglect

April is National Child Abuse Prevention Month. Beyond recognizing the signs that a child may be a victim of abuse or neglect, adults can take additional steps to prevent it from hap-pening in their community. Parents can also apply spe-cific alternative behaviors to avoid lashing out at their child. According to Pre-vent Child Abuse America (www.preventchildabuse.org), the following are ten proven ways to help chil-dren grow up in positive, nurturing surroundings. • Be a nurturing parent. Children need to know that they are special, loved and capable of following their dreams. • Help a friend, neighbor or relative. Being a parent isn’t easy. Offer a hand to take care of the children so the parents can rest or spend

time together. • Help yourself. When the big and little problems of your everyday life pile up to the point you feel over-whelmed and out of control, take time out. Don’t take it out on your child. • Learn what to do if your baby won’t stop crying. Never shake a baby. Shak-ing a child may result in se-vere injury or death. • Get involved. Ask your community leaders, clergy, library and schools to de-velop services to meet the needs of healthy children and families. • Lobby to include parent-ing resources at your local library. Perhaps a sign at the check-out desk advertising the availability of such re-sources will increase their use.• Promote programs in school. Teaching children, parents and teachers pre-vention strategies can help keep children safe. • Monitor your child’s tele-vision and video viewing. Watching violent movies and TV programs and play-ing violent games can harm young children. • Report suspected abuse or neglect. If you have rea-son to believe a child has been or is at risk of being harmed, call your local de-partment of children and family services or the local police department. If you or a loved one are worried about controlling emotions when it comes to dealing with a child, con-

sider these alternatives next time the pressures build up to the point that you feel like lashing out.• Take a deep breath… and another. Remember you are the adult.• Close your eyes and imag-ine you’re hearing what your child is about to hear. • Press your lips together and count to 10, or better yet, to 20.• Put your child in a time-out chair, one minute of time per year of age.• Put yourself in a time-out chair. Think about why you are angry. Is it your child, or is your child simply a convenient target for your anger? • Phone a friend. Turn on soothing music. • If someone can watch the children, go outside and take a walk.• Take a hot bath or splash cold water on your face. Hug a pillow.• Pick up a pencil and write down as many helpful words as you can think of. Save the list for future ref-erence.• Call for abuse prevention information at 1-800-CHIL-DREN. Children are little people who do not have the full power of reasoning that adults have. Remembering these tips and that your role is that of nurturer and role model can help you be in control of yourself and the situation without harming anyone ― especially your precious child.

Who Wrote the Pledge of Allegiance? A lot of people had their hands on it, adding as little as a word or two, but the credit for the bulk of the pledge goes to Francis Julius Bellamy (May 18, 1855 – August 28, 1931), a Baptist minister from New York. Bellamy had some interesting political ideas — he was a Christian Socialist who believed in the equal distribution of econom-ic resources in accordance with the teachings of Jesus, but not the distri-bution of voting rights to women or immigrants. By 1891, Bellamy was tired of his ministry and accepted a job from one of his congregants, Daniel S. Ford, owner and editor of Youth’s Compan-ion, a nationally circulated magazine for adolescents. Bellamy was hired to help out the magazine’s premium department, where he worked on a campaign to sell American flags to public schools as a way to solicit subscriptions. By the end of the year, the magazine had sold flags to some 26,000 schools. But there were still more than a few hold-outs. They gave the campaign a shot in the arm by arranging a patriotic program for schools to coincide with the open-ing of the 1892 Columbian Exposition in October, the 400th anniversary of Christopher Columbus’ arrival in the New World. Part of the program would be a new salute to the flag that school-children would recite in unison. That August, just a few weeks be-fore the exposition and mere days from his deadline, Bellamy sat down and composed the pledge. He approached it in part as a response to the Civil War, which was still fresh in the national memory, and decided to focus on the ideas of allegiance and loyalty. Bellmay’s pledge was published in the September 8, 1892, issue of Youth’s Companion as follows: “I pledge allegiance to my Flag and the Republic for which it stands, one nation, indivis-ible, with liberty and justice for all.” Initially, the pledge was accompa-nied with a salute. According to Bel-lamy’s instructions, “At a signal from the Principal, the pupils, in ordered ranks, hands to the side, face the Flag. Another signal is given; every pupil gives the flag the military salute — right hand lifted, palm downward, to a line with the forehead and close to it.” The pledge would then be recited, and at the words “to my Flag,” the “right hand is extended gracefully, palm up-ward, toward the Flag, and remains in this gesture till the end of the affirma-

