Historical Figure

Author of Castle Valley Pageant laid to rest
after accident on hand cart trek

James L. Davis

Friends of Montell Seely might say he was a 19th Century man who lived, and died, in a 21st Century world.

The passing of the husband, father, farmer and lover of pioneer history who dreamed of the Castle Valley Pageant and with sheer force of will brought the pageant to life, was in many ways a testament to his life.  He died on Aug. 12 while doing what he loved, reliving a little of the pioneer past that he came to personify.

That Montell was struck down by a motorist while leading a handcart expedition across the mountains came as a shock to the county that had grown used to him being here, a living piece of history, although he was only 74.

If his death leading a handcart expedition in 2008 seemed a little surreal, it might have made Montell himself smile. Less than three days after the last performance of the 2008 Castle Valley Pageant, Montell died recreating the trek the pageant told the story of. With Montell, Hannah Wagstaff, 13, was also killed when they were hit by a motorist who was blinded by the early morning sun. In the accident two of Montell’s grandchildren, Johnny Seely, 7, and Hannah Seely, 9, were injured.

On Aug. 16 Montell was laid to rest in the Castle Dale Cemetery, and at his funeral his loved ones tipped their hats to the man and his way of life.  His funeral held true to the pioneer heritage he so loved.

The Castle Dale Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints Stake Center was filled to capacity by friends and loved ones who cried, laughed and remembered the man of history in a service that was a celebration of his life.

Of those speaking at his funeral were friends Mark Justice, Delvin McFarlane and Neal Peacock, but the most touching talk of the service came from Montell’s own son, Mark, who addressed the audience with a strong voice, often touched with emotion as he read tributes he and his sisters had written of their father.

When it came time for his tribute to his father, Mark read a passage from Montell’s own journal, which he had kept faithfully since 1976.  The passage he read was from Montell’s entry on Sunday morning, Aug. 10, two days before his passing and one short night since the last performance of the 31st season of the Castle Valley Pageant.

From his father’s journal Mark read how Montell had gone to the pageant site at 5:30 on Sunday morning and told the security guard he could go home, since he was planning to be there for a while.  Then Montell went and freed his horses and sent them down the road, knowing they would go to the cattle guard just before the Emery County Sheriff’s Office Complex.  After that he took his wagons and buggies and one by one pulled them down to the road and hitched them together, finally hooking them to his own pickup

“This makes quite a train,” Montell wrote in his journal.

“He even drew an illustration in his journal,” Mark told the congregation.  Montell went on to write that he gathered up his lead mare and led it by the reins through the window of his truck and the other horses followed and in such a manner he drove his train of wagons and buggies and horses down the road and through the Castle Dale subdivision toward his home.

“Everyone waved to me with a big smile as I went by,” Montell wrote in his journal. “It was about 8:30 when I arrived home.  So the whole operation was all accomplished in three hours with one trip.  If I had hauled all of these units plus the horses one at a time it would have taken six trips and six hours.  Think of the additional time and gas.  The bonus was I enjoyed the experience.  I changed clothes and went to church.  After church I went to the farm and tended my water.  Then I came home and started putting away my wagons and buggies.  I thoroughly enjoy having a collection of buggies.  It gives me great satisfaction to have buggies. I like to look at them, or have a team and drive them.”

Also during the service Mark related how his father always held so much enthusiasm for the Castle Valley Pageant, which he wrote based on the true stories of the first settlers of Castle Valley, his own relatives included.  He recalled that Montell used to make a guarantee to those who had never come to the pageant before:

“’If we don’t make you laugh, we’ll pay your gas to get here, if we don’t make you cry, we’ll pay your gas to get home,’” Mark said his father used to tell visitors.  “He never had to pay for any gas.”
At the end of the service Montell was laid to rest at the Castle Dale Cemetery, taken by covered wagon to his final resting place as family followed behind in a horse drawn wagon.  As the Seely family made their way down the street lined with flags toward the cemetery, people paused to watch the procession as a visitor from the 19th Century passed by…one last time.

Lawsuit Filed on Treatment Center

James L. Davis

The on again off again debate over a residential treatment facility for troubled teenage girls in Ferron is on again as a lawsuit was filed in U.S. District court on Aug. 6 against Ferron City.

The lawsuit, filed by disability law attorney Raymond Scott Berry on behalf of Charlotte Williams and her company, Pine Meadows Residential Treatment Center, asks the court to compel the city council to issue the center a business license. The battle between Williams and Ferron City has been ongoing since last December over the issues of permitting the development of a residen­tial treatment facility for troubled teenagers in Fer­ron. The Ferron City Coun­cil voted during its Feb. 28 meeting against amending its zoning ordinances to allow the facility to go for­ward, the last action by the city in a back and forth debate that has embroiled much of the community.

In February residents for and against the facility filed into the council chambers after the Ferron Planning and Zoning Committee returned the hot potato is­sue to the council with the recommendation that the council change its zoning ordinance to allow the fa­cility to be established in South Ferron.

