through entrance fees and donations. This year’s Best in Show winner was a 1957 Handyman 150 owned by Albert Weeden. Main Street remained closed for the duration of the event, which ran from 9:00-4:00 on Saturday. A number of vendors were on hand, as well as the
Fair Board’s Raffle table. The cars, bikes, and trailers on display ranged from early 30s coupes all the way to modern performance cars, with a little bit of everything in between. After a long day of relaxing and enjoying the company of other car
Museum Opens for Season Over 100 plates of cookies, brownies, and muffins, cakes, and loaves of bread were sold during the Oneida Pioneer Museum’s Grand Opening Bake Sale on Saturday, May 28. Provided by Museum Board members and friends, the goodies attracted dozens of visitors to the Museum on its opening day. All proceeds from the bake sale and all donations will go toward remodeling projects in the Museum, including installing earthquake tension bars and sheet-rocking the rooms on the third floor. Some visitors came to see the newly cleaned and refurbished bear. Others brought donations, including an auto-knitter that was used by Rula Yearsley Gowers to make socks. Visitors enjoyed the scenes featuring items from the Museum’s collection that are located throughout the Museum. They were set up by JoAnn Peters and Brianne MacDougal as part of the fabric preservation project so there are new things to see at the Museum this year. The Museum windows were decorated by Dotty Evanson, Sharon Har-
hounds, a full slate of awards were given out. More pictures, and complete list of winners inside on Page 2. 32 ANNUAL CAR & BIKE SHOW On Page 2

Stone Elementary Ends 2022 School Year
The staff and students of Stone Elementary ended the 2021-2022 school year with fanfare and festivities as they had their final activities, field trips and promotions. The fun last week of the school year kicked off with a field trip to the City of Rocks. The kids, joined by teachers, Superintendent Mr. Abrams and parents enjoyed learning of the history of the long-ago pioneers that traveled through the geological wonder. The site tells the story of hundreds of thousands of pioneers that crossed through the city of rock and literally left their mark there. Wagon ruts, inscriptions in the rocks and journal entries left by those pioneers marking their time spent at City of Rocks, can still be found. The highlight of the trip for the students was hiking and climb-
ing around all of the trails and rocks. The five members of the third-grade class enjoyed a field trip of their own, heading into Malad to tour the elementary school. Annually, the Stone third grade class will take time to walk the halls of the school to give them a taste of what school will be like as they attend fourth grade in a new school. The Stone Elementary students enjoyed another field to Malad, beginning the morning at La Grand Aqua Plunge (LAP). They begin their time at the pool by learning important pool and water safety tips from the LAP staff. Despite the chilly weather, the students weren’t deterred from hopping in the pool when the moment finally came to splash and play. The students say a big “Thank you!”

to the staff for working so hard to have the pool warm and ready for their adventure that day. After their pool time fun, the students headed over to Samaria where they enjoyed an afternoon at the Malad Valley Heritage Square with a tour and activities from Luke Wal-
dron. The children enjoyed seeing the historic site and marveled at what life would have been like for the early settlers. The culminating event for the students was the 3rd grade promotion and celebration where each of the students shared about their years at the school.

Marylyn Monson Smith July 23, 1936 - May 27, 2022
Marylyn Monson Smith was born July 23, 1936, the daughter of Max Revere Monson and Cathleen Adele Williams in Malad, Idaho. She was welcomed by an older brother Khalil Monson. She died on May 27, 2022 surrounded by her children. Marylyn attended elementary school in St. John until graduating the 8th grade with the 7 other students in her class. From there she went on to graduate from Malad High School where she took part in publishing the school newspaper and yearbook. As a Freshman a handsome Senior caught Marylyn’s eye but he was leaving for college in the fall. The summer before her Senior year he returned to Malad and when she and her friends entered Bee’s for a soda, there he was. It was love at first sight. Delwyn and Marylyn were married shortly after she graduated, June 16, 1954 and enjoyed 57 years together until his death in 2012. They raised their 3 children, Kevin Max (Karrie) Smith, Sheila Dell (Ray) Robertson, and Kelly Vern (Valerie) Smith.

