CONGRATULATIONS TO THE CLASS OF 2022!
109TH COMMENCEMENT EXERCISES HELD FOR MALAD HIGH SCHOOL
The 109th annual Commencement Exercises were held to recognize the MHS Class of 2022. The ceremony was held on Wednesday, May 25th, honoring the Class of 2022 and celebrating the last four years of their educational experience. There were 66 students graduating with this class. The speakers for that evening were Salutatorian Colton Ihler, Valedictorian Samuel Pickett, Commencement Speaker Kory Kay, Student Body President Bridger Bastian, and Superintendent Jon Abrams. Music for the night was provided by the Malad High School Concert Band that played the Prelude as well as the School Song later in the program. The National Anthem, “The Star Spangled Banner,” was sung by Malad High School Chamber Choir. They also combined with the Malad High School Choir for a musical number after Mr. Abrams’ remarks titled, “Memories” by Maroon 5. Salutatorian Colton Ihler After being introduced by President Bastian, the first speaker was Salutatorian Colton Ihler. He said, “Good evening ladies and gentlemen, parents and families, teachers and staff, and lastly my friends of the Class of 2022, we have finally made it through all 12 years. It is my honor to be here tonight as your Class of 2022 Salutatorian. To explain to you
NEWS IN BRIEF Heartbreak in Uvalde After Shooting
An elementary school shooting in the small town of Uvalde, Texas left 19 students and 2 teachers dead after a young gunman barricaded himself inside the school. As the town and the nation as a whole try to come to terms with the horrific event, a number of questions remain about the on site police who have come under scrutiny for the way the event was handled. Schools across the country have increased security during what is now the last week of school for many students across the country.

all what Salutatorian is I figured I would turn to UrbanDictionary.com. It states that a salutatorian is, ‘The person who just missed being valedictorian by one test score point. A very miserable person indeed. 2nd place is just the first loser.’ However, none of us here are losers. Because by the end of tonight we will all be walking across this stage and be graduated. “School is all that we have known for our whole lives. In elementary school our worries were small, we were more focused on what we wanted to spend our AR points on or how to become a FastMath Wizard so we
could finally run through the halls like the cool kids. Many crucial life lessons were learned in this stage of life. Like how Bridger learned he should probably wear a belt so he doesn’t get pantsed again, how Sydney learned she should probably focus on her balance more so she doesn’t continue to break bones on the playground, how Ms. Swartz’s class will never lose a dodgeball tournament, and how if you climb a rock wall you should probably know how to climb down it. “Now as we left and moved on to middle school we thought we were finally big kids, just to realize our
lives stayed pretty much the same. Our focuses were once again simple. We all looked forward to the bowling days with Mrs. Price and Mr. Ray, the ski days so we could get out of school all day, and of course the challenge of seeing if you could make it through a class in Mr. Waldron's without getting a think time. Now we were slowly being prepared for high school all three years without even knowing it. We learned how to become more responsible, dedicated, and we all learned that we can each become successful CONGRATULATIONS On Page 3
Annual Memorial Day Commemoration Held; New Memorial Unveiled Memorial Day is one of the most solemn days on the calendar, created to commemorate the sacrifices of soldiers and their families throughout the country’s history. While many people use the holiday to mark the passing of all family members, its official purpose is to allow the country as a whole to give thanks to those in the branches of service who have passed on. The Memorial Day service at the Malad City Cemetery this year provided a fitting tribute to those who are gone but not forgotten. After an introduction by Post Service Officer Gene Caldwell and an invocation by Post Chaplain Larry Nalder, the ceremony was turned over to Bob Stokes, who presented the new memorial bell next to the podium. The memorial was created by local artist Doug Adams, and features a bell, which will be rung every Memorial Day to commem-

orate Oneida County veterans who have passed away in the year since last May. The foundation for the bell was the culmination of Levi Balappa’s Eagle Scout project. He was assisted by Marshall Asay and Paden Neilson. Becky Moss and chorus of singers, accompanied by Trudy Ward, brought music to the occasion with a selection of songs, including the Woody Guthrie standard “This Land is Your Land.” The featured speaker of the morning was veteran and current Superintendent of Schools for District 351 Jon Abrams. Abrams, who also has three children who have served, spoke to the crowd about the special nature of the observance. “I woke up early—around five o’clock this morning and drove up here to the cemetery looking for flags,” he began. “And even though I haven’t been here for a long time, I recognized a

There were those from the Iraq war I served with, and those whose families I have met since moving here.” Abrams recounted the experience of delivering the news of a family member’s passing and the solemnity and difficulty of the moment, as well as the process of bringing a family member home to the airport and then the cemetery. Abrams
highlighted the emotion of the playing of “Taps” at such services. “It’s not something that happened in the past. It’s something that is happening today,” he said. “I would like to suggest to you some of what the fallen soldiers might say to us today. Here’s what I think COMMEMORATION On Page 5

27 countries of the EU have tentatively agreed to stop the flow of Russian fuel products by the end of the year, as part of ongoing sanctions against the country for its war on Ukraine. The deal does not include oil which is transported to Hungary, Slovakia, and the Czech Republic, which critics say may render the move significantly less effective.

