Mayor Back at the Helm
Last week’s Glenns Ferry City Council meeting
saw Mayor Connie Wills
back in the saddle (does
that carry you back to the
old west?) after her medical
absence.
During public comments, Mr. Tony Santair,
asked why he had received
an ordinance violation letter for a vehicle parked on
the street in front of his
house that did not belong
to him. The initial explanation was that an assumption is made that a vehicle
parked long-term on the
street belongs to the property owner whose property
fronts on the street at that
location. Mr. Santair then
explained that the letter
indicated that the real
owner of the vehicle had
also received a copy of the
letter. He further suggested
that violations involving
motor vehicles be divorced
from real estate owners as
is done elsewhere.
Mr. Jak Krieger commended the city for all the
road improvements made
recently, and also the
crosswalk markings at the
intersection of Commercial
and 1st Ave. He voiced his
concern over proper enforcement of the city’s weed
abatement ordinance. He
has been in communication with the Sheriff’s Department on the matter
and they point him back to
City Hall for the answer.
The mayor acknowledged
that some fine tuning
needs to be done on the
enforcement side of things.
Mr. Ralph Jones commented that it appears that
people involved in city government don’t seem to be
abiding by the ordinances
that they, themselves have
passed.
He went on to question the
reversal of a decision made
at the previous council
meeting to use asphalt
millings to improve the alleyway behind Worldwide
Equine and resolve a situation where sand from that
alleyway blows around the
downtown area and fouls
otherwise clean areas-sidewalks, parking areas,
etc. Public Works Director,
Jeff Cook explained that
with the current repairs
being made on the city’s
roadways, time and money
have run short and a less
expensive fix was implemented instead--that being
spraying magnesium chloride in the alleyway to lock
down the dust and sand.
Mayor’s Youth Council
members, Brady Turner
and Carlos Gastelum reported on their attendance
at the Association of Idaho
Cities Youth Conference
this summer. Family, city
and school each paid about
one third of the cost for
them to attend the conference. They are learning
about the workings of local
government and will continue on the Mayor’s Youth
Council through the current school year.
Mr. Donn Carnahan of
Keller
Associates,
addressed the issue of advertising for construction bids
for the West Garfield Street
road reconstruction project. He identified an issue
that had not been considered
previously--federally
m a n da t ed
p e d es t ri a n
ramps for all the sidewalks
that will be reconstructed
during the project. The ped
ramps would add an additional $40,000 to $50,000
to the cost of the project.
The time table is not good
for seeking grants to help
defray this additional expense, but the council vot-
ed to advertise the construction project to include
the ramps.
Councilwoman
Case
asked about the status of
the proposed King Hill Irrigation contract with the
city for irrigation water.
Councilman
Stevenson
said he was frustrated because the contract is still
in the hands of the KHID
attorney. He assured the
council that he would get
an answer, one way or another, by the next council
meeting.
After initially declining
comment, Lt Wade of the
Elmore County Sheriff’s
Office was asked by Councilman Thompson about all
the vandalism going on
around town. Wade said
there had been 26 calls for
service in Eastern Elmore
County since the 1st of August.
The student council
representatives indicated
that they were putting out
the word on the rules for
the homecoming bonfire.
The public should be aware
that there are restrictions
on what can be placed on
the burn pile. Upholstered
furniture should not be put
on the pile. Any questions
regarding what can be
placed on the burn pile
should be directed to the
Glenns Ferry High School
at 366-7434.
Mr. Jones asked for a
status of the survey of airport so property lines could
be squared up. He also
asked about the relocation
of the river access road to
the east of the airport. Nobody present had updated
information, so an answer
was deferred until Justin
Wootan, the airport manager could be present.

