Arbor Day Celebration in Kiwanis Park
To fulfill part of the requirements of the grant that purchased some of the trees, the city held an
Arbor Day Celebration last Friday May 28th in Kiwanis Park. The Mayor read the official Arbor
Day Proclamation. Mr. Barker brought a whole class of high school students to plant the trees.
The weather was gorgeous. Several trees were planted by the class, with the aid of bystanders and
the City employees.

State Freestyle Wrestling Tournament in Bonneville High School.
STATE FREESTYLE WRESTLERS
ADVANCE
There were four boys from the
Grimms USA Wrestling freestyle
team whose families took them to the
state competition in Idaho Falls this
year. These wrestlers included Kent
Brown, Joey Schlett, Bridger LaMoure and Coben Hoch. Kent had a
two tough matches in a row, a fall the
first match and then losing in the last
few seconds by points the second
Bridger LaMoore 2nd and
Coben Hoch 4th.
page 4
ended the season in
fourth place.
Joey, Bridger and Coben
are now eligible to attend
the regional tournament
held in Winnemucca,
Nevada, at the end of
June with the older boys
(mentioned in an earlier
paper) that qualified. All
of these wrestlers now
become part of "Team
Idaho" and get jackets
and singlets with this
insignia. We will be
proud to have them represent the Grimms Wrestling Team in Nevada.
Thanks again to all the
parents and siblings that
helped coach the
Grimms wrestling team this year. It
was a huge group and we couldn't
have done it without all the help.
There were even volunteer coaches
who had no kids on the team. Talk
about dedication!! Volunteer Charles
Pollock was instrumental in helping
to coach them. We appreciated high
school head wrestling coach Craig
Fournier coming in to give the team
a boost I am sure there are others I
haven't mentioned by name, but
please know you have been appreciated. Hopefully we'll see many of the
new and old wrestlers back again
next season!

See your doctor
for a complete
physical. Have
your doctor
help you establish a healthy
eating plan, as well as an exercise plan
that you can do at your current level of
health. Have him set a realistic goal
weight for you, and discuss any other
health concerns that you may have at that
time.
Ok, so now you have a plan in mind for
your physical health; but do you have a
plan in place for emotional support as
well? Do you come home during the day
to find your spouse eating a bag of potato
chips, and your teenage boys noshing on
everything else? Do you constantly hear
the words, “Come on, just one bite won’t
hurt your diet.” If so, then maybe you
need an additional support group. Maybe
you should give TOPS a try!
TOPS (Taking Off Pounds Sensibly) is a
weight loss support group that is made up
of men and women just like you who are
struggling with the same goals, temptations, and yes, victories! TOPS is not a
“diet” group like so many others, but is
different in the fact that you get your diet
plan, and healthy weight goal, from your
doctor.
Most TOPS meetings are held weekly,

Give TOPS a try!
By Patricia Snyder
Weight gain. It happens to the best of us.
We run around trying to juggle our busy
schedules, see to our family’s needs, meet
work deadlines, and often eat on the run.
On the flip side, some of us have too
much time on our hands; giving in to the
“snackies” out of boredom or loneliness.
While some of us simply love food! Over
the years, those pounds slowly crawl on,
until one day we look in the mirror and
think “Good grief! What happened?”
Perhaps you are one of the millions who
have tried to diet and have not succeeded
in reaching your goal. Maybe you have
given up because the effort is simply too
exhausting in the midst of your vendingmachine riddled workplace, unsupportive
friends or family, or even the tempting
aisles of the grocery store. No matter
what your problem area is, one thing is
for sure; you have fallen in with the millions who have forgotten to take the time
to take care of themselves!
So what is the solution? First, make a decision to stop neglecting your health
needs and make a plan of action to do so.
starting with a confidential weigh-in time,
followed by a lesson on different health
issues. If you weigh-in and experience a
“loss”, TOPS members will cheer you on!
If you happen to experience a “gain”, fellow members will offer you encouragement and support in an atmosphere in
which you never have to be embarrassed
or ashamed. TOPS meetings are a time
for you to share your weight loss successes and challenges without feeling uncomfortable. Your fellow members are
there to support you!
TOPS has fun contests, games, state and
local recognition days, and interesting
information; as well as kind and understanding people to meet your weight loss
needs. At TOPS, you will find many new
friends who understand your struggles,
and who are willing to help you through
the rough patches. You may even find a
new exercise buddy! At TOPS meetings,
you will also have the benefit of talking
with KOPS (Keeping Off Pounds Sensibly) members. KOPS are people who
have reached their weight loss goal. They
are a great source of information and additional support, and are always willing to
help you succeed at your own goal.
TOPS members are there for each other
between meetings as well. Cards, calls,
and a reassuring hand of friendship are
extended to you whenever you need them.
We care about you and your health. Give
us a try! Your first visit is free; be our
guest. If you decide to join TOPS, you
will be required to pay a yearly registration fee of $20.00. Each member is required to pay monthly dues of $2.00. New
members get the first month free!
TOPS chapter #307 meets regularly every
Tuesday night in the basement of St.
John’s United Church of Christ located at
350 N. 4th Street in Payette, Idaho.
Weigh-in is from 6:30 pm to 7:00 pm.
Meetings start at 7:00 pm and normally
end at 8:00 pm. Although our meetings
are held in a church, we are not religiously based. All are welcome to come,
regardless of religion, size, shape, weight,
etc.
For more information, feel free to call our
chapter leader: Grace Field at 452-5920.
You are also welcome to just show up at
our Tuesday night meeting, where you
will be welcomed with a friendly smile by
people just like you.
Today is a great day to take that step toward getting a handle on your health
needs; don’t wait until “tomorrow”, or
else your “tomorrow” will turn into next
week, next month, and eventually, next
year. A healthy, fit, happy lifestyle can be
yours; you deserve it!
See you at TOPS!

