Some changes made at our operation

  Because of the recent death of Mark Aman, we are forced to make substantial changes here at Owyhee Publishing and The Owyhee Avalanche.
  First and foremost, we are forced to cease operations of the web printing business. Mark was the operator of the web press. We will, however, continue servicing our commercial printing customers, both present and potential. (This includes forms, envelopes, posters, mailers — about anything except newspapers.)
  The Avalanche will continue as usual. The Idaho Press in Nampa has graciously stepped up to accommodate the printing of the Avalanche and our web printing customers.
  Some services are temporarily unavailable. Call or email our office at (208) 337-4681 or offi ce@owyhee.com for current online issues of the Avalanche. We’ll ask you to provide your subscription address, the name on the account, and an email to which to send the digital copy.
  The PayPal option to pay for subscriptions has been suspended temporarily. Subscribers who use PayPal to pay their annual subscriptions should cancel recurring payments through the service. Call the Avalanche office to renew subscriptions that may be coming due.
  We appreciate the outpouring of support during this difficult time.

-Margie, Jon, Rob, and Joe

Wild horse gather will bring road closure

  The Bureau of Land Management's planned wild horse gathers in three horse management areas on Wednesday will trigger a temporary closure of Rabbit Creek Road.
  Traffic delays of between 15 and 20 minutes can be expected.
  The closure was not announced in the information provided by the BLM for the article appearing in the Sept. 6 edition of The Owyhee Avalanche.
  However, during Tuesday's Board of County Commissioners meeting, community development coordinator Mary Huff mentioned that traffic delay warnings had been posted on the road.
  Dist. 1 Commissioner Jerry Hoagland said he had been in contact with BLM officials, but no discussion of traffic delays took place.
  Sheriff Larry Kendrick said the BLM had contacted his office about the delays, and that his deputies would be coordinating the temporary road closure.
  Horses subject to the gather may wander onto the road way when helicopters are herding them. The helicopters may also land on the roadway during the operation, Kendrick said.

County GOP sends commissioner nominees to Little

  After four hours of interviews and deliberations, the Owyhee County Republican Party Central Committee landed on a list of three people in the quest for a new District 3 county commissioner.
  All three nominees who will be forwarded to Gov. Brad Little for consideration have ranching backgrounds.
  The GOP met Monday at the Owyhee County Courthouse and chose Cindy Bachman, Ted Blackstock, and Steve Boren from a field of six applicants.
  Idaho Code requires Little to make an appointment within 15 days of receiving the nominations from the county precinct members.
  Other applicants seeking to succeed the late Joe Merrick on the Board of County Commissioners were Brian Collett, Russell Dygert and Wyatt Frederick.
  Repeating a duty that was carried out in April to nominate a new sheriff, committee members asked each candidate 14 lengthy questions during Monday’s proceedings inside Courtroom 1 in Murphy.
  Boren currently serves a non-partisan role at a member of the Bruneau-Grand View School District board of trustees. He previously served on the Owyhee Cattlemen’s Association board of directors.
  Boren is a rancher at Arrow B Ranches in Oreana
  Likewise, Blackstock previously served as an OCA director, including one year as board president.
  Bachman is married to rancher Frank Bachman. They are the parents of former OCA president Lynn Bachman.
  Cindy Bachman has served as vice-chair of the Owyhee County Land Use Planning Committee and chair of the committee's endangered species subcommittee and as co-chair of the Snake River Birds of Prey National Conservation Area Subcommittee.
  She also was part of the Bureau of Land Management's Lower Snake River Resource Advisory Council and served on the Idaho Tri-RAC Standards and Guides Subcommittee that made suggestions on grazing regulations.
  She also served as the Owyhee County Committee chair for the Farm Service Agency, and also was Bruneau River Soil Conservation District board member.
  Frederick opposed Merrick in the May 2022 Republican primary along with Andrea Owens.
  Merrick died on Aug. 12 in the first year of his fifth term as a county commissioner.
  Read the Aug. 30 edition of The Owyhee Avalanche for more on the nominees and process.