Burn Ban Lifted
Cooler temperatures, reduced winds and recent
rains have combined to create conditions less conducive
to range fires in Southern Idaho. As a result, the
Elmore County Commissioners have cancelled the
county-wide burn ban effective Friday, September 16th.
The burn ban has been in effect since July 1st.
As a reminder, in order to light an open fire within
the city limits, residents are required to get a burn permit from the fire chief, then notify both the fire department and Elmore County Dispatch before starting a
fire. The phone number for the fire department is, 5990000, and Dispatch is, 587-2100. Dispatch requires an
additional call when you are finished burning.

You Should be Outraged!
Once again that shady element has surfaced in our
little town--N’er-do-wells who know how businesses that
struggle to stay afloat should spend their money-cleaning up the mess and repairing their vandalism.
During the last week and a half at least four local
businesses have been hit by vandalism and burglary.
And hit seems to be the operative word as rocks came
crashing through the front windows of three of them.
Friday evening, September 9th, as The Calico Cupboard
was preparing for their September 16th and 17th Grand
Opening, someone helpful soul took aim at their
“Believe” sign in the front window and put a large rock
through that window. So, someone trying to do a good
thing in our community was thanked with vandalism
and The Calico Cupboard got to celebrate their Grand
Opening with a boarded up front window. The following
Tuesday, in the wee hours of the morning, someone
threw a rock through a window at Smith’s Hometown
Hardware and that evening, a similar rock was thrown
through the front window of the Redford Motel. Strangely
enough, the latest rock throwing occurred less than an
hour after Elmore County Sheriff’s Lieutenant Bobby
Wade had briefed the Glenns Ferry City Council on the
26 calls for law enforcement service in Eastern Elmore
County since the 1st of August.
During the same timeframe, a burglary took place at
the Trail Break RV Park. The thief took items the owner
uses to improve and maintain the park along with other
personal items and an undisclosed amount of cash.
So, to the perpetrator of these despicable acts of
thievery and vandalism, you are put on notice--The reward for information leading to your arrest and conviction is at $1,200 and will likely go higher. While one
business owner says that you are in God’s hands, another wants to arrange that meeting. And if you intend to
make this a game of “cat and mouse,” I am not aware of
any case where the cat ever loses. You have been

warned.
To the people of Glenns Ferry, it is time to rid the
community of this blight. Be vigilant--if you see something, say something. The phone number for Elmore
County Dispatch (Sheriff’) is 587-2100.

It’s All About The Gainz!
Hi there, to the few who read my article. This week I feel super influenced to write
about something people don’t usually talk about, mental illness. No, I'm not talking
learning or developmental issues, but more inner thoughts. More of a completely
physically fine person being trapped by their brain in an alternate universe that looks
completely different from the beautiful, colorful world around us. There is more than
one, but for now, today, there is a focus.
To start this I need to make you understand a little bit better. You’ve all had bad
days, right? Ones that never seemed to end. They drag on and on, and nothing goes
your way. Imagine feeling that for weeks, months, maybe even years. Depression!
Saying it kind of gives me a foul taste in my mouth. I’ve been depressed, you've probably been depressed at one point. But looking back at your high school life, what do
you see? Do you see happy days, mad days, sad days, and STRESSFUL days? I do.
But that's not my point, my point is that clinically depressed people can see something good and turn it and twist it and carve it...until it's a bad thing. They don’t see
the other stuff because their brain is too busy being sad. Today I’m going to share
with you a paragraph from a friend. She is staying unnamed, but her words mean
something to me, and I hope to you as well.
“Winter is soon to be over and my poor broken depressed soul is pining for the
sun that makes it feel a little less broken. And in turn I have grown impatient and
spiteful, that's all.
No, it is not just a beautiful line of poetry but, my own demented form of insight.
Were it not for the presence of a most unwelcome person in my house, and her insistently inappropriate hands, I would not be doing most disgusting mutilations to my
body. Therefore, my spinning mind and fearful nature of her is making me even more
wary and less sociable. In turn I come off as depressed and have left the rest of my
family to question me relentlessly. And I am the worst for it. For they must never
know. I am trapped by my age and "maturity" for I'm not allowed to leave my house
for more that a night at a time. I find reprise at school where I can fake my happy
and make others happy with it. But is this how it's going to be forever? Sacrificing
what is left of my tattered soul for the sake of others? Or will I be labeled a jerk and
an outcast for relentlessly pushing everyone away? For at least two years I will never
know, the pattern will continue and I will be worn down even further. My walls will
grow higher and my reclusiveness and longing to be alone, but not lonely, will continue. Until I can find a family that is not blood, but a family I can trust. And if I do not?
The repercussions? The last time I let on that my wounds were deeper than a few
swollen lines on my skin I was treated like I was crazy. I refuse to watch myself stoop
to such a pathetic life once more.”
You see I never would have thought she was depressed and looking back I might
have seen some signs but never really noticed them. Now she's gone. Not dead gone,
but she had enough. She's mean to everyone and spiteful and hides behind and
sweater. We aren't friends anymore because I didn't notice and I never asked. She's
lost herself and I wonder what would have happened if someone had known.