OTTER DEFENDS ACCESS TO
MEDICARE LAB SERVICES
LAWMAKER PRESSES FOR COST-BASED PAYMENT OF OFF-SITE TESTING
WASHINGTON, D.C. - Congressman C.
L. "Butch" Otter is an original cosponsor
of legislation introduced Thursday to ensure that senior citizens in isolated rural
areas have access to health-care laboratory services without traveling to Medicare-approved hospitals.
The Critical Access to Clinical Lab Services Act revises the Medicare payment
policy so that patients who use rural
health clinics, are homebound or in longterm care facilities need not go to designated "critical access hospitals" to have
laboratory specimens drawn.
When the Critical Access Hospital program was created in 1997, Congress
sought to protect the viability of remote,
rural hospitals - often a community's only
source of vital health-care services - by
establishing cost-based reimbursement for
Medicare inpatient and outpatient services, regardless of where the services are
provided. However, the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS) decided that, effective last Oct. 1, reimbursement for lab services would be
based on a predetermined fee schedule,
rather than actual costs, unless patients
are "physically present in a critical access
hospital" when specimens are collected.
"These federal bureaucrats apparently
decided it's fine for senior citizens in far-
OTTER URGES STUDENTS TO
CONSIDER ACADEMIES
CONGRESSMAN CALLS ON IDAHO YOUTH TO
PREPARE FOR LEADERSHIP OPPORTUNITIES
U.S. Representative C.
L. "Butch"
Otter
First District - Idaho
WASHINGTON, D.C. - Congressman C.L. "Butch" Otter on
Thursday reminded any Idaho students hoping to continue their
education at a United States service academy to prepare now for
next fall's application process.
Candidates must be at least 17 but
not 23 years old by July 1, 2005,
to apply for a congressional nomination. Initial application information is due Oct. 31 for students
who hope to be nominated and
accepted to any of the service
academies for the 2005-2006 academic year. The deadline for completing application packages is
Nov. 30.
The mailing address is Congressman C.L. "Butch" Otter, Attn: Jim
Adams, 802 W. Bannock Street,
Suite 101, Boise, Idaho, 83702.
"America needs young leaders
ready to embrace the challenges
and opportunities posed by this
unique time in our nation's history. There are no better crucibles
for developing and proving those
leadership qualities than America's service academies," Otter
said. "The academies have produced generations of leaders - innovators and heroes who defined
ingenuity, courage and perseverance in defense of freedom. Today's generation includes young
men and women cut from the
same cloth, and I'm confident that
some of them are right here in
Idaho."
Otter may nominate up to 10 applicants to each of the four service
academies: U.S. Air Force Academy at Colorado Springs, Colo.;
U.S. Military Academy at West
Point, NY; U.S. Naval Academy
at Annapolis, Md.; and the U.S.
Merchant Marine Academy at
Kings Point, N.Y.