Ag Corner—Crop Rotation
By Allison Eliason Farming and planting might seem to be a pretty easy task- you put the seed in the dirt, give it a little water every so often and let the sun work its magic to grow that seed into something usable. But farmers put a lot more work and planning into their field, even before they ever bring the tractors in. Research, experience and trial and error over decades continue to help farmers fine tune their practices to help them make the most of their time, energy, space and goods. One of the farming practices that has been used for centuries, yet continues to be improved, is crop rotation. Farmers can be seen across countries like Rome, Greece and China, finding greater yields and soil health by rotating their crops as early as 6000 BC, long before understanding the science behind the practice. Farmers and scientists continue to study crop rotation and recently learned new insights to use the practice to its very fullest. Experience has taught that it is important to rest fields and rotate crops to decrease soil erosion, build soil nutrients and improve soil structure. In fields where the same crops are grown, farmers have found increased erosion where the soil is left uncovered and weakened year after year. With each crop having their own specific root system, shape and spacing, the soil becomes more susceptible to erosion with repeated planting of the same crop. Continuously planting the same crops over the same acreage has been found to decrease soil fertility. Plants will continue to drain the soil of the same nutrients, leaving it depleted and infertile. In times when soil health wasn’t as well understood, farms of infertile ground would often be found abandoned because the caretakers didn’t know what to do to improve the soil health. While using fertilizer
is an important part of improving the land's nutrients, using different crops will decrease the depletion of specific soil components. Raising the same crops over the same acreage increases weed and pest challenges that will decrease overall yields and perpetuate microscopic diseases. Rotating crops aids in pest and weed control, and resistance to diseases. Many diseases and insects that feed on specific crops remain dormant over the winter months and ready to feed again as a new season begins. If their preferred host crop is not planted in the successive year, there isn’t anything for them to feed on again and the pest will likely die. Using the crop rotation method to its fullest capacity means doing more than just simply putting a new crop in the field each year. Farmers, aided by experience and research, have found that the type of crop used, the order of the crops planted and the years within their rotation cycle are all critical to successfully using crop rotation. When farmers consider what crops to plant in what succession, there are several factors they look at. An important consideration is what the water requirements are for individual crops. Some plants require a lot more water than others. Some plants grow deeper roots and are able to access deeper water than others. Rotating between crops that will utilize the water in the ground differently will help keep the moisture from being depleted and more efficiently used. Another consideration for crop planting is what sort of nutrients will the plants take up from the soil and what nutrients might the plant provide back into the soil. For example, peas, soybeans or other legumes fix nitrogen back into the ground, readily available for other plants, such as cereal crops or grasses, heavy nitrogen users, to consume. Farmers also consid-
er how the individual crops will contribute to the soil structure and health. Varying crops with different root depths provides better soil porosity, more diverse soil organisms and a greater content of organic matter. Better soil structure allows plants to develop a better root system, which improves plant health as well as averting erosion, surface runoff and decreasing infertility. Crop rotation is a win all around, for the farmer, the soil, and ultimately, the consumer. Farmers are finding that as they rotate their crops, their improvements to soil condition, water usage and nutrients retention are creating healthier fields with greater yields. They also find that they require less fertilizer and pesticides to manage crop growth, which in turn requires less hours on their equipment and labor force. While there are several advantages to utilizing crop rotation, there are some disadvantages farmers must consider. With diverse crops comes the needs for diverse and specific planting and harvesting equipment, which can be extremely costly. There are certain environments and climates that are not suitable for a variety of crops. Being set in a crop rotation cycle can also be difficult to adapt to changing markets and consumer demands. Taking a closer look at farming practices and the careful planning producers have, helps us to realize, first, what growth the industry has had over hundreds of years. It also helps us to see how dedicated our farmers are at caring for their land while growing the best possible product. As you drive by the fields this summer and recognize that something new and different is growing than the last season, you can know that your local farmers are doing what they can to better improve their operations all the while feeding more families.