Dad’s Memory
--No Pants
Dad was raised in a log
cabin in Albion, Idaho,
which is located in a high
valley in the south central
mountains in Idaho. In the
winter, the snow gets deep
and the temperature gets
pretty low. In the summer,
temperatures above 100
are not unusual. Anyone
that knows Southern Idaho is aware that the wind
blows here a lot. People
have been known to fall on
their face if they walk outside on a calm day, just
out of the habit of leaning
into the wind. Looking
back, Dad always wondered why they never rechinked the cabin walls
when it was warm. Maybe
the summer breeze blowing through the cabin felt
pretty good. Being raised
in a drafty cabin apparently causes logical but
strange dressing routines.
Dad slept in a night gown
and cap--all you have to
do is visualize the father
depicted in the night before Christmas. Whether
being raised as a cowboy
or in a drafty cabin caused
this, I’m not certain, but
he dressed from the bottom up. The first thing
that went on were his
boots (some people have to
shovel their sidewalks-according to his recollections he had to shovel
snow out of the bedrooms).
Who wants to put their
bare feet in a snow drift
first thing in the morning?
In his gown, cap and boots
he headed for the kitchen
where he finished getting
dressed--in many cabins
the only heat was the wood
cook stove. Cook stoves
heat in three ways: once
when you split the wood,
warmer when you don’t
split the wood and Mom
get a hold of you, and a
little warmer still if and
when you get the fire going.
Jump forward a few
years. By this time he was
married and we lived in
King Hill. He was teaching
in Wendell. Our house had
forced air heat in all the
rooms except the bedrooms. Old habits die
hard, including his getting
up routine except now,
instead of heading for the
kitchen to get dressed, he
headed for the bathroom.
Here he shaved, then put
on everything, including
his hat--everything, that
is, except his pants. These
were hung by the kitchen
door. Being a school teacher, a suit was the required
attire. Dad had great table
manners, but I don’t think
he could eat an egg without managing to dribble
yolk somewhere. A bib
took care of the upper part
and not having any pants
on took care of the bottom
part. You may wonder why
he didn't’ eat first, then get
dressed. We had a routine.
Mom taught school ten
miles in the opposite direction from where Dad
taught, which was over
thirty miles away. So Mom
cooked breakfast while
Dad had the bathroom tied
up. Then she took possession of the bathroom and
Dad ate breakfast. They
both had to be at school at
the same time, so consequently, he had to leave
earlier. These were the
days when clocks still had
hands, plugged into the
wall, and didn’t flash when
the power was off. Our
house had two--one in the
kitchen and one in the
bathroom. Mom would
keep an eye on the one in
the bathroom and yell at
Dad when it was time for
him to leave. I don’t know
how many times he made
it to the car and sat on the
cold seat before he realized
that part of his anatomy
was
exposed. Enough
times that Mom learned to
yell, “Johnny, it’s time to
go--(pause)--Don’t forget
your pants.” This particular morning was a beautiful spring day, but the
power had been off during
the night for about fifteen
minutes. No one noticed
until Mom happened to
look at her watch. Immediately she broke the routine
and yelled, “Johnny, the
power was off and you are
going to be late.” She left
out an important part. The
sun was shining and the
seat of Dad’s car was
warm. He had a ten minute headstart on Mom.
(Dad was the designated
school un-locker, and the
keys were in his pants. So,
nobody went in early unless he was there with his
pants on.) I don’t know
how fast she was driving
but she caught up with
him at the school door. I
wish I could have seen the
faces of the kids while Mr.
Parke put his pants on. I
do know the reaction I received when I called Mom’s
school and explained to
the principal why Mom
was going to be late. After
that morning, Dad showed
up at school with egg on
his pants. He usually forgot to put a towel in his
lap.

