Wendell School District Bond Election Earlier this year, voters in Wendell failed to pass a $3.1 million bond for the Wendell School District. A majority of the voters were in favor of the bond, but bond elections require a two third majority to pass. Next month, August 26th, the residents of Wen-dell will have an opportuni-ty to vote on a revised bond proposal. Based on recom-

mendations from a Citi-zens’ Committee, the new bond election will include two separate questions. First, voters will be asked to approve a 10-year Plant Facility Levy of $250,000 per year. The Wendell School District has never had a facility levy specifi-cally designated for building maintenance, furnishings and equipment. According

to the Citizens’ Commit-tee, if such a levy had been in force over the past three decades, today’s damaged conditions could have been avoided. The second question is for approval of a 20-year, low-interest, $1.5 million bond to correct the effects of deterioration over the past 20 to 38 years. If ap-proved, this bond will be used to repair the gymna-sium roof system and the gymnasium heating and air conditioning systems. The bond will also be used to re-surface the high school roof and the student parking

Budgeting Your Tax

Money Lincoln County Com-missioners (as well as other commissioners and city councils) are currently working through the an-nual budgeting process. Each year, government agencies from the state level down to the smallest cem-etery board, must prepare a budget and give citizens the opportunity to comment and/or object. While the deadlines to do this very from agency to agency, the procedures are generally the same: work-shops to consider budget requests from departments; more workshops to balance the numbers; posting notice and holding a public hear-ing for a proposed budget;

The War Memorial Hall in Gooding is in serious need of re-roofing. The VFW Post 3078 currently has about $5000 for this project, but they need an-other $17,000 to complete the project. Besides being the meet-ing place for the VFW, the American Legion Post 30, and the Legion Auxiliary, the Hall is used by the com-munity for blood drawings, exercise classes, a place to vote, as well as other special

community events. The Hall is also a stor-age place for Memorial Day crosses and flags; various types of handicap items like walkers, wheelchairs, etc.; and financial and historical records associated with the Veteran organizations. The VFW Post 3078 is a 501 C-19 non-profit orga-nization, and as such, any and all donations are tax deductable. If you can make a dona-tion, please make checks

payable to: VFW Post 3078 with a memo line of “Re-roofing Project” and mail to: Donald K. Lar-son, Hall Finance Officer, 1105 California Street, Gooding, ID 83330 (Phone 934-4887). A re-ceipt will be provided to you. This is a project they would like to complete before the winter weather arrives. So, any monetary support you or your busi-ness or your employees can give will be greatly appreciated.

Carole A. Fender, 80, of Jerome died peacefully in her home on June 2, 2014, followed only nine days later on June 11, 2014, by her husband, Fred Earl Fender, 79, who was a resident of Shoshone Care Center. The couple had been married for 62 years and is now once again together. Fred worked for the US Postal Service for 30 years. He was an avid hunter and fisherman and along with Carole enjoyed bowling on a number of leagues. Both were very familiar faces at High School rodeos from 1968 - 2008 as they supported daughters, granddaughters and volunteered their time for many years. Fred and Carole also volunteered as Camp hosts at Mackay Reservoir, and were honored by the BLM for 15 years of service. They are survived by five daughters: Diane (Larry) Strol-berg, Derry (Glenn) Smith, Denise (Terry Ford) Morrison, Shellie (John) Georgio and Sharleen (Travis Zeller) Berlin; seven grandchildren; 11 great-grandchildren and one great-great grandchild. Graveside memorial services will be held at 3 p.m. on Fri-day, July 25, 2014, at the Bellevue Cemetery in Bellevue, Idaho. Family and friends are invited to a potluck following the services at the Shoshone City Park (North Rail Street in Shoshone) at 4:30 p.m. Fred and Carole’s family suggests that in lieu of flowers, memorials be made in their names to: Lincoln County Care Center, Resident Fun ~ 511 4th St. East ~ Shoshone, Idaho 83352. Arrangements are under the care of Farnsworth Mortu-ary of Jerome.

Carol Toles Carol’s place of residence and death was in Watford City, ND. Carol was born in Silver City, KS on October 26, 1946 to George and Betty McLaughlin. Carol was the second oldest sibling of seven children; which included her two brothers, George and Ike and four sisters, Donna,

Ruth, Virginia and Joy. Carol and her five children, Frank, Brenda, Larry , Steve and Elizabeth were united with Alva Toles in marriage on January 3, 1974 and soon after brought into this world three more daughters, Teresca, Rosie, Corie. Carol spent her life raising her children and many of the neighbor kids. She never turned

