Show Page 5 The Garfield County Insider June 18, 2009 IN OUR TOWN MISSIONS FYI PANGUITCH By: Mack Oetting Well the 12th annual Quilt Walk Festival is over and by all reports, very successful. It would take the city directory to list the names of those who contributed chocolate, silent auction items, worked at each event, advertising, or spent time preparing the city for its “festival” look. We know who you are and have you on our excellent volunteer list. It makes it better, easier and less waste of time when you step up to the plate and recognize that this is a Panguitch project. And as a Panguitch resident you are automatically considered a Quilt Walk Festival volunteer. So thank you, thank you, thank you. Start making plans for next year. If you were not involved this year, why not???? Please don’t wait to be asked, Pat, Elaine and Claudia all are ready with assignments. We received many excellent suggestions to improve next year events and volunteers ready to participate. As always, the contributions and support given by the City Workers is hard to measure, but so necessary and welcomed. The Play had some new characters added, and getting back our old standbys really made things go smooth, and I believe the audience enjoyed themselves, many had seen the play many times, we sold out on Friday evening. Thanks to those who took part, we had large number of children that took part, they always make it fun, and the young ladies who sang real loud so we wouldn’t have to do the ending again. Claudia Crump said the quilting classes had 175 enrolled for a new record. She even offered a basket weaving class, it was good to see Claudia smiling again it was real good sign, many of her students said they would be back next year. The Quilt Show was viewed by a lot of people and there were well over100 quilts on display. Annette Hulet is the lady to talk to if you would like to show off your handiwork. Nan Nay’s quilt won “ people’s choice”; it will be used to advertise the Quilt Walk Festival next year. That just show’s that we raise the best in Panguitch. Congratulations Nan! Kay Hatch said that all of the venders will be back next year, a woman from Africa had material from there, sold out all that she had. A lot of work goes into setting up and taking down and this year we had the help of the boys school south of town. The Lions Club breakfast started off a little slow, but things started to pick up and they did real well. Lorena and Joe Decker had their petting zoo, and it is always a big hit. The heritage fair, taught many pioneer skills, making butter, corn husk dolls, candle making, quilting and tin punch as well as pottery and the children got to taste that awful boiled wheat that necessitated the walk to Parowan. We had our first tractor parade and there were some really great tractors in it, next year I think you’ll see many more, there are a lot of them around. Then came the highlight of the festival the Quilt Walk race, there were 4 teams this year. My favorite team was the one made of six kids, the oldest was about 5 and one kind lady, Maryann Mudge (Caryl Englestead’s daughter). It was a Kodak moment. A whole block is a long way to go but all the teams made it. Thanks to Sheriff Perkins and his men for blocking the streets. The Home tour was also a huge success with one home owner reporting 80 people coming through. It’s a lot of work getting these pioneer houses ready to show, thank you for sharing your homes. Mandy Soper directed the home tours—thanks Mandy; the proceeds go to the Sub for Santa Fund. The last night is always the hardest because everything must come down, many thanks to those who stayed and put everything away it is a huge endeavor, many thanks to those who stayed. Ladies and gentlemen that aren’t part of the cast you do such an incredible job of preparing the food and cleaning up after, we couldn’t do it without you, thank you very much. The Lions are hosting a breakfast for the BMW riders this Saturday. It will be at the Fair Building and it is open to the public it starts at 7am and goes to 9am. All Lions members if you could be there at 6am, it would really help. The Beemers are fun people to be around; they come from all over the country. Most are professional people and are very interesting to visit. They also contribute very heavily to Pat’s Sub for Santa fund. The opening of the Seniors Center was an outstanding success, over 96 meals were served. The place was packed, Escalante sent 10 beautiful people to the event. On a normal day Dora said she used to do about 40 meals, last week she had a day where they did 84 meals. Those that are coming out are averaging 25, up from 13, and gaining new people each week. The food is excellent and for $2.50 you can’t beat it. Besides the company is as good as it gets, with a lot stories every day. There will be a quilt on, and TV so you can stay after you eat for a little socializing. The Care and Share will be open this afternoon, June 18 at 2 to 5, Friday same time, and Saturday from 11am to 2pm. This is a wonderful facility, and a lot of work has gone into moving and we have had a tremendous volunteer force to bring this about. Kelly Anderson has the new store well stocked, she is asking for your patients this first time and hopefully all will go smooth. There is plenty of parking and Kelly is asking you to bring your own containers, there isn’t any place for cardboard boxes to be stored. The next big event in Panguitch is the Balloon Festival. Cheryl Church is the coordinator for this very wonderful happening. Saturday there is the balloon lift off, what a sights seeing these giants take to the sky. The noise from the heat- ers is deafening. You can go for a ride if you would like, just contact the City at (676-8585). There will be a Lions breakfast at Zions Bank at 7am. The Harley’s will be in town this weekend also. There will also be a horse races at the fair grounds. Brady Eyre runs this show and it’s a fun day and the concession stand will be open. That evening comes the highlight of the year with the Balloon Glow; this draws in about 3000 to 4000 people from all over the place. There is also great music on Main Street, and this last till ll pm. What a day something for everyone. The fishing is doing real good up at the Lake with many cutthroats being taken this year. Otter creek is also doing well, my neighbor Jack said they caught 3 trout in the #5 category.

SAFEGUARDING INFORMATION SAFEGUARDS YOU By Mickie Douglas Social Security Public Affairs Specialist At home, you can lock your doors. When it comes to your car, you can activate the alarm system. But what can you do to protect your identity? Identity theft is one of the fastest growing crimes in America. Someone illegally using your Social Security number and assuming your identity can be more trouble than a car thief or house burglar. Identity thieves can use your number and your good credit score to apply for more credit in your name. Then, they use the credit cards and do not pay the bills. You may not find out that someone is using your number until you are turned down for credit or you begin to get calls from creditors demanding payment for items you never bought. What better time than National Safety Month to educate yourself in protecting your personal information? Here are some quick tips: • Keep your Social Security card at home in a safe place, wherever you keep your important paperwork; • Safeguard your number as well — don’t give it to just anyone; many places you do business with may ask for it as a means of identification even though they can use other identifying information; and • Shred before you toss — identity thieves can rummage through your trash or recycling material and find a goldmine of information, so be sure to destroy any identifying information before you throw it out. While we’re talking about safety, here’s another great tip: if you receive a benefit from Social Security, get direct deposit. With direct deposit, your payments are electronically sent right to your account and there’s no risk of a payment being lost in the mail or stolen from your mailbox. At Social security, signing up is quick, easy, and secure. Visit www.socialsecurity.gov/deposit to learn more. Read our online fact sheet about identity theft at www. socialsecurity.gov/pubs/10064.html. If you believe someone may be using your number or identity, you should contact the Federal Trade Commission at www.ftc.gov/bcp/edu/microsites/idtheft, or call 1-877-IDTHEFT (1-877-438-4338) (TTY 1-866-6534261.) |
