Midsummer Night’s Dream This Weekend at the IronDoor
Following on the heels of the recent Renaissance Faire, Donna Whipple's Shakespeare class will be presenting a performance of the bard’s classic comedy “A Midsummer Night’s Dream” at the Iron Door Playhouse this Friday 13, Saturday 14, and next Monday 16 at 7:00 p.m. The play, directed and abridged by Ada Campbell, will feature a cast composed entirely of youths, many of whom were involved in the production of the Renaissance Faire.

Girl Scouts Host STEM night at Park Last week, Kristen McAdams of the Girl Scouts Program Department brought a grant-funded night of STEM activities to Malad as part of the organization’s Eastern Idaho outreach. The night was designed to introduce girls to the possibilities in the world of STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering, and Math) programs in a variety of hands-on ways. The primary activities of the night, locally hosted by Laura Dickerson and Lisa Lamb, involved a biology scavenger hunt and a demonstration of binary code. McAdams, who had stopped in Malad on her way to a number of surrounding areas to perform a similar series of classes, introduced herself to the group of gathered girls by explaining that “I went to school to study how things worked. For me, I wanted to know how living things worked, so I went into a subject called Biology. I got to write a long story for other biologists about some things that I found out, and I got what’s called a doctorate. But here’s the thing— you don’t need to do all that
to find things out. There are all kinds of things you can find out in your own backyard, or in a park like this one!” The girls were given notebooks and pens and then sent off across the park to find as many “natural” things as they could within 10 minutes. Afterward, the girls gathered around a white board, while McAdams listed out the things they had found. “Grass! Dandelions! Ladybugs! A spider! Twigs! Clouds!” Ultimately, the list ended up with twenty or so items, and led to a conversation about observation and looking at things like a scientist. Laura Dickerson and Lisa Lamb smiled as their girls jumped into the conversation about what other things might count as natural. “Us! The Sun!” At the end of the first session, McAdams encouraged the girls to keep making notes in their notebooks. “Those are for you—I’d like to encourage you to take them home and keep discovering things.” The next activity involved making keychains, on which the girls converted
NEWS IN BRIEF Fugitive Couple in Alabama Located; Suspect in Custody, Corrections Officer Dead
After an 11- day nationwide manhunt, escaped prisoner Casey White was apprehended in Evansville, Indiana. Corrections officer Vicky White, who aided in his escape, shot herself before being taken into custody. Casey White was in prison awaiting trial for a fatal 2015 stabbing death. Although the two share a surname, there is no legal evidence that they were ever married. The car they were driving when apprehended contained multiple wigs, weapons, and ammunition reserves.
Fed Raises Interest Rates
Last week, the Federal Reserve increased its benchmark interest rate to the highest level since 2000, up to the .75-1% range. The increase is a move to stave off inflation caused by a number of current economic factors, and is believed to be merely the first in a series of rate increases over the year. The Fed has also stated the subsequent increases will likely not be as large as this one, but the increase will affect a number of variable rate consumer credit instruments, including mortgages and credit cards.
Officers Shot in Pocatello Recovering; Names Released
The two officers involved in a shooting incident on East Bridger Street last week are recovering following wounds received in the line of duty. The Pocatello Police Department released the names of the officers involved, Demetrius Amos and MacKenzie Handel, who are both expected to fully recover. The incident was initiated by the suspect opening fire with a rifle on the officers who had arrived at the scene and questioned him. As of press time, one of the officers had been released from the hospital, while the other remains under observation.
Rock n Roll Hall of Fame Inductees Announced

their initials to binary code in beads. “We’re going to be making these with a secret code,” she said to the table of talkative girls. “It’s the language computers use to talk to each other. The same way that words are made out of certain combinations of letters, that’s how words get made in binary too. Except binary only really has two letters, so it looks a little different.” As they began to figure out the connection between the binary code “alphabet” and their names, the conversation shifted to involve com-
puters themselves, which is what McAdams was hoping for. “This is one example of a thing—computers—that’s a major part of everyone’s lives that we don’t always think about. For me, it’s important to expose the ideas in STEM to girls as young as possible. It’s great for them to see how these kinds of sciences are part of their everyday lives,” McAdams said. “And the basic STEM skills are so useful for a lot of things as you go through life.”

