NIH board faces
complaints, deficit
Officials working
to balance budget
amidst conflict
between CEO and
nurses union
By Jon Klusmire
Register Correspondent
The Northern Inyo
Hospital Board of Directors
faced another round of blunt
criticism from hospital
employees and citizens concerning its actions and the
performance of the hospital
CEO, and then confronted a
preliminary budget for the
coming fiscal year that
showed a $3.9 million deficit.
Hospital board members
said they are well aware of
the issues in the hospital
regarding personnel issues
and nurses’ union organizing
effort, refuting claims the
hospital CEO was either misleading the board or not
keeping the board fully
informed of the situation.
Members of the nurses’
union negotiating committee
and members of the public
made it clear during the comment period of the
Wednesday board meeting

In a week filled with highlights, Zachary Hanko of District 5 scored a big one when he brought the

his ride. He stayed on and in control enough to be Thursday night’s bareback winner. Check out

Approximately $30 million in taxpayer money was discussed Tuesday as the Inyo County Board of Education adopted the Office of Education’s Final 2015-16 Budget.
Of that total, $21 million is budgeted for YouthBuild charter schools in Los Angeles and $8.9 million is budgeted for
Inyo County. Those charter schools are considered part of Inyo

of Treasurer-Tax Collector
Alisha McMurtrie.
With budget hearings
approaching and a $1.8 million gap to close through cutbacks and other savings, the
board was not eager to add
to county expenses.
Board Chair and Fifth
District Supervisor Matt
Kingsley gave McMurtrie his
word, however, that he would
keep her request in mind during upcoming discussions.
“I appreciate you bringing
this forward and am at this
point willing to take it into
consideration,” he said, noting he was not willing to
approve any increases
Tuesday. “I do want the
opportunity to research it a
little bit and think about it a
little more before I take any
action on it.”

A woman walked out of
the Bonanza restaurant on
Main Street in Lone Pine and
headed to her car. She
stopped when she saw the
long, colorful mural on the
south wall of the building.
She pulled out her smart
phone and snapped a quick
photo before getting into her
car.
At the far end of the
mural, artist Vincent Leal
didn’t notice. He was sitting
on a box, an array of tools
and paint around him,
focused on putting the final
touches on the lettering on
one of the mural’s seven panels.
But the woman’s simple,
impulsive move to take a

Did You Know?
Caparison first embellished English in the 1500s, when
we borrowed it from the Middle French caparaçon. Early
caparisons were likely used to display the heraldic colors of
a horseman, and in some cases may also have functioned as
protective covering for the horse. In British India, it was elephants, not horses, that were decked out with caparisons—
and to this day both animals can still be seen in such attire
during parades and circuses. It did not take long for caparison to come to refer to the ornate clothing worn by a man
or woman. Caparison also serves English as a verb, a use
first recorded in Shakespeare when Richard III commanded,
“Come, bustle, bustle; caparison my horse.”

Continued from front page
concept and execution of his
“social media mural.”
In several ways, Leal’s
mural is unique when compared to other building-sized
murals in the Owens Valley.
Instead of relying on
grants or donations, Leal paid
for the entire project, from
paying a contractor to redo
the exterior wall to buying
paint and brushes, out of his
own pocket. “It’s my gift to
Lone Pine,” he said as he sat
on the tailgate of his truck,
which was brimming with
paint, tools and markers, on
an early Saturday evening. In
addition, “funding it myself
had so many benefits,” chief
among them “having total
artistic control.”
Leal gathered community
input and even some of the
specific scenes in the mural
from the very social media
the mural depicts. He used
Facebook to generate interest
in the project and update followers on the mural’s progress, and staged a “photo
contest” across all social
media platforms, which
resulted in people sending in
photos of iconic Lone Pine
scenes, some of which ended
up on the mural.
The result is “a multi-generational” mural, he said.
Baby boomers and older folks
can easily relate to the mural
with its striking, colorful,
painted scenes of the Lone
Pine area and its main attractions, including the Mobius
Arch in the Alabama Hills, Mt.
Whitney and ranch scenes.
The younger folks will immediately recognize that the
seven panels are exact replicas of the layout and wording
of smart-phone screen shots
from Facebook, Instagram
and other social media, he
said.
Also setting the mural
apart from most others are
the topics for the artwork
and the style. There are no
people in the seven panels,
and they do not depict a historical scene. They are straight
depictions of landscapes.
Leal’s style is also a bit different. Bold primary colors
stand out from a distance,
and on closer inspection,
each scene or panel contains
a level of detail rarely seen in
murals that span an entire
wall (the mural is 53 feet long
and 15 feet tall). “The more
intimate detail makes it interesting for the viewer both
close in and from far away,”
Leal said.
The striking artwork Leal
created is even more impressive when considering that he
is pretty much a self-taught
artist, and his full-time job is
about as far removed from
an artistic life as you can get.
Since 1999, Leal has been
working hundreds of feet off
the ground as an electric
transmission line lineman for
the Los Angeles Department
of Water and Power. As a
“transmission line patrolman,” Leal, who lives in Lone
Pine, can find himself working on high-voltage electric
lines anywhere from Mono
County to the Mojave Desert
and the rest of the western
U.S. He was able to use up his
vacation time and devote
most of the month of April to
the mural.
The only art classes the
Montebello native has taken
were at East Los Angeles
College and through a correspondence course. However,
as a teen, he won one of
those “draw this bear” art
contests, by enlarging it
before working on it. That is
the way murals are made,
too. The rest of his art education came from working at
some galleries, “reading a lot
of stuff” and creating art, he
said.
Although he’s been creating art for about 20 years, it
was only since moving to
Lone Pine that he begin to
understand and employ “the
entrepreneurial aspects of
art” to his passion, he said.
In Lone Pine, that means
engaging the community and
visitors through social media
and working with business,
the high school and other
building owners to create
more than stand-alone murals
or artworks. Leal has completed a number of other
works in Lone Pine (at the
Lone Pine Chamber Courtyard,
the Athletic Complex, Lone
Pine High School, Mt. Whitney
Hostel and the Totem Café)
as part of his “urban street
art project.” And he has more
plans and ideas in mind to
add to the “unified art experience” that visitors and locals
can enjoy in Lone Pine.
Those big plans aside, Leal
considered the large “social
media mural” that will be an
“anchor” for more community art projects, and declared,
“I’m happy with it. I think it’s
going to be a big hit.”
And if smart-phone wielding visitors stopping to snap
photos of the work are any
indication, he’s right.

projects, look on his web page,

that they believed removing
CEO Victoria Alexander-Lane
would solve many of the
problems they outlined, but
the board did not make any
move to publicly give direction to Alexander-Lane,
much less express any willingness to remove her from
her post.
The board approved portions of the 2015-16 budget,
and the administration and
staff will be looking to close
the nearly $4 million budget
deficit in the coming months
without resorting to raising
prices at the hospital.
The meeting began with
nurses reading a statement
that reiterated charges that
Alexander-Lane was not
negotiating in good faith
with union representatives.
The nurses and their union,
the American Federation of
State, County and Municipal
Employees, filed “unfair
practice charges” with the
state labor relations board
last
Friday,
alleging
Alexander-Lane “refused to
bargain” with the Bargaining
Committee regarding how
the hospital’s current grievance, discipline and sick
leave policies would be
changed or otherwise incorporated into a contract with
the nurse’s union.
The
statement
also
alleged that Alexander-Lane
was not informing the board
fully of the legal ramifications of the recent actions
and was “misinforming you
about the seriousness of our
concerns.”
The statement urged the
board to “direct your CEO to
bargain in good faith, cease
and desist from discriminating” against the union organizers and “move quickly to
an agreement with your
Registered Nurses.”
Chris Wickham, of the
Inyo County Employees
Association, said his union
supported the nurses, adding union members in the
valley “are a majority” and
they vote.
Dr. Eric Richman, a Bishop
optometrist whose wife is
on the union negotiating
committee, said the hospital
situation was “surreal,” and
that “morale has never been
lower.”
“I have no ax to grind,”
said Bishop businessman
Todd Lembke, but he said
the board has to “start paying attention” to the employee situation. “You can’t hide
your heads in the sand forever.”
“This board does not have
its head in the sand,”
responded Board Member
Pete Watercott, adding that,
by law, “personnel matters
are confidential” and cannot
be discussed at a public
meeting.
Board President M.C.
Hubbard stated the board
“is not going to negotiate
union issues at a board
meeting or in the newspaper.”
“We are working” on all
the concerns and issues
raised, said Board Member
Denise Hayden. “People need
to take a breath and let us
do our jobs.”
In the next few months,
the board will be working to
balance the hospital’s 201516 budget, which totals
about $75 million.
Alexander-Lane said that
in the past, NIH had simply
raised prices to cover budget shortfalls, and that has
led to the Eastern Sierra having “the highest price for
healthcare” that she had
seen in her career. Last year
the hospital did not raise
prices and eventually balanced the budget without
salary cuts or layoffs.
Alexander-Lane said she
would not raise prices to
make up the projected budget shortfall for 2015-16.
“We’ll find $4 million and
cut it” from the preliminary
budget
presented
on
Wednesday. “We’ll find ways
to be more efficient and
effective.”
However, Alexander-Lane
pointed out the budget cutting will be a challenge,
because “there are not a lot
of places to go” to find savings.
Employee benefits are
“expensive,” because of a
defined-benefit retirement
plan and because the hospital is “self-insured” for
employee medical costs,
Alexander-Lane pointed out.
For example, the cost last
year for employees’ and
families’ prescription drug
benefits was $250,000.
Typically, benefits add 40
percent to salary costs, but
at NIH the figure is about 80
percent. The budget shows
$24.4 million in Salaries and
Wages, and $19.4 million in
Employee Benefits.
The hospital is legally
obligated to maintain a certain amount of money in the
bank to back payment of the

$50 million in bonds that
financed the new hospital
building, and must pay
about $3.4 million in interest payments on those
bonds this year, AlexanderLane said.
The hospital also spends
about $3.8 million a year for
medical offices and other
costs to support physicians
and other providers, she
said.
At the meeting, the board
approved payment of the
$3.4 million interest expense,
about $5.1 million for depreciation, and the $2.8 million

capital improvement budget. “We won’t have to spend
that unless we absolutely
need to,” Alexander-Lane
noted.
Overall, the proposed
2015-16 budget shows about
$75 million in operating revenue from “patient services”
and
fund
transfers.
Operating expenses total
about $72.8 million. But
other expenses, such as the
interest and doctor medical
office costs, total $6.1 million, which puts the projected deficit at about $3.9 million.
Taxpayers in the hospital
district will pay about
$533,000 in property taxes
to support NIH.
Benzodiazepines—named for their chemical
structure—are among the most commonly prescribed
medications in developed countries. They include
alprazolam (Xanax), diazepam (Valium), and lorazepam
(Ativan). The most common uses of benzodiazepines are
to treat anxiety and sleep problems. While effective for
Dwayne Wilson
both conditions, the medications have risks, especially
when used over long periods. Long-term use can lead to dependence and
withdrawal symptoms when discontinued. In older people, research has shown
that benzodiazepines can impair cognition, mobility, and driving skills, and
they increase the risk of falls. A new study in JAMA Psychiatry finds that
prescription use of benzodiazepines – a widely used class of sedative and
anti-anxiety medications – increases steadily with age, despite the known risks
for older people.

A new analysis suggests that women who use bisphosphonates – medications
commonly used to treat osteoporosis and other bone conditions – have about
half the risk of developing endometrial cancer as women who do not use
the drugs. Published early online in CANCER, a peer-reviewed journal of the
American Cancer Society, the study supports other research that has shown an
anti-cancer effect of this type of medication.