Meteor Shower visible early this week
The tau Herculid meteor shower should be visible to many observers during Monday and Tuesday of this week. The shower is the result of a broken comet tail, which is expected to be most visible from 11:00 p.m. onwards in the Mountain Time Zone. The comet, officially known as SW3 last passed by earth close enough to be visible in 2006. The timing corresponds with a new moon, meaning the sky should be as dark as possible for meteor viewing.
Cake Thrown at the Mona Lisa
A man allegedly dressed as an older woman in a wheelchair apparently chose to make a statement about “protecting the Earth” by throwing a piece of cake at the glass barrier protecting one of the world’s most famous paintings over the weekend. Shouting, “There are people who want to damage the earth!” the 36 year old man threw a pastry toward the masterpiece before being detained by security. The painting, which is roughly 500 years old, has been attacked before, as well as stolen. In this case, no damage was done except to common sense.
Splash Pad open for season
The Splash Pad at the Malad City Park officially turned its jets on last week as school let out, bringing out kids in droves to the recently installed summer cooldown haven. The Splash Pad was built as part of a grant last year, and opened at the tail end of the summer. This year, local kids should have a full season in which to enjoy it!

OBITUARIES
Chad J. Stevens
ula D. Evans
(1932-2022)
Life Sketch The adventure began for Chad Joshua Steven in the Four Corners region of Southwest Colorado on September 3rd, 1932, as the 6th child of Daniel and Virga Stevens. He would end up living and working in all four States within a radius of 100 miles from where his grandfather and great uncle helped carve the Hole in the Rock Trail just 50 years earlier as part of the Pioneer Migration. Chad’s journey took him throughout the Western United States, Hawaii and all of the Northern Pacific with stops in the Philippines, Korea, Japan, Alaska, and the Arctic Ocean. Chad’s adventures started early in life when he got to live in caves as a toddler while his father tried to establish a farm during the Depression in Southeastern Utah. He enjoyed telling of being a modern day caveman. That farm did not work out for his family, so his dad headed North, stopping for a time in Challis, Idaho for a couple of years where Chad got to be baptized in an irrigation ditch after they broke the ice off the water. Then it was on to Northern Montana for the rest of the 1940s. Here Chad graduated high school in 1950, serving as Senior Class president, Student Body president, Boy’s State officer, and his favorite position, State Officer in the FFA (compete with the coveted Blue Corduroy Jacket with all the pins). Next stop was military service in the U.S. Navy in 1952. While stationed in San Francisco he met and married Ruby Jean Holden, a cute little redhead from the Four Corners area of Colorado. Chad was selected for Salvage Diving School with training in Bayonne, New Jersey. As a Deep Sea Salvage diver after WWII and the Korean War, Chad got to travel all over the Northern Pacific Ocean, patching up, refloating, or sinking ships damaged in the wars. Now married to his wife Ruby, they were sealed in the Hawaiian temple while stationed out of Pearl Harbor. Chad truly love his time traveling to ports all over the Northern Pacific Ocean, including Hawaii, the Philippines, Taiwan, Korea, Japan, Vietnam, and north to Alaska. Not only did he enjoy new places, but he loved the people. Chad got to experience a multitude of different cultures, but came to appreciate how alike the people were as children of the same Heavenly Father, even as they rebuilt their lives after the war. After an Honorable Discharge in 1956, Chad and Ruby headed back to northern Montana to start a life and family together on the family farm. Together they were going to raise pigs to pay for starting a cattle herd, but the winter of 1956-7 was brutally cold. The high for one whole month was -30 F. The first litter of pigs froze under their mother. To save their cash crop, Ruby (9 ½ months pregnant) gathered up the little piglets and put them in the kitchen oven to warm and try to save them. Always the farmer, where more is better, Chad decided to turn the oven to broil and warm them up quicker. Together the new couple managed to save every piglet in the litter. It is not clear whether it was the frostbite or the broiler, but all the pigs lost their ears, snouts, and tails, making it rather hard to sell them the following summer. It has always been tough to be a beginning farmer. The couple’s first child, Teri, was born one week after the piglets in the oven incident with much less drama. Farming in Montana was less than successful, so it was back to the Four Corners to try something else. Something Else turned out to be selling and repairing Singer sewing machines. Chad settled his young family this time in northwest New Mexico and started his next career as a sewing machine salesman and repairman with the Singer Sewing Machin Company. Chad was always good with people and enjoyed working with his hands, and he got to do both in his new profession. A son, Jeff, was added to the growing family at this time, and Chad was doing well as a salesman— well enough that after a few years he was transferred to Orange County, California. It was at this time their last child was born, Tammy. Chad and Ruby’s family was now complete. As the country prospered, fewer clothes were being sewn at home and Chad made a lateral move into the women’s dress industry, moving to Logan, Utah to be the floor manager and sewing machine repairman at Mode O’Day. This led to similar positions with other companies in Ogden, Salt Lake, and Vernal, Utah. Here, Chad served as the Ward Clerk. Chad spent a total of 13 years in the sewing business until he had to scratch a life long itch to be his own boss. After spending a couple of days working with his new brother-in-law, Lee Hendrix, at a Thanksgiving family reunion in Tempe, Arizona, Chad moved his wife and children to Mesa, Arizona to start a construction company specializing in roofing. While in Mesa, Chad held callings as