Welsh Festival Poetry and Fiction Contests Taking Submissions
If you had been living in Malad Valley in the late 1800s, you would be well acquainted with Malad Valley’s version of the Welsh eisteddfod. Held in Wales since the 1100s with the modern version beginning in the late 1700s, the eisteddfod is the largest and most prestigious poetry and choral competition in the world. With over 6000 competitors in poetry, prose, and song and 150,000 visitors, the eisteddfod is held for eight days during the first of August with one year in northern Wales and the next year in southern Wales. Because of the pandemic in 2020 and 2021, the eisteddfod was cancelled for the first time since 1914 during World War I. This year it will be held in Tregaren, a town of 1200 in northern Wales. The finale event of the Welsh eisteddfod is the Chairing of the Bard, always held on Friday afternoon. Although other prizes are given for prose and song, the Bard’s Chair is the top prize for poetry. A unique chair is designed and built for the occasion, and the winning Bard takes the chair home with him or her. The winning poem must be written in Welsh and in the strict Welsh poetic style.
At the ceremony, only the winner’s nom de plume (pseudonym) is announced so nobody knows who the winner is. In the huge tent where thousands of people wait in anticipation, the Archdruid, who presides over the ceremony, announces the winner’s nom de plume three times as spotlights pan the crowd, waiting for the winner to stand and be escorted to the stage by groups of druids and young girls dressed in flowing costumes and carrying flowers. Welsh pioneers brought those traditions with them, and Malad Valley hosted its own eisteddfod – one year in Malad and the next in St. John or Samaria – from the 1880s until World War I. Participants, spectators, and judges came from as far away as Salt Lake City to be part of the Malad Valley eistoddfod. Besides choral, small ensemble, and solo singing and original poetry and prose readings, dancing was part of the Malad eisteddfod. An early article in the Idaho Enterprise stated that the 75 cent prize had to be split between two boys as the judges could not decide who was the better step dancer. In 2005 a committee decided it was time to
celebrate the Welsh heritage of Malad Valley. Although not a traditional eisteddfod, the Malad Valley Welsh Festival does host some events reminiscent of the Welsh festival. This year’s Festival will be presided over by Cory Webster, the “2019 Bard of the Malad Valley Welsh Festival.” He will sit in the special Bard’s Chair after being led into the Festival during the opening ceremony by the Knight of the Festival (Malad’s version of an Archdruid.) The chair was donated to the Festival by Bob Crowther, refinished by Lance Tripp and Shawn and Roxanne Albretsen. The late Shannon Evanson designed the decorative Welsh dragon for the seat of the chair. Unlike the Bard’s Chair in Wales, the Malad’s Bard’s Chair remains in Malad on display in Malad City Hall along with the plaques listing the winning Bards and the winners of the Patsy Price Scott Poetry Prize, which was introduced last year during the only event – the Adult Poetry Competition. The winners of the Youth Poetry Competition will receive cash prizes and coupons with the top winner in each grade category receiv-

ing a crown. Judging of the 500+ youth poems that were submitted by Malad students has begun. Winners will be announced at the Youth Poetry Reading on Friday, June 24. This is the first year for the Adult Fiction (Prose) Competition. Short stories (no more than 2000 words) must have a Welsh or Western pioneer theme, setting, or main character. (See guidelines at www. welshfestival.com or contact Lucie Thomas Washburn, the Chair of the Adult Fiction Competition.) All authors must submit their stories using pseudonyms. The deadline for submissions is June 1. The winning short story author will be announced at the finale event on the afternoon of Saturday, June 25. It is not too late to
enter the Adult Poetry Competition as the deadline is June 1. (See guidelines at www. welshfestival.com or contact Mary Alice Telford, the Chair of the Adult Poetry Competition.) The poems must be written in English and follow this year’s theme of “Trails and Trials.” (In the past, we have received poems written in Chinese, Pakistani, and some unidentifiable lan-
guages.) The poets must submit their poems using pseudonyms so that the judges will not know the authors. The winning Bard and the winner of the Patsy Price Scott Poetry Prize will be announced at the finale event on the afternoon of Saturday, June 25, after all poets have had the opportunity to read their original poems.

Home Is Where The Dragons Roam!
LETTER TO THE EDITOR What is on my mind? WATER! I know I’m not the only one that is worried about our water situation and drought conditions in Oneida county. I have voiced my concerns to the county Commissioners Bill Lewis and bob Christophersen and at a planning and zoning meeting. It is a topic of discussion that comes up every time someone is talking about the growth that this county is experiencing. Do we have an endless supply of resources in the valley? The people living here know we don’t. I believe the developers and real estate companies here know that they don’t, and I believe that they don’t care. They will be long gone when you start running out of water. But that won’t stop them from building. Anyone who has lived here for any length of time knows the water has always been a topic of concern. LOOK at Deep Creek reservoir. Except for the millions of gallons of it that are forever locked in plastic bottles in landfills around the world, we have the exact same amount of water on this planet today as we had when it was created. We have a lot more people living on it now than ever before. Over the years, I have bought and sold many properties in many states. With every contract there is a disclosure section. Its purpose is to disclose any issues with the property. That part of the contract exists to protect the buyer and to keep the seller honest. Or hold him accountable. I believe the parties selling and developing properties should be required to DISCLOSE the water issues we are experiencing in the valley. That goes for the decision makers and leaders of our community also. They are very aware of our water situation and need to address these concerns. People are coming to Oneida county in droves. Many of them are buying property on
emotion. That is obvious when you see what properties are selling for. Those that are buying that perfect lot out in the country to build their dream home on are going to be blinded by emotion and are, I believe, not considering the important element of that property…water. Every new house in the country is going to need a well. Those wells will be pulling water up to drink, cook with, bathe in, and water trees and lawn. Every property shopper or homeowner needs to be made aware of the potential liability of running out of or low on water. During a drought about 6 years ago, I asked Brett Corgingly to help me with my spring. He finally came to my place on two Sundays to get the work done. To this day, I am grateful for his help. Why was he so swamped? He told me he spent all summer dropping people’s pumps deeper to reach the water. This scenario will repeat and repeat itself. Yes. What is on my mind? WATER! WATER! WATER! I would like to organize a water conservation coalition to address some of the issues I have mentioned. But a coalition can’t be a coalition with only one party. We need to act now so we don’t have to react to an ugly situation down the
road. I am sure that the leaders and decision makers in our community are welcoming our new residents and new tax dollars with open arms and that is the right thing to do. But they also need to aggressively address the water concerns that we established residents have. One suggestion I received regarding these concerns had a lot of merit. Every well should have a meter on it. We all use water from the same aquifer. Another good idea for the commissioners is to require new homes to be built with water conservation in mind. Also…this is an election year and I see county commissioner signs all over the county. Those current commissioners and those running for office need to be able to address OUR water concerns. So when these candidates are soliciting your support and vote, ask them if they have a plan to address out water concerns. And hold them accountable. We can’t stop the growth. We can’t make more water. But we can have a plan. Let’s have a drink. Tim Burnett, Sole current member of the Oneida County Citizens for Water Conservation. Cheers.