The residential treat­ment facility and discus­sions about it encompassed three separate items on the Ferron City Council agen­da on the night of Feb. 28, with pro­ponents for the facility and critics of the facility both requesting their opportu­nity to address the council prior to its deliberation of the issue.
At that time Williams addressed the council and read a let­ter from her attorneys at the office of Hughes and Morley. In the letter At­torney Jaymon J. Thomas presented his analysis of the issue, stating: “The starting point of our analysis is the fact that the proposed use is for a residential facility for the disabled; in this case, dis­abled young women be­tween the ages of 12-18. The young women who will be admitted to this residential program suffer from a vari­ety of mental impairments, including emotional and behavioral disturbances, depression, communica­tion disorders, and atten­tion deficit and disruptive behaviors. These impair­ments substantially limit the major life activities of these young women,” Thomas said in his letter.

William’s attorneys argued that as a matter of state law residential facili­ties for the disabled are al­lowed in any zone where non-disabled individuals are allowed to reside. With that being the case, the at­torneys presented to the council their belief that not only did the city not need to change its zoning to al­low the facility, but it had no legal argument for de­nying the facility the right to open.

“On behalf of Ms. Wil­liams we do request that you reconsider her request in light of the informa­tion presented herein, and grant her the permission she seeks. Alternatively,  we suggest that you briefly postpone final determination of the matter until you and your legal representative can familiarize yourselves with the information we have pre­sented, and advise you ac­cordingly,” Thomas said in closing remarks in his letter.

Before the council en­tertained a motion on the subject, Mayor Gil Conover asked the city attorney, Rich­ard Chamberlain, who was present at the meeting, his view of the legal argument presented by Williams’ at­torneys.
Chamberlain told the city in January that he be­lieved that since there was no zone in Ferron that specif­ically permits a facility such as Williams’, it would be ap­propriate to deny it. He said after analyzing the argument of her attorneys his opin­ion had not changed. In his analysis Chamberlain said he believed there was a dif­ference between a residen­tial facility and a residential treatment facility, namely that treatment could include residents of a facility that were there against their will.

“It’s still my opinion that you would have to amend your ordinance to allow the facility,” Chamberlain said.

Williams’ attorneys had urged the city council to ob­tain a legal opinion on the issue from attorney David Church, who provides legal advice and interpretations for the Utah League of Cit­ies and Towns. Chamberlain said he understood if the city wanted a second opin­ion on the subject and Mayor Conover indicated he had talked with Church and the attorney had recommended the city follow the legal ad­vice of Chamberlain.

After Chamberlain had given his legal opinion on the matter, Mayor Conover asked for a motion on the matter and Councilman Trent Jackson moved that the city not amend its zoning ordinances to allow the facil­ity. He said he made such a motion partly because he felt it was the best thing for the city and partly because a change went against the city’s master plan. His mo­tion was seconded by Coun­cilmember Ronny Bloomer.

In a vote on the motion the decision was made to approve the motion to not amend its zoning ordinances by a vote of 4-1.

When the issue first came before the planning and zoning committee in December of last year there was not a quorum present to vote on the zoning request and when the issue went before city council that same night the city approved a business license to Williams for her facility, pending clearance by planning and zoning. With what she felt was con­ditional approval to open her business; Williams in­vested on renovations to the building she had leased to prepare it for operation.

In the interim residents living close to where the fa­cility would be established began to voice their con­cerns about troubled youth being housed in a treatment facility they did not want to be in and argued that a treatment facility is far dif­ferent than a foster home. During the Jan. 10 meetings of the planning and zon­ing committee and the city council the issue dominated both meetings with the end result being that planning and zoning recommended that the city council rescind their earlier decision to give a business license to Wil­liams. During the city council meeting the council took the committee’s recommen­dation and rescinded the license and the issue went back to planning and zoning for further discussion and research. Planning and zon­ing returned the issue to city council on Feb. 19.

With the final decision made by the city council to not amend its zoning ordinances, Williams’ only re­course to pursue the devel­opment of the facility would be to make a legal challenge of the city council’s decision.

Attorneys for Williams filed an appeal of the decision denying the application with Ferron on March 27 and received no response from the appeal, which is what took place with the Aug. 6 filing in district court.

The complaint filed against Ferron City seeks injunctive relief and monetary damages under the Fair Housing Act Amendments of 1988 and the Fair Housing Act, which state that it is illegal to discriminate against any person because of their disability.  According to the filing documents Williams’ out of pocket expenses for Pine Meadows in securing the facility, satisfying state licensing requirements and trying to secure a business license total approximately $77,500 as of May 31.  Additionally, the court document claims that each month that the facility has not been able to operate it has lost monthly placement fees in the amount of approximately $104,000.  In the filing document the court is asked to award compensatory and punitive damages to Pine Meadows in an amount to be proven at trial.

With litigation pending, both sides were advised not to comment by their attorneys, but in an article in the Salt Lake Tribune, Ferron Mayor Gil Conover indicated that he was surprised by the action against the city and that Ferron was willing to grant Williams a license.  He indicated that the city council had sent such notices to Williams’ attorney.

Williams responded to the Salt Lake Tribune that the city said they would issue her a license, but they had not put her on the agenda.

Trash Contract Debate
Continues in Ferron

Colleen Davis

The garbage debate continued, dominating the Ferron City council meeting Aug. 14.

Wade Williams, owner of City Sanitation opened discussion, stating that he was caught off guard by the special meeting that was scheduled for the garbage contract bids. He said he was not aware that a decision on who would be awarded the contract would be made during that meeting.