assistant for military and veterans

flung states like Idaho to travel an hour or
more each way to get lab work done, or
for tiny rural hospitals already fighting
for their lives to take on one more financial burden. That's the choice we were
given, and it makes no sense to me," Otter
said. "This bill will provide the financial
stability our rural hospitals need and the
health-care accessibility our seniors deserve."
Steven A. Millard, president of the Idaho
Hospital Association, agreed.
"How ludicrous this is becomes apparent
when you realize that often the hospital is
on one wing of a facility and the nursing
home on another. Or, the nursing home or
clinic is just across the street or down the
block." Millard said the CMS decision
has had a serious impact on the 24 critical
access hospitals that his association represents throughout Idaho, and on the patients they serve. "This is most crucial for
homebound elderly living far from the
hospital."
Millard said abandoning cost-based reimbursement imposes unnecessary physical
strain and expense on patients. He said
the Critical Access to Clinical Lab Services Act once again "will make the delivery of lab services by Idaho's rural hospitals reasonable and practical.
"The Idaho Hospital Association thanks
Congressman Otter for his ongoing concern and interest in maintaining quality
health-care services throughout the state,"
Millard said. "His legislation is a most
welcome step toward rectifying an unreasonable position taken by CMS."
EDMUNSON OUTLINES GOALS FOR
NEXT LEGISLATIVE SESSION
GOAL #1: Allow the One
Cent Sales Tax Increase to
Expire June of 2005 as
Planned
Two years ago with a 200
million dollar deficit, the
Governor asked for a 1.5
cent sales tax increase along
with a 60 cent cigarette tax
increase for a total of 285
million dollars of new taxes. After 118 days of
contentious wrangling, it was agreed to only a
one cent increase and 180 million dollars, but
only for two years. By controlling government
spending and keeping tight budgets for those
two years, we should have the necessary funds
to allow the sales tax increase to expire. It is
automatically set to expire in June of 2005 and
it is my #1 goal to make sure that happens.
GOAL #2: Protect and Preserve Our Right to
Manage Our Wildlife and Our Right to Hunt
and Fish
I worked hard to add an amendment to the
Idaho Constitution that would give us the right
to manage our wildlife and to protect those
management tools of hunting, fishing and trapping. This passed the House but because of lack
of time it stalled in the Senate. I will be bringing this legislation back on behalf of the
500,000 sportsmen of Idaho and the 250,000
Idaho children who deserve to have the opportunity to hunt and fish was we have. I will be
working on this issue all summer with many of
my fellow Idaho sportsmen and many sportsmen groups throughout Idaho. By passing this
we will be able to secure these rights for our
children, grandchildren and for generations to
come.
Western Legislative Forestry Task Force, the
people of Adams, Washington and Payette
Counties have a "seat at the table" with those
leaders in the Federal Government who can
help us rebuild our industries. Last May, when I
went to Washington D.C. and met with Dale
Bosworth of the USFS, Secretary of the Interior
Gale Norton and Mark Rey who is undersecretary of the Department of Agriculture, it was as
a spokesman for District 9. I will make this trip
again this May 10-15 where I will be able to,
once again, bring attention to Idaho's dependence on multiple use of our natural resources.
GOAL # 4: Keep the Education of Our Children
a Top Priority
In this day of national and global competition
for jobs, it is imperative that we make sure our
children are receiving the best possible education. I will make sure that funding for our small
rural schools is equitable per student to those
large schools in the Boise area. If those larger
schools are receiving more money for technology, teacher's salaries, textbooks and classroom
supplies, that will put our children at a disadvantage when it comes to competing for jobs. It
will be my job to make sure that doesn't happen.
GOAL # 5: Family
I truly believe that many of our problems we
currently face in society could be cured by helping families stay together as strong family units.
In my experience as an educator, children who
come from strong families are better learners,
less likely to use drugs, more respectful and
more likely to achieve success in life. There are
many detrimental aspects of society that can
destroy families. I will continue to vote for legislation that will strengthen our families.
Whether it's tougher sentences for meth drug
GOAL # 3: Work to Revitalize Our Natural Re- dealers, more rights for grandparents who have