From the Editor
A ray of hope
Here we go again, I thought.
Superintendent of Schools Dr. Terry McAteer was professing his lack
of trust and faith in The Inyo Register as a reason for not granting this
publication interviews or even providing it with simple information he
is freely offering up to everyone from blogs-in-print to the Bishop Lions
Club.
This time, his claim was in response to a Bishop couple asking him at
Tuesday’s Board of Education whether the Register could attend a private sitdown McAteer just offered to have with the pair so that he could
he address any and all concerns they may have.
And while McAteer has made the lack of trust
claim off and on since February – breaking only to
cooperate with the Register in the publication of
two articles on countywide projects initiated and/
or funded by the superintendent – this time members of the public weren’t letting it slide unchallenged.
Gary Colbert noted that McAteer trusts the
Register enough to advertise within its pages, to
get his message out to his constituents.

city manager and director of development for
places like the City of San Bernardino and the City
opinion
of Industry, questioned McAteer’s wisdom in
refusing to speak with the number one source of news – hard news – in
Inyo County. He said in his experience he’s dealt with plenty of media
he didn’t get along with or necessarily like, but he talked to them anyway.
By the end of public comment, that’s exactly what McAteer agreed to
do.
It is my understanding, and I hope Dr. McAteer is under the same
impression, we will meet sometime in August – the objective being to
put an end to the past several months of unnecessary conflict between
his office and this newspaper, and lack of cooperation from him, the
Board of Education and his staff.
It is my hope that we can move forward in a spirit of cooperation
and with the kind of full transparency that the Register has been asking
for since February.
It should be a great start to repairing a relationship upon which both
McAteer’s office and the public depend for the exchange of vital information about our schools and related programs.
And should this meeting result in the free flow of information, it will
be the attainment of what this paper has been after all along – not a war
of words, not name-calling, not dragging each other through the mud,
but transparency with regard to the spending of our tax dollars.
And you know what?
Handouts provided to accompany budget talks on Tuesday were the
most detailed and clearly defined as I’ve ever seen them from the Office
of Education. Expenditures were divided into groups based on funding
sources, costs were given and McAteer took the time to explain programs both new and old. It was awesome.
And the board, it actually made motions and seconded those motions
and called for approval of those motions like a real governing entity.
Sure, the board members giggled some while doing it, but progress is
progress.
For anyone who cares about the sanctity of public office and transparency in government, Tuesday’s Board of Education meeting was a ray
of hope.
There were still some lowlights – including the approval of minutes
from the May 19 meeting that included a motion that never took place,
despite written objections beforehand; initial silence and then murky
answers when Jerry Winstead asked whether students were meeting
expectations under Inyo County’s education system; and the fact the
meeting was held in the middle of the afternoon 45 minutes away from
where the majority of the concerned taxpayers reside.
But as for the board, here’s hoping they keep it up.
And here’s hoping more members of the public continue to attend
these meetings and pay attention to how these millions of dollars are
being spent – and if these expenditures are being prioritized in a manner consistent with the Office of Education’s Mission Statement:
“Working in partnership with school districts, other agencies, and families, the Inyo County Board of Education and Superintendent of Schools
staff supports quality education for all students. Our responsibilities are
to facilitate and communicate information, programs, and change; serve
as an innovative role model; promote increased efficiency; and coordinate efforts.”
See you in August, Terry.

Northern Inyo Hospital Board of
Directors at its regular meeting.
The author forwarded the statement to The Inyo Register for
publication. –Ed.)
NIH Board Members,
I am speaking to you tonight
on behalf of your newest labor
union. My name is Chris Wickham,
I am a member of your hospital
district and the president of the
Inyo
County
Employee
Association. I urge you to direct your administration to stop wasting valuable
money to defend unlawful behavior and bargain in good faith with
your nurses. Your district is refusing to bargain in good faith with
your nurses over something as
basic as a grievance procedure.
I want you to be aware there
are many, many union members
in our community, such as our
brothers and sisters that:
• Deliver our water and power • Work for our State
• Patrol our highways
• Teach our children
• Repair and improve our highways
• Build our buildings
• Provide food for us to buy
• And perform vital services in
our communities that make our
valley safe and livable
We are the majority, watching
quietly for now but with great
concern.
We vote and visit NIH.

Significant Details
A fluid start to summertime shopping
My last trip to the grocery
store was a bit odd. Normally, I’m
as incognito as the next guy as I
stroll up and down the aisles, but
this time I noticed people were
looking at
me as if I
was doing
something
weird. Then
there were
the raised
eyebrows
and little
smirks
when folks
surveyed
Jon Klusmire
the contents
of my shopopinion
ping cart.
The odd looks started as soon
as I started my sojourn. After
busting through the doors, I was
literally frozen for a few
moments as I basked in the cold
air pouring over my pointy little
head. Air conditioning. What a
treat. Other impatient shoppers
weren’t as enthralled, it seems,
and muttered for me to “get out
of the way” or banged into me
with their carts, which pretty
much disrupted my air-conditioned Zen moment.
First up: produce. It was watermelon and only watermelon,
since it delivers a mouthful of
water in every bite (thus the
name, right?).
Let’s make up for the lack of
fresh fruits and vegetables with
juice, shall we? Get some V-8,
tomato, Clamato (sounds gross
but these are desperate times),
apple juice and cider (does anyone really know the difference?),
orange, cranberry or cran-apple
or any other combo, like mangoorange, or raspberry-apple, or
blueberry-cumquat, or whatever.
At this point, even “a juice-like
drink” is good enough to go into
the cart. TIP: Don’t look too closely at the labels, since most of this
stuff is about 10 percent juice
with enough added sugar to give
a horse seizures but that’s OK,
we’re after volume.
Next aisle and we’re knee-deep
in water. I grab enough to drown
the horse that’s having seizures.
First there’s just water, next is
spring water, then natural spring
water, followed by exotic island
spring water. Then we have flavored water and sparkling water
and sparkling water from Italy
and flavored sparkling water, not
to mention flavored vitamin
water and mineral water, with
and without natural and artificial
flavors. Got one of each.
And, just in case that’s not
enough, I also grabbed a handful
of flavored powders and crystals
and powdered spritzers and
other “additives” that give regular
old, bland, nasty tap water some
zip and flavor, and a healthy shot
of sugar. (It’s just expensive KoolAid, right?)
As I say out loud, “Remember,
the goal is to flood the stomach
and float the kidneys,” a young
mother shields her child from me
and starts walking away rather
quickly.
Speaking of flavored sugar
water, we’re in the soda aisle.
Here, my discriminating palette
rules. It’s Squirt, since it is soda
with a drop of grapefruit flavoring, it’s actually “juice.”
Raspberry Snapple anyone? Of
course. Get a six-pack, and half
gallon of Arnold Palmer and a
half gallon of green tea and a half
gallon of regular tea and a couple
gallons of no-calorie, decaf tea so
you can experience the joy of
drinking cold, colored water.
Since we now have enough
fluid to float a drowned, seizureprone horse, we can go ahead
and pay and then bask in the air
conditioning while pondering the
arrival of summer.
(Jon Klusmire of Bishop has
always been a fan of liquid diets
when temperatures top 100.)
The Inyo Register
raise
budget
would bring her compensation
more in line with other elected
officials running financial departments. On Tuesday, she clarified
that her current salary is actually
$7,953 after a recent, across-theboard Cost of Living Adjustment
given to county employees, so
the raise she was seeking was
more like 9 percent.
She also noted that, not counting that COLA, which will bring
her current salary up to $8,122
on July 1, the Treasurer-Tax
Collector has not had a raise
since Nov. 14, 2006. In fact,
McMurtrie said, she and Public
Guardian/Administrator Patricia
Barton are the only two elected
officials to not receive a raise
since 2006.
While she admitted that it is
the elected official’s responsibility to come to the board and ask
for a raise, she said her position
is nevertheless overdue for one.
McMurtrie offered other reasons a pay increase was due.
She told the board that, historically, the Treasurer-Tax
Collector, Assessor and AuditorController salaries were aligned.
The disparity only started growing in the mid-2000s as the latter
two offices received raises and
she didn’t.
In addition to historical precedent, McMurtrie pointed out an
agreement the previous board
signed with the Elected Official
Assistants’ Association that puts
the assistants of the TreasurerTax Collector, Assessor and
Auditor-Controller on the same
salary level.
She also noted that the assistant Treasurer-Tax Collector
position makes 78 percent of her
salary, while other assistants
only make 69 percent what their
department heads do.
McMurtrie also pointed to the
various advancements she’s
made in the Treasurer-Tax
Collector’s office since being
elected, including offering credit
card payments, automating various services and transitioning to
full online banking – all while
maintaining the average annual
collection rate of 98 percent that
her predecessor established.
She said the assistant’s position is currently vacant and has
been for some time, so the county could offset a pay increase
through those savings, although
she will at some point have to fill
the position.
County’s educational network
under a contract whereby the
ICOE provides business services and fiscal oversight to
the
innercity
facilities.
Therefore, attendance numbers at the charter schools are
counted as part of Inyo
County’s total, and local
schools benefit from related
funding and other pots of
money originating at the Los
Angeles charters.
According
to
Superintendent of Schools Dr.
Terry McAteer, Inyo County
being able to benefit financially from the arrangement with
the charter schools was the
motivating factor in contracting with them.
For example, the state provides the charter schools with
about $1.1 million in Special
Education funds. The students
there range in age from 16 to
24 and “very few have Special
Ed needs,” McAteer said.
McAteer has previously
described the charter school
students as high school dropouts and at-risk youth being
given their last chance at a
high school education.
By law, a school must have
an Individualized Education
Plan developed for each special needs student. If they
don’t have the IEP, “we can’t
spend” the money on them,
McAteer said.
That leaves about $500,000
in unspent Special Education
funds for Inyo County, where
the six school districts use
that money to help cover their
excess Special Education costs,
he said.
Specific uses for that
$500,000 are primarily administrative and include: managing the Infant and Preschool
Program for Handicapped
Youth; managing the Special
Education Local Plan Area;
providing inservice and oversight to all districts and Special
Education staff; interfacing
with state and regional agencies supplying services to
youth; and funding and managing the Special Ed services of
Inyo’s three charter schools.
The ICOE also uses some of
the $500,000 to employ a
behavior specialist and team
of aides “to deal with elementary behavior issues,” according to a handout provided by
Alisha McMurtrie
Inyo County TreasurerTax Collector
Although several supervisors
praised McMurtrie’s work and
thanked her for her dedication,
they still had trouble with the
timing.
“For an elected official, it’s
never a good time to come and
ask for a salary increase … but to
continue the disparity is not a
good option,” McMurtrie said.
She added, “It’s in the press
that we have a deficit – we always
have a deficit.”
Supervisor Mark Tillemans
said he wasn’t comfortable giving someone a raise just to make
his or her salary the same as
somebody else’s because that’s
what was done historically.
Tillemans did ask McMurtrie
if she found any disparity
between her current salary and
the salaries of other TreasurerTax Collectors in the 15-county
survey conducted last year,
which he said was the disparity
that mattered to him.
She said no, but also reminded the board she feels the survey
is not a true apples-to-apples
comparison of offices, since job
descriptions and workloads vary
county to county.
Tillemans said 9 percent –
which McMurtrie explained was a
1 percent increase for every year
she didn’t get a raise – is a significant increase all at once.
McMurtrie countered that she
was sure in those nine years,
every other elected official
besides her and Barton had
received multiple raises.
Nevertheless, at Tillemans’
urging, McMurtrie said she was
open to a smaller increase.
“Is there room for compromise? There’s always room for
compromise,” she said. “But I do
believe this position is long overdue for a raise.”