Calling All Dragon Supporters! The Malad Valley Welsh Festival is back! The last weekend in June, that’s June 24 and 25, will see the park full of people and the people full of fun. To get the word out, The Idaho Enterprise and the Welsh Committee are sponsoring a photo contest highlighting Dragon Supporters and Dragons! A Dragon Supporter means just that, anyone who supports Dragons whether they’re a resident of the County or not. We have several Baby Dragons in the county and with relatively little research, they can be found by those who seek them. There are also some fullgrown Dragons around. If the clouds form a Dragon, that would certainly be a heavenly sign. A Dragon rock would be fair game. You find a Dragon and take his/her picture with a Dragon supporter and send it in to see if your picture gets highlighted. Remember our home is where the Dragons roam.

Oneida Soil and Water Conservation District visits Malad Elementary Water Conservation The 3rd Grade at Malad Elementary asked the Oneida Soil & Water Conservation District to present a class on water conservation. The children were taught ways to conserve water, educated on how much water it takes to produce the objects and foods we need, and also participated in some fun water activities. The children, along with the help of the local Natural Resources Conservation Service staff, and Oneida and Franklin SWCD staff made edible aquifers to learn where their water comes from and how to keep it clean. They also learned about surface tension, adhesion,

Malad Dancers perform at the Dance Time Classic Competition
May 12, 2022
Dance Company and Studio A both competed during the weekend
21st Annual Dance Time Dance Competition held April 30 The weekend of April 30, Dance Company and Studio Owner Jennifer Hill hosted its 21st Annual Dance Time Classic Dance, Cheer and Solo Competition on Saturday, April 30 at Malad High School. There were 10 teams attending from Burley, Pocatello, American Falls, Rexburg, Preston, Malta,
Logan, Tremonton and Malad. There were 120 Team Routines were performed, as well as 101 Solo and Duet performances. Two local Studios attended, Dance Company under the direction of Jennifer Hill, and Studio A under the direction of Alaina Schrenk and Alicia Seamons. Dance
Company performed 10 routines and received awards for Most Audience Appeal, Best in Hip Hop and the Judges Choice on the routines “Jump Around” and “You're the one that I want”. Soloist Eve Estudillo received 2nd in the 9th and 10th Grade Jazz Intermediate divi-
sion, and Lila Estudillo received 1st in the 5th Grade Lyrical Amateur division. Studio A performed six routines and received Best in Choreography and a Judges Choice award for their routine “Let's Dance”. Soloist Samantha Schrenk received Queen in the 6th Grade Lyrical Ad-
vanced division; Aleah Seamons received 2nd in the 4th & 5th Grade Lyrical Intermediate division; Cassidy Schrenk received Queen in the 3rd Grade Jazz Amateur division, and Alyssa Seamons received Queen in the 3rd Grade Jazz Amateur B division. It was a big day, but things ran very smoothly
from the early morning start to the early evening close. It was a great day for all the teams that attended. This Competition draws teams from all around this area due to the central location of Malad. Many of the teams involved in the competition have been supporters from the very beginning.
Midsummer Night’s Dream This Weekend at the IronDoor that occur after Robin Goodfellow (also known as Puck, and played by standout Doris Young) places love spells on sleeping characters, causing them to madly pursue the wrong people. Nick Bottom (Jaxom Whipple) is the central comic figure, who begins the play as an overly enthusiastic actor, but becomes a donkey and the accidental object of affection for the queen. The play has also, of course, been abridged for length. The original five act play runs thousands of lines, and many of them focus on minor plot developments that would bring the production’s length into the four or five hour arena. At present, the play is clocking in at under two hours in rehearsal, depending on intermission. During the course of the Shakespeare class, the student-actors made voice recordings of their lines to practice from, and aid in everyone else’s learning of the sometimes difficult lines. “I want them to have. Great experience,” Campbell said. “If you’re going to be in the theatre, you’ve got to love the theatre. And this is Shakespeare, you know. It’s hard, but it’s important.” Campbell explained that some actors occasionally had trouble expressing strong emotions in their scenes. “I told them, look—be mad at your brother. Everyone knows how to be mad at their brother, right?” she laughed. Campbell will be on hand behind the scenes to help feed lines and direct traffic. The full cast involves nearly 30 students, many of whom were participants in Donna Whipple’s “Shakespeare and his times” class. Among the featured parts are Hermia (Sadie RanC Y