Senior economics class participates in mock United Nations
By Brandon Taylor
Mr. Clete Edmunson’s economics
classes are studying international relationships and how different countries
work together as a community. This
unit stages a mock United Nations. The
students are divided into different countries for which they research the global
economic role that their country plays.
The students were divided up into 15
groups, of four students each. Mr. Edmunson randomly selected different
countries for each group: Australia,
Cambodia, Costa Rica, France, Germany, Iran, Italy, Jamaica, Japan,
Kenya, Mexico, North Korea, Russia,
Spain, and Sweden.
The students have discovered population demographics, major products
and GNP, natural resources, and even
favorite foods. Tomorrow, May 6 the
students from all three classes will meet
all day in the multipurpose room to
mock up a real United Nations meeting.
They will represent their countries in
dress and personality as they trade, talk
about global issues, and learn how the
process works. “It’s going to be awesome!” says Amy Kahalekomo, and
Ashley Kane agrees.
Student delegate assignments to the
various countries are as follows:
Australia: Joni Hagler, Shara Eaton,
Kayla Kawolski, Becka Navarro.
Cambodia: Casey Baker, Eric Hinson,
Evan Hawker, Mike Murdock.

NPHS needs to clean up campus
By: Lindsey Parker
There is entirely too much trash being
thrown on the ground and floors of New
Plymouth High School. Students are
leaving trash on the stage and balcony
in the multi purpose room. “People will
throw trash on the ground right by the
garbage can rather than in it,”says
groundskeeper-maintenance man Kip
Mitchell.
The leftover food lying around, and
the sour milk left on the stairs is beginning to pile up, and is a significant
problem for the janitorial staff. The
hallways, gymnasium, multipurpose
room, and grounds are littered with
thrash.
Pilgrim image and Pilgrim spirit are
most evident to visitors and parents
through school appearance. More importantly, neatness increases school
pride.
Options when students see a mess: 1.
Report it. 2. Ask the messy guy or girl
to pick it up. 3. Pick it up themselves.
Every Pilgrim can be resourceful and
responsible.

Volunteer project provides security blankets
By Alex Case
Mrs. Lisa Higby’s childcare class
pieced together five quilt tops and thentied quilts to the batting and a back for
Project Linus.
They have worked with Donna
Aten who is the area coordinator of the
project. The quilts will be given to seriously ill or traumatized children of all
ages. This gift of new, handmade blankets is like hug to hurting children.
The quilts will be delivered back to
Mrs. Aten to be bound and handed out.
Donna’s chapter has delivered 4,437
blankets since February 1998.
Mrs. Higby’s Childcare Class made
a total of four quilts. These quilts will
go to youth in the southwest area of
Idaho.
Quilting was something that all teens
knew how to do in past century but not
now. Learning how make a quilt was a
bonus connected to the project.

Representative Clete Edmunson is
up for election again this year. This
will be his second term as District 9
Seat B House of Representatives.
District 9 includes all of Adams,
Washington and Payette counties, and
one precinct in Canyon County. He
served on three committees: State Affairs, Judiciary Rules and Administration, and Environmental Affairs.
His most memorable achievement
was the passage of his Constitutional
Amendment on the House floor while
his government students were in the
gallery watching. This amendment
will protect and preserve the right to
hunt, fish, and trap as well as give Idahoans a right to manage their own wild
life.
He has accomplished 100% passage
of all bills he sponsored on the floor of
the House. He was also awarded "AG
All-star” for his voting record on agricultural issues and was appointed to
really great job at your schools.”
He already comes to the school periodically in response to incidents and to
just check in. He is getting to know the
students and faculty to prepare for next
year.
Former SRO Scott Fitchett has moved
to Anchorage, Alaska. He will be filling
a new position there. He said that his
five-year experience here was great, and
he has a lot of good memories to leave
with.
Senior slide show rescheduled for tonight
By Lindsey Parker
All seniors, their parents, and teachers
were invited to attend the junior senior
banquet April 19.
The slideshow preparations went
awry. Hannah Hamilton worked many
hours preparing the slides from photos
submitted by seniors. The power of the
lap top was insufficient to make the presentations possible however. It is scheduled to be shown tonight May 5 at 7:00
in the multi purpose room.
The décor of the banquet was semi formal and Hawaiian. The junior hosts and
hostesses wore traditional Hawaiian
theme shirts, and multi colored leis.
Before the meal was served, several
hosts and hostesses handed out the senior’s personal history projects. The seniors created those projects as a last minute United States History 2 project. The
pictures and paragraphs in the books
served as conversation topics, and reminiscence pieces.
Mr. Gary Jones spoke first, addressing
the Western Legislative Forestry Task
Force.
Mr. Edmunson says, “ My personal
hero is my dad. He taught me to take
pride in what I do and who I am and that
nothing is more important than family.
”He also said, “My political hero is
Theodore Roosevelt. “ He was never
afraid to take a firm stance on tough issues; he never backed down from a fight
or a vote, and he never compromised his
integrity.
Being a state legislature is very difficult for his family. “It is a sacrifice of
both time and money.” During the session he spends all week in Boise, while
his wife Shelly has full responsibility of
the house, their three children, as well as
her personal tasks which include: her job
as a teacher, coach, and BPA advisor.
Last year, he had more money deducted from his teaching salary than he
received from Legislature. “I fully understood those sacrifices before I was
elected and understand that the rewards,
like teaching, come from other sources.”
the seniors faculty members, and parents.
He amused and embarrassed many of the
seniors in attendance reading quotations
of the innocent statements they’d made
over the years. “Can I have 10 cents so I
can buy a pencil? I only have a dime,”
from Shara Eaton. “Do fish have nipples?” from Cole Dennett. “How deep
does it float?” asked Jonathon Chapman.
Jessica Kynoch offered the blessing,
and dinner was served. The menu included roast pork, green beans, minute
rice smothered in sweet and sour sauce,
and dinner rolls.
During dinner Mr. Clete Edmunson
spoke. He explained the details behind
the senior’s personal history projects. “I
always hear kids complaining about history. They say ‘This is boring,’ and
‘None of this happened in my lifetime.’ I
wanted them to research the history that
took place in their lives, just during the
last 18 years.” It was a project that included their own history as well as the
Teacher-Legistator Clete Edmunson. Working with his contemporaries in the Legislature during
nation and world history.
House session requires several weeks absence from his government, history and economics class early in
the fourth semester of school.