Williams then handed out copies of the original letter that was sent out to City Sanitation when bids were first opened, along with a copy of Emery County Sanitation bid and a new five year bid from City Sanitation to all who were present at the city meeting. Williams argued that it was reported in the original letter that was sent to City Sanitation that it would be a three-year contract.

Williams further argued if he had been aware of it being a five-year contract instead of a three-year contract it would have definitely changed the numbers.

Council member Trent Jackson stated that Williams could not change the numbers now from the night the original bid was opened. Williams countered that if the council would look at option two his bid was the lowest bid. It was argued by the council that option two should have just been thrown out; the bid was open for interpretation because it was lacking any hard numbers.

There was some concern expressed by the public during the meeting that a more detailed letter had been sent out to Emery County Sanitation. Ferron City Treasurer, Tami Bennett reported that the only information that was sent to Emery County Sanitation was information that City Sanitation already had. The council continued to question and discuss the number of roll offs, the cost of those roll offs and whether or not those records were tracked by Emery County Landfill.

After lengthy discussion the question was posed by the council that if Williams was aware of it being a five year contract, would his numbers have changed. Williams answered by saying, “No, but I would sure like another shot at it after three years”. The council then asked Kent Wilson, owner of Emery County Sanitation if he would be willing to re-open the bids up in three years. Wilson stated that he would like to think about it for a day before making a decision. Wilson went on to say he thought he could find City Sanitation’s original bid that was broken down as a five-year contract, he further stated that he had purchased $100,00 of equipment and had placed the bid in good faith.

During discussion it was reported by city council that originally it had been thought that they could award the bid to whomever they wanted. Legal council later advised that the city had to legally award the contract to the lowest bid.

Council member Ronny Bloomer stated that he felt bad that an error had been made in the award of the contract during the first meeting; that he realized that both companies had a lot to lose if the contract were to be given to the other. He went on to say that, unfortunately whatever had happened during the other meetings, the council was legally bound to award to the lowest bidder, which was Emery County Sanitation. Council member Jackson ended by saying, “We are held to the lowest bid, the lowest bid is Emery County Sanitation and unfortunately that’s the end of the discussion”.

Williams then asked about the possibilities of opening up the contract for bid again in three years, saying there was no doubt in his mind that the service would be the same and that he was sure he would be the low bid and he would love to be back. The council said that was something they would have to discuss with legal council, but they could see Williams point.

Williams concluded by stating that Ferron residents needed to have their garbage cans on the street for garbage pick up on Aug. 29.  The cans would be dumped and then be picked up on Aug. 31. Any garbage put into the cans between the Aug. 29 and Aug. 31 will be dumped before the cans are picked up so that City Sanitation can fulfill their contract through Aug. 31.

The Council finished by thanking City Sanitation for their service and followed up by saying that the council would speak to legal council about the contract being re-opened for bid in three years.

Commission approves $6,000 raise for deputy county attorney

During the Aug. 5 meeting of the Emery County Commission, county attorney David Blackwell requested a $6,000 a year pay increase for deputy county attorney Brent Langston.

Blackwell indicated that Langston has more than 22 years experience as a prosecutor and during his time with the county he has had no significant pay increase.  Currently Langston’s salary is second only to Blackwell’s in the county.  The deputy county attorney makes an annual salary of $72,134, according to the website utahsright.com, which details, among other things, the salaries of government employees and other public information records.

Langston’s pay raise would be prorated for this year and Blackwell indicated that the funds for his raise this year could come from drug seizure funds.

The commission approved the pay raise request.  Last December the commission likewise approved a $6,000 annual pay raise for all elected officials in the county.

