Escalante premiere by award winning playwright and actor, Raymond King Shurtz. Theatre 4S NYC, the Jean And Ken Cambpell Foundation, and the Boulder Heritage Foundation, are proud to present BOHEMIAN COWBOY, written and performed by award-winning playwright and actor Raymond King Shurtz in the garden at The Escalante Outfitters, in Escalante, Utah. About The Show In November of 2005, Raymond Dean Shurtz, of Escalante, Utah, walked into the desert in Clark County, Nevada, The Valley of Fire, and simply disappeared. For two years, Nevada detectives, Nevada Search and Rescue, psychics, private detectives, and family and friends, searched for his body. Mr. Shurtz has never been found. Thus began the frantic search of his son, playwright and actor Raymond King Shurtz. A honky-tonk singer, a cowboy, a carpenter, and a traveler of mythic proportions, the senior Mr. Shurtz left an array of mysteries as a "disappearing specialist". In an attempt to unravel these mysteries, his son writes and performs the legacy his father left him, using the same characteristics as his father, the original "disappearing specialist" and "bohemian cowboy". BOHEMIAN COWBOY is also a portrayal of a theatre artist, bohemian, and a cowboy, still searching for the West. About The Team Raymond King Shurtz was the 2003 recipient of The Arizona Commission on the Arts Playwriting Fellowship, for Blue Baby, A Memoir, and is the author of 31 plays, published by Samuel French and Anchorage Press. His plays have been produced worldwide, several in NYC by the renowned underground theatre, Theatre 4S NYC. Marshal Mason, Founder and Artistic Director of Circle Reparatory of NYC, in reviewing him as an actor in the play, Duel Pardon said: "Best of all is the modulated, layered, four-dimensional characterization by Raymond King Shurtz as the central convict. His performance is so persuasive and detailed that it's hard to remember he's acting. Not since the stunning Fair Judges Orientation: tour de force by Anthony Hopkins in The Silence of the How To Be A Fair Judge Lambs have we had an opportunity to understand the intriThursday, August 7, 2010 cacies of so complex a criminal."

Jean and Ken Campbell Foundation After being closed for a couple years due to concerns over public safety, the Cascade Falls National Recreation Trail has been reengineered and will be open in time for Pioneer Day (July 24). The Forest Service has made a major financial commitment to complete trail work to reroute the trail and stabilize erosive soils to make the trail ready again for public use. "In the past the Cascade Falls National Recreation Trail has been the highest use trail on the Dixie National Forest," said Charlie Marsh, Acting Cedar City District Ranger. "We are thrilled to have the trail open again to the public. It is one of the highlights for visitors to Cedar Mountain." The 0.8 mile foot trail (one way) and is reasonably flat and is a great trail for beginners and families. Hikers on the trail are treated to spectacular views of the Virgin River Rim country and Zion National Park. The trail ends at a waterfall that flows out of the side of the cliffs. The waterfall comes out of a lava tube connected to Navajo Lake. (Please note that the lava tube is unsafe and closed to exploration because of low oxygen levels and high water flows.) To reach Cascade Falls, take Highway 14 East for 25.5 miles, turn right towards Navajo Lake on FS Road #30053, take your first left onto Forest Service road #30370. Follow this road until you reach the junction with FS road #30054. Follow the signs to Cascade Falls and turn right onto FS road #30054. This road will dead end at the Cascade Fall trailhead.