therapist and occupational

districts.
The ICOE additionally uses
Special Ed dollars to fund and
manage the North Star
Counseling Center, which was
originally funded by a twoyear start-up grant that
expired. In 2014-15, the ICOE
used $65,000 in Special
Education Local Plan Area
Mental Health grant funding to
keep it open.
The center provides free
counseling services, rendered
by interns, to students, their
families and the public at large.
McAteer conceded the students do not have to be in
Special Ed but noted the ICOE
uses Special Ed dollars because
they might one day end up in
Special Ed.
The ICOE also receives
Average Daily Attendance revenue from the state based on
how many students are attending the charter schools.
According to McAteer, whenever he budgets this money,
he makes sure it is a one-time
expense because his theory is
that the charter schools can be
lost at any time.
Current enrollment at the
charter schools is at 2,100.
The state pays $250 per student, giving Inyo County a
total of $525,000 in ADA revenue from those schools. (Inyo
County receives an additional
$600,000 or so in ADA funds
based on the local school
enrollment.)
None of it will be going to
the charter schools in 2015-16.
McAteer said where he spends
the ADA money from the charter schools depends on the
needs that are presented year
to year.
In 2015-16, McAteer plans
to spend the charter schools’
ADA money to fund 50 percent of Lo-Inyo Middle School’s
new science center ($200,000)
and 50 percent to fund Bishop
Union High School’s new technology center ($300,000).
The ICOE does spend 70 to
80 percent of its Charter
School Business Services
Revenue on the charter
schools, according to McAteer.
The ICOE stands to bring in
$978,000 in the 2015-16 budget by charging the schools a 5
percent fee for providing those
business services.
The vast majority, McAteer
said, is spent on providing the
business services for 25 sites
and 190 employees.
The ICOE also fiscally manages breakfast and lunch pro-
grams at all 25 sites; funds the
Rancho Cucamonga Charter
business office staff and site;
funds stipends for the ICOE
Business Services Division;
funds travel costs for ICOE
board members, McAteer and
staff to visit the schools; funds
two staff positions at the
YouthBuild main office; funds
college trips for charter sites;
funds YouthBuild staff appreciation activities and awards;
and funds YouthBuild visits to
the Sierra Adventure Center.
In 2015-16, the ICOE will
also be using some of the proceeds to reseal the parking
lots of its Independence and
Bishop offices ($10,000) and
install a new countywide Voice
Over Internet Protocol phone
system ($50,000). Board member David Hefner, in one of the
few instances a board member
spoke during the budget discussion, noted the VOIP is
expected to result in substantial cost savings, as much as
50 percent.
Aside from the programs
and projects funded with charter school money, the ICOE
will be working with a $5.8
million General Fund balance
in 2015-16 to cover the lion’s
share of expenditures. The balance, according to McAteer,
shows an increase of $19,803
over last fiscal year.
Of the 72 programs and
projects listed on a handout
provided by McAteer, 34 cost
less than $1,000 – excluding
labor costs – and 10 are funded by the state as mandates
that must be carried out by the
ICOE. Two are grant-funded.
Other General Fund expenditures range from $2,000 for
an “Eighth Grade Day” at Cerro
Coso College, to $60,000 for
the Inyo Council for the Arts’
to coordinate arts education
(under the direction of new
School Arts Coordinator Debbe
Eilts, who has apparently
replaced Liz McAteer), to
$200,000 to help the Big Pine
Unified School District build a
new preschool since the current site has been declared
non-compliant with state
earthquake standards.
More details about the
General Fund programs and
projects will appear next week
in The Inyo Register.
Tristan’s Story
On March 23, at about 5:25 p.m., we got a phone call that no parent wants to
get. Our 12-year-old son, Tristan, had been badly hurt in a bicycle accident.
He told us he was having trouble walking and breathing. Our hearts sank –
we rushed to pick him up and took him straight to Northern Inyo Hospital’s
(NIH) emergency room.

or assistance with the VA CHOICE Program!
Thank you for your service to our country!
Tristan was admitted to NIH for about a week. From our first encounter at the
ER, we knew we were in good hands. In our rush to get to the hospital, we
left Tristan’s insurance card behind, but the ER clerk straightened everything
out – this was so reassuring in a time of crisis. The doctor and surgeon were
professional and caring, plus they spoke to our son in his own language, in a
way he could understand, and they explained everything.
Every step of the way, everyone was so involved – CT Scan, X-Ray, Respiratory, Nursing and Dietary – literally a whole team of skilled people working
with us to help our son get better. The NIH healthcare team also took care of
our family, as well. Their skill and compassion alleviated our fears, giving us a
sense of comfort.
Our son is doing great now – thanks to everyone at NIH. We are proud of our
community hospital and would recommend it as the healthcare provider of
choice to our friends and family.
We want to send a big thank you to all of the wonderful staff that helped our
family. We won’t forget you.

Before summer vacation,
Owens Valley School students
in the third and fourth grades
received an introduction to
birding from Bart Godett of
the Eastern Sierra Audubon
Society.
According to teacher Rose
Todd, Birds in the Schools
Program was offered to
acquaint students with the
common birds of the Owens
Valley. It consisted of one
classroom session and one
field trip for each participating class. Prior to the field
trips, Godett, an Audubon
volunteer,
presented
a
PowerPoint
presentation
about birds’ adaptations,
migration and habitats.
Students then had an opportunity to discuss, share their
own experiences and ask
questions.
According to Todd, the
class field trip was to the
Upper
Gray
Meadow
Campground
out
of
Independence for maximum
viewing of birds. Audubon
provided child-size binoculars and training in their
proper use for each student
during the field trips and
students learned about and
used birding field guides.
The students saw a dozen
different birds, a deer eating
on Rose hips, lizards and
identified numerous plants.
Todd’s class thanked Mr.
Godett for taking time away
from his busy job to offer
“this stupendous program”
to the students.

Bishop businessman Jose
“Jay” Jiminez was placed on
five years of formal felony
probation during a sentencing hearing this week and
ordered to serve 240 days in
the Inyo County Jail for
embezzling from a nowdeceased client who had
given him power of attor-
ney.
According to District
Attorney
Tom
Hardy,
Jiminez must serve an actual
90 days, and may apply for
electronic monitoring for
the balance of his sentence.
The court set restitution
in
the
amount
of
$79,449.76.
Jiminez is also forbidden
from acting as a fiduciary
and from managing money
or property on behalf of
other individuals during the
term of his probation, and
may not engage in the tax
preparation
business,
according to Hardy.
The case against Jiminez
originated in August 2012,
when the Ombudsman’s
Office received a complaint
on behalf of the victim and a
criminal investigation was
initiated by the Bishop Police
Department.
The investigation discovered that in November 2011
Jiminez was granted power
of attorney by the victim in
the case. This gave Jimenez
access to the victim’s bank
and credit card accounts,
Hardy said.
“Jimenez used the power
of attorney to pay bills for
the victim; but he also used
the accounts to fund his
businesses, Jimenez Tax
Chatsworth until 1960 when
her family moved to South
Lake Tahoe. There she
attended and graduated from
South Tahoe High School.
She later moved to Southern
California where she married, had and raised her family. She moved to the Owens
Valley in 1996 from Antelope
Valley.
Diane loved people, animals and spending time with
her family, especially her
grandchildren. She worked at
the Lone Pine Mobil for many

In March 2012, Jimenez
also sold the victim’s mobile
home for $40,000. Jimenez
received $17,000 and a 2004
Hummer valued at approximately $23,000. Hardy said
he apparently pocketed the
cash – records indicate it
was not deposited into any
account owned by the victim
– and took possession of the
Hummer.
Jiminez had previously
entered a “no contest” plea
to a felony embezzlement
charge.

From the Pulpit
Curry and
James
The NBA finals will be
complete upon your reading
of this article. I am intentionally writing it before the outcome to comment on incredible gifts of athleticism.
You may not be a fan of
the NBA or of basketball, for
that matter. You may like
hockey, baseball, football,
art, music or hiking much
more than basketball.
Athletic gifts are from God
whether people worship God
or not. Curry shoots threepointers like there is no
tomorrow and James drives
to the basket in authority
unlimited. Lebron James is
called the best player and
Golden State Warriors the
best team in the Golden
State. Each offers the fan
opportunities for maximum
applause.
Whoever has won championships must at some time
bow down before the Giver
of all gifts. He who is the tallest becomes the smallest for
you. He who made sky and
sea became the One who died
on the tree. There He
absorbed all your guilt, pride,
lust, idolatry and everything
you have committed and
omitted. When we are at our
worst, He is at His best.
When you go astray, and you
do an awful lot, remember in
Him you have everything that
God has taught: amazing
grace. On the cross two
unnoted stars died next to
Him. One unknown star said
“No” to Jesus, the other “yes”
Rev. Kent Puls
Columnist
by the power of the Holy
Spirit. Lebron James and
Stephen Curry are dominant
talent but their strength
comes from the Lord who
made heaven and earth. May
our confidence be in Him for
temporal life and everlasting
life. When we know the only
Star, the Son of God, our
lives take the shape of poetry
in motion and service to
neighbor.
See you Sunday.

By the Creek
Grow up
humbly
By Sarah Bradfield
On my last birthday, I
couldn’t help but feel I was
at a crossroads. Am I an
adult? If yes, when did this
momentous occasion occur?
I began facetiously asking
friends, “When did you feel
like you were finally an
adult?” only to be met with
chuckles and knowing nods.
C.S. Lewis said, “Critics who
treat ‘adult’ as a term of
approval, instead of as a
merely descriptive term cannot be adult themselves.”
Becoming spiritually mature
appears to be a growing
appreciation of how little one
knows while craving to
increase in knowledge of
Christ and application of His
Word. Christians are to have
a childlike dependence upon
God while simultaneously
maturing. These ideas are
not mutually exclusive; they
work in tandem in a humble
spirit.
The disciples, who shooed
away the children from coming to Christ, behaved childishly when they argued
amongst themselves who the
greatest was. Jesus’ response
was to bring forth a child
and use him as the example
of greatness. In God’s economy “ … let the greatest
among you become as the
youngest, and the leader as
one who serves.” Beginning
with that spirit of humility
opens the door for maturity.
Yet how does one reconcile
Christ’s esteem for children
in this passage with other
scriptures which tell us to
not think like a child, to not
remain living on milk like a
child, and to ultimately give
up childish ways?
My argument is being
childlike doesn’t equate with
being childish. The church
demonstrates its childish
thinking and behavior when
it is tumultuously tossed to
and fro by whatever doctrine
suits their liking, ultimately
forsaking their ability to
mature. In Luke 7, Christ
describes the people of His
generation like children. The
religious leaders were in one
breath condemning John the
Baptist for being too ascetic
and in the other condemning
Christ for being a glutton
and drunkard. Christ characterizes them as children
singing a song of derision,
“We played the flute for you,
and you did not dance; we
sang a dirge, and you did not
weep.” Jesus was describing
a child who wants others to
“dance to their tune.” Those
who were excellent at keeping the law were impossible
to please.
So the impetus of maturity is a humble and contrite
heart. From there, the power
of the Holy Spirit along with
knowledge of the Word is
able to work. Then we are
transformed by the renewing
of our minds. We put on
love. We endure suffering.
We become an effectual doer
of the Word. We attain the
unity of the faith. Step by
step the Lord is refining,
molding, and pruning us to
perfection. And yet, Jesus in
His last hours, cried out,
“Abba! Father!” He addresses
the Father as Abba which
communicates intimacy and
dependence. In whatever circumstance we find ourselves
in, may our reliance upon the
Father be evident!
Unfortunately, I never
received a sufficient answer
about when I will really feel
like a grown-up. Yet I believe
that regardless of how many
milestones of adulthood I
complete, that isn’t where
my maturity lies. It lies in
being teachable and then taking what I’ve learned to teach
others.
“The fear of the Lord is
the beginning of knowledge;
fools despise wisdom and
instruction” (Proverbs 1:7).
Grow up humbly because
there is no other way you
can.

Make up
your mind
The potential for greatness and success has been
with you from the very
beginning of your life.
Those that have harkened
to the still, small voice within them have prospered in
many ways. Dreams and
ideas have filtered through
their minds and they have
acted on them and brought
forth something new and
valuable. Those that failed
to act stayed in the same
place or less. Always there
is decision. We all have the
power of choice. We may
become decisive or we
become fearful of decision,
but that is still a decision.
Mentally, it takes the
same amount of mental
activity to fail as it does to
succeed. In Religious
Science we say, “There is
only One Mind and that is
the Mind of God, and we are
all using It.” We are all
using the same mind, but
many use It negatively. Failure is the success of
the indecisive mind. Robert
Schuller said, “Those who
fail to plan, plan to
fail.” Likewise; with choice,
“Those that fail to choose,
choose to let others choose
for them.” Raymond Charles
Barker says, “Indecision is
actually the individual’s
decision to fail.”
Paul said, “When I was a
child, I spoke as a child, I
understood as a child, I
thought as a child: but when
I became a man, I put away
childish things.” It is normal
for a child to let others
make many of the choices
for them, but when you
come into the knowledge of
the Intelligence within you,
it is time to become decisive. It is fine to consult
with others, and even listen
to their advice, but the final
decision and the action to
follow come through you.
Life responds to your decisions by corresponding.
Some people are indecisive all of their lives, not
knowing what to do or
when to do it. Whether
there was parental domination or some other reason a
child is not permitted to
make decisions is usually
the cause, but regardless,
indecision can be overcome. It takes work, but it is
well worth it, and you will
Rev. Walt Sharer
Columnist
finally be what you can be,
and not leaning on the consciousness of others.
Originality of thought
awaits your call. You exist
in and are part of the originating universal Mind. Once
you declare that you are
spiritually equipped to be
an original thinker, ideas
will come to your mind.
Even if these ideas don’t fit
your usual way of thought,
do not reject them! All of
the law and order is available to you.
The use of affirmations
is a powerful tool in becoming decisive. Some examples
are: “I know what I need to
know at the instant I need
to know it,” “Original thinking pervades my consciousness, and I am correctly
decisive in all matters,”
“Infinite Intelligence in me
knows what to do, and this
knowledge is mine at every
instant.”
Personally, anytime I was
utilizing affirmations, I
would write them down on
3X5 cards and tape them
where I would most likely
see them on at least a daily
basis. Say them aloud to
yourself for the best effect.