Stevens
Sunday School Superintendent, Ward Clerk, and served two stake missions. From 1972 until 1990 Chad built Steven Roofing, Inc. into the largest roofing company in the East Valley area. His company offered employment to many of his family members, including brothers, nephews, his son, sons-in-law, brotherin-law, nieces’ husbands as well as many others. At its largest, Chad’s company employed over fifty people. When housing construction slowed, Chad began working on housing projects for Native Americans on different reservations throughout Arizona, and ultimately concentrated on the Navajo Reservation—full circle back to the Four Corners region. This also fulfilled a promise in his patriarchal blessing to work and minister to the Lamanite people. At the same time, his success provided him an opportunity to purchase a small farm in Jerome, Idaho, with thoughts of becoming a gentleman farmer when semi-retirement came along. Farming turned out to be a lot more work for a lot less pay than a gentleman farmer planned, but his 80 acre farm was a great place for his now growing posterity of children and grandkids to come, visit, work, play, and turn back the clock to a simpler time. All the grandkids that came to call him PaPa have fond memories of their farmer GrandPa. The last adventure for Chad, and the one he most enjoyed, was when he and Ruby retired to Malad, Idaho. Chad enjoyed building Ruby her second new house, right across the street from the from their son Jeff and his family. Roger Hampton, son-in-law, also got to be part of the project. Ruby could now enjoy the all-white living room she always wanted, without the manure from the farm. Chad job a job with Dave Harris of Double H Farms as a hired man and finally got to be a part of a big successful farming operation with lots of work to do and none of the financial headaches—and boy did he like to drive big tractors and combines! And Dave Harris is a great mechanic and only complained a little when Chad would break something. The partnership worked well, until at 84 years old, Chad just could not climb the ladder to the big equipment any more. Life catches up to everyone, eventually. With infirmities catching up to them, Chad and Ruby moved to Mendon, Utah to the home of their daughter Tammy to be looked after by both daughters, Teri Ballard and Tammy Hampton. Over the years, Chad shared many experiences he had in his life. When his life was dedicated to the Lord, it must have come with a promise of protection. Chad was watched over all his life. He received promptings to leave when he was in unsafe places, he was protected physically when working hundreds of feet under water, and was protected from harm while providing for his family. Chad also served the Lord by giving literally of himself. Over his lifetime, he gave more than ten gallons of blood to those who needed it. Having O negative blood, he was always needed. Many times, his family remembers when he would receive a call late in the evening asking if he could come right away, as there was someone in need of his blood. Of course he always went. When asked in the last weeks of his life what his greatest accomplishments were, Chad said it was his fine children that took care of him and his wife, as well as good friends, and his love of the gospel of Jesus Christ.

in our own things. After that last Mr. Vaghun BBQ, we were ready for the challenge of high school. “Now we have been told that high school is the time of your lives and that you need to enjoy it. I truly believe that we all made the most out of our high school experience and we made it the best 4 years that we have had so far. We have had many challenges thrown at us during our 4 years. From having to move to online school during COVID to learning which path to take to homeroom so Tansy wouldn’t give you a tardy slip, we were able to learn how to get things done in different conditions. We have all had obstacles in our lives and learning how to overcome them is one of the best things for us. “In our 4 years, we were given the opportunity to become members of teams and clubs. These gave us opportunities to gain new skills and create many memories. We were able to learn how to work as a team and get tasks done as a whole. We learned how to become leaders and how we each have our own skills that are valuable and unique. We also learned many other things during these activities. Like how if you are involved in anything with Ryan and there is a body of water nearby, he will end up in it at one point at his will or not. How you don’t want to be on the other side of the ball from Amy or Gill during a powderpuff game. Or that if you need a fresh haircut the baseball and track team can fix you up real nice. But most importantly we learned the importance of setting goals. If you want to become successful you need to set goals for yourself. Now class, we all made the first major goal in life tonight, but we need to continue to set goals for ourselves so we know what to aim for. “I know for some of you High School has been your whole life but this is not the end of the line. High School is just the end of the first chapter of our lives. Starting tonight we are opening the new and more exciting chapters of each and every one of our lives. Classmates, be sad because we are saying goodbye to most of our friends. Parents, be sad that your kids are moving out on their own, “Or be jumping up with joy,” whatever your case may be. And teachers be sad that you are losing the best grade to go through this high school. But everyone BE proud of what we all have accomplished. Our lives are not defined by how well we did in athletics, how high our GPA was, or how many Friday schools we had to attend because you were tardy for class. But our life is what we make it ourselves. We are on our own now and we are in charge of our own success. We have nothing holding us back C Y

now so what is stopping us all from becoming as successful as we can be. Success is something that looks very different for all of us. We all have our own ideas of what success looks like and we can’t let others get in the way of our own. Success can be anything that brings joy to your life. We need to all strive to find what brings us success. Success and failure often sit right next to each other and that is why many are afraid to take the chance on what may make them successful. We must not be afraid to try again and again when we fail. NBA Legend Michael Jordan says, “I’ve failed over and over again in my life, and that is why I succeed.” Classmates, If you take one thing out of my speech tonight I want you to all know that failure is the one thing that will all make us stronger. As we move on don’t be afraid to take the risks. If we live content in a comfortable norm, we will never be able to experience the highs of life. We have much potential sitting here tonight and it is my wish that every one of you will be able to reach your full potential. Congratulations Class of 2022.” Valedictorian Sam Pickett Next on the program was Valedictorian Samuel Pickett. He gave a memorable speech, stating he planned to keep it short. He said, “Hi! So for those of you who don’t know me and some of you who do, I don’t like giving speeches, much less one in public. As a matter of fact, this speech is the reason why I did not want to be Valedictorian or Salutatorian. But since I have to do this speech, I figured I might as well make it as short as possible. My family actually started placing bets on how long my speech would be. My brother, Andrew, said that my speech would be between 1 second and 999,999,999,999,999 seconds, which is roughly 31.7 million years, so it was a bit of a spectrum. He later amended it to 3 minutes. “However, when some of my classmates heard how short I was planning on making my speech, they were a bit peeved. They wanted me to make it longer. So to those of you who wanted me to make my speech longer, your wish has been granted. I actually considered just copying and pasting a chapter of Lord of the Rings into my speech just to extend its length, though I decided against it. “But I did remember a quote from the Two Towers. For some context, this was part of a speech given to Frodo by Sam when he felt like giving up. It goes, “ It’s like in the great stories, Mr. Frodo. The ones that really mattered. Full of darkness and danger they were. And sometimes you didn’t want to know the end. Because how could the end be happy? How could the world go back to the way it was when so much bad had

