The Wendell School District is hoping that the “third time is a charm” in their effort to pass a bond election. Although their last try was just two months ago, supporters are encouraged that as more people become aware of the needs of the school district, more people are voting in favor of the bond proposal. The high school building, and in particular the gym-nasium, are in need of ma-jor repair. The biggest con-cern is leaking roofs that are causing interior damage. While some of that dam-age is cosmetic, if left un-checked, it will cause long term structural problems. There are two questions on the November Ballot for residents of School District 232: a ten year plant fa-

cilities levy in the amount of $250,000 per year; and General Obligation Bond in the amount of $1.5 mil-lion. The estimated cost to taxpayers is a property tax increase of $65.67 for a $100k primary home. As a reminder, the “Cir-cuit Breaker” or “Property Tax Reduction” program may qualify some senior citizens, widow(er)s, or-phaned children, disabled individuals, and certain vet-erans, for exemption from property taxes.

Solar Eclipse ~ Thursday Afternoon The Herrett Center’s Centennial Observatory will be open, free of charge, for safe viewing of the sun during the partial solar eclipse the afternoon of Thursday, Oct. 23. Doors will open at 2:30 and the eclipse will begin at 2:58 p.m. The eclipse will reach its maximum point at 4:20 p.m. when 49-per-cent of the sun’s surface will be covered by the moon. The event will be over at 5:35 p.m. The Herrett Center strongly cautions everyone wanting to see the eclipse – whether at the observatory or some-where else - to not look directly at the sun as eye damage can occur even with brief glimpses. The Herrett Center is currently selling inexpensive but effective eclipse glasses for $2 a pair that allow wearers to look at the sun and fol-low the progress of the eclipse. Viewing of the eclipse will, of course, depend on the sky being clear enough for the sun to be visible.

Quick-thinking Teacher Saves Student’s Life An enjoyable afternoon at a Camas County Musher Ju-nior High football game on Wednesday, October 15 quick-ly turned scary when a third grade student in the bleachers yelled that his friend, Trevor Tews, was choking. Third Grade teacher, Candice Smith, quickly responded and confirmedthatTrevorwasnotabletobreathe.Then,capi-talizing on Emergency Response trainings through the school, Candice administered the Heimlich maneuver a couple of times, successfully dislodging the candy that prevented Trevor from being able to breathe. In an effort to ensure that our children are provided a safe and secure school environment, the Camas County School offers various trainings on emergency medical procedures. Over the years, local EMT, Lisa Knowlton has provided trainings on CPR and the Heimlich maneuver to bus drivers, coaches and teachers. Because of that training and Mrs. Smith’s capable and level-headed application of that training, Thurs-day was a pleasantly normal day at the school with Trevor going about his business as usual. (NOTE: If you would like Emer-gency Medical procedures training for your organization, contact Lisa Knowlton at 208-961-0858.)

Making City Living Affordable With one phase re-maining on the voter approved wastewater (sewer) upgrade proj-ect, the City of Wendell has an opportunity to apply for up to 1.5 million in addi-tional grant funds. If successful, these funds will help the city make monthly waste-water billings affordable. To qualify for these funds a ”Median Household Income Survey” must be completed. This survey has been sent out to random homes within the city, and it is very important that they are returned to the city by the end of October to meet the November grant application deadline. To insure absolute privacy, a locked box is available at City Hall to deposit your completed survey. Once all sur-veys are returned, the locked box will be turned over to Region IV Development and the data will be compiled by them. No one from Wendell City Hall will have access to your personal information.

Each time I went into this particular store I was bugged by a few price labels I saw