a ten-year-old kid who killed his mom. He got four
years in the prison. But the crazy thing is that an 81
year old man got 6 years for cattle rustling. That shows
how different times were back in the day.
After that we went and had a tour of the prison itself.
We walked through the old cell blocks. They were
really small, I sure wouldn’t want to stay in there for
very long.
We then went into the laundry room and looked at
all of the old machinery. We also looked at death row
records.
The way they executed people was
pretty cool. They had a board in the floor that opens
when you pull a lever. So what they would do is put
the noose around someone's neck and then flip the
switch. The prisoner would then fall and his neck
would snap.
We then made our way to the arms museum inside
the prison.
They had all kinds of weapons there. Dating back to
the cowboy days to the present. There were guns that
fired 700 shots per minute! Most of the weapons there
were semi– automatic, there were a number of shanks,
NEW PLYMOUTH NEWS

which were used to penetrate a victims
flesh with ease.
A lot of these “shanks” were made out
of spoons, broken pieces of metal, bedsprings, etc. the prisoners used sling
shots to annoy the prison guards. And
the used to wrap tape around chains and
hurt people with them.
The prisoners at the old penitentiary
had a variety of tattoos, most of which
symbolized something gang related.
They made the tattoo guns out of pens
and old batteries. Those prisoners were
pretty crafty if you ask me.
We saw a lot of pictures of tattooed
prisoners and a lot of old tattoos.
All and all I think the field trip was a
good educational experience and I
would like to go there again. I learned a
lot and I’m glad I went. Field trips like
this are experiences I will remember for
the rest of my life.

meet hunter expectations. The wildlife
agency said it's time that changed. "It basically came down to we can't continue
what we're currently doing. We're going
to have to do something different," said
Brad Compton, State Big Game Manager.
"We're going to have to get more engaged
in intensive management, so to speak."
Over the next year, the Department of
Fish & Game will be partnering with federal and state land agencies, sportsmen's
groups and private landowners to launch
an intensive effort to promote mule deer
numbers. "It's pretty exciting for those of
us in the Department that really kind of
like mule deer," said Compton. "And it's
an opportunity to do some things that are
the reason we got into this business."
Hunting shouldn't be a factor in the total
populations because seasons in troubled
areas are buck-only. Issues that are more
likely to be affecting mule deer populations range from predation and disease to
habitat change and degradation. Biologists believe a big reason may be the
steady disappearance of aspen stands.
"Aspen is one of the most productive
habitat types that we have in Idaho because it has a real rich forb base and that
is real key especially to mule deer does
that are raising fawns," said Compton.
Another factor may be the expansion of
elk into traditional mule deer range. Biologists have observed where both species occur, mule deer seem to suffer. And
of course, everyone points to tough winters as a major factor in mule deer decline, but actually dry, drought-stricken
summers are as much to blame.
"About every ten years or so we see a
winter that comes through, especially in
southern Idaho that kind of knocks mule
deer populations back. What's real interesting is that summer range, in some
cases, may be even more important than
the winter range," said Compton.
"Because if these deer will come onto the
winter range in really good shape with
lots of fat on them, they can survive most