away a hungry mouth or a family in need. She worked for the Senior Citizens Center as a driver, and made many friends taking people back and forth to appointments or the grocery store. She also did the Meals on Wheels Pro-gram and loved to take the food to different people, talk-ing with them for hours and put a smile on everyone’s face she came in contact with. Carol spent hours in her garden and loved to sit on her back porch and watch the world go by as she feed all the little animals that roamed into her yard. One of Carols favorite past times was to watch “new” episodes of her classic TV shows. She would sit on the edge of the couch and clap her hands as her shows came on over and over again never getting old for her. Carol brought life and joy to all people she met; always looking on the positive side and never looking at peoples faults, but to the good in them. Carol is survived by her husband of 40 years Alva Toles of Watford City; children, Frank Shoup and his wife Ra-nae of Twin Falls, ID, Larry Shoup and his wife Jennifer of Port Saint Lucie, FL, Steven Shoup and his wife Lorrie of Twin Falls, ID , Brenda Shoup of Watford City, Elizabeth Robinson (Shoup) and her husband Ronnie of Pahrump, NV, Teresca Zimmiond (Toles) and her husband Aaron of Sturgis, SD, Rosie Murray (Toles) of Billings, MT, and Corinna Toles of Thompson, ND; thirty four grandchil-dren, fifty two great grandchildren, numerous nephews and nieces; two brothers and four sisters. Carol is predeceased in death by her parents, two chil-dren, Ginger Ann and Jonny Ray, and one great grand-child, Jackson.

Funeral Services will be held at 11 a.m. on Monday, July 21, 2014, in the Watford City High School Media Center for Betty Carol McLaughlin Toles who was received by the Lord on July 14, 2014 at the age of 67. Pastor Mark Honstein will officiate. Graveside services will be held in the Elmwood Cem-etery in Gooding, ID at 3 p.m. on Friday, July 25, 2014. Local arrangements are under the care and direction of Demaray Funeral Service. Condolences and memories may be shared at demarayfuneralservice.com.

and approving a budget. Most of us pay little or no attention to this process - the numbers are too big or too difficult to understand. What does catch our attention is when a particular department or program has part of its budget cut, or if there is a sig-nificant increase in spending. Over the last couple of years the biggest challenge (at least at the local level) has been how to cut spending. Rev-enues have been static or down for most localities while certain cost have increased. Case in point... healthcare. Some budget items are easier to cut than others be-cause the amounts are only potential or discretionary spending. Other items like maintenance and emergency funds often include amounts you hope you never spend, but these things need to be in the budget. The real cuts (and the ones that cause the most heartburn) involve salaries and benefits. Salaries are very hard to cut. Most of the time employ-ees are asked to forego an increase in wages rather than an actual cut in pay. Benefits, however, can be cut in ways that preserve the benefits and dramatically decrease costs. This can be done by eliminating certain coverages such as eye and dental, but increasing deductibles can be more impactful. Government agencies generally have the best health-care benefits - great plans and deductibles as low as $100. In fact, healthcare benefits like this are often more

important to an employee than an increase in wages. Un-fortunately, providing this level of benefit is expensive (especially with recent changes in healthcare laws), and when private individuals have to live with deductibles of $2000 to $3000, this can seem overly gratuitous. At one of their recent budget workshops, the Lin-coln County Commissioners were looking at how much money the county would save by increasing healthcare deductibles. Obviously, the higher the deductible, the higher the savings, yet they want to be fair to their em-ployees. The Commissioners are considering a number of other budget cuts, but potential cuts in benefits are the ones you will most likely hear about as they get ready for the budget hearing next month.

Last week was the annual Curise Night started by Roe-Ann Drive-In in Emmett, Idaho.

Other than the showing of classic cars there are many 50’s to 60’s type dances and competitions. Every year except this year (because of other commitments) I always went the extra mile to dress and compete in the events. The temperature is al-ways around 100 degrees. In spite of the heat I began to win some of the events. A few years ago I was told I couldn’t win the prize because I had won the year before. That made me a little irritated. I told them, “I dress in the 100 degree heat in leathers and I’m here to win. I won’t lose by lack of trying, but by competition instead. Bring on the competition! Let them go to the extremes like I have. I can lose if they beat me, not because I’m a winner.” A person is automatically a winner to just go through the process and show up. Apparently they have forgotten a few minor foundation. When I did demolition car derbies no one would compete be-cause Darrell (one of the continual winners) never was beat. The perspective drivers would not enter because of fear of loss. I en-tered because I wanted to play and I wasn’t afraid to try. Darrell would completely rewire his car, adding extra batteries and relays so his cars couldn’t be stopped in a STOCK competition. I told people I would beat him at his own game without cheating. I now have a wall full of trophies to prove that. Anyone in my shop knew my cars were stock as stock could be. In fact, half of the time I painted my cars on the track prior to running. My brother, my cousin, other members of my shop, and even newcomers got trophies to prove they could win by compe-tition and not by cheating. I wouldn’t allow cheating. My cousin became a top contender at Homedale, Idaho, where only hometown players were allowed to win. He won year after year and beat the hometown boys because he took the challenge to try (and win). I entered many demolition derbies throughout Eastern Idaho and was invited to many out-of-state events be-cause I wouldn’t accept, “You can’t play because we are the win-ners here.” I took the challenge to win. Years ago, at my work place where I use to deliver lumber, I was told to just put the lumber on the ground and go. I usually spread it around to make it easier for framers and builders. I told work I wouldn’t compromise doing a good job just because they weren’t. In addition, I would not train new employees to do a half job, which went against my work ethics. In the lumber business we had 17 other lumber yards in the Treasure Valley that would be in my place if I didn’t do a good job. So in short, I would be losing by not trying. Not only would I lose, but my whole company as well. Throughout the years many contractors stayed with the lumberyard because I took the chal-lenge of, “Beat me at what I do, NOT, Beat me because I didn’t try!” I have never heard of anyone stumbling by sitting down. This is steeping yet another “Cup of Tee.”