Queens Titania and Mab face off to set the play's events in motion
Nicole White, and Esther Rogers). This ambitious production also features a music and dance rendition of
the dance of the fairies, which is visually delightful and should leave you with a lingering earworm after the fact.

Grandparents Only
Not recommended for parents and kids
By Dotty Thorpe Evanson
The girls had dance practice at the high school last week. Elle, the six-year-old, was to be there at 4:45 on Tuesday. We pulled up a few minutes early. It had been a long day, so I asked Hadley, the tenyear-old to run in with Elle while I waited out front. About halfway to the front door, Elle decided she could do it alone. She stopped and actually hollered at Hadley, “I can walk myself!” Hadley hollered right back, “Grandma told me to take you in!” Evidently, those were fighting words. Elle turned around and popped Hadley, adding some emphasis to her statement, and proceeded to the door unattended. Independence! It was not 1776, but there was fire in that exchange even though it had all started so peacefully. History classes had

The Idaho Enterprise
taught me a thing or two, so I called Hadley back and let the rebel proceed on her own. She evidently made it and when dance was over an hour later no one went in to gather her up. She came running to the car with a smile and a medal! Victory on all counts. Now the medal was not rewarding her independence or her rude exchange with her sister, but rather was for a team competition held the week before. All the dancers got one. However, the timing of the medal and the “I can walk myself” declaration coincided to create some attitude. That same day, I had taken Grandma Red into the hospital for a routine check-up with the podiatrist. Grandma Red no longer drives, which drives her crazy. She does not like relying on others to get her around. After the appointment, she said, “I think I’ll walk myself up to the hospital
SCHOOL MENU next time.” That would be a walk, but I don’t doubt she has the spirit to make it happen. America was blessed with a fighting spirit and inspired leadership during our Revolution which allowed us all to receive our “medal” of independence and yes, it brought some attitude. There is just something in us all that makes us want to walk our own path. Currently, there are 43 million Ukrainians who want that same thing. Over six million have fled their home country rather than have a dictator direct their walk. Geography alone has put them in their present situation. Hopefully, their fighting spirit, love of country and support from the free world will return them to a peaceful restitution, smiles and Victory on all counts. After all, young or old we want to walk our own path and that makes for the Good Life!

Local student artist Maggie Willie receives Honorable Mention in Congressional Art Competition This year, all the high school art classes at MHS participated in the 2022 Congressional High School Art Competition. The Contest “provides aspiring student artists the opportunity to have their artwork displayed in the United States Capitol Building in Washington D.C.” The United States House of Representatives and Congressman
Mike Simpson were the sponsors of the competition, which was judged by a panel of experts at the end of March. All of the submitted artwork was then displayed at the Art Museum of Eastern Idaho’s “Youth at Art” exhibit in April. At the end of the judging process, local artist Maggie Willie who is a senior, received one of the two honorable mentions awarded, for her
painting on the subject meaningful to her, her family’s truck shows. Instructor Krystal Fonnesbeck says, “Maggie Willie is a very bright, talented girl. She has taken my art classes every year since she was a freshman. She's always one who is active in trying new ideas and putting forth all her effort to do her very best. The art competition's theme was ‘Welcome to Idaho’
and she titled her project ‘Home.’ She wanted to show how family is an important part of being in Idaho and painting her family's truck shows how they work together as a family and her love for them.” The award demonstrates a high degree of skill in a crowded field. Congratulations to Maggie Willie on her impressive accomplishment.