in the store. About a week ago I asked the younger store clerk, who had been working quite a while, “So, does the management of said facility think my generation is dumb?” He replied, “Excuse me sir, I don’t understand.” I pointed to a few price labels that were visible from his reg-ister. “See that price over there. It shows $1.00 each or two for $2.00. The one over there says 50¢ each or two for $1.00. The one in the corner says 99¢ each or two for $1.98.” Without hesitation the clerk grabs a calculator and punches some number. “Yes sir. The 99¢ ones are two for $1.98.” Seemingly I was not clear in what I was pointing out. “When you add them together they are the same price. There is no sale price, There is no logic to the displays. Is this a sales gimmick to sell two? Is it a pressure sales trick to double or biggy size? Or is it a generational thing that tells me that the computer age has lost simple math skills?” The clerk replies, “You know, that is kind of crazy that they are the same price when added together or single.” Not resisting the temptation, I quizzed the clerk, “Well, if they are $1.00 each and two for $2.00, what is four going to cost me?” The clerk started again to reach for the calculator, but caught himself. “Four dollars...” was the slow reply. I followed up with, “Yeah, eggs at 12¢ a dozen still makes them a penny a piece regardless if you bought a hundred. I purchased something and as I left the store I said, “Maybe you should have management look into this pricing. It is em-barrassing for me to say my generation needs the price noted in such BIG letters, and really embarrassing to me that your generation (younger clerk) needs the simple notes to calculate. And, I would like to ADD... Have a good day!” On a similar instance I was in a store paying cash for some items totaling around $14 and I gave the clerk a $20 bill. The clerk asked me if I could pay with a credit card because the change display monitor was not functioning. I said with sur-prise, “Are you serious?” Then I said, “No, I will pay with cash. It is still the universal means of payment.” I had to assist the clerk in counting back the change. Am I at the beginning or in the middle of a life style trend? Even in the schools kids are not being taught cursive writing. How do they sign for stuff? With an “X” which use to be a letter on a type-writer that was mistake correction letter??? You Xed out letters. Vehicles since the early 90’s have all these symbols for functions of operation. Three squiggly lines is suppose to mean defrost; a round circle means heat; and a star means air conditioning. Where are the spelled words that we used for a hundred years? Multiple businesses have electronic pads that you sign on. For technology they are so slow you can’t even see your name as you write. I sign backwards so I can see it before it’s done. Oh, well. This is my “Cup of Tee” two for 70¢ or 35¢ each.

Letters to the EditorWrite-in Janet Croner,Camas County Commissioner, District 2

My term as a Camas County Commissioner began in January 2011. Camas County was in the midst of land use lawsuits with legal fees exceeding $500,000.00. While theselawsuitswereblamedforthefinancialstrugglesofALL County funds, this just was not the case. Current Ex-pense, the County’s general fund, was hit hard due to the lawsuits, but other funds such as Road & Bridge did not lose funds due to legal expenses. So let’s talk about the rest of the problem. In July 2011, it was brought to my attention that several fund balances were dropping to a seriously low level. In otherwords,“theCountywasfinanciallyintrouble”.Ilefta meeting with the Clerk Korri Blodgett, Treasurer Gayle Bachtell, and Bob Stephenson, our software consultant, knowing this was serious. After years of discussions on shrinking fund balances the Treasurer Bachtell had fi-nally gotten the attention of a Commissioner. To add to the trauma of less ‘money in the bank’, budget balances were overstated. Meaning, department heads thought they had more dollars to spend then were available in the bank. As we all know, the economy was on a downward spiral, but looking at the income vs. expense, Camas County was still increasing expenses with less revenue. A meeting of the Board of Commissioners was held and it became necessary to make salary cuts and to stop all purchases. Budgets for the next year, 2012, were re-worked with department heads to correctly state fund bal-ances which resulted in cuts in expenses. In 2013, while the County continued their struggles the Board required all employees to fund a portion of their family’s health insurance cost. Budgets were trimmed on special funds such as those for the War Memorial/American Legion Hall. These were tough decisions but necessary measures to balance the budget.

Water rate Increase

In FaIrFIeld

Thursday, October 16, 7:00 PM, Mayor Scott Marolf, convened a “city council” meeting, for a ”WATER/SEWER RATE INCREASE”! (prescribed by state law) All council members present! The criteria was: We need to increase the rates 20+-%, and don’t have enough mon-ey to pay the bills. He next said: other communities are increasing their rates, and we need to also. (poor criteria) A “PROPERTY OWN-

~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~To Lincoln County Voters Please allow this letter to serve as our recommenda-tion of Brenda Farnworth for the position of Lincoln County Clerk. Four years ago, Brenda joined Stur-tevants in the Controller’s chair. She came with the highest praise from MBT, her former employer, as that company changed ownership and relocated out of Idaho. From the start, Brenda proved herself up to any challenges that came her way. Her responsibilities included but were not lim-ited to; accounting, bud-geting, payroll, cashflowmanagement, and ensur-ing full compliance with state and federal protocols and regulations. She also served as an information resource and effective communication hub for our four retail shops, a staff of over 50 coworkers, more than 100 supp|ier—ven-dors, and various govern-ment agencies. Brenda brings a positive and professional attitude to the workday, she anticipates needs and meets deadlines, and has a proven ability to adapt to change. Any com-pany - and Lincoln County - would be fortunate to have her in a key position.