Presenters announced for the Festival One thing that sets the Malad Valley Welsh Festival apart from other festivals is the presentations by experts in Welsh culture, history, or language. This year’s Festival on June 24-25 will feature four presentations to be held in the 2nd Ward church building (next to Malad City Park). The presentations are partially funded by grants from the Idaho Humanities Council and the Rocky Mountain Power Foundation. Jan Crowther Myers was named the first Bard of the Festival in 2017. This year she will introduce the Festival at the Opening Ceremony on both Friday and Saturday at 9:15 a.m. She will briefly speak on “Traditional Music and Poetry of Wales.” Jan is a
Malad native who has returned for the Welsh Festival even while living in Italy, Morocco, and Marseilles. Lucie Thomas Washburn has presented at all the Welsh Festivals. This year’s presentation will be based on “Cardiff’s Hall of Heroes,” where wellknown figures in Welsh life are featured. Legendary heroes like King Arthur and real-life heroes like Owain Glyndwr will become familiar to Festival attendees. Lucie won the crown for her prose at the Utah Welsh Poetry and Prose Competition and was awarded First Prize for Prose at the National Gymanfa Ganu. She will present on both Friday and Saturday at 10:00 a.m. Jill Morgan is coming from
Wales for the Festival and will present “A Tour of LDS Historic Sites in 19th Century Wales.” Everyone whose ancestors came from Wales will enjoy seeing pictures and hearing about the places those ancestors lived in Wales. Jill just retired as a Senior Lecturer in Education in Wales after earning her bachelor’s and master’s degrees in special education from Utah State University. She was called to serve on the LDS Church History Committee for the United Kingdom and Ireland, the perfect calling for someone who enjoys history. She will present on both Friday and Saturday at 11:15 a.m. Cathy Clayton, a professor of music at the University of
Jill Morgan
Cathy Clayton
Utah, will present about the Welsh harp, which was the focus of the doctoral dissertation. Her presentation featuring performances on the harp will be at the Friday evening concert at 6:00 p.m. in the 2nd Ward
chapel. All presentations are free and open to the public. Everyone is invited to come and learn about the history and culture of Wales.
Music Featured at the Welsh Festival The history of music in Wales began in the 1100s when groups of bards would get together to recite poetry and sing as they played their Welsh harps. During the last weekend in June, the Malad Valley Welsh Festival will keep that music tradition alive. Jan Crowther Myers, 2017 Festival Bard, will present about the importance of music and poetry in Welsh culture at the Opening Ceremony on both days. Cory Webster, the 2019 Bard of the Welsh Festival, will perform his original cowboy poetry and songs several times during the Festival. During both days of the Festival, Celtic musicians will perform authentic, toe-tapping Celtic music on the amphitheater in Malad City Park. Groups C Y

that will perform on Friday include the Haywire Ranch String Band comprised of Cory and Jill Webster from Downey, the Katie Jane Band from Portland, and Fiddle Express from the Treasure Valley. On Saturday, the Katie Jane Band and Fiddle Express will be joined by Teton Skye, a popular drum and bagpipe band from Idaho Falls. The Youth Music Concert will be at 3:00 on Friday in the 2nd Ward Chapel and will feature some of Malad’s very talented young pianists, vocalists, and instrumentalists. On Friday evening’s concert at 6:00, the Malad Men’s Welsh Chorus will welcome everyone to the Festival with the traditional Welsh song “We’ll Keep a Welcome in the
Valley” and the Welsh National Anthem. Cathy Clayton, professor of music at the University of Utah, will perform traditional Welsh songs on her harp after briefly presenting about Welsh music. Cory Webster, the 2019 Bard, and sisters Christy Oja and Kathryn Fossum will also perform. The crowd favorite Piano Ensemble Concert will be at 1:00 on Saturday in the Church Chapel. Adult pianists seldom have an opportunity to perform in ensembles, so this concert provides a venue for quartets and duets performed by local pianists and friends. The concert will end with a rousing 2-piano, 8-hand arrangement by Mack Wilberg of “Stars and Stripes Forever.” The Welsh Festival will
The Malad Valley Welsh Men's Chorus
conclude on Saturday afternoon with a short gymanfa ganu, a sing-along of traditional, well-known Welsh songs (in English). Music will also be a big part of the 140th anniversary of the Malad Presby-
terian Church, which is the Sunday evening program of the Welsh Festival. The Malad Men’s Welsh Chorus and several local vocalists will perform traditional Presbyterian hymns as part of this
historic program. The music performances at the Festival are partially funded by grants from the Rocky Mountain Power Foundation and the Idaho Commission on the Arts. C Y