Montell Seely

CASTLE DALE – Montell Seely, 74,  passed away on Tuesday, August 12, 2008, during a handcart expedition in Fairview, Utah. He was born February 5, 1934, in Castle Dale, Utah, the fourth of six children born to Karl A. Seely and Cora Guymon Seely. He married Kathryn Pincock, August 27, 1963, in the Idaho Falls Temple, Idaho Falls, Idaho.
He grew up and attended school in Castle Dale and Ferron, where he was active in athletics and leadership of FFA and served as studentbody president at South Emery High School, class of 1952. He lived in Emery County all his life, except for a few years in Logan and Provo to attend college, and in North Carolina 1954-56 to serve an LDS Mission in the Central Atlantic States. In 1965 he graduated from BYU with a BS degree in Animal Science. While at BYU, he was a member of the Ballroom Dance Team and enjoyed ballroom and square dancing for many years. For 4 years the family lived in Orangeville. In 1970 they returned to Provo, where Montell earned a Masters degree in 1972 and was employed in the counseling department at Provo High for 3 years. In June, 1975, while moving the family back to Castle Dale, Montell was involved in a serious accident beneath a mobile home. The family returned to Provo during his hospitalization and recovery which lasted through the summer. Kind friends assisted with the farming until he was fully recovered. 
Montell was engaged in farming and livestock ranching all his life. He enjoyed running his farm that was originally homesteaded by his grandfather, Justus Wellington Seely II. An early interest in pioneers and the westward movement of the Saints in 1847 prompted him to acquire wagons and buggies and the work horses to pull them. He became friends with several Amish families and enjoyed their association as he worked with them in their fields with horses and old-fashioned equipment. In 1977 he organized a ward/community trek over the mountain from Fairview to Castle Dale. In 1978 he formed a committee to produce a pageant to tell the story of the first settlers who came to Castle Valley. Performed annually, the Castle Valley Pageant completed its 31st season on August 9.
After Montell wrote the script for the pageant, he pursued other writing ventures, including a large Emery County History in 1981, Seely History books in 1988 and 1996, and Castle Valley Pageant History in 2003. He kept a daily personal journal from 1976 until the day of his passing.
Montell is survived by his wife Kathryn; son-in-law, Brant James, Adams, Oregon; children: Karla (Thane) Thalman, Surprise, AZ; Fawn (Tim) Miller, Manti; LeAnne Seely, Castle Dale; Mark (Brenda) Seely, West Valley City; and Janell (Kyle) Beagley, Price; sisters, Betty Jane Poulsen, Provo, and Dorothy (Gary) Barlow, Bountiful; brothers, Guy Seely, Clawson, and James (Joyce) Seely, Centerville; nineteen grandchildren: Brandon, Emilie, and Ryan James; KariElle, Edison, Audrey, and Peyton Thalman; Dakota, Hunter, Cassidy, Ridge, and Brooke Miller; Hannah, Jonathan, Matthew, and Luke Seely; Jannika, Kirsten, and Clarissa Beagley; and Aadopted@ family, Mani and Lippa Grewal and daughter Shehnoor, Fairview.
He is preceded in death by his parents; brother Thomas; daughter Valerie Seely James; and daughter Monette Seely, who died as an infant.
Funeral services: Saturday, August 16, at 11 a.m. at Castle Dale Stake Center. Visitation on Friday, August 15, from 6 to 8 p.m. at Fausett Mortuary, 720 N. Center, Castle Dale and Saturday from 9:30 to 10:45 at Castle Dale Stake Center. Interment in the Castle Dale cemetery, under the direction of Fausett Mortuary.

From Puppies to Lizards: 
What Makes a Pet?

Colleen Davis

When beginning this article, the first thing I did was look for the definition of pet. Well some of what I found was that a pet or companion animal is: an animal kept for companionship and enjoyment, as opposed to livestock, working animals or sport animals, which are kept for other reasons. Pets also seem to provide their owners with health benefits; keeping pets has been shown to help relieve stress for those who like having animals around. Walking a dog can provide both the owner and the dog with exercise, fresh air and social interaction.

My research also revealed that for thousands of years people from all different places and cultures around the world cared for some animals simply because the liked them. Sometimes it was because of the way they looked, felt or the sounds they made. Some people chose the pet they had because of the status having such a creature gave them. Some animals are just good company and show an attachment to people.

Pet is a word that started appearing in the English language as early as the 1600s. Pets are generally not expected to work for their keep and they are not eaten. People have been using animals for hundreds of years in many ways. Dogs have been used for generations as guards, for hunting, and herding, but as time has passed, dogs have been kept as companions and playmates. Then and now most family dogs are not purebreds although they still are recognized as retrievers, spaniels terriers, shepherds, hounds, and other types. Their looks reflect the kinds of dogs that are living in the community.  At first domestic dogs appeared to have been similar in appearance. As civilization proceeded, dogs began to evolve so they could perform various functions in the community. Some were used to work with stock, while others served as guards. The selective breeding to develop dogs with deliberate physical traits began about 150 years ago. Today there are about 300 different breeds throughout the world.

Cats were first introduced to help keep rodents and vermin away. What farmers from centuries ago saw and realized is that the crops and grains attracted vermin and rodents. The vermin then attracted cats. The farmers then started encouraging the cats to stay by leaving out food that would attract them. Since they had a source of food. They moved in on a permanent basis. Being a naturally calm animal just as are feral cats today, they first started allowing people to approach them to be petted and then eventually to be held.

What have been considered “children’s perfect pets”, are rabbits, mice, rats, gerbils, hamsters and guinea pigs, because they were easy to care for, didn’t have a long lifespan and are generally gentle. Chickens have also been considered to be a perfect backyard pet for some of the same reasons; they are easy to care for and are gentle and friendly.

One of the most recent changes in the types of pets have been reptiles: lizards, snakes and turtles. One reason for this is because people are able to care for them, but also because a large number of our society finds lizards and snakes both dangerous and repulsive.

Keeping a pet takes a lot of work and dedication, and involves a number of practices. These include providing the animal with a special diet or food, playing with it, giving it adequate shelter and sometimes even allowing it to live in our home or sit on the furniture or your lap. And one of the most important practices in having a pet is caring for it when it is sick or injured.
As I stated earlier pets have been part of our lives for hundreds of years and we continue to debate what our responsibilities are to them. The issues are difficult and opinions vary. Americans for the most part value their pets as companions and associate them with their happiness.

Pet owners include the family pet as a part of their family life. They are included in family portraits, family vacations, holidays and also when buying gifts. Some pet owners celebrate their birthdays, and when the time comes they have a memorial service to mark the end of their life. Over time pets have become an important part of many of our lives, whether it has been a faithful pet or just one that we are used to having in the yard.

So the question again is “what is a pet”? Well a pet  in short is an animal that is a companion and brings us comfort, joy and in general helps us to be happy.