tion; where-upon all hands immediate-ly drop to the side.” After the pledge had taken root in schools, people started fiddling with it. In 1923 a National Flag Conference, presided over by the American Legion and the Daughters of the American Revolution, decided that “my flag” should be changed to “the flag of the United States,” so newly arrived immi-grant children would not be confused about exactly which flag they were pledging to. The following year, the Flag Confer-ence refined the phrase further, adding “of America.” By 1942, the pledge’s 50th anni-versary, the pledge was ingrained in schools and many states required their public school students to recite it each morning. Around this time, people decided that the extended-arm salute looked a little too much like the Nazi salute, and began to simply keep the right hand over the heart throughout the whole pledge.One Last Tweak... By the next decade, the Knights of Columbus — a Catholic fraternal or-ganization — had adopted a modified pledge that mentioned God for use in their own meetings, and soon began lobbying Congress with calls for ev-eryone to do the same. Other fraternal and religious organizations backed the idea and push-ed the government hard. In 1953, Rep. Louis Rabaut (D-Mich.), proposed an alteration to the pledge in a Congressional bill. Congress ap-proved the addition of the words “un-der God” within the phrase “one nation indivisible” in an Act of Congress, and President Eisenhower got on board the next year at the suggestion of the pas-tor at his church. The act was signed into law in 1954. Its sponsors, anticipating that it would be challenged as a breach of separation of church and state, wrote a disclaimer into the act explaining that the new phrase was not, in fact, religious. “A distinc-tion must be made between the exis-tence of a religion as an institution and a belief in the sovereignty of God,” they wrote. “The phrase ‘under God’ recognizes only the guidance of God in our na-tional affairs.” Of course, not everyone bought the line, and a succession of people all over the country have been challeng-ing the language in the courts for the last half-century.

Lucy Ann Taylor Webster B i c k n e l l – on the morning of April 23, 2012 Lucy was called to ride horses with her daddy. “Ride fast and take chances!” Lucy was born on May 13, 1958 in Salina, Utah, a daughter of Denzel and Jean Taylor. She is the beloved wife of Mat-thew C. Webster and they made their home in Bicknell. Lucy is the phenomenal mother of three daughters. She was most proud of her girls and grandchildren and loved every minute that she spent with them.

She al-ways made sure that her family knew that she loved them and they mattered most to her. She was a Licensed Professional Counselor and loved working in Wilderness Therapy. Lucy had many clients throughout the years and each one was special to her. She made strong connections with them all and touched many lives on a profound and personal level. Lucy had many, many talents. She loved music, played several musical instruments and loved to dance and sing with her family. She loved riding horses and motorcycles, camping in the desert and being pulled behind a boat on skies. She was an avid reader, witty, highly intelligent, one classy lady, and very artistic. Her kids and grandchil-dren all have special hats, headbands, dolls and other spe-cial keepsakes made with Lucy’s loving hands, especially for them. She is survived by her beloved husband, Matthew C. Webster, her children, Amberlee and Kyle Bray; Elessa and Michael Hinkle; and MeriAnn and Arthur Boxall; Step-children, Erin and Shawn Matheson, Katie and Asa Beckstead, Mattison Webster, Jessica and Peter Salmond, Wendy and Joe Rose, and Jennifer Webster.

Well, our trip to Salina proved to be quite eventful! It turned out that quite a few people from Escalante were in that area over the weekend too. Friday night the North Sevier girls (My granddaughter Shaylynn’s basketball team) got a call from Richfield wanting them to come to Richfield to play the Escalante 7th and 8th grade team. So we all went over to that game. We visited with Kathy Grif-fin and Sheila (Gary’s wife) Griffin who were with the Escalante team. Cory John-son, Boulder, is coaching our girls. We also saw Bart and Peggy Palmer and their grandson, Krewz, going in to the next game to support their Tropic team. The next morning Shay-lynn had another basketball game in Salina. Then her sister, Devyn, had a softball game in Richfield, then we went back to Salina for the Dance Revue. I don’t know how these kids get anything else done! I saw Keith and Linda Carter at the dance review too. They go every year just like I do to watch their little granddaughter, Si-enna, dance. She is the daughter of Chrystal and Tim Udy. I think she has a couple of brothers now too. Cute little kids. Now, right here, Thais Griffin says I have to make a confession, since I report on her actions all the time. Yep! I took a fall lately too! While I was in Salina. I went into the auditorium for the dance review and it was darker than a stack of black cats in there and I fell over a platform that was be-tween the wall and the last row of seats, which ordinar-ily is a walkway! I didn’t break any bones, nor did I have any bruises, but I think I strained every muscle in my body. My good shoul-der is still a little sore too! So there… I can fall just as easily as the rest of you! Evan Reeves confessed to us that he falls all the time too! My dad said one time that the older he got the faster he got. When asked how that worked he said, “It used to take me a long time to fall down, now I just go right down!” I forgot to mention that Dixie Shakespear, (Ed’s mom) her son Rhett and I think a couple of her daugh-ters were here for Vernon Spencer’s funeral. I didn’t get to talk to Dixie but it was good to see her there. She has always been such a cute lady and has such a nice family, I just wanted to mention that. It was good to visit with Rhett for a minute. It’s a little late, but con-gratulations to Don Porter for his “Civic Volunteer Of The Year Award,” which was presented to him by the Lt. Governor, Greg Bell, at an award banquet in Salt Lake City on April 25, 2012. We are always glad when one of our own is recognized for their good deeds. We need more good volunteers, not that we don’t already have some we just need more! The Jon Huntsman Edu-cation Awards have been presented this year to 11 de-serving individuals around the state. Jay Hales, son of Sandra Porter, recently received one of them. Con-