Bruneau-GV supplemental levy on May ballot

  Bruneau-Grand View School District patrons will be asked to vote May 21 regarding a proposed levy.
  During its March meeting, the district board of trustees approved a resolution to seek a supplemental levy that would seek property tax receipts of $650,000 per year for two years (a total of $1.3 million)
  On Wednesday, district officials will discuss the proposed levy and the district’s needs during the monthly School Talks public forum.
  Community members are invited to attend the forum to gather information and ask questions. The event will take place at 6 p.m., at Rimrock Jr.-Sr. High School.
  After a December request from the board to analyze the need for an operational levy, an ad-hoc committee recommended the two-year levy in light of a reduction in student enrollment and the loss of federal CARES Act (COVID-19) revenue.
  If passed, the levy would cost taxpayers $212.50 per $100,000 in taxable assessed value each year.
  The needs that the levy would address were included in the School Talks announcement:
  * $474,509 for salaries and benefits
  * $65,500 for technology services/supplies/equipment
  * $92,992 for athletics/salaries/benefits/supplies/tournaments
  * $16,999 for ground maintenance/building care supplies
  Trustees voted, 4-1, during their March 12 meeting to put the levy on the ballot.
  Today’s School Talks will answer community questions, including wording on the ballot, the need for the supplemental levy, the tax cost of the levy, how the funds will help in the proposed 2024-25 school year budget, and how the election outcome will affect academic and athletic programs in the future.
  Other questions are welcome, too.

BIA officers involved in fatal shooting

  A man died late Saturday morning after an officer-involved shooting in southern-most Owyhee County.
  According to releases from the Idaho State Police and the Owyhee County Sheriff’s Office, Bureau of Indian Affairs (BIA) law enforcement officers pursued a vehicle from the Nevada portion of the Duck Valley Reservation into Idaho.
  The male driver ran from the vehicle once he was in Owyhee County, and shots were fired.
  Despite the administration of immediate first aid, the man died from the injuries he sustained, according to the ISP press release.
  ISP investigators are handling the case at OCSO’s request, according to the state agency.
  Investigators are trying to determine what led to the pursuit and timeline of events leading up to the shots being fired.
  The Owyhee County Coroner’s Office is working to identify the decedent and the manner of his death.

Marsing council could set centennial budget

  A special meeting is planned Thursday to fund Marsing’s centennial celebration.
  Although the total budget is as-yet undetermined, an agenda for the 5:30 p.m., city council meeting reflects at least $2,500 in specific funding requests.
  The meeting will take place inside the council chambers (Sandbar Community Room) at City Hall, 18 Sandbar Ave.
  The specific requests include:
  * Up to $500 for fishing derby cash prizes. The derby will have an entry fee of $10 per person and $20 for a two-person team.
  * Up $1,000 for barbecue competition cash prizes. There will be a $50 entry fee, but the city will provide 2-ounce cups for tasting, judging sheets, pencils and possibly other supplies.
  Other elements of the celebrations, set for July 1-3, don’t have specific costs listed on the agenda:
  * A street dance will be free to the public, but the plan is to have a DJ provide music.
  * A salsa competition for which the city will provide tasting cups, judging materials and possibly other supplies. The number of prizes and whether they will be cash prizes has yet to be determined.
  * A scavenger hunt for which businesses will be asked to provide items, but city funds will be requested, too.
  * A 100-person formation for which flags are suggested
  * A community movie
  * A parade from the high school football field to City Park
  MSBT Law, which provides Marsing’s legal counsel, will sponsor an ice cream social.
  The agenda reflects the possibility that council members could come up with other ideas, too.
  The centennial planning committee meets for a third time at 6 p.m., today in the Sandbar Community Room. Other meetings were held Monday and on April 18.