ER” commented that recently an AUDIT was conducted and $47,000.00 +— was un-accounted for, and only a portion of that has

been recovered. Where was it? How did this happen? Marolf’s words: approximately half has been recov-ered. NOTE: council member, Matt Croner (whose wife, Janet Croner, “defeated County Commissioner” was being PAID both as the “City Treasurer” and “County commissioner” - conflictof interest?-hadtheDUTYandRESPONSIBIL-ITY to account for this income) became very defensive and was CURSING and YELLING at the property owner. Nowwithanemployee,(JanetCroner),hiredto“specifi-cally” manage the money, in fact a “special position”, “city treasurer”, was established and paid for to maintain this role in our city, this means that we had 2 city employees being paid to do essentially the same job. This is a village of 292 water/sewer users. (Marolf) NOTE: This is “basic, bone head accounting”. Money in, money deposited, bills paid = monthly balance. The “city council” VOTES to approve the bills, and the report includ-ing income from the users, EVERY MONTH. $47,000.00 +—, unaccounted for until the audit? Marolf again stated some of this has been accounted for, and col-lected, but refused to say “from where”? Is this the TRUTH? He offered no supporting documents. What happened to the previous “annual audits”? Were there any? If not, why not? The current auditor stated that theywouldnolongerauditFairfieldiftheydidn’tgettheir“balance sheet” in order. There was ”NON PAYMENT” of services received going back 9 years. This is either an example of “gross incompetence or mis-management” or outright ”theft” from “YOU”, the people of Fairfield, by the ENTIRE CITYCOUNCIL! It’s theirresponsibility to manage OUR MONEY! Could it be that “SOMEONE’S used these funds for their own personal gain? Now the “city council” wants to INCREASE OUR RATES, and have proven they can’t account for previous monies that we have paid, yet want to increase our burden. YOU CAN BET, NONE OF THE “CITY COUNCIL” HAS MISSED THEIR MONTHLY PAY CHECK! Where is the rest of “OUR MONEY”??? Note:theaforementionedpeopleareall“electedofficials”or holding an elected position!

Re-Boot in Fairfield Idaho Horse Therapy, Inc. hosted their first Re-BootCamp® event earlier this month and saw overwhelming success with a group of 8 veterans. Bythefinalday,noparticipantsreportedless than 40% improvement in their psy-chological well-being, and some reported as much as 70% improvement (taking one to self-described full-recovery). One partici-pant said of the experience, “In one week, I have gotten more relief than 20 years of therapy of the traditional style.” Founder and Executive Director of Idaho Horse Therapy Johnny Urrutia attributes the success to the unique four-modality approach, which incorporated Equine Assisted Psycho-therapy (EAP), Eye-Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR), Community Resil-iency Model (CRM) and Tai Chi. Urrutia elabo-rates, “The EMDR gives them a way to unlearn reactions to their experiences and memories that aren’t useful to them, and relearn new ways for their brain to process them. EAP helps them to process those changes, and gives them a chance to learn metaphorically about what they may be doing that isn’t working in their human relationships. CRM is the educational piece: it helps them to understand what has been going on in their brains and bodies, and gives them a skillset that they can take with them to help anchor them when they return to the ‘regular world’ outside of the calm environment we’ve tried to provide them while they’re with us at Camp. Tai Chi is an in-tegral part of that environment. It gives them a chance to look inside themselves for peace and self-love.” Though Idaho Horse Therapy is based in Shoshone, Idaho, Re-Boot Camp® was held at the Intermountain ChristianCampinFairfield.Urrutiaexplained,“Wearenotreligiouslyaffiliatedinanyway,butitwasabeautiful

facility in a gorgeous setting. They took great care of us and we look forward to working with them again for the next Re-Boot Camp.” Urrutia hopes to have funding in place for another camp by Spring 2015. Thisfirst“pilotprogram”wasfundedentirelybyGlanbiaFoods, Inc.,whocontributed$40,000.00 to thenonprofitattheir annual Charity Challenge in August. Idaho Horse Thera-py Co-Director Karla Davis said, “We can’t overstate the role that Glanbia played in putting this together. We’ve had the dream in place for a long time, but to get the caliber of profes-sionals that we knew we needed and to give these servicemen the experience we believe they deserve, we needed something to put the legs under us. Glanbia’s donation did that.” Davis went on, “If I hadn’t been there to be a part of this experience, I’m not sure I would have believed the dif-ference we can make with this program. The statistics are staggering, and we’ve all heard them: veterans commit

suicide at a rate of nearly one every hour. As many as 30% return from current military engagements with PTSD. It’s a tremendous feeling, not just believing but now knowing that we can do something about it.” Each participant was enthusiastic that they would recommend it to other veterans, one say-ing, “I feel every vet that I know should experi-ence Re-Boot Camp.” The events rely entirely on private fund-ing, and Urrutia hopes to host as many as 15 per year in years to come. “We planned onadozenguysforthefirstone,andafewfell through. But if we had 12-15 each time from here on, and did 15 per year, we could be restoring over 200 lives every year. What

could possibly be worth more than that?” Those interested in contributing to or participating in a Re-Boot Camp® should visit www.idahoREBOOTcamp.com.