New Blood Drive Coordinator
The Red Cross community blood drive held on September 13th was
spearheaded by the new coordinator, Gary Nelson. Nelson is a long
time resident of Glenns Ferry, having chosen to settle here in 1992 after a 22 year career in the United States Navy. No stranger to volunteering, Nelson averages over 100 volunteer hours a month in a variety of projects serving the community, including tax preparation at the
Three Island Senior Center, and in the local VFW post. He is also the
Idaho Training Specialist for the Idaho Tax-Aide instructors.
The Red Cross team collected 22 units of blood, short of the community goal of 35 units. September is a difficult month in which to
conduct a blood drive for a variety of reasons--harvest and beginning
of the year school activities being just two. Red Cross statistics indicate that up to three lives are saved for each unit of blood collected. So
we applaud the community for the 66 lives they may have helped save.
Nelson is asking for broader community support in the Red Cross
effort to save lives. If you have previously been a Blood Donor, or are
interested in becoming one, mark December 6, 2016 on your calendar
for the next community blood drive. Any questions or requests for a
reminder closer to the actual event should be directed to Nelson at 366
-7509 or email nglennsferry@q.com
Nelson thanks
all those selfless
individuals
who
took the time and
effort to either donate, attempt to
donate or assisted
in the September
13th Drive.

Opera Theatre--Another
Summer Season Ends
The Historic Opera Theatre in Glenns Ferry finished
the 2016 summer season on August 27. This season saw
new and familiar faces on stage and in the audience as
well as a continuation of popular traditions such as door
prizes, recognizing first timers, those from farthest away,
and those celebrating birthdays and anniversaries.
The Idaho Commission on the Arts awarded the theatre a grant to help with hiring Shaun Nichols as the director for the Saturday melodrama. Shaun is the grandson of the late Dorothy Nichols, theatre pianist until the
time of her death at the age of 92. He recruited performers from Idaho State University as well as technical help
from his brother, Vaughn Nichols.
Theatre audiences included tourists from the Three
Island Crossing State Park as well as a variety of
groups/organizations looking for an evening of good food
and fun entertainment. Royalty Sponsors were the
Fudge Factory Grill and Idaho Power. Thirty businesses
purchased program advertisement. Fifty cast members
and 2,000-2,500 patrons attended the productions during the 2016 season.
Grant applications are currently being completed for
replacement of the ceiling, now that the roof has been
repaired. Watch for a fund raiser to help with this project.
Upcoming events include a Christmas play to kick off
the holiday season. Auditions and casting will take place
in October with performances in early December. The
annual Chamber of Commerce visit with St. Nick will
once again be held at the theatre after the community
Christmas parade.
The Opera Theatre is a great event center and available to rent for weddings, receptions, special celebrations
and corporate retreats. Contact Rich or Connie Wills at