Election 2022: Nettleton wins assessor post

  Owyhee County will have a new assessor in January.
  Murphy native Tiffany Nettleton defeated appointee Robin Monahan in Tuesday’s Republican primary election.
  There were no Democrats on the county ballot, so all candidates who won county elected positions Tuesday will assume office in January.
  District 3 incumbent county commissioner Joe Merrick handily won a three-way race, defeating Wyatt Frederick and Andrea Owens.
  Coroner Aaron Tines, an incumbent on probation for neglecting duties of his office, beat fellow Jennifer Stevenson, by 20 votes in an all-write-in election.
  Three county incumbents won uncontested elections, including Dist. 2 Commissioner Kelly Aberasturi, County Clerk Angie Barkell, and Treasurer Annette Dygert.
  In the District 23 legislative primary, Grand View Republican Tammy Payne put up a strong fight but lost the Idaho House Seat A race to Kuna’s Melissa Durrant.
  Tina Lambert came out on top in a four-way race for the House B seat.
  With no other parties holding primaries, Durrant and Lambert will represent District 23 in the Statehouse for the next two years.
  Incumbent Todd Lakey of Nampa won the state Senate GOP primary against Steve Allmer. Lakey will face Democrat Mik Lose and Libertarian Jon Basabe in the November general election.

Atlatl throw returns to Jordan Valley this weekend

  The fifth annual High Desert Atlatl Throw gets underway Friday morning in Jordan Valley.
  Jordan Valley native Glen Fretwell continues to promote the ancient indigenous hunting technique that has evolved into a sport of skill and accuracy.
  The tournament, which is sanctioned by the World Atlatl Association, will get started each day at 10 a.m., from Friday through Monday.
  Fretwell is among five people who are committed to appear at the event, which will be held at the Oxbow Trailer Park on the east side of Jordan Valley. The facility is located on Oregon Avenue; look for the sign on U.S. Highway 95.
  Although five competitors have said they will attend, Fretwell said that there are always more unannounced contestants who drop in on the action.

  “Last year was a terrific year,” Fretwell said of the Labor Day weekend show.
  Fretwell’s niece, a schoolteacher named Vicki McConnell, also will compete. She made history at last year’s High Desert event with the highest International Standard Accuracy Contest (ISAC) score ever logged by a woman.
  McConnell lives in Arock.
  Other scheduled contestants include Washington state residents Bob Kitch from Husum near Hood River and Larry Nichols from Lexington, which is just north of Vancouver.
  The Jordan Valley event is one of the few in the West now that the Valley of Fire contest in Las Vegas has been suspended, Fretwell said.
  The next regional event will happen later this week at the Rabbit Stick festival in Rexburg.

Bruneau-GV tech ed offerings in spotlight

  The district’s career technical education (CTE) instructors will lead the next School Talks beginning at 6 p.m., on Wednesday, Jan. 17.
  The forum, which is open to the public, will originate inside Room 102 at Rimrock Jr.-Sr. High School, 39678 Hwy. 78, in Bruneau.

  Dygert is also the school’s woodshop teacher.
  After a brief presentation, the district’s three CTE teachers will take visitors on a tour of their rooms.

  The tour also will show how the Bruneau-Grand View curriculum helps students prepare for careers in Technology and Agriculture.
  Participants will be encouraged to ask questions and see what opportunities students have when they take a CTE course at Rimrock.

  Although this event is focused on the CTE programs, patrons are welcome to bring up any topic or question during the one-hour meeting.
  The CTE programs are part of the school district’s mission to provide its students with a high-quality education, preparing them for the future and enabling them through that process to become positive contributors to society.

Property tax reduction filing deadline approaches

  With the filing deadline fast approaching, Owyhee County Assessor Tiffany Nettleton is encouraging residents who qualify for property tax benefits under the Property Tax Reduction Program (commonly known as the Circuit Breaker) and Veterans’ Property Tax Benefit to hurry and apply before the April 18 deadline.