LOOKING BACK 5 YEARS AGO (2017) Saturday, June 3, was a beautiful day – the perfect day to attend a car show! The 26th annual Malad Classic Car & Bike Show was held on Main Street and enjoyed by Malad residents and visitors. With approximately 75 cars, pickups and motorcycles on show on Main Street visitors enjoyed trying to choose their favorite car and listening to the rock and roll oldies played by disc jockey J.C. Hackett. Vendors were on hand selling food items and other merchandise, and lots of people purchased a 2017 Malad Classic Car Show souvenir t-shirt to add to their collection! The Poker Run was held in the early afternoon, with cars leaving their spots and returning about an hour later. Summer fun just got a whole lot more fun with the new additions to the LeGrande Aqua Plunge. The county-owned pool received a new climbing rock wall and zip line to add to the swimming enjoyment of the older kids and adults through a grant from the Idaho Communities Foundation. Initially, the swimming pool board was looking at just replacing the old slide but decided that something that would include older kids would be more practical, and that has proven to be true. Kami Willie reports that the new play equipment has been a great attraction for teens. Students who worked hard to earn a Perfect Attendance Award for this past school year at Malad Middle School were Alex White, Journey Tovey, Bailey Sweat, Porter Kimberling, Bridger deJong, Raegan Smith, Hunter Olsen, Will Hess, Chloe Mills, Kristal Ford, Sam Pickett, Allisa Webecke and Nevaeh Driskel. Students at Malad Elementary can earn the Citizenship Award just one in their elementary careers. this year's recipients of the Citizenship Award were Brooks Blaisdell, Zander Giles, Braylee Price, Jenna Talbot, Carter Smith, Cali Sorensen, Jaxon Mills, Kallee Talbot, Tenlee Sweeten, Sadie Hooste, Carter Blaisdell, Adley Kimberling, Brynlee Bastian, Porter Allen, McKenzie Leckie, Cora Asay, Nicole Moss, Bronson Smith and Kyler Ekstrom. 10 YEARS AGO (2012) Dan Hildreth lives in a home that is pretty special to him. That is because it is the home of his mother and father, which they moved from their farm in the Daniels/ St. John area to Malad in approximately 1930. With the help of his sister and brother-in-law, Di-

ane and Farrell Atkinson, they helped Dan plant about 100 petunias in his yard. Dan’s wishing well is a landmark on Bannock Street. Beautiful wild yellow rose bushes, originally planted by his parents, grow profusely on the west and back of his home. Dan’s home received the May Yard of the Month. The Malad District Cub Scout Bicycle Rodeo was held May 19 at the Malad High School. Wolves, Bears, and Webelos, 18 boys in all, learned and practiced bicycle safety. Participants in this year’s event were J.J. Thomas, Dameon Tiller, Daniel Talbot, Davis Larsen, Addler Tubbs, Ashton Parker, Lance Zabriskie, Ben Ward, Riley Cluff, Trevor Mills, Hayden Schwartz, Kyle Mills, J.D. Atkinson, Tayson Davis, Daniel J. Williams, Bridger Bastian, Cole Williams and Gage Shelman. Kathie Tubbs was chairman of the event and Mary Lynn Spahr handled registration and records. 15 YEARS AGO (2007) Summer school started at Malad Elementary Monday, but not at the high school. MHS Vice Principal Terri Sorensen laments that there will be no secondary summer school this year, something she feels bad about because it benefits certain students who need the program. The shutdown is a result of too few students registering for the school to qualify for state funding. Steve Coakley was named the Faculty of the Month at Malad High School for May. Coakley has been working with the students at Malad High School for the past two years as the Facilitator for the Electronics and Calculus classes. The four girls that will represent the American Legion Auxiliary at the 2007 Idaho Syringa Girls’ State have been selected. They are Erin Morley, Kiersten Cordingly, Daniele Williams and Ashlee Blaisdell. They will attend the weeklong event June 10 – 16 at Northwest Nazarene University in Nampa. The Grizzly Canyon Rendezvous set up camp at Malad Elementary to give the students a taste of what life was like in Idaho. This year after lunch, the annual shootout was held under the direction of Brian Jeppsen. Then, a family of Native Americans from Fort Hall presented a program for the students. They showed the students traditional Native American dances and talked about what life for the Native Americans was like.