happened. But in the end, it’s only a passing thing, this shadow. Even darkness must pass. A new day will come. And when the sun shines it will shine out the clearer. Folk in those stories had lots of chances of turning back only they didn’t. Because they were holding on to something.” So when the bad days come, and they will, I hope that we all have something that we can hold onto. “Now for those of you who are wondering what my original speech was going to be, don’t worry. It’s still in here, I just added on top of it. From the end of this sentence to the end of this speech was what I originally planned to say. Congratulations Class of 2022.” Superintendent Jon Abrams Superintendent Jon Abrams’ speech was based on a quote from Mother Teresa which read, “People are often unreasonable, irrational, and self centered. Forgive them anyways. If you are kind, people may accuse you of selfish, ulterior motives. Be kind anyway. If you are successful, you will win some unfaithful friends and some genuine enemies. Succeed anyway. If you are honest and sincere people may deceive you. Be honest and sincere anyway. What you spend years creating, others could destroy overnight. Create anyway. If you find serenity and happiness, some may be jealous. Be happy anyway. The good you do today, will often be forgotten. Do good anyway. Give the best you have and it will never be enough. Give your best anyway. In the final Analysis, it is between you and God. It was never between you and them anyway.” He spoke to the graduates about how they can use this quote to help them succeed in their future and how it can help them be the best people they can be. Commencement Speaker Kory Kay Malad High School Teacher Kory Kay was selected as the Commencement Speaker by the Class of 2022. He began his career at Malad High School the same year the graduates started their high school experience. He was introduced by Malad HIgh School Senior Class President Tayson Davis, who talk-

ed about Kay graduating from Brigham Young University - Idaho and then after one year of teaching, moved back to the family farm in Swan Lake area. He is married with two daughters he likes to talk to the students about. He has coached various sports, like football and basketball, as well as taught a variety of subjects, including World History, conditioning, and US History. Kay began his speech by asking the graduates “What’s up kids? That’s the last time you will have to hear that from me.” Kay also mentioned that he did not realize the short speech was an option and wished he had known that was available before he wrote his speech for that night. Kay then said, “It’s an honor to be speaking here at your graduation. We started high school together here at Malad High four years ago and now we get to celebrate the end of it together. I’ve always felt like the Mr. Feeney to your Boy Meets World. I don’t plan to follow you to college though. We won’t get to that season.” “Your freshman year I had some of you for your first high school class. We debated how the pyramids were built and played a million Kahoots. Sam (Pickett) always won and was so enthusiastic about winning. (Colton) Ihler was always a good second place though, as long as Clara (Huckaby) wasn’t in that class. I introduced you to good music. At least Amy, Bridger, and McCall would agree. Riggin and Carson al-
ways loved the weight room music. I even coached many of you through your first season of high school football and basketball. “I had my first kid at the end of your freshman year. When I would tell you guys stories about her or show you pictures of how cute she was you always acted like you cared. Kay continued, “Your sophomore year: “Matt and Karson made our health class a “safe place” and aggressively made sure that everyone knew to feel safe there. Jade doesn’t remember because she was asleep most of the time. Some of you also decided to try and get “swole” that year by taking my weights class. Guys like Cooper, Vinny, Davis, Riley, and Jace took that class for multiple years. And for the most part, it didn’t make much difference. In the future, I recommend spending more time lifting the weights than taking pictures of them to post on Snapchat or Instagram and spending so much time in the mirror looking for muscles. In weights Horsely taught us that curls are an effective exercise for any day of the week. Didn’t matter what muscle group you were working, curls (or as we now call them “Horsely’s”) can help. You also made it through COVID that year and were never so excited to come back to “real school” that fall. That didn’t last long. “Now your junior year, you took a bit of a detour: “I don’t teach any junior classes. So, I understand that many of you felt abandoned and
were tricked into latching on to another male teacher who has a decent beard, receding hairline, wears glasses, and tells bad jokes. No, I am not talking about Mr. Williams. You know who I’m talking about. Maggie, Clara, and Whitney and any others still on that side of the fence; I forgive you. “Your senior year, however, many of you returned to the fold and came back to the light to finish off your high school careers. I tried to make sure that you were not cheated of vital life knowledge like so many other high schoolers across the country. I taught you how to do your taxes in Econ! Surprisingly, Jade may have been one of the few to actually stay awake during that one. Everyone else woke up once “someone” started swearing. “And now we’re here. I can’t decide what is more surprising, the fact that this day is finally here or the fact that so many of you made it to this day. Looking at you, Buttheads. You found a way. That has always kind of been the theme of this class. They have always found a way. When the odds have been stacked against them by things totally out of their control (or things totally in their control) they have always found a way to beat them. Kay continued, “I want to share a quick story and some advice to finish. About 10 years ago, my dad, little brother, and I decided to take a horse ride to the top of Oxford Peak. My little brother CONGRATULATIONS On Page 4 C Y