Let’s Play
Stump the Dummy
So, there has been plenty of advertising about the opening of
The Calico Cupboard, the new
consignment shop in town.
Among the many things brought
to the shop is the item pictured
at the left--a 4-tine fork about 6”
long. The Calico ladies haven’t
the foggiest idea what this fork
was used for--other than possibly prodding reticent children.
Can anyone help them out? If
you can help, please respond to
The Calico Cupboard or the paper.
Grand Opening for The Calico Cupboard
A new consignment business in Glenns Ferry officially
opened its doors on September 16 &17. Many came to
join the celebration and enjoy the varied items for sale.
In 2008 CapEd Credit Union started a teacher grant
program. This program gave
montly grants to teachers and
educators.
Teachers seeking a grant
would apply to the Credit
Union and provide information including the proposed use of the grant money, how many students are
impacted, how the request
fits in the current school district curriculum, and the amount of the grant requested.
Each month a selection committee of three or four former teachers and education administrators would review the applications and recommend recipients to CapEd.
In 2012, the Idaho CapEd Foundation was formed. It assumed ownership of the Teacher
Grant Program. The program retains its original purpose of awarding grants to Idaho teachers
and educators to be used for specific educational projects or programs for their students.
CapEd Credit Union and the Idaho CapEd Foundation have given over $250,000 to Idaho
teachers over the last eight years. These resources have aided teachers in improving content
and tools in their classrooms to inspire creativity and innovation. Through We Love Teachers
you too can join CapEd in touching the lives of individuals and teachers. Through their partnership with DonorsChoose.org, they are helping more teachers and students across Idaho receive needed resources.
Last Tuesday, September 13th, the car above, driven by Barry Prindle from CapEd, visited
the Glenns Ferry Elementary school to award a check, pictured below to 4th grade teacher,
Stacie Pollard. Mrs. Pollard had applied for the CapEd grant so she could buy a copy of the
book, Growing Up With a Bucket Full of Happiness, for each of her students. There were
squeals of delight from them when she announced to her class what the money would be used
for. With Mrs. Pollard and Mr. Prindle in the photo is Glenns Ferry Elementary School Principal, Mr. Rob Spriggs.
Mr. Prindle encouraged the school
to spread the word about the grants.
He said there were schools within
CapEd’s area of interest that had won
several grants during a single school
year. He also told of one teacher who
submitted the same application several
times in succession until she finally
won a grant and saw her wish for her
students fulfilled.
The Glenns Ferry Times & Seasons
congratulates Mrs. Pollard for going
the extra mile to find and get resources
to help enrich her students’ education
experience.
The online CapEd grant application
is available at CapEdFoundation.org.

