Show 4A Emery County Progress, Castle Dale, Utah -- - Tuesday, November 26, 1996 in length to accommodate trail- Joes Valley camping to close in 1997 By LAYNE MILLER Staff writer Joes Valley campground will be closed for most of next summer as U.S. Forest Service crews give it a major overhaul. Forest Service district ranger Charlie Jankiewicz told the Sun Advocate the closure will last at least until Labor Tidbits Day and cost an estimated $318,000. We are improving much of what is there, he said. Included in the improvements is a group site with a pavillion that will accommodate 50 We Visitors are divided equally were hoping for people. three new pavillions eventually, but this is the first. Joes Valley is the most popuSal lar spot on the Manti-La & National Forest. Forest Service officials indicate 100,000 people visit there each summer. Endings By Doris Quinn Staff writer be- tween Carbon and Emery county residents and those from the Wasatch Front. We regret the temporary inconvenience that closing Joes ers and 10 new toilets will be constructed. Many of the new facilities will be ADA acces- modern portantly, recreationists are different from those from that era. It was built for recreationists in the 60s, explained forest service recrewill cause, ation specialist Bill Broadbear. Valley Campground but we believe recreationists They typically went tent will be very happy with the camping in a stationwagon. said The people today using Joes improvements, Jankiewicz. Valley are bringing 20 and 30 The facilities at the popular foot trailers with them. It is recreation area were built in just not well suited for them. Besides the new group site, the early 1960s, so they are due for an overhaul, but more im camping pads will be increased sible. Meanwhile, the marina area and boat ramp, along with a few nearby camping spots will remain open all summer as usual. Jankiewicz and Broadbear suggest using the other dispersed camping sites available on the forest near Joes Valley. They admit the crush of campers could damage the resource if visitors are not careful where they camp and how they act. We suggest the Indian Creek Campground about six miles away said Broadbear. We would also urge visitors to use existing fire rings, and please remove their trash. Forest Service officials are also urging groups normally using Joes Valley to try other locations on the forest. The improvements at Joes Valley are the beginning of a whole list of changes visitors Sal will find on the Manti-L- a National Forest in the next few years. Another popular spot, Huntington Canyon, is slated for improvements in the next couple of years. Thanksgiving is such wonderful time each year as it brings to our minds the many things we have to be grateful for. One thing Emery County residents have to be grateful for is the opportunity to live here and raise our families in this county among so many good people. I have heard it said that Emery County people are a different breed, and I believe it. We are the type of people who will go out of our way to help our neighbors, friends, family and even strangers because we want to, not because we expect anything in return. Recently my children and I were on our way to Price when a rear tire on our car blew out. I got the car off the road and parked it. As we were getting in the trunk to get out our jack and spare tire a car passed us bv, then turned around and returned. It was J.D. Mangum and his brother Rod. They got out of their car and came to offer their assistance. They changed the tire, put the blown out one in my trunk, and put away the jack, too. As they were changing the tire I commented on how nice it was of them to turn around and help us. J.D. said that it was just the sheriffs deputy in him-h- e couldnt pass by a stranded motorist, and Rod told us of when his wife was stranded on the freeway near Ogden with a flat tire and was passed by several differ ent police officers, none of whom stopped to offer assis tance. This may be their explana tions for stopping to help us, but both of them have lived most of their lives in Emery County. They are part of the Emery County special breed. They have that special compassion for others, the desire to help out if they can. I am very grateful to J.D. and Rod for their assistance that afternoon, and I will never forget their kindness. I hope that as we gather around our Thanksgiving tables this Thursday we will be thankful for all our good neighbors and friends in Emery County, and that we will always remember we too are part of the Emery County special breed, Theatre Hotline 637-170- 5 New Movies start on Friday PRICE All $1.50c Seats JACK (PG) Robin Williams Nightly 7:00 - Fri.