and I had never been up there and I was excited to see the view from the top. I noticed that as we rode up the mountain that we weren’t always riding up. It seemed that for every bit of progress up the mountain that we made, we had to go down some other way to make it to the top of the next ridge. It was a continuous series of ups and downs. I was frustrated by this and I was always looking for an easier way to go to maintain our upward progress, but my dad would always strongly encourage us to take the best path which sometimes took us down rather than up. “As we slowly made progress to the top we would pause at the top of each ridge and look across the valley. At each peak I would say how beautiful the view was and my dad would wisely reply ‘Just wait til we get to the top.’ When we finally did make it to the top, the view was beautiful. I could see farther than I had ever seen before. It was breathtaking. “Now what does this have to do with you guys? Well kids, life is not like a box of chocolates. It’s like climbing a mountain. The mountain represents what you want in life and what you are capable of achieving, your potential. If you want to reach the top you have to climb the mountain which means going through the ups and downs to get there. It will not be easy, but it will be worth it. Look where you are! You’ve already conquered one of life’s biggest mountains and while you may not agree right now, it was worth it. Kay then offered the graduates some advice. He said, “ Some advice as you begin to climb your next mountain. Put your phones away and get your notes out… just kidding. They’re on Schoology. “1. Be humble and honest with yourself about who you are and your current trajectory (or where your current path is taking you). Don’t be victims. It’s not everyone else’s fault and it’s not that everything is against you. Be accountable for who you are and where you are in life. Optimism is great, but optimism without a sprinkle of realism is more dangerous than outright pessimism. “2. Seek out and accept help from others. Sometimes you are “not enough” alone, and that’s ok. Create relationships with people who have already climbed the mountains you want to climb. “3. And finally be persistent. Just like the mountain, you will experience many highs in your life. Each will usually be followed by a low. It will be tempting to be satisfied with each high. To stay there and enjoy the nice view from there. Likewise, it will be discouraging to even try and recover from a low and you may think it best to abandon your climb all together. Kids, avoid failure, C Y

but don’t be afraid of it. When it happens don’t be discouraged by it. Be persistent. Enjoy success when it happens, but don’t be satisfied with it.Be persistent. “I promise, you will all find success (whatever that word means to you and hopefully you will allow that definition to grow and evolve over time) in your life if you learn to do those three things. Know that you are loved or at least cared for by all of the teachers here at Malad High. We all wish you the best on your next adventure and may you conquer any mountain you choose to climb. Thank you.” Student Body President Bridger Bastian Student Body President Bridger Bastain then gave some advice to his classmates. He said, “My fellow 2022 graduates, family members, teacher, administrators, school board, it is an honor to speak to all of you tonight. Well I’d like to say this is the first time I haven’t heard or seen Corbett tell Matt, Carson, Justin, Ashton, or Daxton to take those darn hats off. I’m going to try to keep this short and sweet like Coach Kay so we can get out of here at a good time. “Well, maybe for the first time in our lives, our parents were right, it did go fast! Many people say that today is the day we start our journey. I disagree. The journey began a long time ago. Today just happens to be the day where the path we have been traveling on splits into 67 unique roads. Up until now we have been a team walking as one. We have done it all and we have done it together. “Many of us have belonged to this school district since we started kindergarten, thirteen years ago, and I want to take us all back to the date, August 24, 2009 This was the first day of school and the start of our journey. Parents walked us up to the elementary school doors, where roughly a thousand pictures were taken. Or they patiently waited for the bus with us. For the next five years after this first day of school, we were blessed with recess where we would spend our time either playing football on the back field or red rover in the front. Where we all wanted to pick Amy because she wasn’t scared to tackle any boy. Or on those cold snowy winter days where we would see whose class could build the biggest snowman or coolest snow fort. Elementary days also brought the Halloween parade and carnival, the classic 5th grade dodgeball tournament, where Ms. Schwartz’s class ended up winning almost all of them, and we can’t forget about the joys of AR reading and all the tests that came with them. But the best part was the opportunity to go shop at the AR store. Through it all, elementary school was the first step in our journey together. And then came middle school. “I think I can speak
for everyone when I say these were probably the most awkward three years of our lives. From the infamous school dances where looking at the ground and dancing like a zombie was normal, or walking to Thomas market for lunch regardless of the weather outside, and then there’s changing in the locker rooms which lead to the discovery of new bodily smells. Middle School was fun but just another step in our journey together. “Now it's 2019 and we’re now the scrawny freshman, well all except Riley cause he looked like he could’ve graduated freshman year. Even though we lacked in size, our spirit and unity made up for the rest helping us to win homecoming our freshman year which had never been done. “Now sophomore year, nobody wants to talk about the covid year. The end of this year we went to virtual learning which at first was a struggle, but thanks to our amazing teachers, staff, and administration we were able to complete the school year. And I’m speaking for the class of 2022 right now when I say we give a huge thank you to the mute and camera off buttons. Couldn’t have done it without ya. “As we headed into our junior year, we soon learned that this was the year of tests. Which range from the SAT, ASVAB, ISATS, not to forget the good old covid tests, and this supposedly important one called the ACT. Some of you may have heard of it. But my good buddy Matt said if you just put your name on it you’ll still get credit. And if you wanna know something about anything in this world, Matt’s your guy. “We’ve saved the best for last. Senior year was a wild one. Some things I know we all won’t forget would be supporting our football team on those Friday nights, going to the basketball games and listening to our amazing pep band, and we can’t forget about our awesome mascot thunder the dragon aka Gill getting the crowd going. Some might remember watching Billy and Odey ride whatever they just made in the shop around the parking lot. We also have had multiple state champion athletes in this graduating class. One thing that is for sure is that we all will remember senior project but we definitely won’t miss it, but the skills learned won’t be forgotten. “And now here we stand. Our rule is over, and I know that as I look out at all of you, I will measure my time here in a much different way. I will measure it in all the friendships I've enjoyed these last four years. Some were pretty casual and others were much closer, but I'll remember each one fondly, as I'm sure you all will, too. And when many of our high school memories begin to fade, that's how we'll ultimately measure the time we spent here, not in periods or semesters or years, but in the
June 2, 2022
Bailey Timothy was awarded the Kambrie Horsley Memorial Scholarship by the Horsley family
friendships that we made and the times we shared together. And don’t worry when we’re as old as Dahlke and as forgetful as Shannon we can all rely on being Facebook friends one day. “Those 12 years are behind us now on the road to our next milestone in our journey. This class of 2022 has made history here. We see it each day as we walk down the halls. You see the work of artists in our commons and foyer. You see the achievements in sports hanging in our gym and trophy cases down the halls. And each morning you hear the time and practice put in by our musicians. Or you hear the loud noises of the boys and girls putting their skills to the test in the shops. And you see the academic achievements through the dedication and the hard work of students in the classrooms. Everyone should be proud of what they have achieved. These years have been nothing less than a success. It was not easy though. We survived a pandemic, online school, and hardest of all, Mrs. McClain’s math tests. Just kidding, Dahlke’s were worse, lol. “Now here we are. We made it! This journey we’ve been on brings us to today, May 25, 2022. We began high school as kids, but we're leaving here as adults. We've completed a basic education that will serve as the platform we use to launch ourselves into our futures. Some of us will go on to college, some straight out on missions, some will join the military and others will go straight into the workforce, but each of us will travel our own path. This is the part of our journey where we stop for a moment, to take a rest and to reflect on all that has been accomplished. What we have done together over the past few years is truly wonderful. We stuck together and grew together and I could not have chosen a better class to be a part of. I have faith in each and every one of you, that no matter which road each of you choose to travel, you will make it your own and you will succeed. My challenge to each of you, and to myself, is to do all that you can do to reach your full potential. If each of the
67 students in this graduating class is able to do that, just imagine the effect that would have. The future is truly in our hands, so let's make the most of it.” Diplomas The graduation proceeded with Principal Corbett recommending the Class of 2022 for graduation. He talked about some of what he loved about the Class of 2022 and mentioned how proud of them he was for how far they have come since they started out with him as their principal. Kirk Willie, Chairman of the Oneida School Board, then accepted the Class of 2022 for graduation. Afterward, Willie handed out diplomas and the students walked across the stage to show everyone the hard work and dedication that earned them a place with their classmates in that group that day. Students returned to their seats and waited for the rest of their class to receive their diplomas. After all graduates had cross the stage, diplomas in hand, the graduates, under the command of President Tayson Davis, switched their tassels to the left side, signifying their graduation, sang the Malad High School Song, and threw their caps into the air in celebration of their accomplishments as a class. After the graduation was over, to the music of “Good Old Days” by Macklemore and Kesha, the Graduates left the high school gym and went outside where they were able to meet their families on the front lawn to take photos and receive congratulations. Later that night, those who graduated got to attend a party at the Rush Funplux where they had one last celebration as a whole class.