NEWSLETTER--CITY OF MALAD With the drought continuing in Oneida County, it is imperative that Malad City residents make serious attempts to curtail the use of water this summer. The U.S. Drought Monitor is showing Oneida County in a Severe Drought designation except for the east quarter of the county, which is showing, along with all of Franklin County, an Extreme Drought. designation. The three-month outlook by the National Weather Service Climate Prediction Center is showing that we will have above normal tem-
peratures and below normal precipitation, so it is just going to get worse. Deep Creek is extremely low, and city residents cannot rely on secondary water – we just don’t know if there will be any available. How can you save on water use? • Put off watering your lawns this spring as long as you can. • Cut at least one day from your outdoor watering schedule. The City already has restrictions – residents may water from 6:00 a.m. to 10:00 a.m. and 6:00 p.m. to 10:00 p.m. daily. But
please don’t water daily! If you have a sprinkler system, you are allowed to water during the night, but please don’t water all night! • Deep soak your lawn. A light sprinkling usually just evaporates. Also, don’t water your lawn when the wind is blowing, and please don’t water your lawn during a rainstorm! • If possible, use drip systems to water your flowers and vegetable gardens. Many people are changing their landscaping to drought-resistant plants – a great idea!
• Check your toilet, faucets and pipes for leaks. To save water for your toilet, put an inch or two of sand or pebbles in the bottom of a one-liter bottle to weight it down, fill the rest with water and put it in your toilet tank away from the mechanism. It will save five or more gallons of water a day. • Take shorter showers and only fill your bathtub partially for baths. In fact, the experts say that a partially filled tub uses less water than all but the shortest showers. If you are washing your hair in the shower, turn
off the water while you soap and then turn the water back on to rinse. • Turn off the water while brushing your teeth and while shaving. • Use only full loads in your automatic dishwasher and automatic washing machine. • Don’t leave your faucet running while cleaning vegetables, cooling water for a drink (keep a pitcher of cold water in the refrigerator), while washing hands, or while washing and rinsing dishes. • Don’t clean driveways with a hose. It takes longer, but please
use a broom! • Put a layer of mulch around trees and plants, which slow the evaporation of moisture. • Don’t let your hose run. Use a hose shutoff while washing windows or your car. • Instead of letting your children play in the hose or sprinklers on a hot day, have them come down to the City’s splash pad where the water is recirculated. We can all get through this together. If we have brown lawns, we will all have brown lawns!

OBITUARIES
Vernon Ronley Jones November 27, 1939 - March 27, 2022
Vernon Ronley Jones passed away quietly on March 27, 2022 at the age of 82 in Buckeye, Arizona where he lived with his wife Deborah Ann Tripp Jones – the love of his life – with whom he shared 30 years. Son of Vernon A. and Zelma Atkinson Jones, Ronley was born in Malad, Idaho on November 27, 1939 as the middle of three children; older sister Mary Connie Lewis and younger brother Randy A. Jones all of whom he loved dearly. Ronley developed a love for animals and avid horsemanship skills in his early childhood years while farming and Deborah and Vernon Jones on their ranching cattle. Ronley enjoyed art and Honeymoon sports in elementary and high school joining basketball, boxing, and baseball teams. A young man of 22, Ronley enlisted in the Army to serve his country, attended college (graduating later in life with a BBA from Southwestern University) and returned years later to join his father and brother to farm and ranch the family land. At a young age, Ronley learned the value of a hard day’s work and throughout his long life enjoyed living the roles of rancher, farmer, part store manager, Malad City deputy sheriff, security guard and planning engineer at Thiokol, and maintenance lead at the Pocatello Zoo to name a few… Vernon Ronley Jones Beyond farming and ranching which comprised much of his adolescent and adult life, Ronley was most proud of his and city life near Luke AFB, a retirement long career as an LPN and medic serving for Ronley where he lived out his golden in the Air Force where he was known as years.

W. Neil Jensen
January 27, 1933 - May 2, 2022
W. Neil Jensen, 89, passed away on May 2, 2022 after suffering a stroke. Neil was a courageous survivor, who passed on his strength, testimony and love of life to his descendants. Neil was born to Emil Ray and Selma Jensen in Logan, January 27, 1933. Neil developed his strong and courageous spirit at the age of six when he was stricken with polio and fought his way back to health. He did not let the disease stop him; his mother was his greatest advocate as she helped him walk again and learn to live life to the fullest. Neil was raised on the family ranch in Young Ward, Utah outside of Logan. He worked on the ranch with his family where they grew sugar beets and Hereford cattle. Neil was baptized and confirmed a member of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints in the Logan Temple. One day, when he was eight, his mother said it’s time, and she took him to the Logan Temple and had him baptized. No fanfare. He was a faithful member his whole life, serving a mission to Denmark in 1954 for three years. While there, he served as branch president, as well as proselytizing. Neil served in many callings throughout his life, his favorite was serving with his wife as officiators in the Logan Temple for seven years. Neil married Clara Church, his beloved bride, September 13, 1957 in the Logan Temple. They lived in Raymond, Idaho their first year, and then they moved back to the ranch with his brothers in Young Ward, UT. The brothers were well known for their prime breeding Herefords they sold at auctions throughout the West. Later, they held their own cattle auctions on the ranch and buyers would come from all over to buy Jensen Brother Herefords. He took a short break from cattle ranching to earn his Bachelor of Science in Agricultural Business in 1967. In 1994 Neil, Clara, and the three youngest sold the ranch in Young Ward and moved to Samaria to continue building a strong brand for high quality breeding stock with the boys. Neil’s passions were hunting and fishing, which he was able to do right up to the last. He spent his last weeks on earth fishing with his best friend and son, David, on Kachemak Bay in Alaska. Neil and Clara raised seven children C Y