Wilderness Program up and Running in Huntington

Josie Luke

Many residents of Emery County appreciate the surrounding area because of the ability they have to have two very different environments in such close proximity, with the Manti la Sal Mountains to the west and the San Rafael Swell to the east; this also made the area a perfect place for a group of entrepreneurs looking for an area to run a wilderness therapy program.

Elements Wilderness Program is one of the newest businesses to select Emery County as the place to base their operations. With an office in Huntington, the program is now up and running, and began accepting clients on May 30.

Wilderness therapy is emerging as a viable alternative option for the treatment of youth. It incorporates group and individual therapy with the opportunity for youth to learn how to take care of themselves and cooperate with others while working through challenges in an unfamiliar environment.

 Program Director Karen Hesselman described the group’s reasons for selecting the area. “Our first thought was that we’d like to be a little bit closer to our home, Salt Lake, but there really was nothing remote that would work. The elevation was a problem because we need two different field areas, one for summer and one for winter,” she said.

“So, Huntington and Emery County, this strip along Highway 10, was perfect because you have the Forest on one side and you have the Swell on the other. This is really nice, just being in between the two different field areas. ”

She also explained another benefit to the location-- safety, saying, “The time it will take for us to get to the group on either side is quick and that is a big deal for us for safety. It seems like the perfect fit.”

The partners in the business are Hesselman, Admissions Director John Karren, and Clinical Director Lynn Smith. All have previous experience with similar programs. They joined to organize a program they believe will benefit those adolescents who are involved. “We want to go back to the real wilderness piece, as in using the outdoors as a therapy tool, getting rid of all the distractions,” Hesselman stated.  

The Field Director Dan Shorb explained their program’s approach. “This program is smaller and we’re trying to specialize by dealing with less, what we would call, clinical kids, meaning, students that aren’t acting out as much as others in other programs,” he said. “I think our specialization is really a kind of a symbol of where this genre of educational programs has gone. From its real roots of being kind of boot camp style, to now where its gone to the other extreme to where its very therapeutic and very clinical.”

In this light, in the program the youth are referred to as students and staff are called field mentors. For every group of 10 students, there are four field mentors assigned. The field mentors will work with the students for eight days and then have six days off, with a another group of mentors alternating in each week.     

Most students will be referred to the program through an educational consultant who is versed in the many different treatment types and treatment providers, and selects a specific program according to the needs of the client. Parents can also find such programs online. Information on the Elements program can be found at www.elementswilderness.com.

Hesselman also revealed that it took a great deal of time to get permits and licenses in hand for the group to finally be able to open such a business in the area. A license had to be granted from the state, a business license from the city, and permits from the Forest Service and Bureau of Land Management.  

She related, “It would come and go, one day it would be really exciting and I would think ‘everything’s working perfectly,’ and then the next day, you’re just totally depressed and depleted because there would be another glitch. It was up and down a lot, but everything seems to be working out now that we’re up and running.”

Hesselman and her partners are pleased to be in the area and plan to look to the community for support. “We still need a lot of local support to make it happen. We will need more employees as we start to go, so I hope everyone is open to what we have to offer and know that we are very interested in bringing the community into what we’re doing. We do want to know the community and use the resources and hopefully they’re accepting,” she said.

Medical Reserve Corps Looking for Volunteers

Josie Luke

After President George W. Bush’s 2002 State of the Union Address, in which he asked all Americans to volunteer in support of their country, the Medical Reserve Corps was organized. The local unit, the Southeastern Utah MRC is currently looking for volunteers.

“MRC units are community-based and function as a way to locally organize and utilize volunteers who want to donate their time and expertise to prepare for and respond to emergencies and promote healthy living throughout the year. MRC volunteers supplement existing emergency and public health resources,” the MRC website explains.

The SEUMRC is organized under the Southeastern Utah Health Department and is currently looking for doctors, nurses, nurse practitioners, veterinarians, mental health professionals, pharmacists, dentists and emergency personnel, including firefighters, EMTs and police, along with anyone else who is willing to help in an emergency.

“We are looking for people who are willing to do what needs to be done,” explained Cynthia Grant, SEUMRC Coordinator. “Basically, the people we can use is anyone who is willing to work in an emergency situation and who is dedicated and willing enough to give back to the community that they would do that without getting paid.”

Those who would volunteer for the SEUMRC, would be those who would not already be involved, including those who are retired, not working full-time, working in another field, or not currently working.

Some of the situations Grant sees the SEUMRC volunteers working in are in circumstances like the Crandall Canyon mine disaster, or in the event of a pandemic, flood or earthquake. In such instances, they could help to shelter those involved, provide for medical and physical needs, assist with communications, or anything else that was needed.

Grant said the group is just getting off the ground, but eventually, she would like to see a group of 12 to 20 volunteers in each county, with over 70 percent being lay people, without much medical experience. The program will also have a team leader in each county, who would be paid for five to 10 hours a month. In a team leader, Grant said she is looking for someone with strong people skills, who would take initiative and “quickly catch the vision of the MRC”.

The MRC is designed to be of service in the community in which it is located, and so unlike the Red Cross, the MRC has much more flexibility in how it is organized and how volunteers are used.

Grant sees volunteers supporting local health initiatives and any other community event where medical experience might be needed. She revealed that in some instances, like the bus accident last year near Blanding, people were needed to “just comfort people who were involved”, or to help with logistics and record keeping.