We’re not defined by one race, one religion, one political party, one state. We are the United States of America. One nation, under God.

On Saturday, the Malad Middle School MathCounts Team will sponsor pioneer games, including walking on stilts, tug of war, and ball games that pioneer kids and teens may have played as they trekked across the
Plains. The winning works of art from the Youth Art Competition will be displayed in the Relief Society Room of the 2nd Ward Church (the building next to Malad City Park). On Friday afternoon, the semi-finalists in the Youth Poetry Competition will compete for the crown and cash prizes as they read their poems. The Youth Music Concert will be held right after the Youth

Kids' Games at the Welsh Festival This year’s Malad Valley Welsh Festival, to be held June 24-25, will include many activities for kids of all ages. Families will want to go out to Samaria on either Friday or Saturday so kids can ride Welsh ponies, pet Welsh corgies, see Welsh sheep, and pan for gold that may have come from the Mine with the Iron Door (but probably not).

Frozen Cow opens for business Just as summer begins rolling into Malad, so has a tasty new venture- The Frozen Cow. Featuring Reed’s Dairy ice cream from Idaho Falls, The Frozen Cow provides tried and true ice cream favorites, as well as signature flavors and treats. On Saturday, May 21, The Frozen Cow had its grand opening, giving Malad its first taste of the frozen fun it will be starring this summer. Quinn Eliason and The Frozen Cow first made their debut at the Malad 4th of July festivities in 2021. After a successful day serving their scoops to Malad’s finest at the park’s patriotic festivities, Quinn took the trailer full of creamy treats to Downey’s fair where they had another booming week of frozen fun. Since that time, Quinn has been contemplating opening for business in Malad over the summer months full time and jumped at the
opportunity as things started to fall into place. The Frozen Cow is a fun blend of many of Quinn’s interests. After studying business in college, the idea of having his own side gig always sounded fun. His love for ice cream and all things dairy, a healthy appreciation for a good cow, combined with a great place for such a business in Malad got things churching in Quinn’s mind. Katelyn, Quinn’s wife, worked at Reed’s Dairy for several years and since then has touted it to be the very best ice cream around. With such fun flavors as Blue Moon, Bubble Bear, Monster Cookie and Mom Recipe, we may all soon agree with her. Quinn has partnered with his mother, Kristy Eliason, to begin this sweet, new business. Over many, many years, Kristy has gained a lot of knowledge, experience and love for feeding and
serving the masses as she has put on various concession stands and food catering. Kristy had her start with her own parents, Jim and Donna Anderson, as they had their own food service business. Purchasing her food trailer in 2021 was the next step to taking her tasty eats on the road. Quinn’s idea to use the food trailer for Malad’s own ice cream on wheels has turned out to be the start of a great partnership. A win for Quinn, Kristy and The Frozen Cow is a win for Malad as we all get to enjoy the sweet dairy treats all summer long. The Frozen Cow plans to be open during the evening hours from 5 p.m. to 9 p.m....11:30 a.m. to 9 p.m. Saturday. The Frozen Cow crew says to “moo”ve on down for some “udder”ly delicious treats!