Prune those trees that are susceptible to disease if
pruned in the spring, such as maple, birch, oak,
and mountain ash.
This is a great time to plant new trees and shrubs
because the new roots will have plenty of time to
become established before the spring.
Fall is the best time to start lawn grasses from seed.
Till the soil before sowing and provide several light
waterings each week.
Dig the herbs from your garden and plant them in
pots to bring indoors for the winter; such herbs include rosemary, parsley, chives, and thyme.
Begin moving houseplants inside.
Perennials can be divided and replanted.
Watch for frost forecasts. Harvest tomatoes before
the first killing frost. Ripen indoors away from sunlight.
Harvest Brussels sprouts and parsnips once they've
been exposed to frost.
If you want to prolong your fall crops, sow radish,
lettuce, spinach, and other greens in cold frames.
Be sure to bury or throw away any fallen fruit to
help keep away any unwanted pests from your yard.
Compost garden debris and kitchen scraps.
Take root cuttings from annuals, such as begonias,
geraniums, and impatiens; plant them in a container and keep them in a sunny place indoors.
Save the seeds from your favorite self-pollinating
flowers. Dry the seeds and store them in sealed containers for the winter.
Improve your garden soil by adding manure, compost, and leaves to provide it with more organic
matter.
From The Old Farmer’s Almanac
Did you know that when you think things are working out so well, life throws you
a curve ball? It isn’t that I shouldn’t be used to them, even expecting them, but still
somehow they surprise me.
Our curve ball came on Friday night when someone decided to throw a rock
through our window at The Calico Cupboard. I have to admit to being dumbfounded
at the news. I don’t have any enemies that I am aware of; I don’t think I have any
problems with others in the community. Why me? But maybe the better question is
“Why not me?”
We have had many offers of help to find the guilty culprit. We appreciate that.
But the help that I desire from my community is to genuinely pray for these individuals. They have way bigger problems than my broken window. Problems that won’t be
solved by retribution or punishment. Not that there aren’t consequences for their
actions, there always are. I am confident that the law will catch up with them eventually and they will have to suffer those consequences
As for me, and my partners, we choose to think of them, pray for them and love
them. Yes, I said love. Those who feel it is necessary to throw a rock through a window to get attention, desperately needs someone to love them. I believe we are the
community to do that. It is the only way to make a real difference in this person’s
life. Punishment or jail probably won’t set them straight, it could possibly make
things worse. What will change their lives are people who care enough to be involved,
to provide an example of good citizenship, to show them that we care and take care of
each other; to see that we are big enough, wise enough, and willing enough to put
aside all the “reactions” and move on to positive action. It is easy to retaliate when
people are trying to “get you”. It is much more difficult when someone loves and forgives you.
The Calico Cupboard was in good hands. Nothing was taken or broken except the
window. Our “Believe” sign in the window seemed to be the target. That tells me the
thrower was hurting, angry, or suffering in some way. “Why me?” Because that person needs us. Moreover, we need that person. God can, and will, do great things
with those two needs.
To the rock thrower: I wish I could express to you the sorrow I feel. I don’t care
about the window. What hurts is that you attacked our community in the form of
The Calico Cupboard. You might think it is “just” a store . . . but you are so wrong!
It is a storefront, yes, but it is so much more. It is a place for the creative, talented
people in our area to sell their wares, it will be a gathering place for young people; it
will offer classes to learn new things, and present demonstrations so we can appreciate the talents of our neighbors. It is a place to relax and have a cup of tea, a place
to sit and visit and feel the love of God. It will be the home of Love, INC in the future.
Love, INC is a ministry that changes people’s lives by helping them “up and out” of
less than positive circumstances. When you broke my window, you touched everyone
in this community in some way. If your intent was to inflict damage, you missed.
What you did was instill love and support and unity into our community. Thank you
for that.

Class of 1976 Celebrates
If you were wondering about the THUNDER you heard over the Labor Day weekend, it
was just the Class of “76” celebrating their 40th high school class reunion in Pine.
On Friday evening, September 2nd, the evening air was filled with laughter and tears
as memories of classmates’ mischief and crazy antics were re-hashed, along with a few
heart-warming stories of life changes and challenges that class members had faced. Last but
not least, some time was spent asking, “where is so and so?” and why were they not able
to come to the reunion?
Saturday the class enjoyed a quick brunch together--fresh homemade cinnamon rolls
from the Pine Senior Center, juice and coffee. Then we were off on our own to enjoy the
supposed “mini vacation.” You know what I mean, where you’re going to go golfing, fishing,
swimming, hiking or even shopping at the Senior Center’s annual craft fair--Ha, Ha!!! I do
believe some of the class attended the craft fair for a little shopping experience. Then that
age factor crept in. You can guess what happened next. Naps were on the agenda. You
would have thought we were senior citizens ourselves. I guess now being over 55 we do
qualify. So...for most of the day we all just got together to share the happenings of the last
10 years.
As evening approached we all gathered at the cabin of Dan and Mary Jane Blackwell
in Featherville, for a BBQ. There was an abundance of food and drink--Oh! What a Night!!
We gathered around an open fire pit to enjoy the warmth and to honor our classmates who
have passed. Then moving on, we refreshed our memories with a game of 1976 Trivia. Class
photos were taken, then once again we resumed the laughter and company--just being with
old friends (old as in have known them for a long time--not old as in OLD).
We even had a “Camp Fire Sing Along.” Dan Blackwell shared his talents as a musician, songwriter and singer. Others joined in the singing as familiar songs were played--not
sure we would have won any awards for our singing. And, likewise, I’m not sure Dorothy
Nichols (high school choir teacher) would have put her stamp of approval on it either.
The BOTTOM LINE--A great time was had by all who attended. God bless the Class of
76 (our Nation’s Bi-centennial class). See you all in 5 years.
P.S. I’m pretty sure Pine and Featherville will never be the same.