Volunteers would need to go through required trainings in eight core competencies, including training in the National Incident Management System (NIMS), which trains volunteers on how to react in emergencies. The trainings can be taken online and according to Grant, won’t require a huge amount of time.

For questions about the Medical Reserve Corps, or to volunteer, contact Grant at (435)748-2997, on her cell phone at- (435)749-2998, or email her at cgrant@utah.gov.

Emery gets ready for football season

James L. Davis

Spartan football returned to Emery County Aug. 16, as the annual Black and Gold game pitted Spartan against Spartan in a friendly exhibition game to get the team ready for the season.
With Coach Jimmy Jones observing, the assistant coaching staff split the team in two.  The varsity players took the field in the first and third quarters and the junior varsity players controlled the field in the second and fourth quarters.
Offensively, the Gold team dominated in the first half as they racked up a commanding 19-0 lead to go into halftime.
In the second half, the Black team was able to shut down the Gold team’s offense and denied them another score for the rest of the game, while marching down to score a touchdown of their own.  But in the end, the Black team couldn’t seem to find the push to catch up to the Gold team and the Black and Gold game ended with a final score of 19-6.
The Spartan’s first game of the season will be Aug. 22 against Grand.

A Mouse, a Rabbit and a Hamburger

James L. Davis

My dad has seen a lot in his 80 years and sometimes it amazes me to think about how much the world has changed since he was born.  I wonder what he really thinks of this strange new world he has watched grow up around him.  Does it frighten him, I wonder?  Does it worry him?  

The answer to those questions is, nope, I don’t think it does.  But I do think the world confuses him sometimes.  I say this because in a great many respects my dad has progressed along with the rest of the world, but in other ways he stubbornly refuses to believe the world is moving forward.

I say this because not too long ago I discovered that when I am not in my office my dad likes to come in and make himself at home.  Apparently he likes my desk. I discovered this because a while back we had a family reunion and during this family reunion my older brother came home for a visit.  He had not been home for a number of years and since he was home my dad felt there was a need to give my brother a tour of the greater Orangeville metropolitan area (meaning Food Ranch to Jim Fauver’s house and selected points in-between).  This tour took roughly 12 minutes.  Not satisfied with the tour’s length, my dad took my brother to my office and showed him around.

My office is right across the driveway from my house, which is convenient because on days when I have to work late I can stumble across the driveway in my pajamas and not frighten the neighbors.  When my dad brought my brother to the office for a tour I was not there, but my children were right across the driveway and so they came over to see what their grandpa and uncle were up to.

They found my dad sitting at my desk, playing with my toys and telling my brother that he could pretty much ruin my day if he pushed the wrong button on my computer.

My brother agreed that he could ruin my day if he pushed the wrong button on the computer, but apparently neither of them were inclined to ruin my day, because they didn’t touch any of buttons on the keyboard.

After a few minutes my dad informed my brother that he didn’t really understand computers at all.  He picked up the mouse off of the computer desk and informed my older brother that while he didn’t understand computers, he did know what that little contraption was called.

“It’s called a rabbit,” my dad said.  At about this point my children began to laugh and informed my dad that no, it was not called a rabbit, it was called a mouse.

“Well, I knew it was named after some little animal,” my dad replied.

When my children informed me that my dad had been sitting at my desk, playing with my toys and calling my computer mouse a rabbit, I began to wonder if perhaps, just perhaps, my dad was pulling our leg.  But I realized that he wasn’t pulling our leg in thinking that a computer mouse was a rabbit because in the scheme of things, it doesn’t really matter to him.  Home computers are not a part of his world now and he has no intention of making them a part of his world in the future.

I suspect that he still holds a grudge against personal computers for putting an end to his typewriter repair business, but it may not be that.  It just might be that he is so grounded in the real world that the thought of a digital world holds about as much interest to him as a mouse…or a rabbit.

Growing up, I remember my dad telling me that he did not have the luxury of indoor plumbing in his house until he was 19 years old.  And he called it a luxury.  If indoor plumbing was a luxury to him, then what is the equivalent today?  To me a luxury is something you can do without and indoor plumbing is not something I can do without.  In my world I don’t think DVR is something I can do without anymore.

My dad also remembers the first time he had something called a hamburger sandwich.  He was in his late teens when that occurred as well.

Growing up a farm boy in North Carolina, he would get to town from time to time for a little excitement, and on this particular occasion he had stopped at a diner for a bite to eat when he saw a sign advertising a hamburger sandwich.  So he thought he would give one a try.

“It was about the best sandwich I had ever tasted,” my dad remembers, and you can still see the hint of wonder he must have felt when biting into this new meal called a hamburger.

I don’t know if I have an equivalent to the kind of experiences my dad had.  I don’t know that I look at things in my world with the same sense of wonder.  But I think I know why a computer is not a big deal to him.  To him a computer is just a glorified typewriter because it isn’t something he really needs in his life.  So while computers may be interesting contraptions to the rest of the world, he could take or leave them, with or without a mouse…or a rabbit.  They don’t hold a candle to indoor plumbing or a hamburger sandwich.

The Madness of Teenage Girls

Casey Wood

Having both an older sister and a younger sister and the fact that I have been around teenage girls for the last six years of school, I have learned that teenage girls are a lot of things, and crazy tops the list. 