COUNTY COMMISSION MEETING 5/9 Department of Environmental Quality Katie Bergholm of the DEQ visited the commission for a quarterly visit. Bergholm is the new regional administrator for the DEQ. She explained that there were no pressing matters concerning the county, but wanted to make sure to provide an introduction to the commission. She further explained that the DEQ’s approval of several of Malad’s drinking water and waste water requests under ARPA funds were currently under consideration. The commissioners asked a number of questions of Bergholm, related to a number of projects moving forward. Bergholm suggested that the DEQ office in Pocatello viewed providing best practice guidelines to county agencies, including Planning and Zoning, as an important priority. She conveyed the opinion that awareness of various hydrology issues was especially important to county entities. The PZ Commission has been dealing with a number of issues related to water in the ongoing finalization of the Development code. The landfill closure as a result of the new arrangement with Idawy was another issue discussed as a DEQ matter. Commissioner Lewis reported on a meeting with Idawy about the remediation in question. Former Commissioner Gene Caldwell spoke to the council about the potential benefits of encouraging developers within the impact zone to link to the city’s infrastructure system in terms of water and wastewater. Bid for Runway project The Airport Board approached the commission about a runway and taxiway refurbishment. Two bids were received
for the project. Parsons ended up being the low bid. The next steps will involve assuring the performance and subcontractor bonds, and a selection of federal documents (such as the Drug Free Workplace Agreement), and then a Notice to Proceed would be issued. The bid for the entire project was $1,654,507.50, which includes all the aspects of the runway, taxiway, and ramp elements. The amount is covered by a grant, which should cover up to $1.9 million under the CARES act, and not involve any county or state taxpayer money. Substantial completion is scheduled for July. A motion to approve and accept the bid for the project was approved. Gordon Smith; follow up on nuisance report Gordon Smith and his wife approached the commission related to nuisance issues near his property near 800 N. Smith explained that the issue was a cleaning situation. He believed that a fire would present a major problem as a consequence of the number of abandoned vehicles on the land that might be subject to a more catastrophic conflagration. Attorney Brower reported that a nuisance law did exist on the books which might cover the property in question. It was determined that the ordinance allowed for the sheriff or the fire department to make the determination about whether the property in question was actively in violation of the ordinance. The first step after an such determination would be a notice to the property owner, advising them to address the nuisance elements. Attorney Brower stressed that the commission’s job was to create the ordinances in question, rather than to enforce them,
which was under the domain and discretion of, in this case, the fire chief and the county sheriff. Sheriff Jones explained that he had spoken to the individual in question, and would talk to him again about remediating the fire hazard issues. There was some discussion about who was responsible for sending an official letter to the individual. After a citation has been issued, the county attorney would then have the ability to attempt to enforce penalties or require that the issue be addressed. Chairman Lewis suggested that Mr. Smith begin the process by consulting with the fire department and sheriff’s office to begin the process. The sheriff mentioned that the “right to farm act” was often a reason properties were protected from being listed in violation, though it probably didn’t apply in this case. Comp Time Payout Due to the structure of the scheduling arrangements in the Sheriff’s office, the standard hours for LEOs ends up being 86, rather than the standard 80. As a result, the six hour gap before overtime goes into effect beyond 86 (but which is commonly worked) has been converted into comp time, which potentially runs against the federal fair labor standards act. Comp times in overage of 50 or 150 hours were paid out by an approved motion. The commission determined to pay out comp time overages when they emerged more regularly as an ongoing policy. The regular pay hour totals for the sheriff’s office was moved to be raised to 86, rather than 80, in an attempt to mitigate the issue in the future. Attorney Brower suggested that the PTO (Paid Time Off) arrangement for the county should be
periodically reviewed to see how effective the current numbers are. Juvenile Assessment center The Federal govt. has provided a grant opportunity for juvenile assessment centers. The centers are designed to allow a mitigation process for ongoing juvenile issues within the county. The center provides diagnostic and evaluative tools that can provide an easier access point to services outside of law enforcement. Ultimately, this can result in a lower burden on the juvenile justice system itself. The federal funds can be used to pay for a facility, the computer infrastructure, and the testing protocols that would be needed. The grant provides for five years worth of services. Bannock county has signaled interest in creating a regional assessment center for the six surrounding counties, and has already begun establishing a facility within its jurisdiction. The proposal from the county attorney is to utilize some of the grant funding to create a satellite office in Oneida county as part of the regional program. At this phase, the county will need to produce a letter of support for the project. Juvenile probation would be in charge of managing the proposed satellite office itself. The question to be determined was whether the county was willing to try out the program under the funding of the grant, and evaluate whether to maintain the service after the five years of grant funding expired. As a result of the discussion, the commission suggested that they were positively in favor of the potential project, and would begin working on a letter of support. A motion to provide a letter of support to Bannock county
for the possible establishment of an Oneida county satellite office was passed. City Impact Zone The issue of the Impact Zone was discussed by the commission. Chairman Lewis explained that he had recently attended a meeting with the City on the subject of the Impact Zone. The Impact Zone is the area within roughly a mile of the city limits into which the city foresees growth in the upcoming years. The ordinance that regulates the Impact Zone lays out a need for the area included in the zone to be evaluated on an annual basis, which it has not consistently been. There are also some errors which have been found in the existing map. After a request by either the city or the county to renegotiate and examine the current impact zone, a selection of representatives from both entities, as well as three citizens from the community, must meet to agree on the scope and limits of the Impact Zone. Problems resulting from a lack of clarity on the existing boundaries of the Impact Zone have already arisen over the last year. As development increases throughout the valley, similar problems are almost certain to continue to occur. Developments within an expanded Impact Zone would allow for the more careful planning of the extension of sewer and water lines, as well as other development issues. A meeting would also allow revisions to the ordinance itself, and the correction of the existing map. The commission delegated Cody Brower the responsibility for drafting a letter concerning the renegotiation of the city/ county lines to Malad City, as per the ordinance. Dianna Dredge of the Road and Bridge
department mentioned that she would like to be involved with clarifying the ownership of a number of road sections at the boundaries of the city. REDI Economic development A decision about whether to remain a member of the REDI group was before the commission. REDI (Regional Economic Development for Eastern Idaho) is an organization that helps to attract businesses and organizations into communities such as Malad. Given its resources within the business and development communities, Chairman Lewis felt the REDI was well-equipped to help the valley continue to manage growth. The organization also creates and distributes economic forecasts, job reports, analysis, and other forms of information used by the county to plan for development. A motion to remain a member of REDI was passed. ITD Agreement near Devil Creek The Idaho Transportation Department is currently undertaking a project off the I-15 near Devil Creek. A clarification of the legal agreement with the county is ongoing, and should be completed by the next commission meeting. City support letter for stormwater project The city requested a letter of support for a potential grant related to a stormwater project on Bush avenue off of Bannock. The support would come in the form of potential in kind donations of grading, bulldozing, and other technical support that would be needed for the project, in conjunction with Hess Pumice. The commission passed a motion to authorize the letter of support.