They visited the Courthouse, City Offices, the Museum and the Co-op. They learned that justice is done right here, decisions are made that affect their everyday lives, early artifacts are preserved and that we have a huge artifact in the process of being preserved. Local life. They met people they know doing jobs that need to be done. Local life is significant to those who value the everyday. Sometimes I worry that we think so much about tomorrow, we forget to appreciate and enjoy the
now. Grandma Red and I went for a walk at our local greenbelt the other morning. It was about 6:00 a.m. The sun was just lighting the sky. The new lampposts glowed. The grass was green. The trees were in full bloom. The temperature was perfect. We could see a friend walking ahead of us. It was a scene right out of Currier and Ives. We got to talking about how we owed this walk to Ruth Zivkovic, a former city council woman and citizen with a purpose. Granted, many

others have played a significant role in the development and building of our greenbelt, but she got it started. Her relentless personality and quirky determination have left us with a lasting gift. Our good life is better because of Ruth. I, for one, would love to see a sign at the head of the walking path welcoming everyone to the Ruth Zivkovic Greenbelt. It just seems right to acknowledge one of our local heroes.

Daiko Abe speaks to city and county officials about the Hazard Mitigation plan
Public Hazard Mitigation Meeting brings project closer to completion On Thursday, May 26, the public and stakeholders in the Hazard Mitigation plan process gathered at the firestation to discuss a draft of the final form of the Hazard Mitigation plan, which will ultimately be submitted to the state authorities for authorization. Having a countywide mitigation plan in place will allow Oneida county to apply for a wide variety of grants for pre-incident projects, as well as post-disaster relief FEMA funds, should it face any disasters, natural or otherwise. The planning session was organized by Emergency Manager Dan Williams, and was attended by representatives of the Board of County Commissioners, the government of the City of Malad, the Road and Bridge Department, the BLM, the Forest Service, the State of Idaho, Public Health, ATC, the Hospital and Fire Districts, and members of the public. Daiko Abe, representative of the contracting agency who has been shepherding the process for the last half year, ran the meeting. The plan calls for those within the county to create a future roadmap for known and potential disasters, which can then be used to access specific funding streams for remediation projects, including forward-looking prevention efforts as well as clearly identified areas for which post-disaster remediation might be necessary. During the first part of the session, those in attendance were asked to finalize the priority
list of threats to both the county and the city. The threats considered most significant in terms of their potential to disrupt systems, people, and property in the county followed from what they had been in past mitigation plans: wildfire, sever winter storms, drought, earthquake, and extreme weather were listed highest. The rising threats related to cybersecurity were noted as quickly becoming more relevant each year. Both the hospital and the county explained that while they had not yet been impacted, they saw constant threats against their cyber networks on a daily basis. The potential hazards were ranked according to a number of criteria, such as the potential for injury or loss of life, the costs to property or infrastructure, the potential to effect other systems, and the historical data regarding past instances. Earthquakes, for instance, were rated very highly as a result of several large historical occurrences (most notably in 1975), as well as the frequency of smaller quakes on a yearly basis. It was reported that a quake that can be felt in the valley occurs on average once every three and a half years. Obviously, the catastrophic outcome of a major earthquake also elevates its placement. The most significant threats against the city were fairly similar, with severe winter weather, drought, earthquake, and utility disruption being highlighted. Over the last two years, the issue of Public Health has also been an important and immediate

problem and has moved up both lists. On the other hand, there were a number of issues which were deemed to be less relevant to the area, and were removed. West Nile virus, while it was a public health concern over a decade ago, has had an insignificant occurrence rate in Oneida and the surrounding counties. Similarly, Hoof and Mouth disease and tornado outbreaks (though not high winds) were considered relatively unimportant for mitigation. The second half of the meeting was used to identify and prioritize specific projects that might be undertaken in the city or county to mitigate the extent of future disasters. Such projects included attention to culverts and roadways, communications equipment for emergency responders across the county, and the new idea of conducting a flow survey of hazardous materials that travel past town on the I-15. After the hazard mitigation plan draft is prepped, the next step will be to make copies available to the public for feedback, after which the completed plan will be submitted to the state for approval. After those steps are completed, the plan will be vetted by federal authorities, and serve as the basis for any future grant or fund applications to a variety of granting agencies, including FEMA.
Pamila (Pam) A. Smith, age 80, passed away on Friday, May 27, 2022, surrounded by her loving family in her beloved home in Malad, Idaho. Pam was born in Tremonton, Utah on September 13, 1941, a daughter of Virgil L. and Virginia Fern Cornwall Anderson.