FAIR BOARD MEETING | JUNE 2
The Fair Board met for one of its last meetings before the summer season officially kicks off. Trevor Allen Eagle Scout Project Trevor Allen spoke to the Fair Board via phone about his Eagle Scout project, which involves new gates between the ticket booths at the entrance of the grounds. In the past, the fair has used planks as a functional gate, but this improvement will create a more attractive set of gates complete with archways, for under $800. The gates will be tall enough for trucks and trailers to pass under. The project should be completed by June 31. A motion to support the project and fund the materials was approved. Daniels Classic Jackpot July 29 and 30, the Daniels Classic will be held. The administrators approached the board about donating to the event. Last year, there were 100 sheep, 25 beef and steers. The Board has donated $300 in the past. A motion to donate to the Jackpot was approved. Malad Rodeo District 9 The board was approached about a 50/50 Raffle Drawing for the Malad Rodeo, in conjunction with District 9. The rodeo representatives were asking permission to hold a raffle that provides money for
scholarships and money for kids who make it to nationals. District 9 asked permission to do the raffle during Thursday and Friday night of the rodeo. The board unanimously approved a motion to approve the raffle. Groundskeeper Some questions were raised about what kind of facilities will need to be prepped for the fair. A discussion followed about potentially blocking off the road near the cattle scales. It was ultimately determined that it was not possible to block off a potential emergency vehicle route, but the temporary barriers might be usable which could easily be moved. Above and Beyond Award A plaque that hangs in the events center celebrates the contributions of people who have had a large impact on the Fair, Rodeo, and 4-H over the years. The commemorative award is presented during the Livestock sale. The board is currently considering finalists for this year. Bounce Houses A vendor interested in inflatable carnival mazes, games, bouncy houses, etc. has expressed interest in returning to the Fair this year. The vendor requires no upfront cost, but will split proceeds with the venue after the fair. The vendor
charges $17 an hour or $20 a day. Due to the power requirements of the various elements of the bouncy house items. The discussion turned to a general discussion of options for increasing power to the fair. Motion to approve allowing bouncy house company to set up at fair was approved. Concession Stand Bids A number of concession vendors submitted bids for the Fair week. Kristy Eliason was awarded the bid for the Fair, Cassie Johnson was awarded the bid for the Horse Races, and the American Legion was awarded the contract for the Beer Booth. In each case, the vendor agreed to a 60/40 split. A motion to accept all three bids was approved. Event Center Grant A pending grant for beautification and landscaping of the Event Center was discussed. The grant, which is for $5,000, was determined to be insufficient to create a new watering system for vegetation in front of the entrance, but was approved to add furniture and other materials to begin the landscaping of the frontage of the event center in time for the Fair season. Arena Project The board planned to maintain a table to raffle fundraising items at the car show on Saturday. A number of items, includ-

The Fair Board will meet with the County Commissioners at their second monthly meeting in June, on the 27th as part of this year’s upcoming budget discussions. Bid for Lighting in the Parking Lot Sawyer Fonnesbeck has received a bid for the lighting in the Event Center parking lot. A number of factors will determine the extent of the project. The board decided to discuss the issue further with the County Commission on the 27th.
Gas prices continue to rise As of press time, gas prices in Malad hovered just below $5/gallon. Fuel prices have been increasing almost every day over the last week, and are expected to rise even further as the summer driving season fully sets in. 10 states are expected to have per gallon prices above $5 by the end of the week, with California having the highest average prices in the mainland U.S. at over $6.60.
Lost child found safe in northwest Montana 4 year old Ryker Webb was located two days after going missing near his home in far northwestern Montana. Ryker had apparently wandered off and become lost, but managed to stay in reasonably good condition until he was finally spotted about two and a half miles from where he was last seen.
Governor Little Name June “School Board Appreciation Month” In recognition of the work the over 800 volunteer school board members across the state continually provide to their communities, Idaho Governor Brad Little designated this month as School Board Appreciation month. In praise of those volunteers, Little stated that “a good system of public schools is out moral obligation.” Idaho currently has around 300,000 public school students overseen by local school boards.
ISU Assistant Football Coach charged with murder Assistant Coach Davonte Neal was arrested last week on murder charges, after a warrant was issued in Maricopa County, Arizona. Although details are still forthcoming, the arrest is linked to a drive-by shooting from 2017, in which Neal has been implicated. Neal had passed a background check before being hired, and has since been terminated by the university.