MAY FAIRBOARD MEETING
GRADUATION
The Oneida County Fairboard met on May 5, with a busy agenda. Groundskeeper The groundskeeper spoke to Board about clarifying the schedule for events over the summer. The issue of disposing of tumbleweeds was raised. It was determined that burning them would be acceptable, as long as the sheriff’s office was informed. The trap shoot was reported to have been cleaned from the track well by the participants. Barrel Racing Proposal A barrel racing group proposed paying $120, rather than the $200 fee. The board determined that the standard fee was appropriate and applicable. The fee includes the use of the facilities and the tractor. The tractor is used every seventh barrel race to resurface the track. The price of fuel at present was an important consideration. A motion to leave the fee at $200 was carried, with one vote against. Beautification Project Plans for a potential beautification project for the exterior of the Event Center were presented to the board. The plan included a series of trees and benches at the building’s approach.
One issue raised was the need for a water supply for the trees. As a result of a certain number of unknown underground infrastructure elements, the potential for some conflicts in construction was discussed. The need to install water before the proposed paving project for the parking area is undertaken was also raised. Bids for corrugated flower boxes were received. Treated douglas fir boxes of 4x8 and a 4x4 were $1,684.40, with redwood a bit higher. The grant for landscaping that will help underwrite some of the project needs to be used by the fall. The planter boxes would be located at the front of the entrance to the building. If the boxes are located on the concrete, a drip line will not be possible. The subject of keeping the flowers watered was discussed as an additional concern. A discussion of replacing the exterior parking lot lights with LEDs was also held, as well as the potential for an additional project to replace the current light poles, and upgrading the lighting in the arena, pig and sheep facilities. It was determined to investigate pricing for the various proposals, and determine what
the feasibility of adding watering infrastructure was before moving forward. Raffle The car show, which will be held on June 4, was discussed as a primary spot for the sale of raffle tickets for the fair. A booth will be set up to sell tickets to win the generator, rifle, rodeo tickets, and binoculars during Fair week. Entertainment for Kids During Fair Current scheduled events include Face Painting, Scales and Tails, and a Kids’ Talent Show. Scheduling of Grounds It was clarified that Diane Skidmore was the contact person for events scheduled on the grounds. There have been a few instances of scheduling overlaps as a result of multiple events. Work Meetings for Arena Project HS Rodeo is scheduled for May 13-14, next weekend. The project to revamp and improve the arena— including fencing and layout issues—is in the early stages. Major elements of the project will be delayed, so as not to interfere with the upcoming High School rodeo. Review of Fair Week The following sched-
ule was tentatively agreed to: Mon—Motocross. Fireworks. Tues—Team branding. Concert—Fab Four Wed—Team roping. Kids Talent show Thurs—Jr Steer riding. Kids Rodeo Fri—Scales and Tails.