Peaceful resolution after student brings weapon to Marsing school

  Marsing school officials erred on the side of caution Tuesday when a high school freshman was reported to have a gun in a backpack.
  In a Wednesday letter to parents, school district superintendent Norm Stewart explained that the school was not put in lockdown when the situation arose as a precaution against isolating the student who allegedly had the gun and escalating the situation.
  The ninth-grader and the gun were removed from a classroom after an Owyhee County Sheriff’s deputy was dispatched.
  “After the report was made to the high school principal (Sean Porter), a decision was made to contact the Owyhee Co Sheriff’s [Office] and immediately go to the classroom and secure the student and his backpack,” Stewart wrote in the letter. “The intent was to calmly secure the student without alarming him or forcing him into a situation where he felt he needed to access the potential weapon.
  “The fear of going into a full lockdown was the student with the alleged weapon would be forced into a locked room with other students and staff. Although some may feel the district should have gone into lockdown, this decision was made to protect all students and staff without creating a high-pressure situation of a district-wide lockdown.”
  Stewart may have been alluding to social media posts questioning why the school wasn’t locked down.
  Stewart also saluted the unidentified classmate who alerted the administration of the possible presence of a weapon.
  It was a perfect instance of “see something, say something,” Stewart said.
  “This situation is an outstanding example of how important it is for students to come forward and report potential dangers or other misbehavior,” Stewart said. “This student should be commended for his efforts to protect the students and staff of the Marsing School District.
  “We are all very fortunate this situation did not result in harm to others and that students and staff are safe.”

Fitness Court closer to reality in Marsing

  The Marsing City Council could commit more than $100,000 to a community effort to build a Fitness Court.
  During its regular meeting scheduled for Wednesday, the council is scheduled to discuss the idea of contributing $105,000 to the Owyhee Health Coalition’s effort to build a location where community members can get some exercise and stay active.
  The meeting starts at 7 p.m., inside the council chambers (Sandbar Community Room) at City Hall, 18 Sandbar Ave.
  According to the meeting agenda, the council’s investment will be fully refunded to the city as the OHC completes fundraising efforts now and in the future for the Owyhee County Fitness Project.
  About six weeks ago, the city received a commitment letter from the National Fitness Campaign (NFC) confirming that the City of Marsing was eligible to participate in the organization’s efforts to bring physical fitness initiatives to communities across the nation.
  The NFC has provided a $30,000 grant to get the ball rolling.
  Now, the city and OHC must come up with matching funds of up to $105,000. The NFC set a Nov. 1 timeline to secure other funding in order for the city — as sponsor of the grant — to receive the NFC money.
  The OHC already secured some funding from the Owyhee County Commissioners. During a Sept. 5 board meeting, commissioners approved a one-time gift of $10,000 in American Rescue Plan Act (ARPA) funds for the Fitness Court campaign.
  Marsing City Clerk and Treasurer Jolyn Thompson said the total cost of the Fitness Court is $155,000. Organizers must come up with a maximum of $20,000 (in-kind or cash) for a concrete slab and another $25,000 to pay for installation.
  NFC creates a comprehensive community wellness program based around a Fitness Court. The organization provides consulting and design services, education and promotional tools and public fitness programming.
  Thompson said the court would be installed in the northwest corner of the Marsing HUB’s grassy area on 8th Avenue West.
  Also on the agenda for Wednesday’s council meeting:
  • A proposal to transfer $500 from the general fund into the Planning and Zoning fund and to start contributing to the Local Government Investment Program.
  • An update on Child Pedestrian Grant from city engineer Kirby Cook from Civil Dynamics
  • Reports from city attorney Stephanie J. Bonney and Owyhee County Sheriff’s deputy Caydin Chavez
  • A report from code enforcement officer Karis Young, which could include a vote on the city’s RV ordinance allowed time limit and a nuisance dog repeat offender.
  • Public works superintendent Philip Gibson will ask the council to consider approving irrigation system repairs.
  • Mayor Hayzen Corder will ask the council to move the December regular meeting — held on the second Wednesday (Dec. 13) — to Wednesday, Dec. 6.

  Even though there is a set topic, stakeholders have the opportunity to talk about any school topics on their minds.
  District superintendent Jeff Blaser and elementary school principal Alex Meyers also will be on hand.
  The plan is to hold a new School Talks open meeting on the fourth week of each month during the school year except in December and May. The goal is to facilitate better communication with parents and community members.
  Owyhee County Sheriff Larry Kendrick will make a fentanyl awareness presentation and the district’s drug and alcohol policy will be discussed during the Oct. 11 School Talks.
  Other School Talks topics have yet to be determined, but the other meetings will be held on Nov. 29, Jan. 24, Feb. 28, March 20, and April 24.