This is our 2021 annual report on the quality of your drinking water. This is to let our customers know where their water comes from, what it contains and how it compares to Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) and state standards. Some people may be more vulnerable to contaminants in drinking water than the general population. Immuno-compromised persons such as persons with cancer undergoing chemotherapy, persons who have undergone organ transplants, people with HIV/AIDS or other immune system disorders, some elderly, and infants can be particularly at risk from infections. These people should seek advice about drinking water from their health care providers. EPA/CDC guidelines on appropriate means to lessen the risk of infection by Cryptosporidium and other microbial contaminants are available from the Safe Drinking Water Hotline (800426-4791) or http://www.epa.gov/safewater/hotline/. Currently, all our water comes from well #1& #4. We have two backup wells which only run-in cases of emergency. The City of Malad Water System routinely monitors monthly for drinking water contaminants. There were no violations. Along with the monthly monitoring, Malad tested the System for disinfection byproducts, synthetic organic chemicals and volatile organic chemicals. None were detected. The state has completed a level II assessment of our source water. A copy of the report is available at the City Office. Our City Council meets on the second Wednesday of every month. Please feel free to participate in these meetings. General Drinking Water Information Drinking water, including bottled water, may reasonably be expected to contain at least small amounts of some contaminants. The presence of contaminants does not necessarily indicate that water poses a health risk. More information about contaminants and potential health effects can be obtained by calling the EPA’s Safe Drinking Water Hotline (800-426-4791) or http:// www.epa.gov/safewater/hotline/. Contaminants that may be present in water source include: Microbial contaminants, such as viruses and bacteria, which may come from sewage treatment plants, septic systems, agricultural livestock operations and wildlife. Inorganic contaminants, such as salts and metals, can
be naturally occurring or result from urban storm water runoff, industrial or domestic wastewater discharges, oil and gas production, mining or farming. Pesticides and herbicides may come from a variety of sources such as agriculture and residential uses. Radioactive contaminants, which can be naturally occurring or be the result of oil and gas production and mining activities. Organic chemical contaminants, including synthetic and volatile organic chemicals, which are by-products of industrial processes and petroleum production, and can also come from gas stations, urban storm water runoff, and septic systems. In order to ensure that tap water is safe to drink, EPA prescribes regulations which limit the number of certain contaminants in water provided by public water systems. Food and Drug Administration regulations establish limits for contaminants in bottled water which must provide the same protection for public health. Lead Informational Statement (Health effects and ways to reduce exposure) If present, elevated levels of lead can cause serious health problems, especially for pregnant women and young children. Lead in drinking water is primarily from materials and components associated with service lines and home plumbing. The City of Malad is responsible for providing high quality drinking water but cannot control the variety of materials used in plumbing components. When your water has been sitting for several hours, you can minimize the potential for lead exposure by flushing your tap for 30 seconds to 2 minutes before using water for drinking or cooking. If you are concerned about lead in your drinking water, you may wish to have your water tested. Information on lead in drinking water, testing methods, and steps you can take to minimize exposure is available form the Safe Drinking Water Hotline or at http://www.epa. gov/safewater/lead. This report will not be mailed to consumers but is available on request by contacting Tyler Webster at 766-4160. Below is a chart listing the most recent contaminants and the date the contaminants were detected in our water. Water Quality Data Terms and abbreviations used below: C Maximum Contaminant Level Goal (MCLG): the level of a contaminant in drinking water below which there is no known or expected health risk. MCLGs allow for a margin of safety. C Maximum Contaminant Level (MCL): the highest level of a contaminant that is allowed in drinking water. MCLs are set as close to MCLGs as
The public is invited to attend said hearing and present written or oral testimony for or against the proposed changes. Written comments must be submitted to the Oneida county Planning and Zoning Administrator, 30 North 100 West suite 2, Malad City, Idaho 83252, before said hearing.