Destiny is in
His hands
Sometimes the only way we
will open our eyes to what God
is willing to do for us is to be
in a position where we realize
we can no longer do for ourselves. For many that is called
hitting bottom. James acknowledges this when he writes to
the persecuted church. But he
does not stop with the recognition that it can happen. Given
what has been discussed so far
concerning the state of the
human heart, he seems to
regard hitting bottom as inevitable for many of us. His
advice when it does come,
would shock most of us. “Hit
bottom, and cry your eyes out.
The fun and games are over.
Get serious, really serious”
(James 4:9).
How serious? And in what
way? “Get down on your knees
before the Master.” Why? “It’s
the only way you’ll get on your
feet” (James 4:10).
Whoa! The first act we are
supposed to do when we hit
bottom is to throw ourselves at
the feet of God? We are supposed to trust God in order to
get our lives straightened out?
Well, yeah! Before anyone
decides to laugh that idea off,
there are other worthwhile
questions that need to be
asked. Just who was in charge
when you hit bottom? When
you were in control, how was
that working out for you?
Let me apologize. I was too
direct. James made his point in
quite another way. He got practical about who is really in control. “And now I have a word
for you who brashly announce,
‘Today – at the latest, tomorrow – we’re off to such and
such a city for the year. We’re
going to start a business and
make a lot of money.’ You
don’t know the first thing
about tomorrow. You’re nothing but a wisp of fog, catching
a brief bit of sun before disappearing” (James 4:13-14).
Catch that? As much as we
Columnist
plan, as much as we think we
have our course plotted and
laid in, we have no control over
outside circumstances. We cannot fully dictate our lives, even
less so the lives of others,
though their actions may
directly impact our own.
Plainly put, “God is in charge
of deciding human destiny.
Who do you think you are to
meddle in the destiny of others” (James 4:12)? Hmm, I
guess James was being direct.
Thing is, James did not really let up. He ended this section
of his letter pounding his
points home. Being full of oneself is wrong. Knowingly and
deliberately being full of oneself is even more so. Break that
cycle of self-gratification and
self-importance by forming a
new habit. Put God first. As
was already said, “Trust God
from the bottom of your heart;
don’t try to figure out everything on your own. Listen for
God’s voice in everything you
do, everywhere you go; He’s
the one who will keep you on
track” (Proverbs 3:5-6). God’s
love will never let us down!

12 SATURDAY, JUNE 20, 2015 Men’s health deserves
promotion too
Dear Readers: Happy
Father’s Day tomorrow to all
of the men in our reading
audience who have had the
pleasures and responsibilities
of raising children. This
includes fathers, stepfathers,
grandfathers and those who
have stepped in as father figures for children who need
them. Bless you all. Having a
caring father is not only one
of life’s great joys, but fathers
also are tremendously important to a child’s emotional,
academic and moral development. Studies have shown
that children who maintain
close relationships with loving fathers do better in school
and are more likely to stay off
drugs. Please take the time
today to let yours know you
are thinking of them.
Dear Annie: Please urge
your readers, both male and
female, to pay more attention
to men’s health. Women’s
health gets a great deal of
attention all year, but men’s
health is rarely promoted.
Men’s life expectancy still
lags almost six years behind
women’s. Many women are
negatively affected by men’s
poor health and early deaths.
Women should urge the men
in their lives to get annual
physical checkups at the doctor’s office, eat better and get
more exercise. And men
should listen to that good
advice.
I am a man who cares
about my health and men’s
health in general. Please help,
Annie. Thanks.
– A Men’s Health
Advocate in Texas
Dear Texas: Your letter is
the perfect reminder on
Father’s Day for all men to
make an appointment for a
KATHY & MARCY
full medical checkup. Schedule
that prostate exam or colonoscopy you’ve been putting off.
Get a gym membership and
use it, play basketball with
some friends, or take a
30-minute walk each day. Pay
attention to what you eat. The
women in your lives want you
to be around for a long time.
Dear Annie: I am responding to “Evil Stepmother,”
whose husband didn’t want
to attend his daughter’s wedding because he wasn’t going
to walk her down the aisle.
We had the same situation.
My stepdaughter called her
father to tell him that her
maternal grandfather was
going to give her away. For
three weeks, my husband
struggled with whether or not
to attend and finally decided
to not go because it would
have been too painful for him.
I would have supported either
decision. But three years later,
his daughter humbly came to
visit and explain that her
mother had pushed her to do
this and begged her father’s
forgiveness.
When my daughter married, she faced this same
choice. What she decided, all
on her own, brought tears to
our eyes. Both her father and
her stepfather walked her
down the aisle, one on each
arm. It was beautiful and
respectful. This special day
should not be used to lash
out.
– Vermont Lady
Dear Vermont: Many readers mentioned that brides
could have both the father
and stepfather walk them
down. Others suggested having the stepfather walk the
bride halfway and the father
the rest of the way (or vice
versa). These are wonderful
solutions. Weddings should
bring families together, not
drive them further apart.
Annie’s Snippet for
Father’s Day:
“My father used to say that
it’s never too late to do anything you wanted to do. And
he said, ‘You never know what
you can accomplish until you
try.’”

typically orderly Lamb. Try to
look for a less intricate way to
accomplish the same goals.
TAURUS (April 20 to

EASTERN SIERRA HISTORY
13
The well-dressed woman on the trail
The first rays of sun touch a
Sierra peak; on the edge of a
meadow backpackers stir, pulling on their clothes for another
day on the trail. There are jeans,
tank tops, plaid shirts, rugged
pants with multitudinous packets, moisture wicking underlayers, T-shirts bearing cryptic
messages, even a few hardy
souls in shorts, assured the cool
of the morning will quickly dissipate. We notice oddities in
costume: an Englishman wearing a tie, leg warmers, flip-flops
with socks. What we do not consciously notice is that women
and men are wearing the same
things; long before fashion
designers discovered unisex,
backpackers arrived at that
practical conclusion.
Marty Voght
Columnist
A century ago things were
quite different. Back then, when
men and boys gathered at trolley stops to catch a flash of
sensuous ankle, what women
wore in the mountains brought
on serious discussions. How
could a female keep her modesty, yet travel securely on Sierra
trails?
The clothing problem began
in 1841, when the first AngloAmerican woman, Nancy Kelsey,
crossed the Sierra Nevada. We
have no record of her costume,
but since she survived, we can
be sure it was not the outdoor
costume of the lady of fashion
at that time: corset, camisole,
drawers down to her ankles and
five petticoats covered by a
dress that brushed the floor,
plus bonnet and shawl.
Some women bound for
California in the Gold Rush
noted in their diaries that they
had shortened their skirts to
“wash-day” length, a few inches
off the ground, to prevent wear
and tear on the hem. But many a
female arrived in Sacramento
with tattered skirts exposing an
unladylike expanse of shin.
Mountain-bound women got
a new choice in the 1850s, when
Amelia Bloomer popularized the
outfit named for her: trousers
worn under a skirt reaching
slightly below the knee. Bloomer
costumes were not uncommon
on the overland trails. Their
chief disadvantage came from
the ridicule they elicited from
young men and boys on street
corners, and righteous condemnation from pulpits. Regardless,
the Bloomer hung on among
active women and remained the
model for female mountaineering garb for more than 50
years.
In 1901, William E. Colby
became the arbiter for women’s
clothing in the Sierra. Colby
organized the first Sierra Club
outing, and as leader had to
advise participants on proper
dress. His outings bulletins
unwittingly chronicle a revolution in women’s wear.
According to Colby’s notice
for the first Sierra Club high
trip, women should have two
long-sleeved blouses, a sturdy
one for tramping through the
high country and a lighter one
for wearing around camp. Kneehigh, lace-up boots were to meet
dark-colored bloomers (now
meaning full pants). Over the
bloomers he advised that
Madame Hiker wear a skirt “not
more than halfway from knee to
ankle,” or, if she planned to ride
a horse, a divided skirt. “It would
be unsafe to ride otherwise than
astride on portions of the trip
and no side saddles will be provided.”
All participants needed a
broad brimmed hat, but women
were to add a heavy veil to protect their faces from unladylike
sunburn. Since women at the
turn of the 20th century piled
their long hair atop their heads,
these large hats were secured by
hat pins thrust through the
crown and the mass of hair.
Colby suggested that women
might want low shoes to wear
around camp, but in that case
they should also wear leggings,
tubes of stout cotton or light
canvas extending from knee to
shoe. As an alternative, they
might bring puttees, a strip of
cloth wound around the lower
leg, which had a tendency to
loosen and unwind, settling
around the foot like a friendly
snake.
Obviously, in 1901, no
woman was expected to travel
light. Fortunately, on the Sierra
Club trips, mules toted the luggage, and more fortunately still,
a Chinese laundryman accompanied the group.
Colby’s choice of words concerning skirt length proved confusing. By “no more than halfway from knee to ankle,” did he
mean, 1) no shorter than halfway to the knee to mitigate male
palpitations, or 2) no longer
than halfway to the ankle so the
wearer did not tread on her hem
on steep trails? In 1903 he clarified the matter by advising
skirts “not many inches below
the knee.”
For years this seemed to be
the accepted mode of dress for
women in the Sierra. They hiked
the trails of Tuolumne Meadows
in long-sleeved blouses, climbed
Mount Whitney in skirts, and
ascended the glaciers of Mount
Lyell shadowed by thick veils.
But there are hints in the outings bulletins of problems
caused by women’s fashions.
First came the thundering
directive, THERE SHALL BE NO
HAT PINS IN DUNNAGE BAGS!
What happened the previous
A 1902 Sierra Club High Trip included men in pants and jackets and
women in long shirts and blouses, their long hair piled on top of
year to bring about such an
emotional outburst? The trip
reports contain not a whisper,
but the mind whirls with possibilities. Was an innocent packer
disemboweled as he tossed duffle? Did a mule fly down the
Kern River Canyon, bucking and
screaming, spilling sugar and
beans in a futile attempt to
escape a dagger in his ribs?
Whatever occurred, it burned in
the memory of beholders, for
well into the 1920s every outings bulletin warned of HAT
PINS IN DUNNAGE BAGS.
By this time photos from
High Trips show svelte flappers,
hair so minimal there was nothing for a hat pin to grab, but
Colby took no chances.
Early in the second decade of
Sierra Club outings comes a hint
of near disaster on a mountain,
for in 1914 Colby suggests that
knickerbockers replace bloomers and skirts. Knickers were
“essential for the more difficult
mountain climbs where skirts
are dangerous to wear.”
Did some poor woman entangle herself in her voluminous
skirt while attempting Mount
Brewer on the 1913 outing? Or
did some unfortunate man step
on dragging fabric on the way
down, and suddenly find his
legs pulled out from under him?
The mind conjures scenarios,
none of them pleasant to contemplate.
Once Colby mentioned knickers, the floodgates seemed to
open and the leader lost all control. By 1920 he had to admit
that many women wore knickers for the entire trip “to the
exclusion of skirts.” For the following eight or nine years skirts
glided in and out of the clothing
lists, like ghostly wraiths, some
years dead and gone, in others
recommended if they came
“only a few inches below the
knee.”
During this same period the
Chinese laundryman seems to
have found a better job, and
their heads in buns.