gratulations, Jay, we are so proud of you! He was surprised in an assembly at the Riverton Utah High School, where he teaches Automotive Tech., on April 18, 2012. Mrs. Jon (Karen) Huntsman presented the award to him and during the presentation it was men-tioned that he was from Es-calante. Guess who yelled out “Yeay” from the audi-ence? It was Linda Alvey Stokes who is a teacher at Riverton High also. Jay’s mom, Sandra, and grand-mother, Cecil Dawn Porter, were in attendance also. Jay is married to the former Laura Chappell who used to live in Wayne County. They have 4 sons and 1 daughter. Their two oldest boys are twins and are now 15 years old. Jill Porter, Principal at North Sevier High School in Salina, also received one of the Huntsman Awards. She is a daughter of for-mer Escalante resident, Jim Reynolds. Tammy Spencer called from Cedar City to an-nounce the arrival of a new grandson. Cody Eugene Ness was born on April 21, 2012 to parents Cody and Jennifer Ness. He weighed in at 6 lbs. 11 oz. and was 19” long. He will be known as C.J. His father works on an oil rig in Vernal but was home when little C.J. came into the world. Grandpar-ents are: LaNell and Boyd Cottam, Cedar City; Gary and Tammy Spencer and Carrie Griffin all of Es-calante. Congratulations to all! Gary and Sheila Grif-fin have been here visiting with Gene and Thais Grif-fin. Sheila has been help-ing Thais with some spring housework again. I like that girl! I’ll bet Thais does too! Bill Kuhns is looking better after he had an acci-dent while hauling wood. He was rolling a log down off the hill when he tripped over a root and fell, ram-ming his head into the log and splitting his lip and up into his face. He likes to say that Bev had told him not to talk back! But she did take him to Panguitch to have it all stitched up and Dr. Mill-er did a great job! Bill and Bev made their first trip of the summer to Posey Lake last week. They say there is a little snow still, but that it was beautiful as usual. Bob and Sheila Faulkner had a visit from Sheila’s niece. Dennis and Randi Blanchard and family came from the Salt Lake area to check on them and help them get some work done around their place. Did you know that before Sheila moved here her name was pronounced Shila? I guess we didn’t listen very closely because we have all called her Sheila the many years she has lived here. Jim and Karen Rangitsch are back in town for the summer. They have lived in Hurricane all winter to be closer to her heart doc-tor. She has recently had to have a sinus operation and it is all better now, so hope-fully they can have a good summer. Margo Smith has had her daughter, Riley Ellena, and her two children here for a visit. Riley lives in Oregon now so doesn’t get home that often.

There is a lot of activ-ity going on out at the Tom Jackson Farm. Tom and Marilyn sold to Ken Steed who is getting right busy, moving the earth, getting fences built and the sprin-klers going for summer. All the other farmers and cattlemen are doing the same. Gathering cattle, branding calves, mov-ing from winter range to the summer range, chang-ing sprinklers, etc. Never thought I’d miss that, but I do! Dan and Lois Spencer are still keeping their vehicles warmed up and on the road. With all their grandchildren going on missions, gradu-ating, getting baptized, etc. they are kept pretty busy. And, as if that wasn’t enough, Lois had her foot in a cast again, then got the flu and coughed so hard she broke a rib. Now come on you guys, you need to slow down! Would you like to have someone else cook for you for a change? Here’s what they are serving at the Se-nior Citizen Center this next week: Tues 8th: Sweet and Sour Chicken, Egg Roll, Cottage Cheese Salad, Fruit Cocktail and Scotcha-roos for dessert. Wed. 9th: Beef Pot Pie W/Potatoes, Corn and Green Beans. Pears and PopCorn Balls. Thurs. 10th: BBQ Pork Sandwiches, Potato Salad, Apricots and Chocolate Cake. Suggest-ed donations: Seniors over 60 $2.50. Under 60 $6.00. The Senior Citizen Bus will be going to St. George on May 14 for a business trip, shopping and doctor appointments. Leaving at 6:30 A.M. And will be taking Daughters of the Utah Pioneers to Ruby’s Inn for a D.U.P. Conference on May 19. For more infor-mation call the Senior Cen-ter at 826-4317.