The Bonfire
Please check with either the Fire
Department (599-0000) or the
high school (366-7434) before
you put something on the Bonfire
burn pile. Don’t just assume that
because someone else put an old
couch on the pile that it’s okay-it’s not! It only means that they
did it without checking first. The
bonfire is on private property and
while the owner wants to support
this time worn Homecoming tradition, they don’t want a huge clean
-up nightmare after the event. So
PLEASE CHECK before placing
things on the pile.
Purchase articles of
clothing at thrift
shops
and
yard
sales.

Hang loads of laundry on a clothesline
to dry instead of using the dryer.

Make pizza from
scratch instead of
going out for a slice.

Reduce your smoking by three cigarettes per day. Give
up smoking and
save much more!

Reduce your
consumption.


Pack an inexpensive
lunch instead of going out to eat.

WHAT IS THE AUTUMNAL EQUINOX?
This year, the autumnal equinox falls on September 22, 2016 at
10:21 A.M. EDT.
The word equinox means “equal night”; night and day are about the
same length of time. This occurs two times each year: Vernal in late
March and Autumnal in late September.
In addition to the (approximately) equal hours of daylight and darkness, the equinoxes are times when the Sun’s apparent motion undergoes the most rapid change. Around the time of the equinoxes,
variations in the position on the horizon where the Sun rises and
sets can be noticed from one day to the next by alert observers.
From here on out, the temperatures begin to drop and the days
start to get shorter than the nights.
It is the summer’s great last heat,
It is the fall’s first chill: They meet.

Thank You to School Bus Drivers
Every school day in Idaho, more than 3,467 buses carry our
children to and from school, traveling more than 25 million
miles each school year. The buses and drivers help to ensure
student participation in academic programs and after school
activities.
School bus drivers are typically at work before the sun is up
and get home after the sun sets. They are the first and last
school employee your child sees on a normal school day. They
endure all forms of bad traffic. They endure mental, verbal and
sometimes physical abuse on a daily basis, yet they still show
up every morning with a smile on their face. Garbage men,
truck drivers and even mail men make more money, yet school
bus drivers transport the most precious cargo there is.
Many suffer from chronic neck, back and joint pain as a result of their job. They often suffer public ridicule in the media.
They are your children’s school bus driver. Show them some
appreciation. It takes a truly special person to do what they do.

The Glenns Ferry Ladies Golf League ended
their 6-month season at a
two day, 36 hole, tournament held at the Vineyard Green Golf Course
on September 10-11, with
the winner of the tournament, Connie Martell,
named as the League
Champion for 2016.
League play starts in
the middle of April and
ends in September. Golfers of all ages and abilities are always welcome
to join the group. Information about joining the
league will be available
the end of March, 2017.
Not only was a league
champion named this
year, but Julie Winters
was able to post a Hole-in
-One on her score card
for hole number 4 on the
first day of the tournament. This is only the
second time a Hole-inOne has happened during
the league championship
tournament, the last being at least twelve years
ago.
Samantha Lenz finished only one stroke behind Champion Connie
Martell to take second
gross. Norma Severson
was third gross and Vicki
Smith forth Gross. Others
who placed were Peggy
Watkins, first net, Julie
Winters second net and
Helen Hall, third net.
Julie Winters and Samantha Lenz had the
longest drives on hole
number two. Closest to
the Pin honors on hole
number four went to Peggy Watkins and Julie
Winters with her Hole-inOne. The ball cannot get
any closer to the pin than
that!
