He moved to Phoenix in his 2()s but couldn't avoid the tug of the open range, or at least the rodeo. " That's me," he said. Gay pride was on display at the Utah State Fairpark last weekend for the gay rodeo, normally nor-mally a distinctly macho sport. In many ways, this rodeo was about celebrating people for who they are. "As gay people, we tend to leave the rural areas and go to the cities, because that is where the gay people are, but eventually eventual-ly we want to go back to our heritage her-itage and roots," said Brian Helander, a Phoenix nurse who grew up in Canada. Saturday's participants acknowledge the concept of gay rodeo probably draws snickers from those outside their community. commu-nity. From a seat in the rodeo stands, much of it looked like any other rodeo cowboys and cowgirls cow-girls getting bucked from broncos and struggling to lasso slippery steers and calves. But this rodeo did have a dash of panache. The goat dressing event, for example, required two-person two-person teams to dash 50 yards to a tethered goat, flip up its hind legs and strap on a pair of bikini briefs. It was Utah's third gay rodeo, part of a national circuit of rodeos held from San Diego to Cleveland. "The bar scene, unfortunately, seems to be what the gay commu-; nity" revolves around, Ogden native Brad Newey, 23, said. "It's great to see Utah actually prove that we're opening and broadenn ing our horizons." Utah stock companies weren't always warm to the idea of sponsoring spon-soring a gay rodeo, but times' have changed. "What's the difference? Their money is green," stock provider Danny Clegg said. "It's baffling for me, as tough as the rodeo business is." Hotline offers help for substance abusers It's estimated that one out of 20 Utalins has a substance abuse problem needing treatment. Are you, or someone you know, addicted to prescription medications, medica-tions, alcohol or illegal drugs and need help? What are the signs of addiction? What treatment options are now available for individuals who have a substance abuse problem? What can friends or loved ones do to help someone who has a substance abuse problem? Ihese and other questions about addiction will be addressed confidentially by two addiction experts from the Dayspring dependency treatment treat-ment program at LDS Hospital as part of the June Deseret NewsIHC Health Hotline. Callers can dial the toll-free hotline at 1-800-925-8177 from 10 a.m. to noon on Saturday, June 8. Callers do not need to identify themselves and all calls are strictly confidential. Calls are NOT broadcast. Calls will be answered by Michael Crookston, M.D., a certified cer-tified addiction psychiatrist and medical director of the Dayspring program, and LaMar Drollinger, a licensed clinical social worker at the Dayspring program. According to a recent Desert News series on addiction, state survey data indicates children as young as sixth grade are taking hard-core drugs like cocaine, sedatives and ecstasy. Experimentation with heroin starts showing up in surveys of eighth-graders. According to one survey of 4,365 Utah students, drug abuse begins showing up among children chil-dren in significant numbers among sixth graders. Seven percent per-cent said they had taken drugs in the past 30 days. By the time they get to the eighth grade, the nuniber is up to 15.5 percent, and by the l()th grade it is 19.3 percent. per-cent. Some 15.7 percent of high school seniors admitted to drug use in the previous 30 days, according to the series. Experts say addiction to prescription pre-scription drugs, such as painkillers, is becoming an epidemic epi-demic in Utah with people addicted to prescription drugs; coming from every race, gender,; income level and social status.

June is designated National Safety Month As part of National Safety Month, the week of June 2-8 has been designated as Driving Safely Week. The focus is on teen driving and child passenger safety. Teenage driving Crashes are the leading cause of death for teenagers - in some years the fatal involvement rate for teen drivers is three times higher than the overall rate. Statistically, teens make up less than seven percent of the nation's licensed drivers, but they're involved in 14 percent of all fatal crashes. The dismaying fact is that teen drivers are involved in more motor vehicle crashes than any other group. Teens who ride with other teens are also disproportionately dispropor-tionately vulnerable. Sixty-five percent of teen passenger pas-senger deaths occur when another anoth-er teenager is behind the wheel. Darkness presents yet another risk factor - 41 percent of fatal crashes involving teenagers occur at night, between 9 p.m. and 6 a.m. To help minimize the risk to teen drivers, the Utah Safety Council recommends setting these limits: Set limits on the number of passengers you will allow in the car when your teen drives.

If the "For Sale" sign in front of your house in the Park City area has become a neighborhood fixture, it is important to work with your agent to keep your listing fresh. Whenever your house is shown, the Realtor will get feedback from the buyers or other Realtors about what they liked about your house and what would not work for them. Allow your agent to be completely frank with you about any feedback he or she receives. Listen with an open mind and with the understanding that there is nothing personal about these comments. Don't delay in implementing any of the ideas that make sense to you. Your agenf s job is to corne up with new ideas for marketing your home in order to get buyers inside. Your job is to ensure that your house looks its best. For rock solid advice on buying or selling real estate, call Craig Reece at 435-647-8017 or toll free at l-800-554666.

Always require teens to tell you where they plan to go and what route they plan to take. Ask them to call home when they arrive at their destination. This discourages "cruising." Start young drivers out with short trips, accompanied by an adult at first. Allow teens to drive to a friend's house only if they'll leave the car there when they go out. This is a good way to break in new drivers and ease the fears of parents. Child safety seats One of the most common mistakes mis-takes parents make in restraining children is that they don't understand under-stand the need for different stages of child restraint use throughout a child's growth. Since many state laws only cover children through age two, many parents assume older kids are safe in just a seat belt. This is not the case! When children outgrow forward for-ward facing convertible seats at about age four and 40 pounds, they need to be restrained in a belt-positioning booster seat until they are big enough to properly fit in an adult seat belt.