As leader and organizer of the first Sierra Club outings, William E. Colby, seen here at the club’s headquarters in Yosemite in 1898, became the arbiter for women’s clothing in the Sierra. His outings bulletins unwittingly chronicle a revolution in women’s wear.
Photo by Ansel Adams/courtesy Yosemite National Park
women were told to bring their
own “Fels-Naptha” to wash their
clothes.
American enterprise responded quickly to the woman-in-themountains phenomenon and
within a year of the first Sierra
Club trip, businesses began
marketing “outings suits.” They
reflected exactly what the bulletin described: bloomers, longsleeved blouses, and below-theknee skirts. One manufacturer
added a fashionably cut short
coat and a tiny, ridiculous Alpine
bonnet that would have in no
way protected against high altitude sun. Women must have
chosen practicality over fashion,
for soon the “outings suit”
included a wide hat, much like
what rangers now wear. The
models in the ads became more
obviously active, and finally one
appeared with a sheath knife at
her belt and a fishing pole in her
hand.
As the skirt market dried up,
designers tried new approaches.
One company went to the
expense of hiring Gloria Swanson
to model their “outing suit” of
tight breeches, topped with a
long, form-fitting coat that
ended several inches above the
knee. Another designer, hesitant
to dump the skirt entirely, marketed “a good Sierra Hiking
Suit,” complete with sport shirt,
breeches and a skirt that could
do double duty as a cape.
The “outings suit” evaporated in the radiant glow of the
Roaring Twenties, votes for
women and the demise of the
corset. Flappers raised their
skirts to show a great deal of
thigh and donned pants when
the occasion demanded. In photos of mountain trips from the
1920s, no skirts are in sight.
The outings bulletin of 1930
finally abandoned sexual dimorphism in clothing: men and
women were to have a stout hiking outfit, with an extra pair of
trousers or knickers, a flannel
shirt, and a sweater, windproof
jacket or parka.
It had taken 29 years to banish hat pins, dark veils, bloomers, high boots, and skirts from
the wilderness, and no one can
regret their passing. The laundryman, on the other hand, just
might be worth reviving.

and romance novels. She finished her master’s degree in the
history of Western America at
Cali State Northridge, and has

European history at University of
Oxford. She lives in Aspendell.)
In the 1850s, Amelia Bloomer popularized the outfit named for her:
trousers worn under a skirt reaching slightly below the knee.
Bloomer costumes were not uncommon on the overland trails after
that.

By the mid-1920s, women in the outdoors were wearing what men
wore: knickerbockers or trousers, abandoning the convention and
impracticality of skirts altogether.

NOTICE OF PETITION TO ADMINISTER ESTATE OF
RALPH HERBERT RUIZ
Case Number: SICVPB-15-58182
To all heirs, beneficiaries, creditors, contingent creditors, and persons
who may otherwise be interested in the will or estate, or both, of
RALPH HERBERT RUIZ, RALPH H. RUIZ, RALPH RUIZ, “JOE” RUIZ
A Petition for Probate has been filed by Edward J. Ruiz in the
Superior Court of California, County of Inyo.
The Petition for Probate requests that Edward J. Ruiz be appointed as
personal representative to administer the estate of the decedent.
The petition requests the decendent!s will and codicils, if any, be
admitted to probate. The will and any codicils are available for examination in the file kept by the court.
The petition requests the authority to administer the estate under the Independent Administration of Estates Act. (This authority will allow the
personal representative to take many actions without obtaining court
approval. Before taking certain very important actions, however, the personal representative will be required to give notice to interested persons
unless they have waived notice or consented to the proposed action.)
The independent administration authority will be granted unless an interested person files an objection to the petition and shows good cause
why the court should not grant the authority.
A hearing on the petition will be held in this court as follows:
Date: JULY 10, 2015
Time: 9:00AM Dept. 1.
ADDRESS OF COURT:
Superior Court of California, County of Inyo
168 North Edwards Street
Post Office Box “U”
Independence Branch
If you object to the granting of the petition, you should appear at the
hearing and state your objections or file written objections with the court
before the hearing. Your appearance may be in person or by your
attorney.
If you are a creditor or a contingent creditor of the deceased, you
must file your claim with the court and mail a copy to the personal
representative appointed by the court within four months from the date
of first issuance of letters as provided in Probate Code section 9100.
The time for filing claims will not expire before four months from the
hearing date noticed above.
You may examine the file kept by the court. If you are a person interested in the estate, you may file with the court a Request for Special
Notice (form DE-154) of the filing of an inventory and appraisal of estate
assets or of any petition or account as provided in Probate Code section
1250. A Request for Special Notice form is available from the court
clerk.

The author’s son Kevin admiring Half Dome from the summit of North Dome in Yosemite National
Park.
Photos by Craig Jackson
Heading down from the flat area to the rounded summit of North Dome.
Sierra Sojourns
Great valley views from North Dome
(Hiked on Aug. 28, 2014)
Most people would
probably agree that Half
Dome is the main attraction and most photographed object in all of
Yosemite. But the main
trail to the summit of Half
dome is an immensely
popular trail to a impressive monolith visible from
just about every spot in
the park.
The main trail to its
summit is always crowded
in the summer as is the
trailhead in busy Yosemite
Valley. If you’re looking
for a fantastic view of Half
Dome, Cloud’s Rest and
Yosemite Valley, without
having to deal with the
vacation crowds, the hike
to North Dome should be
considered wholeheartedly.
To reach the trailhead
from Lee Vining, drive
west on California State
Route 120 for 22 miles, or
13.6 miles west of the
Tuolomne Meadows
Visitor Center to the
Porcupine Creek Trailhead
parking area on the left.
As with other trailheads
on Tioga Pass Road, this
one can be tough to find
if not paying attention.
Look for a restroom and a
large wooden trailhead
sign.
Start hiking on a wide
lumber road that initially
descends for a few hundred yards until it turns
Craig Jackson
Columnist
into the signed Porcupine
Creek Trail at a junction
with other trails heading
east and west.
Continue ahead in a
southerly direction
through a thick, beautiful
forest of pine and majestic red fir. These are
almost the same as
Douglas fir but the bark is
red in color. The hike continues now on a somewhat-level trail about a
mile-and-a-half before
coming to another junction.
The Snow Creek Trail
veers left to Yosemite
Valley through Tenaya
Canyon; stay to the right
to a second junction a few
yards ahead. The right
fork goes down to
Yosemite Falls but you’ll
take the trail to the left
that starts a moderate
uphill climb on Indian
Ridge. Cross a small
stream, turn left and
climb up the hillside on
well-marked trail to a saddle on Indian Ridge and
another junction at three
miles in.
Go left at the marked
junction to visit the magnificent Indian Ridge
Natural Arch at 8,500 feet,
which just happens to be
the only natural arch in
Yosemite. It’s a short,
steep quarter-mile diversion hike to this incredible
rock formation, do not
miss it.
Return back to the trail
junction, turn left and
start the last 1.5 miles to
North Dome. The trail now
makes its way up and the
trees clear as you reach a
flat area. For some people
it’s easy to think this
clear, rounded granite
area is North Dome, but it
is not, North Dome is
down there!
Look for a large tree on
the left and the trail right
next to it as it heads
steeply downhill from
Indian Ridge.
After hiking down a few
hundred feet through
some low brush on the
eastern side of the ridge
above Tenaya Canyon, the
trail now makes a pretty
straight shot onto the
northern granite stretch
of North Dome, dropping
more than 600- feet in the
process. Eventually you’ll
reach a small saddle
between North Dome and
Indian Ridge where you
are only one-quarter mile
and 100 feet below North
Dome. Climb up this short
incline and then prepare
yourself for some breathtaking, unobstructed
360-degree views of
Yosemite.
Find a perfect spot atop
North Dome, break out
the lunch and soak in the
sweeping vistas of Half
Dome across Tenaya
Canyon, Cloud’s Rest to
its left, Glacier Point due
south, Merced Canyon to
its left and Yosemite
Valley directly below to
the right. After spending
quality time and taking
plenty of pictures from
North Dome, return the
same way you came but
remember there will be
some uphill hiking on the
return.
At a glance:
• 8.8 miles round trip
to North Dome; add a
half-mile to Indian Arch
• 650 feet of elevation
gain but there are plenty
of ups and downs in
between and on the
return; save some energy
for the hike back to the
trailhead
• Parts of trail exposed
to sun, apply plenty of
sunscreen
• Bring your camera
and take plenty of memorable pictures
• Whoa Nellie Deli has
great food and fun if
returning back towards
Lee Vining and U.S.
Highway 395

reader reflections
Flash, boom, swooshshshsh!
May 22, 2015
One of the most wonderful sights and
sounds in the High Sierra is the thunderstorm.
As a devoted long-range forecaster, I expect we
will see more than usual thunderstorm activity
in the three months ahead. Actually I first
thought this back in December.
Some long-range forecasts are made on the
basis of ocean temperatures; others on the
basis of statistical patterns over the calendar
years. I rely on the latter. Eventually the patterns of atmospheric water movements over
the globe and time have to balance out. Drought
is balanced by floods elsewhere as we have
seen lately. No surprise.
Drought is also balanced by future storm
periods as I think we are beginning to see now.
This does not mean our drought is ending, nor
that water shortages are no longer a serious
problem. In our world over time both are the
norm, made worse by global warming and
population growth.
A little basic meteorology: thunderstorms
usually occur in the afternoon or early evening
and also in the middle of the night. Both timings are the result of a steep temperature
“lapse rate” with altitude. In other words, air
near the earth surface is warmer than usual
relative to air in the upper atmosphere (troposphere). This can happen because the earth
surface gets hot during the day or because the
upper atmosphere cools a lot during the
night.
I have experienced night storms both in the
High Sierra and driving across Nebraska. In
Nebraska the rain was coming down so fast, it
was hard to tell where the pavement was.
However, the storms cleared, and in the early
morning the wet green hills and glowing pink
highway across Iowa provided one of the most
beautiful experiences I have ever had.
So, don’t fear the flash or flee the swoosh
and its beautiful aftermath. Go prepared for
heavy, usually brief rain. Be careful where you
pitch your tent. A seemingly shallow basin can
flood your tent in the middle of the night. I’ve
seen it happen to a famous meteorologist, also
inexperienced camper, and his family at Upper
Lamarck Lake.
Lightning requires some discipline. I have
turned back short of the summit plateau on Mt.
Darwin. The flash never came, but that same
day two people were killed by lightning on the
cable route on Half Dome in Yosemite.
Of course, lightning may strike a tall tree,
and you don’t want to be under a large limb
that comes crashing down.
There are many kinds of lightning and electrical displays. Over the years in the highcountry you may see an amazing variety of phenomena. This is one reason I prefer to spend the
night in a clear plastic tube rather than a tent.
I have seen some amazing things my neighbors have missed, like bright balls of electricity
rolling along a ridgetop while camped along
Rush Creek.

CHSRA 2015 Finals rocks the week
The best in high
school rodeo
take the
fairgrounds by
storm
By Louis Israel
Register Staff
This week, the finest of
California’s high school cowboys and cowgirls came to
Bishop to ride, rope, cut, tie
and wrestle at the Fairgrounds
to determine the state’s best
in rodeo.
Unless you’ve been under
a rock, or barricaded in front
of a 15,000 BTU air conditioner in your home, you’ve
seen these teens and their
families in town, some in
hotels, some camped out at
the fairgrounds, shopping at
Schat’s and Vons, strolling
and biking up Main Street.
They’re tough to miss, these
youngsters have a certain
swagger to them, something
uniquely American, something brash but unfailingly
polite, something that combines charm and bravado and
humility. It’s hard to say
where it comes from, but perhaps it is learned from growing up with all the unspoken
understanding it takes to
both discipline – and yes,
even dominate – great animals in the sporting arena,
while also caring for them,
seeing first-hand what it
means for humans to need
animals for our way of life.
Thursday, the Second Gos
ended and yesterday (too late
for press time) the top 15 in
each event faced off in ShortGos to decide the winners
and top fours who move on
to National Finals. Yesterday
too, the new Rodeo Queen
was coronated, all the interviews and modeling completed much earlier in the week.
The Special Rodeo was on
Thursday,
followed
by
Cowboy Prom. Student elections and teas and lunches
are done. All that’s left is this
morning’s Awards Breakfast
… and a wait untill next year.
Watching the competitors
in the rodeo ring, taking on
beasts so large and riding so
impressively, it is easy to forget: these are just kids. For
them, the week meant much
more than what was seen
under the lights. For many of
these teens, this week was a
coming of age story, known
to none but themselves.
Walking around the fairgrounds it was easy to see
these kids on their downtime,
developing friendships, flirting, laughing and talking over
ice creams and lemonades, or
just biking around the barns,
trying to look cool like every
other teenager on Earth.
That’s refreshing. These kids
are so poised in the ring, so
intense and professional, one
might think they’ve lost some
childhood innocence to the
rodeo. They haven’t. They
just gained something undefinable that makes them look
a little cooler on their bikes
than the rest of us.