  Elevate Academy is now offering driver’s education for Homedale and Marsing students with a Marsing-specific class starting in January.
  Elevate Academy is located in Caldwell, and the driver’s ed. staff includes director Lisa Velasquez and administrative assistant Pam Howard, both of whom were involved when the Caldwell School District offered the education to Marsing’s prospective drivers. Howard said many of the same instructors from the Caldwell program have moved to the Elevate program.
  “We all certified teachers as instructors,” she said.
  Elevate has four new cars for the program, too. The program is accredited through the Idaho State Department of Education. Private driving schools are regulated by the Idaho Transportation Department.
  Session 1 for students from all areas has already begun.
  Session 2 for all students will run from Sept. 25 to Nov. 13. There are 36 openings in the class, which will be held from 5:30 p.m., to 7 p.m., each Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday at Elevate Academy.

  • An original, state-certified birth certificate issued from the state where the student was born. Copies aren’t accepted. Students must be 14½ years old on or before the day they purchase a permit.
  • Photo identification for both student and parent. Acceptable forms: Student activity card, yearbook, military card, etc.)

Bruneau Round-Up celebrates 40 years this weekend

  It has been a century since the first Bruneau Round-Up was staged. The competition, which takes place Saturday and Sunday, has been consistent for the past 40 years, though.
  Performances for the 40th annual Round-Up will start at 12:30 p.m., each day. The rodeo has been staged at its current location since 1984.
  The rodeo grounds are located at 29743 Hot Creek Road, one mile west of Bruneau and off Idaho highway 51.
  Kyle Colyer and Travis Bachman will call the rodeo action this weekend.
  Gary Gill will be honored all weekend as this year’s grand marshal.
  Admission each day is $10 for adults, and $8 for senior citizens older than 65 and children. Children younger than 6 get in free.
  In addition to the rodeo performances, there is slack after the rodeo on Saturday and at 10 a.m., on Sunday.

  There is also junior steer riding for the 14-and-younger set.
  The rodeo finale on Sunday is the Stock Saddle Bronc Calcutta. The top five riders from the stock saddle bronc rodeo performances are auctioned to the audience. Traditionally each rider brings between $1,000 and $3,000 in the auction, and the pot is split between the winning rider and their bidder.
  Homedale’s King Cattle Co., provides the stock, and Homedale’s Ben and Lori Badiola provided steers for team roping.
  Mutton busting takes place at 11 a.m., on Saturday. Registration is free, and organizers warn that the sign-up sheet fills fast.
  Other free youth events include 11 and younger Wild West roping on Saturday where children can rope a sheep and win a buckle, and ages 12-16 Wild West roping on Sunday where roping a calf wins a buckle.
  Another free competition is the Lotto ticket race for women 18 and older. Local businesses have donated tickets, which are spread around the arena so contestants can grab as many as they can.
  There are other happenings during the rodeo weekend, too.
  • American Legion Post 83 members play host to a roast beef dinner at 5 p.m., on Saturday at the Legion Hall on Belle Avenue.
  • A rodeo dance with music from the Jeff Palmer Band will be held from 8 p.m., to 1 a.m., on Saturday in the community park.
  • Cowboy Church is held at 9 a.m., on Sunday at the rodeo grounds.
  Some of the current board members are sons and grandsons of the original founding members.
  Today’s board includes president Brody Prow, vice-president Cooper Prow (Brody’s brother), secretary Bobby-Jean Colyer (she’s been on the board for 13 years), treasurer Tiffany Bachman, and public relations and marketing director Kelli Prow.
  Other board members are Van Prow, Jess Lisle, chute boss Joe Aquiso, Les Black, Will Aquiso, Webb Lisle, arena director Tub Blanthorn, Tom Buckingham and Ross Cameron.
  The board meets monthly throughout the year and then just about every Sunday from July until the rodeo in September.
  The board has been focused on much-needed rodeo grounds maintenance such as replacing old, wooden bleachers, installing restrooms, and constructing a new rodeo office.