Grandparents Only Not recommended for parents or kids! By Dotty Thorpe Evanson Burger King Saturday is now a tradition. Tam, Grandma Red and I motor up to Burger King and get our breakfast about 8:00 a.m. on most Saturdays. We say hello to the other Saturday morning regulars, visit for a while and then go for a drive around the valley checking out whatever is new or old
or whatever suits us. It never fails to put me in a good mood. Got home last Saturday morning and asked Hadley to sign some artwork she had done for family members. She had painted some beautiful pictures the day before but hadn’t signed her work. She wasn’t all that excited about getting the paints out again to autograph the pictures. After she finished,
she had a little paint on her favorite shirt and that didn’t improve her mood at all. She was, to say the least, a little testy. In the meantime, Elle had run across the street and brought Noah over. Noah is four and a favorite around our house. Elle and Noah were riding their bikes outside having a great time. I was still humming around the kitchen in a
sunny mood, while Hadley was finding it hard to find her happies. We had all tried to influence her attitude, but to no avail. After lunch next-doorneighbor Lineni came over and within half an hour had Hadley back to her happy self. Take time today for friends. It will be medicine for your mood and for your friend’s mood, too. Enjoy the good life and enjoy it with a friend.
LETTER TO THE EDITOR
Memorial Day Thanks Dear Editor,
I wanted to take this opportunity to thank all those who are responsible for the care and maintenance of our cemeteries around the valley. After being away from
Malad for several decades, we have returned and on Memorial Day we visited family graves at the Malad Cemetery, the Samaria Cemetery and the St. John Cemetery. All were beautiful and made the visit that
much more meaningful. I'm sure the rainy weather on the weekend helped in the effort to keep the cemeteries and their surroundings looking green and beautiful, but the trimming and care by those responsi-
ble made me glad to be back in the valley where I grew hope. Thanks to all of you. Lamonte John
THANK YOU Dear Editor, Malad City would like to publicly thank the Malad Fifth Ward Elders Quorum of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, led by President Troy Allen, for replacing the horseshoe pits at the Malad City Park. When they were planning a get-together at the City Park and wanted to play horseshoes, they
were told the pits had been removed for the splash pad. A grant was received from the Ifft Foundation to replace the pits; and the Malad City Crew had it on their long list of things to do for the summer, but Troy and his quorum offered to do the work. Thank you so much. You are all such a great example of selfless service! Mayor Joan Hawkins

Community Garden off to great season! In its fourth year, the Malad City Community garden is already in fine shape for the summer, with tomatoes, broccoli, and other vegetables enjoying the recent rains. Starting with a grant from Blue Cross and the help of an Eagle Scout project to build the
planter boxes, the garden has been a welcome and nutritious source of fresh, organically grown produce in the city for four years running. Mayor Joan Hawkins and Harold Carey are some of the many volunteers who help to water, weed, and maintain the
project, located to the southside of the City Park. “It’s been a great thing,” Mayor Hawkins said, while planting new tomato plants. “It’s a thing that’s here for whoever wants to come by and get something fresh to eat!”
Cross Country Summer Training It may be summer break, but the MHS athletes on the cross country team are already looking ahead to fall running and using these summer months to gear up and train for the upcoming season. While running over the summer sets the cross country team up for greater success in the fall, this training isn’t meant to be overly intense or grueling. The goal of their off season running is to help keep in running shape, keep their team unity strong and keep running fun. Over the next few months, the cross country runners are encouraged to put “miles in the bank” that they can draw on when it really matters. The miles they accrue now are important to help build better running endurance, strength and confidence for when the racing season begins. As a part of their summer training, Coach Tia Talbot has begun the 100 Mile Challenge, motivating her athletes to tally up hundreds of miles of running from June first until their first fall practice. Running over the summer is meant to build the athletes, both physically and mentally, so they are prepared to push themselves when the season officially begins. Slow, steady miles might not seem to build speed, but
it will be the foundation the runners need. Summer runs also help bring the fun back to running when competition isn’t the sole priority. In addition to their summer training, members of the team also plan to participate in running events over the summer. First up on June 25, will be the To Bone and Back Relay Race where runners begin in Idaho Falls, follow the course to Bone and return again to Idaho Falls. The race is run by teams consisting of eight athletes that will each run five miles. Members of the cross country team will have the opportunity to participate in the Utah State Running Camp July 11-14. There they will learn from Utah State University cross country coaches, participate in a trail run and a race at the USU cross country course, learn about the physical and mental aspects of distance running and participate in nightly camp activities. The MHS cross country team had an exceptional fall season last year as the girls team took third place in the state cross country meet as well as several racers from the boys team competing at the state level, and they look forward to an ever better season this fall.