Not only do they do crazy things, but they think that they are acting completely normal, when in fact they are making guys question their sanity.  I don’t know if they are in denial, or if they are just oblivious to what normal really is.

The craziest thing about teenage girls is their friendships.  For guys when you make a friend, unless something goes extremely wrong, you’ve made a friend pretty much for life, or at least until one of you move.  It is not at all like this for girls.  If one girl says the wrong thing to another, for example “I don’t like those shoes,” or “I like the boy you used to like,” the friendship is put on an extended, sometimes permanent hiatus.  That’s not all that can end friendships for girls though.  If one girl makes friends with another girl and the first girl’s friends don’t like the new girl, or if one girl doesn’t have as fashionable clothes as the others, the friendship will undoubtedly end.

Another crazy thing about teenage girls is how much they care about their appearance.  Have you ever asked one how long it takes them to get ready in the morning?  Many say two to three hours.  I once asked a girl why she needed that much time and her response was, “Well, I need about 45 minutes for my shower so I can shampoo and condition my hair twice, then I need at least 30 minutes to pick out an outfit, then another hour to do my make-up and hair and brush my teeth, and then I have to have a half hour to eat my breakfast, and then I have to come to school.”  Now let me tell you how much time I take in the morning.  Generally I shower at night, and I have to be at school by 7:25 for early bird, so I get up around 6:50, grab and put on some clothes, taking about 48 seconds, then I brush my teeth, put on deodorant and cologne, and do my hair, taking 10 minutes at the most, then I read my scriptures and leave home by 7:10.  So why, you ask do girls get up two hours earlier than me to get to school by 8:15?  I don’t know, probably the same reason girls can easily spend $1,000 school shopping when it takes $300 to $400 to pay for my clothes.  You always hear how crazy women are about shoes, but my question is why?  They are on your feet all day, therefore they probably don’t smell very good. You walk on them all day, you don’t look at them a lot, and many of the ‘fashionable’ ones are really uncomfortable, so why have five or six or 28 pairs of shoes laying around?  Probably the same reason they use tanning beds in winter when they wear jackets and long pants all the time anyway.

Now we all know the truth, teenage girls are nuts.  The thing that worries me is that us teenage boys are crazy about these crazy teenage girls.  Knowing that makes me question the sanity of us teenage boys, and so I’m not really too sure who’s crazier. I guess until I figure it out the battle of the sexes continues; one crazy teenager at a time.

The ‘Scooter Lady’ Shares
Some Special Cake Recipes

Kathy Ockey

Karen and Dan Huntsman were both raised in Castle Dale, then married and moved away for 20 years.  Karen said they always wanted to move back “home,” and finally Dan’s employment brought them back to Emery County. 

Karen loves living in Castle Dale because it is home and she feels “safe.” She also has many family members that live nearby, including two sons that both work at the Huntington Power Plant.

Karen said several years ago Dan decided they needed to get motorcycles so they would have “something to do together.”  Karen started riding a scooter and now loves it.  She wore one scooter out and got a new one that she has put 430 miles on in just one year driving around town.  She said she is known as the “scooter lady.”

Karen and Dan have four children, three boys and one girl.  She now has 15 grandchildren and two great grandchildren.  She enjoys woodworking and finishing furniture.  She also likes to take care of her garden, raise sheep and calves, cook, bottle and work outside in her yard.  She says she loves her home, but she doesn’t spend much time in it in the summertime, preferring to be outside.

Karen volunteered in her Relief Society to do something for the sisters that were having a birthday each month.  She decided most women like to go out to eat so she invites the birthday sisters and anyone else that wants to join to have lunch at a café each month, and Karen provides the birthday cake.  She said there are sisters that look forward to it and come every month   There is usually a good crowd for lunch and a lot of good conversation and friendship.

Following are several delicious cake recipes that Karen has made for the birthday luncheons.

Artemis Fowl Series will
keep you Entertained

Kathy Ockey

Kayden Parkins is 12 years old, lives in Cleveland and likes sports, mostly football and basketball.  He said he has a photographic memory and this ability makes it easy for him to remember what he reads, as well as other things.  Kayden said he has learned that you can be very smart, even when you are 12 years old, but you have to read and use your imagination.

Kayden has been reading the Artemis Fowl series by Eoin Colfer.  His favorite character in the book is Holly Short.  Holly is an elf and captain of the LEPrecon (Lower Elements Police Reconnaissance). She is the target of Artemis Fowl, who intends to capture her and hold her ransom in a plot to continue the legend of his crime family.  The book mixes fantasy and humor, and is the first in a series of six books that follows the adventures of the 12 year old genius.  The latest, Artemis Fowl: The Time Paradox, was released in July.

Kayden said this is the kind of book that he likes. It has lots of action, mystery and questions that are finally answered at the end of the book, and he thinks other kids would really like these books as well.  He can’t wait to read the second book in the series, Artemis Fowl: The Arctic Incident, but said he has heard so much about the Twilight series he is going to read it first.