ESCALANTE CITY LIGHT POST BANNER AND SLOGAN CONTEST

Envision Escalante is pleased to announce that over 50 ideas were submitted for the City Light Post Banner and Slogan contest. A panel of local citizens judged the contest and a check for $100 was awarded to sixth grader Lori Torgerson who was the winner of both the banner and slogan entries. Susan Nelson, president of Envision Escalante presented the check to Lori and we congratulate her on her innovative and creative ideas for this project. Envision has turned over Lori’s original concept to a graphic artist who is working to transform her concept into a beautiful street banner. Lori’s slogan is “Es-calante, where we call home”..which will also be used on the banners and for bummer stickers. Envision would like also to thank Escalante Elementary Art Instructor Ruthanne Oliver for encouraging her students to submit their ideas and participate in this outstand-ing community project.

CHANGING YOUR WILL OR TRUST

The situation is common. A client has a will or trust prepared by legal counsel. Sometime later the client wishes to make changes to the estate plan. The ques-tion is, how should those changes be made? First, one should never hand write or type changes to the face of an existing will or trust. The cost of paying for a properly draft-ed and executed change to an existing estate plan document is far less than the amount that the benefi-ciaries and estate adminis-trator would pay to separate legal counsel to determine the effect of the handwrit-ten change. Any estate planning at-torney could share experi-ences of negative effects

on families caused by hand-written changes to estate planning documents. Although no one wants to create problems between beneficiaries of the estate, even small handwritten changes can create great problems. The question is always what should govern – the handwritten change or the original provision? The question is almost never clear and can almost always be argued either way. Additionally, there is almost always a question as to whose handwriting it really is. The legal formali-ties that exist with respect to executing estate planning documents and changes to those documents were de-veloped to prevent the first person that finds the will or trust from changing the terms by penning or typing changes of their own to the document. The necessary formalities are not satisfied when handwritten or typed changes are made to the document. It is important to note that in almost all situations, one can, with proper assis-

tance, effectively change an estate plan. Although some estate tax savings trusts (life insurance trusts, credit shelter trusts, etc.) are not amendable, most es-tate planning trusts are re-vocable, amendable trusts. Additionally, wills are al-most always revocable and amendable. In conclusion, almost all estate planning instruments are amendable. Although the documents can be changed, it is almost never a good idea to change the documents by handwriting or typing the changes on the face of the document. Handwriting or typing on the face of the document will almost certainly lead to questions about the effect or validity of such changes. Such uncertainty will likely result in disputes between beneficiaries. These dis-putes can be both financial-ly and emotionally drain-ing. Jeffery J.

WAYNE COUNTY FARM SERVICE AGENCYDIRECT & COUNTER-CYCLICAL PROGRAM

The Direct & Counter-Cyclical Program (DCP) is a program administered by the Farm Service Agency (FSA) that provides pro-ducers an income safety net in the form of annual direct payments. DCP also offers assistance through counter-cyclical payments when commodity prices are below certain levels. Producers who have previ-ously established base acres and yields for eligible com-modities on their farms can apply for DCP payments. Enrollment in DCP is on an annual basis. The 2012 DCP enrollment ends June 1, 2012. Producers are required

to file an accurate acreage report if enrolled in DCP or other programs admin-istered by FSA. All crops must be reported by June 30, 2012. Producers are encouraged to come in as soon as crops are planted – do not wait until the dead-line. If you have bought or sold land, or if you have added or dropped rented land from your operation, make sure you report the changes to the Wayne County FSA Office as soon as possible. Failure to maintain accurate records with FSA on all land you have an interest in can lead to possible program ineligibility and penalties.

Changes must be made prior to enrolling in DCP or filing acreage reports. Up-date signature authorization when changes in the opera-tion occur. Please call Paul Pace or Sheila Torgerson at (435) 836-2711, if you have any questions.