Meeting in Riggins April 22-23, the Idaho
Idaho Fish and Game now offers
the opportunity to take hunter
education online, one of a handful
of agencies in the country to do
so.
Before a hunting license is issued, Idahoans born January 1, 1975 or later must
complete hunter education.
Idaho's geography makes it difficult for
some to attend the typical 20 hours of
formal classes required for instructor-led
hunter education, so Steve Huffaker, Director of
Fish and Game, decided to offer the
chance to take hunter education over the
Internet. The program went online April
26.
State Hunter Education Program Coordinator Ron Fritz said he is happy to be able
to make the program more accessible for
some Idahoans, but he noted that the
online course "should not be regarded as
an easier way to pass, and it is not for
everyone." He noted that the course is
designed for self-motivated students with
some firearms experience. For that reason
Fritz recommends the online course only
for students 14 or older. He also recommends students contemplating taking the
course complete the Pre-Test prior to attempting the course as it will give them
an indication of whether or not the course
is a suitable option for them.
The online course requires a $15 testing
fee for the final course Pre-Certification
Exam that is not charged for the traditional course. The testing fee goes to the
contract administrator of the program
rather than Fish and Game. There is no
charge for the Pre-Test, the on-line
course, or the Practice Test. The usual $8
materials fee is also charged when the
online student attends the mandatory field
day before final certification is granted.
The online course information can be
found at <http://fishandgame.idaho.gov./

Apply Now for Elk, Deer, Antelope and Bear Controlled Hunts
Controlled
hunt applications for deer,
elk, antelope
and black bear
can be filed
May 1 through
the last day of
May.
Hunters can find application forms in the
big game proclamation booklet currently
being delivered to license vendors and
Fish and Game offices statewide. Hunting
rules and seasons can also be found
online at fishandgame.idaho.gov where
hunters will be able to apply for hunts
with the use of a credit card.
Applications can be made through the
Point of Sale Machine (POSM) system at
more than 400 license vendors statewide
as well as at Fish and Game offices.
Mailed applications must be postmarked
no later than May 31 and sent to IDFG,
Licensing, P.O. Box 25, Boise, Idaho
83707. Applications can be filed by calling 1-800-554-8685.
Applicants using the web site or phone
system will be charged three percent of
the transaction plus a $3.50 convenience
fee by the contractors who handle those
systems, in addition to the $6.50 application fee. A credit card is required for
those using computer or phone. Applications mailed to Fish and Game should be
accompanied by a check or money order.
Fish and Game offices cannot accept
credit card payment.
Hunters must have a hunting license before applying for controlled hunts.
License, application and tag costs are the
same as last year.
Win Big Buck$, Apply for Controlled Hunts Early
Hunters who apply early for this fall's
controlled hunts for deer, elk, black bear
and antelope can win big bucks in either
of two ways: draw a tag and hunt one in
the field, or be the lucky winner of a
drawing worth $600 or $400.
The applications are accepted during the
whole month of May, but only those received by May 10 will be entered in the
$600 drawing to be held May 14. The
next deadline is May 20 for the $400
drawing to be held May 25. The drawing
is sponsored by the Idaho Fish and Wildlife Foundation and funded by GTECH
Corporation. The Foundation and
GTECH hope to encourage everyone to
apply early, not wait until the last day.
Fish and Game Commission decided to
keep upland game season openers on the
same dates while extending seasons for
quail and partridge in three regions.
Fish and Game biologists proposed starting quail and partridge seasons later than
they have traditionally begun and running
them to the end of January. The Commission decided to stay with the same opening dates as last year for all upland species but to extend the season on chukar,
gray partridge and quail through January
31 in the Southwest, Clearwater and Panhandle Regions. Commissioners from the
eastern side of the state said the later closing would not work there because snows
more commonly make game birds more
vulnerable, so seasons on those three species in the Magic Valley Region will
close December 31. There is no quail season in the Southeast, Upper Snake or
Salmon regions, where chukar and gray
partridge will close December 31. The
Salmon Region will keep its January 15
closing for chukar and gray partridge.
Seasons for forest grouse, sharp-tailed
grouse, sage grouse, crow, rabbit and hare
will be the same as last year.
The Commission reduced the daily bag
limit for pheasants on Wildlife Management Areas (WMAs) where pheasants are
stocked to two for this fall. Pheasant
hunting will begin at 10 a.m. on the Fort
Boise, C.J. Strike, Montour and Payette
WMAs to reduce conflict with waterfowl
hunters and increase safety for employees
releasing pheasants.
Motorized vehicle restrictions will apply
to upland game hunters in the 26 units
where the rules apply to big game hunting. Hunters in those units must keep
their vehicles on roads capable of carrying full-sized rigs.
Ask Fish and Game
Q. Is it ok to laminate my paper hunting
and fishing license to make it more durable?
A. It is perfectly legal and proper to do
just that, so laminate to your heart's content as long as the license is legible when
you are finished. One major caveat: the
paper is heat sensitive and-some have discovered to their dismay-will turn black if
you use a hot lamination method. Staff in
our regional offices have reported that
ANY heat will turn the license too black
to read. Then the license is ruined and it
costs $6.50 for a duplicate. Be sure to
sign it before you laminate it!