Idaho Fish & Game News

Fall Chinook Seasons Set Idaho Fish and Game Commission has adopted fall Chi-nook salmon fishing seasons on parts of the Snake, Clear-water and Salmon rivers. The action was taken at the Com-mission’s meeting in Salmon on Thursday July 10. The 2013 return of fall Chinook was surprisingly large, and this year’s run is again expected to be one of the largest in recent history. The forecast return including hatchery and natural fall Chinook to the Snake River basin is more than 57,000 fish. The Snake River, from the Washington-Idaho border upstream to Cliff Mountain Rapids, a little less than a mile downstream of Hells Canyon Dam, will be open from Sep-tember 1 until further notice or October 31. The Clearwa-ter River, from its mouth upstream to Memorial Bridge; and the Salmon River, from its mouth upstream about three-fourths of a mile to Eye of the Needle Rapids, will also be open from September 1 until further notice or Octo-ber 31, whichever comes first. The Snake River, from Cliff Mountain Rapids to Hells Canyon Dam, will be open from September 1 until further notice or November 17. A valid fishing license and salmon permit are required to fish for fall Chinook. Only adipose-clipped salmon may be kept. Only adult fall Chinook must be recorded on the angler’s salmon permit. The daily bag limit is six adult fall Chinook salmon, the possession limit is 18 adult fall Chi-nook. Adult Chinook are 24 inches and longer. There is no season limit on adult fall Chinook. There are no daily, possession or season limits on fall Chinook jacks (those less than 24 inches). Anglers are not required to record fall Chi-nook jacks on their permits.

Crane & Mourning Dove Seasons Idaho bird hunters will get an expanded mourning dove season but fewer sandhill crane tags this year. On Thursday July 10 the Idaho Fish and Game Com-mission approved the earliest and most liberal mourning dove season allowed. The dove season will last 60 days, from September 1 through October 30. The daily bag limit will be 15 birds and the possession limit will be 45. The sandhill crane season will be open from September 1 through 15 in hunt areas 1 through 5. The Pacific Flyway Council has allocated Idaho 120 cranes for harvest in the 2014 season. This is the second consecutive year Idaho’s allocation has been reduced and is the lowest since the hunt began in 1996. This is due to a decline in the most recent three-year average of cranes counted during the annual September survey.

Late Night Registration at CSI CSI’s Taylor/Student Union buildings will be open until 10 p.m. on Thursday, July 31st, with academic and technical program advisors, career counseling, and financial aid assistance. The bookstore and test-ing center will also be open. Free food will be avail-able. For students who have kids, free bounce houses and supervised activities will be available in order to allow mom and dad to focus on finding answers to questions and getting registered. Students are encouraged to register as soon as pos-sible for the fall semester, which begins August 25th. Students are advised that the deadline for registration is earlier than it’s been in the past – 11:59 p.m. Sun-day, Aug. 24. For more information, call 733-9554.

To meet the allocation, Fish and Game reduced the number of tags available, eliminated the Bonneville Coun-ty hunt (where there were only five tags available in 2013) and reduced the season limit from four to two birds. The daily bag limit is also two birds. The hunt is designed to provide focused depredation relief to farmers at a time expected to provide the most benefit. Since 2009, when sandhill crane tags were made avail-able on a first-come first-served basis, the harvest per tag purchased has averaged 48 percent. To stay at or below the Pacific Flyway harvest allocation of 120 cranes, Fish and Game proposes to reduce tags to a maximum of 240. Crane tags go on sale August 1 at 10 a.m. Mountain Daylight Time, and will be sold on a first-come-first-served basis. Tags will cost $15. A season and rules brochure will be available at regional offices and on Fish and Game’s website by the end of July.

Bighorn Tags for Auction & Lottery The Idaho Fish and Game Commission, during their July 10 meeting, released two bighorn sheep tags for the 2015 season, one for a lottery and one to be auctioned. The lottery tag was awarded to the Idaho Wild Sheep Foundation and the auction tag was awarded to the Wild Sheep Foundation. The two groups will market the tags as fund raisers, with the proceeds going to benefit big-horn sheep research and habitat.

area. These four projects are major needs with each estimated to cost between $300,000 and $400,000. While the levy and the bond are two separate ques-tions, each of them is de-pendent upon the other to be fully effective. Approv-ing one, and not the other, will only partly address the needs and leave increased expense and further wear and tear to the future. The Wendell Commu-nity has already invested over $30 million in school district buildings, an in-vestment that needs to be protected. The impact on prop-erty tax is expected to be about $1.27/week or about $65.67/year based on a $100K primary home. More information can be found at www.wen-dellschools.org, by calling the district office at 536-2418, or by planning to attend one of the informa-tion meetings planned for August.