Second Go of the goat tying. Luna’s speedy riding put her into
Friday’s Short Go in barrel racing.

Stop the clock! Jessica Dickens of District 7 doesn’t look like a
rookie as she puts her hands out after tying her goat. Her time was
good enough to put her in the Friday night Short Go.
Kelsey Dickens of District 5 is in control as she flips her goat to the
ground in the goat tying.
Will Centoni of District 4 gets jumped straight into the air but hangs
on to keep his bull ride going Thursday night.
Sabina Andreini of District 4 maintains speed through her dismount in the goat tying. Her excellent
time put her in Friday’s Short Go.
Bishop’s own Kayla Inderbieten leans into a full gallop along a
straightaway in the barrel racing. Her speedy runs put her into the
Short Go on Friday.
Last year’s all around champ and national pole
bending champ Lily Tillery puts her hands in the
air to end her 9.4 second First Go. The competition was stiff, but she made Friday’s Short Go.
If you’re wondering about Jacob Bairos, the tie down roper on the
front page of Thursday’s Register, his First Go, (the one in the photos) went 21.87 seconds, but he blazed through his Second Go with
an 11.73 which put him in Friday’s Short Go.
David Stark of District 8 throws his hands in the
air 13.89 seconds after starting his tie down roping Go Tuesday morning. His second Go was even
better, 11.84, placing him fourth and moving him
into Friday night’s Short Go.
Westling a steer is about as tough as it gets, especially for a rookie.
Digging in and toughing it out here is District 5’s Ronan Hice.
Sometimes there’s nothing to
do but wait. Hannah Bergman
of District 5 stands over her
goat at the end of Tuesday’s
First Go, hoping the rope
holds.

As a youngster Bruce Ivey’s dream was always to move
to the Eastern Sierra where his father had brought him
fishing many times. So that happened! After two summers
of working for the Department of Fish and Game at the
Whittier Fish Hatchery, he was able to land a full-time job
as a game conservation aid here in the valley trapping
chukar and quail and working with the biologists on the
deer studies. He started the day after he graduated from
high school.
This of course led to his meeting his wife, Elsie, raising
their two children, Steve and Jennifer, and now enjoying
their grandchildren and great-grandchildren who also
live in Independence. He wouldn’t trade it for anything.

Things to consider when looking for a volunteering opportunity

Ideal volunteer opportunities for youngsters
Psychological benefits of giving
Charities often benefit significantly from the
generosity of donors and volunteers. But the
person providing the philanthropy also takes
away something from the experience, and
there actually may be measurable emotional
advantages to being charitable.
Helping others not only makes a person
feel good, but it may also increase physical and
emotional well-being. Several studies have indicated
that being generous has profound effects on how
a person thinks and feels. One such study from
researchers at Cornell University uncovered that
volunteering increases one’s energy, sense of mastery
over life and self-esteem. It also promotes feelings
of positivity, which may strengthen and enhance the
immune system.
In 2008, Dr. Ellen Langer, a professor of psychology
at Harvard University, advocated for giving gifts and
being generous — even in tough financial times.
“When you give a gift it makes you feel generous, it
makes you feel in control, it’s good for your self-esteem, and
it’s good for the relationship,” says Langer.
According to psychologist Robert Ornstein and physician
David Sobel, authors of “Healthy Pleasures,” they talk about
a “helper’s high.” This is a sense of euphoria that volunteers
experience when helping others. It can be described as a sense of
vitality and a warm glow. It has been compared to
a runner’s high and may be attributed to a release
of endorphins.
Various studies have found that donors and
volunteers gain the most from a charitable
encounter.
Here are a few more health benefits that may
result from being altruistic:
• an activation of emotions that are key to good
health,
• lower stress levels,
• longer periods of calm after the generous act,
• improved mood, and
• a potentially longer life span.
There are many ways to give back and experience
these physical and psychological benefits, including:
• sharing experiences at a school,
• volunteering at a hospital,
• volunteering at a national or local park,
• donating unused items, like clothes or cars,
• reading to children at a library,
• helping to care for animals at shelters,
• volunteering at a hospice and comforting those at the end of
their lives,
• donating supplies to a new teacher and
• becoming a companion to a senior citizen.

Getting
Kids
to volunteer
Elementary school children
When kids reach elementary school, parents should
introduce them to volunteering. Volunteering activities for
school-aged kids should be simple, such as accompanying their
parents to food banks where kids can help feed the homeless
and less fortunate. Kids with grandparents living in assisted
living facilities can read to residents at the facility or bring them
homemade arts and crafts or even foods they helped prepare
(just be sure to clear any items with the facility’s medical staff
before distributing). These tasks are simple, and kids won’t feel
nervous when accompanied by Mom and Dad.
Middle school children
When kids reach middle school, they might not feel it’s
necessary for Mom and Dad to tag along as much. This is
perfectly alright, and it’s a great time for kids to branch out
and choose some volunteer activities of their own. Instead
of accompanying kids to the food bank, let them work a shift
on their own. Kids who have been volunteering since early
childhood might have some volunteering goals of their own
olunteering is a great way for people to give back
to their communities. It’s also a great way for
parents to instill character in their children.
When kids volunteer, they learn lessons about
responsibility while also learning how enjoyable it can be
to help the less fortunate. Kids who volunteer early in life
are more likely to do so throughout their lives, and that
lifetime of service can be invaluable. The right volunteering
opportunity for a child often depends on the child’s
age, as some opportunities are better suited to younger
children while others are tailor-made for teenagers. The
following are a few age-appropriate ideas that can help
get kids excited about volunteering and giving back to their
neighborhoods.
by the time they reach middle school, so don’t insist they
continue with current activities if there’s something else
sparking their interest. Kids might want to help an elderly
neighbor around the house, such as shopping for groceries
or taking care of their property. Encourage such ideas, and
expect kids to want to exercise some independence when
they reach middle school.
High school students
High school students tend to have busy schedules, but
those who have been volunteering since childhood will likely
find a way to continue doing so. Teenagers tend to have
more specific interests than younger children, and parents
can encourage teens to incorporate those interests into their
volunteering. For example, kids who love sports might be able
to work with the local sports and recreation center to coach
younger athletes. Or kids who excel in the classroom can tutor
younger students. Volunteering can look good on a high school
student’s resume when the time comes to apply for college, but
parents should be careful that their high school-aged children
don’t stretch themselves too thin with extracurricular activities.
Encourage volunteering but not at the expense of schoolwork.
Many children embrace volunteering, especially when given
the chance to choose how they want to give back to their
communities and the less fortunate.

Make a donation to good health
Blood supplies are at critical levels.
Making a donation can help save a
life.
Charitable giving means different things
to different people. While some associate
donations with money, clothing or other
tangible goods, donations also can include
vital parts of our bodies.
Blood
Blood transfusions and supplementation
are vital to treating injured patients. Blood
also is necessary during routine surgeries.
Having an adequate blood supply at the
ready can be a matter of life and death
for a person in dire need of a transfusion.
Canadian Blood Services, which manages
the national supply of blood and blood
products in Canada, announced during the
summer of 2013 that the country is facing
a “concerning” shortage of blood due to
fewer donations and constant demand. The
story is similar in the United States, where
the American Red Cross reports a blood
donation is needed every two seconds.
Blood is perishable, and the need is
constant. Red blood cells only have a shelf
life of 42 days and platelets just five days,
so supply must be replenished constantly.
Blood can be donated whole or as
plasma or platelets. Plasma is the yellow
fluid in which blood cells are suspended.
Platelets are smaller than white or red
blood cells and help the blood to clot.
Many blood collection centers will tell you
that O blood type is in the highest demand
because O blood, particularly O-negative,
is compatible with all blood types. But
it also is the blood type in the shortest
supply.
Organs
The organization Donate Life America
says nearly 120,000 men, women and
children currently need lifesaving organ
transplants, and every 10 minutes another
name is added to the national organ
transplant waiting list. In addition to organ
transplants, tissue transplants can save
lives.
Certain organs and tissues can be
transplanted from living donors, including
kidneys, liver lobes, lungs, and bone
marrow. The National Living Organ
Donors Foundation, Inc., says living organ
donations can mean a more perfect match
for the recipient, a longer transplant life
and fewer medications. Living donors give
patients an alternative to waiting months or
years on transplant lists.
Men, women and children also can
donate their organs upon their death.
Drivers can declare their intentions to
donate their organs by filling out information
on the backs of their driver’s licenses, and
individuals also can declare such intentions
in their wills.
Hair
Cancer patients facing radiation and
chemotherapy treatments may lose their
hair. Losing one’s hair can affect selfesteem. Certain organizations accept
donations of human hair, which they
fashion into wigs for those who have
lost their own hair to cancer and other
diseases. Burn victims also benefit from
hair donations. The organizations Locks
of Love and Wigs For Kids are two not-forprofit groups providing hair replacement
solutions for those affected by hair loss.
The cosmetic company Pantene has their
own “Beautiful Lengths” donation program
that also accepts hair donations.
In order to donate to most organizations,
a minimum hair length is needed and hair
should be free of permanent color, bleach
or other chemical treatments. Check with
the organization for a full list of guidelines.
Giving a gift of health by way of a blood,
organ or hair donation can make a lasting
difference in another person’s life.
Exploring careers in philanthropy
The growing
number of
nonprofit
organizations
and other
philanthropic
groups has made opportunities for careers
in philanthropy more plentiful. Those with
professional business experience or even
students right out of college often find
opportunities within organizations geared to
giving back.
According to Indiana University-Purdue
University Indianapolis, there are more than
1.4 million nonprofit organizations in the United
States alone. These organizations need
dedicated staff to run their operations, and
employees of such nonprofits often find there
are several advantages to working for charitable
organizations.
• Happier work environments: Working in
philanthropy means improving other people’s
lives. Employees may be happy in their positions
because they realize their work is part of a larger
effort to help the less fortunate. The nonprofit
sector will attract other like-minded people, and
working alongside people with similar interests
can make for a more enjoyable workplace
environment.
• Diverse responsibilities: Nonprofit
operations are generally smaller than many
other companies, and employees often find
themselves with diverse responsibilities and
more direct access to management and other
decision makers. People interested in dabbling
in various parts of a business may find the often
intimate nature of the nonprofit sector an ideal fit.
• Opportunities for travel: Some nonprofits
offer the chance to work outside of the country.
Nonprofit organizations who work across the
globe may help build homes or schools in
less developed countries or establish arts and
education programs in countries where such
opportunities are lacking. A job in the nonprofit
sector may allow people to experience new
cultures and opportunities that may never
present themselves in the private sector.
• Growth opportunities: Wearing a variety
of hats, as many nonprofit employees do on a
regular basis, allows those working at nonprofit
organizations to build their resumes in ways not
available to men and women working at more
structured companies.
People who work in the nonprofit sector often
find that their careers are rewarding for a variety
of reasons.