Fishing Idaho’s
Boundary Waters
By Jeff Wolfe, Regional Conservation Officer
Idaho Department of Fish and Game – Southwest
Region
The Snake River drainage forming part of
Idaho’s west boundary with Oregon provides some
outstanding fishing opportunities for bass, crappie
and catfish. As an angler, knowing the reciprocal
regulations for this area is easier than you might
think.
Many years ago, Idaho and Oregon decided to
coordinate reciprocal use agreements for the boundary waters of the Snake River, including Brownlee,
Oxbow and Hells Canyon Reservoirs. Questions and
issues pertaining to licenses, bag limits and access
were addressed and resolved in a manner that maximizes fishing opportunity for Idaho and Oregon anglers alike.
Here’s what you need to know. Anglers choosing to fish boundary waters and their islands must
possess either an Idaho or an Oregon fishing license.
Both licenses are valid when fishing from islands or
boat fishing in open water. However, anglers bank
fishing (including wading into the water but standing
on the bottom) must possess a fishing license from
the state having jurisdiction over the shore area being
fished from.
Here’s another important detail. Even though the
boundary water agreement allows fishing open waters between both states with either an Oregon or
Idaho license, the agreement does not allow anglers
to fish in tributary rivers or sloughs outside the main
flow line of the Snake River or its impoundments
without possessing the appropriate state license. For
instance, a boat angler possessing an Idaho fishing
license would not be allowed to boat up Oregon’s
Powder River from its confluence with Brownlee
Reservoir and lawfully fish without possessing a
valid Oregon fishing license.
Daily bag and possession limits for fish are generally the same for both states, but if one state has a
more liberal bag limit and the angler possesses that
state’s license, the higher number of fish may be
lawfully taken and possessed. The key thing to remember is that only one bag/possession limit may be
retained, even if an angler possesses both an Idaho
and an Oregon fishing license.
Anglers are free to access these boundary waters
from either state shoreline, regardless of state fishing
license in possession. It is also lawful for anglers to
possess and or transport their catch in either state as
long as they possess either state’s fishing license and
the fish were lawfully caught under the license requirements previously defined regarding bag limits,
open water and shoreline fishing activities. For example, it is lawful for an Idaho-licensed angler to
launch a boat from the Oregon shoreline, fish open
boundary waters, catch and keep some crappie and
transport the catch (no live fish) back into Idaho
from the Oregon boat ramp.
Boundary water fishing opportunities are outstanding, and the reciprocal agreement between Oregon and Idaho helps make these opportunities easy
and fun to enjoy. As a side note, these same general
principles also apply to hunting and trapping activities along the boundary waters and islands of the
Snake River system.
Don’t miss the chance to fish this reservoir system soon. Fishing for bass, crappie and catfish
should be red hot as May approaches.