THANK YOU The Oneida County Fire District along with the Oneida County Volunteer Fire Department would like to send a BIG thank you to the Idaho State Legislators, our brotherhood of firefighters, and the public for their financial support. Every time someone purchases a Fire Fighter License Plate, the additional fees go back into the local communities in the form of C Y
M K
grant monies. Oneida County Fire District was awarded some of this money in 2021 for help with the purchase of Fire Prevention Handouts. These items are given to our local elementary school children every October. It is such a joy to be able to serve our community and be able to provide educational materials to our local youth!
Talbot spoke of how getting those summer miles in is important for runners, saying “If you want to be competitive in the fall, you have to start in the summer.” The summer months offer more opportunities for all runners to get out and enjoy hitting the pavement. With longer daylight hours, better weather and more open trails, summer is the perfect time to pick up running. Running helps improve cardiovascular fitness, mental health, build stronger muscles and bones, decrease fatigue and even boost sleep. Running has also been found to improve immunity, cognitive function, glucose regulation and gut health. Runners looking to add a little bit of competition to their summer can find many events to participate in, including Malad’s 4th of July Fun Run, Logan’s Shoreline 10K/5K (June 18), the Blackfoot Kicker Triathlon at Jensen Grove (June 25), the Jurassic Run held at Ogden’s Dinosaur Park (June 25), the Cache Valley Super Sprint Triathlon (July 11), or the HandCart Days Half Marathon race in Bountiful, Utah consisting of a Half Marathon and 1K and 5K (July 23).

COUNTY PLANNING AND ZONING MEETING | JUNE 1 The Oneida County Planning and Zoning Commission met on Wednesday June 1. Building Permits In May, there were 11 permits requested: 4 agricultural permits, 5 residential permits, and 2 manufactured structure permits. Permits were accepted by the Planning and Zoning Commission. Minor Subdivision application—Kyle Phillips Mr. Phillips approached P&Z in a follow up to a request for lot division last month. According the P&Z, the existing approach needs to be moved to the north or south, but needs and kept to a single entrance. This will allow the property to be divided into two lots. A primary concerned raised during the discussion was the designation of the facing road into Samaria as a Major Collector, which limits the number of access roads that can be made into the property. New regulations in the county development code require asphalt approaches to connect to major roadways, though there is an exemption for approaches which existed before the new code went into effect. A motion to accept the minor subdivision was approved. A longer discussion about
some of the elements of the new countywide development code was also had. Phase 2 Cherry Creek—Billy Porter As Phase 1 of construction has not fully started yet, PZ was not sure they were in a position to examine the next phase until significant progress had been made. The first eight lots, constituting Phase 1, have been bonded. PZ decided to look further into it, before determining anything about the next phase of construction. Variance Request— Boyd Goodnight Boyd Goodnight addressed PZ about a property in Woodruff off Exit 3 across the river. Goodnight requested a variance to allow him to build a home on a half acre. The county building code requires an acre for a residence. Goodnight would like to place a manufactured home on the existing footprint of a former residence. Goodnight is in the process of purchasing land adjoining the half-acre, which will eventually meet the land requirement. PZ requested time to examine the ownership history of the plot of land in order to determine whether a variance was supported by the prior deeds in the case. PZ worried about
setting a precedent by granting a variance for a half acre lot. PZ moved to deny the variance until Goodnight is able to purchase the adjoining half acre. Ben Naylor An original plot of land totaling 40 acres had 5 acres broken off in 2014. In order to divide the land into more plots and allow access from the main road, an internal road will be required, which will enter the development into a major subdivision classification. A major subdivision will require a full permitting and application process. Review of Fees for Subdivision The County Commission has requested a review of the fees which are levied for subdivisions. Planning and Zoning Administrator Rhonda Neal compared the fee schedules from surrounding counties as a basis for comparison. Based on an 18 lot subdivision, a proposal to set the fees at $500 subdivision/plus $100 per lot, for a total of $2300 total fees on an 18 unit subdivision. Eric Crowther will be leaving the Commission after serving two terms. Two new members will be appointed during next week’s Board of County Commissioners Meeting.