Rodeo is scheduled for this weekend, and The Stone Rodeo is scheduledfor July 22-23.

last minute chance to make the race. The horses entered in the Kentucky Derby earn their place as they compete along “The Road to the Kentucky Derby,” a series of 35 races around the world. The first four finishes of the 25 races earn points and those top 20 horses are then invited to race at the Kentucky Derby. Race day showed Zandon and Epicenter, the favorites to win the race, with odds at 3-1 and 9-2 respectively, sorely contrasting the odds of Rich Strike that began at 99-1 and only marginally improved to 80-1. When the starting gates opened, the horses set off at a record breaking speed, covering the first quarter mile in the fastest time in the race’s history. Summer is Tomorrow jumped to the start, clocking 45.36 for the first half mile. Rich Strike, set with the longest odds of
the 20 horses, settled to the back of the pack as the horses ran around the 1 1/4 mile race. As the horses continued around the track, Crown Pride, under the French-born and Japan-based jockey Christophe Lemaire, and Messier, named after the Canadian NHL player, also took to the front of the pack. Favorites Epicenter and Zandon settled to the middle of the pack. On the final corner of the track, Summer is Tomorrow began to fade and Crown Pride took the lead. Of the trailing horses, Rich Strike moved up from last to 17th. As the leaders moved into the final stretch, Messier pulled ahead of Crown Pride, with Epicenter, Cyberknife and Zandon rounding out the top five. Rich Strike began to zig-zag through the pack, trailing now at 14th. Seconds later, it was Epicenter at the front
battling Zandon over the last furloughs of the race, matching stride for stride and both completely unaware of the longshot making his way from the back. In what seemed like a two-horse race for the finish, Rich Strike came from seemingly nowhere, to burst past the pair of favorites along the rail to pull to the lead and claim the victory by 3/4 of a length. As the horses crossed the finish line, the audience roared with delight to see the upset of a lifetime- a horse valued at a mere $30,000, coming from the very back of the pack, last place, to beat out multiple horses worth millions of dollars. Just a day after learning that he would be running in the iconic race and only two minutes after the starting gates opened, Rich Streak was standing in the winner’s circle. Speaking to the press at
Kentucky Derby Report The historic Kentucky Derby horse race added a new and exciting chapter to its records as the 148th year of racing hit the track of Churchill Downs. Horse racing fans were delighted to enjoy an ordinary day of racing after the disrupted schedule of 2020 due to Covid restrictions and the winner being stripped of its title in 2021 due to a positive drug test. But instead of ordinary, race enthusiasts were treated to the biggest, most extraordinary upset in racing history since 1913. As the deadline for race entries was quickly looming Friday, May 6, Ethereal Road was pulled from the race. His trainer, D. Wayne Lukas, claimed that the horse wasn’t ready to race as he had been training poorly over the previous week. This last minute scratch provided Rich Strike the

Rep. Mark Harris, Kelly Anthon and his wife Joelle greet voters at the Senior Center last week
dren on the family farm in Cassia County. Both candidates brought up the growing problem of rural counties in Idaho being ignored because of the population centers of the state moving to urban areas, especially
the Treasure Valley. In the future, State Senators and Representatives from rural areas will have to work very hard to get issues important to farmers, ranchers, and small city residents heard by the Idaho Legislature.

The Dragons trailed behind American Falls for most of the game until in the 6th inning when they finally put runs up on the scoreboard to take the lead. Kyler Horsley scored the first run, crossing home plate as Vinny Evans hit a line drive to
center field with Higley close on his heels. Ryan Hubbard, next in the batting lineup, sacrificed a pop fly to center field, giving Combs the chance to score another run for the Dragons.

Malad only allowed one more run in the bottom of the seventh inning to take the win over the Beavers. In their final regular season game, the MHS baseball team traveled to Bear Lake where they took the lead early in the game. Bridger Bastian scored on an error to earn the first run in the opening inning. Jaden Ward then lined a fielder’s choice to bat in Combs in the second inning, followed by runs from Hubbard and Ward on a double hit by Bastian. Bastian scored the final run of the inning on a groundout to shortstop by Chase Briggs. Out on the field, Malad was quick with their defense to keep their lead over Bear Lake. In the bottom of the second, with the count full and runners
on first and second, Bear Lake hit the ball to Horsley at shortstop. Horsley grabbed the ball and fired it into Briggs at second base for the out. Briggs turned and threw it on to Evans at first to make the double play. Evans grabbed the third out of the inning as Bear Lake hit a ground out to first base. The team had a strong hitting game, Combs scoring 2 runs on 3 hits and 3 at bats with 2 RBIs, Horsley scoring 3 runs on 3 hits and 5 at bats and Bastian getting 3 runs on 2 hits and 5 at bats with 3 RBIs.