Volunteers needed to support local fundraising events
The Mammoth Mountain Community Foundation (MMCF)
brings people who love Mammoth together for our kids.
MMCF funds and implements academic, athletic and outdoor
programs that bring children from different backgrounds
together at school and on Mammoth Mountain to learn,
compete, talk, become lifelong friends and realize their full
potential.
In collaboration with Mammoth Mountain Ski Area and the
Mammoth Schools NOW Education Foundation, MMCF has
donated over $1,000,000 to the Mammoth Unified School
District (MUSD) for K-12 education programming since 2010.
This donation helps fund music, art, language and technology
programs as well as the Independent Learning Center (ILC)
at Mammoth High School. With access to flexible academic
scheduling and online classes, ILC students maintain a
high standard of academic achievement while pursuing
extraordinary goals outside the classroom.
In 2015, MMCF is helping over 900 kids get outside in
the mountains, year round. In winter, MMCF provides grants
to ski and snowboard PE programs at schools in Bishop,
Mammoth and Lee Vining and scholarships to Mammoth
Ski and Snowboard Team athletes to help offset the cost
of training and competitions. In summer, MMCF loans road
bikes to young athlete who want to stay fit and engaged
during the summer months.
MMCF hosts fundraisers throughout the year, utilizing
hundreds of volunteer hours to support favorite local events
and raise money for academic and athletic programming.
The Mammoth Invitational in April, Wine Walk in August
as well as the Mammoth Gran Fondo and Kamikaze Bike
Games in September are all fundraisers for MMCF.
MMCF is currently rallying volunteers to help showcase
the Eastern Sierra during the USA Cycling Mtn. Bike
National Championships July 14-19 on Mammoth Mountain.
Volunteers receive a choice of free entry to the Kamikaze
Bike Games in September, Mammoth Wine Walk August 15
or a half price winter lift ticket voucher after volunteering eight
hours.
Volunteers are also needed and being recruited for the
Mammoth Wine Walk, August 15, Mammoth Gran Fondo,
September 11-12 and Kamikaze Bike Games, September
24-27. Earn a free or discounted entry to these events by
giving your time to the Mammoth Mountain Community
Foundation and Mammoth’s children. Our Sign Up Genius
link can be found on the right hand side of our website,
MammothFoundation.org.
How to keep volunteers happy
Volunteers can be the life’s
blood of nonprofit organizations.
Without individuals willing to
donate their time, charities facing
tight budgets may not have
sufficient personnel to achieve
their goals. Organizations who
rely heavily on volunteers can
take the following steps to ensure
their volunteers know their efforts
are appreciated.
Create a welcoming
environment. No matter how
many times a person volunteers,
he or she will feel like the new kid
in town on his or her first day with
a new organization. Make new
volunteers feel welcome, giving
them a guided tour during which
you introduce them to fellow
volunteers and full- or part-time
staff members. An environment
that is warm and welcoming from
the moment a volunteer arrives
will make the experience better
for all involved.
Maintain an open door
policy. Volunteers should feel
comfortable conversing with
executive directors and other
higher-ups at the organization.
Encourage the sharing of ideas,
even with executives high up
on the totem pole. Directors
can meet with staff members
to illustrate how everyone is
working together and no one
carries greater importance than
another in the organization.
Be prepared for volunteers.
Volunteers are giving their time
and expecting nothing in return.
Walking into an office that is not
prepared for a volunteer may
lead the volunteer to view the
organization as unorganized
or one that lacks dedication.
Charities should have a clear plan
in place with regard to the duties
of volunteers. There should be a
desk area or computer available
when necessary. In addition, be
sure to have work immediately
available so the volunteer won’t
be sitting around with little to do.
Clearly spell out time
constraints. Volunteers often find
time to volunteer while juggling
their day jobs and responsibilities
at home, and not everyone
has the same amount of time
available to devote to a charity.
Therefore, being up front with how
much time a project is expected
to take can help a volunteer
gauge if he or she will be able
to assist. Decide how much time
the job will need, and be honest
with potential volunteers during
interviews or when advertising
openings.
Give frequent praise. Let
volunteers know their work is
appreciated. Come up with
ways to show your appreciation,
be it taking volunteers out to
lunch, providing snacks or
other treats around the office or
accommodating their personal
schedules. Each of these efforts
shows volunteers that you have
their best interests in mind.
Provide proof of success.
Keep volunteers informed about
the fruits of their labors. Share
notes of gratitude from those
who have benefitted from your
organization’s efforts with the
staff. Single out volunteers
who played key roles in making
changes happen. Frequent
encouragement and proof of
success will raise spirits and
reassure volunteers that their
efforts are worthwhile.

Caring for the
fundraising events Fairground Appreciation
When one pictures the Eastern Sierra, the
image is filled with stunning vistas - broad
sagebrush steppes bounded by soaring granite
peaks and seemingly endless skies. These open
landscapes we love exist because they are
designated as public lands, unique places where
recreation opportunities abound and plants and
animals thrive without the encroachment of urban
life. The vast majority, 95%, of Inyo and Mono
Counties are made up of public lands, places
where all of us can play, recharge, and escape
into the natural world.
The US Forest Service and the Bureau of Land
Management as well as other agencies work hard
to manage these open spaces, but everyone can
pitch in to ensure that our public lands thrive for
centuries to come. Now in its 29th year, Friends
of the Inyo provides opportunities to discover
and care for the wild beauty of the Eastern Sierra
Nevada. Launched in 1986 with the goal of
providing a voice for the wild lands and wildlife of
the Inyo National Forest, it has evolved to work
for the preservation, exploration, and stewardship
of the Eastern Sierra’s public lands in partnership
with the various agencies that manage them.
Today, Friends of the Inyo works with the U.S.
Forest Service, the Bureau of Land Management,
and the National Park Service, plus dozens
of groups and community partners to remove
invasive plants, restore lake shores, pick up
trash, and maintain and improve trails in favorite
destinations such as June Lake, the Mono Basin,
the Mammoth Lakes Basin, and Convict Lake.
Friends of the Inyo believes that by getting people
involved in their public lands through volunteerism
and exploration, they can build an understanding
of what it takes to keep our public lands clean
and safe for all the various groups using them.
Caring for our public lands by maintaining a trail
corridor, removing rocks or fallen trees from a
trail, installing wayfinding signs or simply picking
up trash makes a big difference in the health and
longevity of these special places.
So does work to ensure the thoughtful
conservation and sustainable management of
our public lands. Friends of the Inyo actively
participates in planning for the management
and protection of our wild places. By attending
public meetings, researching alternatives, and
engaging members and supporters in providing
feedback and comment letters, the organization
helps to ensure the preservation of our precious
landscapes and the vitality of the plants and
animals they support.
“We provide boots on the ground and
thoughtful participation to help care for our public
lands and ensure their resilience for generations
to come” says Executive Director Laura Beardsley.
“Through our volunteer programs and educational
outings, we hope to inspire others to do the same.”
There are a number of different ways you can
help out and give back to your public lands. Join
Friends of the Inyo for one of several volunteer
events throughout the summer or step up to
spend a day volunteering with their professional
stewards. Last year volunteers collected more
than 1,600 pounds of trash and maintained 130
miles of trails. You can also discover more about
your public lands by taking a hike or participating
in one of Friends of the Inyo’s free outings and
interpretive tours throughout the Eastern Sierra.
Expert guides explore a variety of topics on
outings year-round with free tours four days
per week in the Mammoth Lakes Trail System
between Memorial Day and Labor Day.
Friends of the Inyo is a small non profit doing
big work to care for and protect public lands
in the Eastern Sierra.To find out more about
their vital work, check out a schedule of events,
or join the more than 700 members making a
difference for the future of our public lands, visit
friendsoftheinyo.org, follow Friends of the Inyo on
Facebook or Twitter, or call 760-873-6500. They
hope to see you out on the trails!
Appreciation Month to raise awareness
of the important role that the 76 fairgrounds
in the state play in the year-round lives of
millions of Californians. Local fair CEO Sally
Symons states, “The Eastern Sierra TriCounty Fair in Bishop is a prime example of
the year-round impact that such a facility can
have on the surrounding community.”
“Everyone understands fair time,” noted
California Fair Association Chair Cliff
Munson, “but few, including many of our
governmental leaders, realize the year-round
impact of our California Fair facilities.” The
goal is to bring this message to the Capitol
and throughout the State during the final
month of deliberation of the State Budget
which this year, for the first time in four years,
contains new funding for the fair network.
The Eastern Sierra Tri-County Fairgrounds
is a community hub that provides a diverse
venue for numerous public and private
events, and hosts many events of its own.
“As most people are aware state funding
to fairs was cut completely in 2011. Since
then then, the Tri-County Fair has become
a self-sustaining entity through business
operations, events and the generous
donations of the Eastern Sierra community,”
commented Symons.
So, in the spirit of “Giving Back” and in
conjunction with Fair Appreciation Month the
Eastern Sierra Tri-County Fair is re-launching
its Friends of the Fair program with a slightly
different twist. “Now that I have some more
experience and have had the chance to see
what else is going on with Friends of the Fair
organizations across the state, we are trying
a new approach to the Friends of the Fair,”
said Symons. Fairgrounds across the state
have had great success in forming separate
non-profit entities with their own Boards
that can raise funds and volunteer rosters
to benefit everything from new construction
and capital improvements to event planning
and staffing. “So, we are in the process of
forming Friends of the Tri-County Fair, Inc. as
an official 501(c)3 non-profit corporation to
help the fair with these endeavors. “
Once the non-profit has been legally
established a membership drive will
begin and a wish-list of sorts will be
created and prioritized so that the future
development of the fairgrounds can best
serve the community. Anybody that would
like to contribute either by volunteering,
providing ideas or monetary contributions is
encouraged to contact the fairgrounds and
watch for the new launch of Friends of the
Tri-County Fair, Inc.

How to give responsibly
The spirit of giving can be
a wonderful thing to embrace
and can help people to feel
good about helping others.
While most charities are
legitimate entities, there
are others that prey on the
generosity of others. Some
donors might be surprised
to learn their donations are
not always going to a worthy
cause.
Men and women can easily
be overwhelmed by charity
solicitations at certain times of
the year and not know how to
differentiate worthy charities
from the ones that may not
be legitimate. Donors should
employ responsible giving
by researching charities and
ensuring their money is well
spent on those truly in need.
Don’t give on a whim.
Impulse giving can be
irresponsible, as such
donations might not be
going to help those in need.
In addition, when giving
impulsively, donors may
unknowingly be offering money
to scammers preying on the
well-intentioned. Research
a charity before making any
donations, carefully examining
its targeted goals and how
your donation is likely to be
spent.
Do not give over the
telephone. Telemarketing
campaigns to solicit donations
are not necessarily dishonest,
but prospective donors should
never give their personal
information over the phone.
If a telemarketer’s pitch
impresses you, politely request
that information be mailed
to your home or ask for the
charity’s Web site address
and learn more about the
charity there. Giving personal
information over the phone
is risky, as potential donors
may not know if the person
they’re speaking with is truly
a representative of a charity
or a criminal attempting to
steal their identities. Even if
the telemarketer is legitimate,
chances are he or she works
for a telemarketing firm hired
by the charity, so some of
your donation will be going to
pay the telemarketer even if
you want the entirety of your
donation to go to the charity
itself. Making a direct donation
through the company’s Web
site or sending a check directly
to the charity eliminates the
middle person, ensuring more
of your money is going toward
the cause you want to support.
Examine a charity’s
financial records. Reputable
charities should have no
problem sharing their financial
information with prospective
donors, who should not
hesitate to ask for these
records. When examining a
charity’s finances, make sure it
is devoting at least 75 percent
of its budget to its programs
and services, avoiding
charities that are spending too
much money on administrative
services and fundraising. All
charities will need to reserve
funds for administrative
services, fundraising efforts
and additional operating
costs, but those costs should
not exceed 25 percent of the
organization’s budget.
Don’t be afraid to
concentrate your giving.
Many charities support many
worthy causes, and it can
be hard for well-intentioned
donors to decide which charity
is most deserving of their
donations. But spreading
smaller donations around
several charities can make it
difficult for those charities to
make the most of your gift.
More money will be spent
processing each donation,
reducing the potential impact
of each gift along the way.
Once you have discovered
and fully vetted a charity in
which you feel confident, don’t
be afraid to make that charity
the lone recipient of your
charitable donations.
Give in the off-season.
Many charities receive the
bulk of their donations during
the holiday season, when the
spirit of giving and potential
tax deductions compel many
men and women to make their
donations. But charities need
just as much money to operate
throughout the rest of the year
as they do come the holiday
season. If money is tight
during the holiday season,
don’t hesitate to give during
the off-season. Your donation
will be just as valued in July as
in December, and you won’t
be forced to make room for
charitable donations in your
holiday budget.