Montell Seely’s Impact on County Profound

James L. Davis

Sometimes a person becomes so ingrained in a community that you don’t really realize the impact they had until they are gone.  Such is the case with Montell Seely.
I say that without ever truly knowing him.  My dad knew him and he fondly recalls that Montell Seely was one of the first to befriend him when he pulled into Huntington more than 40 years ago with a gaggle of kids and hardly a penny to his name.
But Montell had a way of being a friend to people he had only just met, and it is one of the many legacies he left behind with his passing.
My dad told me years ago that I should sit down and talk with Montell Seely some day, that he had been the man to write the Castle Valley Pageant and that I would find him an interesting individual.
I did have the chance to talk to him from time to time in the past few years and my dad was right, he was an interesting man.  But in the end I knew of him, but I didn’t really know him.  I had heard stories of his life, of his accomplishments, of the things he had done, the people he had helped and it seems everyone who knew Montell Seely had a story or two to tell about him. And perhaps that is a tribute to the man in and of itself.  For a lover of history, for a storyteller, what better way to be remembered than through stories of your own life?
I spoke with Montell when the announcement first came out earlier this year that the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints had decided that the Castle Valley Pageant would only be held every other year after this year.  It was clear that Montell didn’t like the thought of the pageant not continuing every year, just as it had for nearly 31 years.
Just before the pageant began this year Montell and his wife, Kathryn, spoke in our church about the pageant and said that perhaps, as a community we could pull together and find a way to attract sponsors to continue the pageant on the years when the church was not sponsoring the event.  As he spoke you could see the excitement in his eyes, the determination that the pageant would not miss a year.
There are those who have spent many of the summers of their lives taking part in the Castle Valley Pageant.  And it is through the pageant itself that a piece of the heritage of Castle Valley, and Montell Seely, will continue to live on.

Pool Manager

I spoke with Commissioner Gary Kofford recently about the reason that my wife Marilyn or I did were not even granted an interview for the manager position for the new swimming pool.
Marilyn and I both submitted separate resumes. I said that I would like to obtain co-managers position, mostly just helping with the maintenance side of it, and Marilyn submitted hers for simply the manager. Commissioner Kofford informed me that they only wanted one manager and that is the reason the commission did not even consider either myself or Marilyn for the job.
It is interesting that even with all her certifications and over 10 years of experience working at the Castle Dale City Swimming pool, the last three years of that as manager with me doing mostly maintenance and keeping the pool clean, that they would not even consider her for the position. I highly doubt that anyone else in the county even comes close to having the qualifications that she does.
Commissioner Kofford also said that because of some things in my past Marilyn was not considered for the job. He said, “I did not want you around all those kids with your background.” This is interesting to me also, because he was referencing a substance abuse charge from the early 1990s, charges that had nothing to do with any form of child abuse.  I am very proud of the fact that I have overcome addiction, and have made something of my life. It seemed my community was supportive of my change also, because, when the Emery County Recreation District could not find anyone to coach little league football in 2003, they came to me and asked if I could do it, and I have done so for the last five years.
They also did not seem to mind that I coached for the Junior Jazz program for the last seven years. When I was asked to come and sit in on the planning committee and give my expert opinion on chemical and filtration systems for the new pool I did. I was happy to do it because it helped better the community. They did not seem to have a problem with me being on the committee to help get the word out to vote on the grant that paid for the new swimming pool. And they did not seem to mind when the Emery County Fair Board asked Castle Dale City if they could have a free swim day for the fair.  I was helping Marilyn co-manage the pool then and we were asked three years in a row to do a fair day at the pool. All of the Castle Dale City Council members knew of my background as well as the mayor. They realized, as the Emery County Commission apparently does not, that all people make mistakes in their lives, and that people can change for the better. Marilyn has a clean background, so this discrimination should not apply to her anyway.
It is my opinion that Marilyn is being discriminated against for one reason and one reason only, and that is for being married to me. Even though I have changed for the better I might be able to understand the commissioner’s hesitation in considering my application, but to totally disregard the passion that Marilyn has put into this community and the swimming programs is just absolutely absurd. It will only be the community’s loss if she is not considered for a position at the new pool.
The acting Emery County commissioners seem to think they can hire whomever they want and refuse to interview qualified applicants. Marilyn and I did not even receive a phone call to explain to us why we were not considered for the position. This is not how our hard work in the community should be rewarded.

James L. Davis
Publisher / Editor

James Davis has spent most of his adult career in love with the idea of being able to tell the stories of everyday people who continually do extraordinary things.  There is an abundance of such people in the San Rafael Swell area.

Together with his wife, Colleen, the two started The Emery County Review in January of 2007 because of their love for the people and places of Emery and Carbon counties.

They are proud of their small town newspaper and spend countless hours debating how they can best spread the good news of the area.

With a dedicated staff and teenage children that they can still beg to cover school news (for a price), their hope is that The Emery County Review will be recognized for living up to its motto:

You’re News to Us!

Colleen A. Davis

Co-Publisher / Advertising Manager

 

A native of Emery County, Colleen has a great love for the people of the San Rafael Swell and Castle Valley area and hopes she has instilled those same feelings in her children.

The part of her job she loves the most is being able to work side by side with her husband. She enjoys getting to know people more and find out what hidden talents and passions they have, and reminiscing about the people and the county.

When The Emery County Review was started it was a new adventure for her and has proven to bring great joy to her life. An animal lover, she has been a veterinarian technician for approximately nine years and continues to work part-time as a veterinarian technician, more as a hobby and a driving passion today than a job.

Colleen loves spending time with her family, whether just in the backyard or hiking, riding 4-wheelers, playing on the boat or on a family drive.