During the past few weeks, several thousand camoclad hunters have been traversing Idaho in pursuit of
tom turkey. And as they’ve left home and traveled
rural Idaho, frequenting gas stations, restaurants and
other businesses, they’ve left a trail of money. Actually, a good bit of money.
To determine exactly how much money, the National Wild Turkey Federation (NWTF) contracted a
national survey of turkey hunters around the country to
get a handle on the economic impact of spring turkey
hunting. Nationally, annual expenditures by spring turkey hunters in 2003 totaled $1.795 billion! And as
those dollars flowed through businesses and wholesalers, they stimulated $4.4 billion in economic activity.
The report goes on to say that this activity, in turn,
supported $88.9 million in state sales tax and $198.6
million in federal income tax receipts.
Okay. As impressive as those figures are, I can’t
relate to them very well either.
But we can get closer to home; Idaho was one of
the nine states surveyed to develop these figures.
Last year, nearly 18,000 hunters took part in
Idaho’s spring turkey hunting season. Retail sales to
those hunters totaled nearly $13 million dollars. And
the total economic activity stimulated by spring turkey
hunting in Idaho generated $650,000 in Idaho sales
and income tax. Those concerned about tax revenues
ought to be able to relate to that.
If you’ve already done the math, you’ve figured
out that those figures mean each Idaho turkey hunter
spent an average of $724 that they attributed to spring
turkey hunting. Three-fourths of that was attributed to
“non-trip” expenses, such as licenses, camping gear,
camo clothes, ammunition, decoys, etc. These are the
things that accumulate and sneak into the garage during the off-season so they don’t all show up on the
credit card bill just prior to turkey season.
The NWTF survey showed that “trip” expendiNEW PLYMOUTH NEWS

tures (the money that leaves tracks across rural Idaho)
averaged $156 per hunter for the spring turkey season.
Now that begins to hit home.
How do these figures compare to your spending? I
saw the report just before the turkey opener, and for
the heck of it, kept track of what my hunting buddy
and I spent on our annual turkey outing – and where
we spent it – to see how we compared to these figures.
“Average” spending for two hunters for the season
would be $312; we spent a combined $198 for our
four-day trip (we hope to get out again, so will get
closer to the season average).
How was our spending distributed? Officials in
rural counties that support the bulk of the hunting activity have expressed frustration that a lot of the “trip”
money gets spent before hunters leave home – buying
groceries and gassing the vehicle. That does happen.
But in our case, we left tracks across five counties.
Less than one-third of our total was spent in our home
county.
The money we dribbled out across rural Idaho isn’t going to bulge the coffers in any of the counties we
visited, but throw together 18,000 other turkey hunters, then deer hunters, salmon anglers, elk hunters,
crappie anglers, and other sportsmen and it does make
a difference; a big difference. Hunting, fishing and
wildlife watching is a billion dollar industry in Idaho.
Turkey hunters – and sportsmen in general – leave
big tracks across Idaho.

final meet of the season — and final opportunity to set any new records this
year — is this Friday May 7th at Vale.
My name is Jessica Scott. I am 12 years
old and I have been diabetic since the
age of three. This year I am going to
participate in the Diabetes Ride on May
15th, 2004 in the Eagle foothills.
This year’s donations from each riders’
sponsorships will go towards Camp Hodia, which is for kids with juvenile diabetes like me. The cost of the camp has
increased in the last 2 years and is now
$350 per child or teen. I know how
much I learn every year and how much I
really look forward to going to camp
when summer gets here.
I am not raising funds for myself, but
my goal is to raise $3500 to send ten
new kids to camp who otherwise would
not be able to come.
I welcome anyone who wants to support
this effort. You can mail checks payable
to Humphrey’s Diabetes Center to this
newspaper: PO Box 10 New Plymouth.
Thank you,
Jessica Scott
From the editor:
To Dan Bicandi,
Dan, this past week we’ve had so many
people stop by the newspaper office
asking us to print something for you.
Many more people have called. Others
have stopped us in the streets, at Kiwanis, and even at church. My secretary
here at the paper said, “I don't know
Dan that well, but from what everyone
has said about him before and after the
accident, he is one loved person with
lots of prayers and well wishes.”
I want to join everyone else who knows
you and wish you a speedy recovery.
And remember, an apple a day keeps
the doctor away… especially if you
throw hard and your aim is good!

Last week was Secretary’s Week. The entire school thanked our great secretaries.
Several classes sang songs to the ladies. Other classes made notes or pictures. The
staff celebrated with a cake and a many kind words for our secretaries. Pictured are
Roxanna Cline, Tammy Arnzen, and Wanda Ford.
Message from the Mayor:
The Mayor was out of town this weekend and unable to write to anything for the
paper.
You can bet he’ll be writing something next week.