Things to do when starting a nonprofit
In recent years, the
number of nonprofit
organizations has
skyrocketed. According
to the National Center for
Charitable Statistics, there
are around 1.5 million
tax-exempt organizations
operating in the United
States, which report more
than $1.59 trillion in total
revenue. The organization
Imagine Canada says there
are an estimated 165,000
nonprofit organizations
in Canada, where the
nonprofit and voluntary
sector is the second largest
in the world behind the
Netherlands.
Establishing a nonprofit
organization is not an
easy task and should not
be entered without sound
guidance and forethought.
Though beginning a
business, be it a for-profit
or nonprofit organization, is
different for everyone, there
are some common steps
when founding a nonprofit
organization. While this
information is to serve as
a reference, it should not
replace the advice of legal
counsel knowledgeable of
tax-exempt organizations
in your area. The
requirements for starting
a nonprofit organization
vary depending on a
host of factors, including
geography, so it is highly
recommended that men
and women looking to start
a nonprofit organization
consult with an attorney
to ensure they are in
compliance with all
regulations before opening
their doors.
Write a mission
statement that clarifies
your intentions. The
mission statement should
identify the overall purpose
of the organization,
including why the
organization should exist.
Include the values that
will guide the nonprofit,
its benefit to others, and
how you would like others
to view the business. Do
no go forward with your
plan if you cannot clearly
identify a mission for your
organization.
Decide the type of
organization you want to
be. This will help categorize
your nonprofit. Being taxexempt is not the same as
being tax-deductible. You
may want your organization
to be incorporated to
protect against personal
liability. Otherwise, you
may want to be an informal
nonprofit organization,
such as a group of friends
getting together for a
common goal. Setting
the groundwork for your
nonprofit will depend on the
type of organization you
want to build.
Determine who will
be involved with the
organization. Having a
lot of people interested in
the nonprofit can signal
broad community support.
Otherwise, if the nonprofit
is only exciting to a few
people, it may prove less
capable of realizing its
mission statement. Try to
create a group of mixed
talents that will have a
shared passion. If there is
not enough interest, it might
be better for you to focus
your efforts on joining an
existing organization with a
similar focus.
Create a business plan
that includes a needs
assessment. A needs
assessment is used to
determine if there really is
Strategies to help children
to be more physically active
Today’s students arguably have more
on their plates than any generation that
came before them. But even with their
hectic schedules, kids still have free
time, which many are not always using
in the healthiest ways possible.
According to the Centers for Disease
Control and Prevention, nearly onethird high school students play video
games or computer games for three or
more hours on an average school day.
Sedentary lifestyles can increase kids’
risk for being overweight or obese, and
many parents struggle in their efforts to
encourage their school-aged children to
get off the couch and embrace physical
activities. The following are a handful
of strategies concerned parents can
employ as they attempt to motivate
youngsters to be more physically
active.
• Choose the right activity. Physical
activity and organized sports are
not one and the same. Kids can still
be physically active even if they are
not athletic or if they are simply not
interested in sports. Find an activity
kids can embrace, such as hiking,
swimming or even riding bikes, and
they will be more likely to get off the
couch.
• Limit screen time. Kids spend
lots of time in front of computer and
television screens, which can be
detrimental to their overall health.
Parents can place restrictions on the
amount of time kids are allowed to
spend surfing the Internet, playing
video games and watching television,
encouraging youngsters to spend time
enjoying the great outdoors or playing
with friends rather than spending it
staring at a screen .
• Join in the fun. Parents can set
positive examples by being physically
active and even exercising with their
children. Rather than retiring to the
a need in your community
for the services you want to
offer. Although the nonprofit
will be established to help
others and not to make
money, it is still a business
and must be deemed
viable. The business plan
should also include where
the nonprofit will be located,
how you will market your
product or service, how
management and staff will
be organized, and where
you will get money for
the startup and monthly
operations.
Consider seeking
the support of a fiscal
sponsor. A fiscal sponsor
is another nonprofit
organization that will help
share resources to handle
startup costs and fees.
There also are businesses
that share their resources to
help nonprofit organizations
establish themselves.
The National Council of
Nonprofit Associations
can let you know if there
are such businesses in
your area. Also, seek the
support of an attorney.
While you can lay much of
the groundwork yourself,
professional legal advice
can prove invaluable.
Various reports and filings
must be assembled and
submitted before the
organization can open its
doors, and such red tape
can be confusing for the
novice.
Establish a method of
keeping good records. A
bookkeeper or a recording
secretary should be one
of your first hires. Thanks
to the heavy volume of
paperwork necessary to
establish both for-profit and
nonprofit organizations,
good records must be kept
to ensure you are operating
correctly and legally.
Develop a fundraising
plan early on. Fundraising
is necessary to meet your
operation costs and develop
funds necessary to achieve
your goals. The majority of
that funding will come from
private citizens and local
service groups. Seeking
donations strictly via a Web
site may be ineffective
and illegal, particularly
if the organization is not
registered to solicit funds
outside of its home state.
A Web site should further
your cause, but effective
advertising and word-ofmouth recommendations
will help fuel donations.
There are a variety of
other things to consider
when starting a nonprofit
organization. You may need
liability insurance and an
insurance agent to handle
health and life insurance
benefits for employees.
Bylaws should be written
to specify how the board
will operate. A solicitation
license will be required if
you plan to solicit funds,
and you may need a mail
permit to get a discount on
bulk mailings. Those who
plan to file for tax-exempt
status will be required to fill
out the requisite forms at
both the federal and state
or provincial levels.
There are many free
or low-cost resources
available to help guide
you through the process
of starting a nonprofit,
both online and at the
library. Working at another
nonprofit organization or
volunteering your time
can prove an invaluable
experience to men and
women hoping to one day
start their own nonprofit
organization.

ESLT Volunteers protect the Eastern Sierra’s Rural Legacy
What will the Eastern Sierra look like a
century from today? Will our grandchildren and
great-grandchildren see these same vibrant,
small-town communities that we treasure now?
Like us, will they be inspired by our wild lands
and rural roots?
The choice is yours, and you’re not alone.
The members and volunteers of Eastern Sierra
Land Trust (ESLT) are committed to protecting
what we all love about this special region.
ESLT’s mission is to safeguard the Eastern
Sierra’s critical wildlife habitats, working family
farms, and stunning vistas so residents and
visitors alike will always have the opportunity to
appreciate these same landscapes we love.
“The preservation, sustainability, and
stewardship of our lands is crucial to our overall
quality of life and the quality of life for future
generations,” commented Byng Hunt, former
Mono County Supervisor of 16 years. “Without
committed volunteers, our destiny will be
severely limited and our physical environment
could be functionally and visually diminished
over time.”
As the newly-appointed Treasurer on ESLT’s
Board of Directors, Byng himself volunteers
countless hours each month to guarantee that
our region thrives in the years to come. “It will
take considerable effort to assure the future of
our vistas, farms, ranches and historic sites,”
he observed. “ESLT is an important means
to that end, and I personally look forward to
contributing to these efforts where I am able.”
ESLT works with willing landowners to enact
conservation agreements that preserve our
critical landscapes in perpetuity. Once a land is
protected the real work begins, and ESLT relies
on volunteers to help guarantee that its land
8
conservation triumphs will last forever. This is
done through the restoration and stewardship of
protected lands, and by educating the youngest
members of our community about responsible,
sustainable land management.
Are you ready to help protect critical wildlife
habitat, and are not afraid to get your hands
dirty? ESLT invites you to get outside and
assist with its ongoing stewardship work.
Multiple times a year, staff and volunteers
grab their tools and head out together onto the
land to pick up trash, remove invasive weeds,
transplant and water native plants, and restore
natural habitat to ensure our landscape remains
a safe haven for wildlife.
ESLT’s annual Sunflower Garden Project is a
great opportunity for those who want to engage
local elementary school students with fun,
hands-on activities that teach about life in the
garden. ESLT is now looking for volunteers to
help its Education Coordinators and AmeriCorps
Members prepare for the start of our next
growing season.
There are also plenty of opportunities to
assist with ESLT’s important conservation work
by helping out around the office (on Fowler
Street in Bishop). As the staff and Board
prepare for ESLT’s annual summer event – the
Lands and Legacy Celebration on the weekend
of July 25 – there are countless ways for
volunteers to lend a hand.
Help determine the future of the Eastern
Sierra’s breathtaking landscapes by
volunteering with ESLT today. To learn more
about upcoming volunteer opportunities, please
contact Sara Kokkelenberg, ELST’s Education
Coordinator/AmeriCorps Member, at sara@eslt.
org or (760) 873-4554
Get ready to get your hands dirty this summer! ESLT is looking for hardworking
volunteers to help restore native habitat in and around the ponds at ESLT’s Benton
Hot Springs Ranch Conservation Easement.
Last fall, this team of ESLT staff and volunteers went to work at the Sinnamon
Meadows Conservation Easement to help transform this private working ranch into
safer habitat for the rare Bi-state Greater sage grouse.
ways to have a
successful fundraiser
Fundraising is an
essential element of keeping
charities and other nonprofit
organizations afloat. In fact,
for many schools, sports
teams and nonprofit groups,
fundraising is the single
most effective way for these
organizations to pay for the
rising cost of their activities.
According to Fundraising
Idea Companies (www.
fundraisingideacompanies.
com), estimates suggest
that more than 80 percent of
individuals donate to nonprofit
fundraising efforts. Most of
the donations come by way of
individuals and only a small
percentage from foundations.
Additionally, among those
who donate, it is common for
individuals to support more
than one cause.
Understanding how
fundraising works can
help those looking to raise
money develop successful
strategies for instituting
fundraising endeavors. Here
are some pointers for those
unaccustomed to fundraising.
Start preparing early.
It’s never too early to start
preparing for a fundraising
operation. The more time
devoted to planning and
advertising the event, the
greater the chance for
widespread participation from
donors. In addition to word
of mouth, you will want to
include fundraiser information
on calendars and newsletters
— basically anywhere you
can reach the most amount of
people.
Choose the right
fundraising company.
There are many companies
that specialize in fundraising
events and will welcome the
opportunity to help you raise
funds for your organization.
There are different questions
to ask potential fundraising
companies, and the responses
given should help you
determine if they will be the
right fit for your organization.
Examples of questions include:
What is the percentage
of sales given back to the
nonprofit organization? What
services are available to save
you and volunteers time? How
long has the company been in
business? Is there an incentive
prize program? If so, who pays
for it? What are the ways to
keep costs down?
Avoid fundraising
fatigue. When fundraising,
the “less is more” approach is
often applicable. Although this
may seem counterintuitive,
focusing on a few effective
fundraising initiatives may
prove more fruitful than
presenting several smaller
ones. Over time, individuals
may feel less inclined to
give when faced with many
fundraising solicitations from
the same organization. This
makes finding the fundraising
events that will be most
profitable essential.
Establish clear goals and
deadlines. People are busy,
and unless they are monitored
and fundraiser organizers
stay motivated throughout the
event, it can be easy to lose
the interest of normally willing
participants. Set deadlines in
the near future so events don’t
get lost in people’s schedules.
Enlist the help of reliable
volunteers. Fundraising is
often a large undertaking. It
will require several motivated
individuals all working toward
a common goal. Interview
prospects to see if they
have the gumption and
perseverance to see the
fundraiser to the end. These
may be people who want to
help out but simply do not
have the capacity to donate
money.
Keep donors in the
loop. People often want
to know where their funds
will be going. If this is a
school fundraiser, spell out
specifically what programs
will benefit or which items will
be bought with the money
raised through this fundraising
event. Donors often feel more
comfortable donating toward a
tangible goal, such as a new
smartboard for a classroom.
Do your best to prevent
mistakes. It is important to
double-check orders and
maintain good record-keeping
so that mistakes can be
minimized. Also, you want to
be sure orders are correct and
there are no product defects
before distributing purchased
merchandise. Every fundraiser
held by your organization will
serve as further reference to
donors on how you handle
fundraising initiatives.
Keep it varied. Donors
are continually looking for fun
products or services, so it is
important for you to change up
your fundraising efforts to keep
individuals interested.
Fundraising is an important
part of keeping organizations
afloat without requiring hefty
dues and fees from parents or
participants, and doing it right
can mean financial success.