LOOKING BACK 5 YEARS AGO (2017) On Monday, May 29, the American Legion Ernest W. Jones Post #65 and the American Legion Auxiliary sponsored the traditional Memorial Day program at the Malad City Cemetery. Conducting was Post member Thayne Barker. After the Pledge of Allegiance, a prayer was offered by Larry Nalder, Post Chaplain. Guest speaker for the 2017 program was Oneida County Commissioner Bob Stokes and musical numbers were offered by the Webster family. A three-volley salute in honor of deceased veterans was performed by the Legion Honor Guard, followed by the playing of Taps. During the morning and afternoon Legionnaires visited the cemeteries in the Oneida County communities of Holbrook, St. John, Pleasantview, Samaria, Cherry Creek and in the Utah communities of Snowville, Portage, Washakie and Plymouth. Pictured in the Idaho Enterprise are the 20172018 Seminary Council. The Council members are Kaylee Origer, Kambree Christensen, Hailee Schwartz, President Kaleb Mills, Drew Green, MaCall Smith and Willard Wray. Brittney and Sidney Tubbs kept their family busy on May 6, 2017. Both graduated from college, on at ISU and one at
Utah State. Brittney graduated from Idaho State University with a Master of Physical Education and Athletic Administration Degree. Sidney graduated from Utah State University with a Bachelor of Science Degree majoring in Family, Consumer and Human Development with an emphasis in Family and Community Services. On May 17, 2017, twenty top spelling third graders competed in a final spelling bee. they spelled all the most difficult words on the third grade list and finished using a more advanced list. Paisley Smith was the grand champion winner, with Caleb Roe second, Adi Schow third, Cam Bingham fourth and Jaezie Jensen fifth. the children were honored at the Elementary Awards Program. Qualifying for State in District 4 Rodeo competition are Wyatt Warren with a second place finish in the 22 shoot and a sixth place finish in trap shooting; Kallee Warren who finished first in pole bending, fourth in breakaway roping, fifth in goat tying and fifth in barrel racing and Abby Timothy who finished fourth in goat tying. 10 YEARS AGO (2012) The Malad High School Class of 2012 recognized 46 graduates
at Malad High School’s 99th annual Commencement Exercises. Addressing the graduates were Valedictorian Cameron Watkins and Salutatorian Carlie Stewart. Kathleen Atkinson was the Commencement speaker for the Class of 2012. Oneida High School (OHS) had their biggest graduating class when they held their Spring 2012 Commencement Exercises on May 23. They graduated 12 students during this ceremony. On a cold and stormy Saturday the skies cleared just in time for the dedication of the “Christmas Box Angel Monument at the Malad City Cemetery. Lisa Johnson, representing the Christmas Box Angel organization, made some remarks at the dedication and Craig Jensen, a former Malad resident, dedicated the monument as “a place of remembrance and healing and love”. The trio of Paisley Smith, MaCall Smith and Raegan Smith sang “I Am A Child of God” and “Angels” dressed in white, Jaycee Sweeten, Katie Ward, Sadie Sweeten, Mattie Ward and McKenna Heart signed “Love” from the song, “Angels Among Us”. 15 YEARS AGO (2007) The CAP contract has officially been withdrawn from Oneida County. Meeting in spe-
cial session, the Commissioners were notified by Pat McDonald, The U.S. Marshall for Idaho. The Marshal’s Service needs the jail space too badly to drag it on any longer, McDonald said. The contract in eastern Idaho will necessarily have to be awarded to a different entity. The Malad High School Class of 2007 received their high school diplomas during the 94th annual Commencement Exercises on May 22. There were 71 graduates who received diplomas from Malad High School. Addressing the class were Valedictorians Brittany Buehler, Ammon Treasure and Salutatorians Miya Alger and Luke Beck. Commencement speaker was Major Erik Knutsen.

Ryan Hannah will be serving the students as Business
Manager. Tori Hill will once again be working on school spirit as the Head Cheerleader. 25 YEARS AGO (1997) Sixty-nine graduating seniors were awarded diplomas at the Malad High School’s 84th annual Commencement on May 21. Delivering the valedictorian and salutatorian addresses were Charlotte Firth and Kyle Tubbs. Malad Elementary counselor Robert Hannah keynoted the program with the Commencement address. Malad joined with the rest of the nation in paying tribute to its war dead and loved one in cemeteries and graves across the Nation. Cemeteries throughout the Valley looked resplendent with beautiful flowers and mementoes, put there by family and friends. Auxiliary president, Joan Potts presented an impressive MIA and POW Ceremony while another Legion member placed a cover over an empty chair representing the missing in action and the prisoners of war. Reverend Richard A. Scott, Pastor of the First Presbyterian Church was the guest speaker. Pat Terrel, vice president for student services announced students who were on the winter quarter honor roll for Utah State University in Logan. Students from Malad are Christie Nalder, Kris L. Howard,
Celeste Christophersen Biggs, Rochelle Panting and Kevin Mark Peterson. The College of Southern Idaho, Twin Falls, released its spring semester honor roll.

The two Malad women spent 16-days touring China and Japan. One of their most interesting tours was at Xian where they were able to see the Qin Terra Cotta Warriors, considered by some to be the 8th Wonder of the World. These are 10,000 carved soldiers, along with animals and weapons of war. The Malad High School Class of “37” held their 50th year reunion on May 23, at the Legion Building. The tables and hall were decorated with black and orange balloons. Committee member Charles Ward and his wife, Faye, greeted class members and spouses with nametags at the door.

MHS AT STATE TRACK
From the beginning of the 2022 Track and Field season, Coach Billy Kimberling has had the simple goal to take more kids to the end of season State Track Meet than the year before. While it is a simple goal, the steps to achieving that goal have been many and sometimes difficult. In order to achieve that goal, Coach Kimberling and his staff had to teach, encourage, motivate and push the athletes of the MHS track team to be better, week after week. Throughout the season, the athletes and coaches saw highs and lows- weeks of great success, enjoyable weather and progress in their performances as well as weeks of miserably cold weather and discouraging results. Through it all they continued to move forward with that goal in mind to qualify more athletes for state than last year. Of course, it all came down to the District Track Meet held May 10 and 11. The athletes were up to task, giving their all in what could be their final opportunity to compete in what was collectively more than eighty events. The meet concluded with forty-eight new personal records set and fourteen C Y

MHS track and field athletes qualifying for the State Track Meet, nearly double that of last year. With their goal achieved, all that was left to accomplish at the final meet was for each of them to do their very best. After a season of hard work and victories along the way, the athletes set high expectations of competing and success for their performances at the state level. Their final performances met those expectations head on as they together earned twenty-four medals and set an additional eight personal records in their events. Not only did they do well individually, but as a team, they scored the fourth highest number of points that any MHS track team has earned. The girls team took 6th place of the 16 scoring teams, with their score of 46 points, the highest score any MHS girls track team has scored at the state level with only seven athletes. The boys team earned 9th place of the 20 scoring teams with 36 points, also with seven athletes. The boys 1600 M sprint medley relay composed of Tayson Davis, Austin Jacobsen, Jace Williams and Colton Ihler, took fourth place with a time of 3:42.83.
