Show April PRIPANGUITCH HELP WANTED drivers, wielders, medical field job all require schooling. Pat was very impressed with Mr. Bell. I found that the volunteers honored, age was not a requirement. The Youth Service Award honors youth ages 12-18, went to Maggie Brown, who works with children with severe disabilities at the "Now I Can"Foundation in Provo. The oldest was Gaitha Butterfield from Weber County. Grandma Gaitha works with students with their reading skills and dedicates 20 hours a week at this endeavor, at Green Acres Elementary, oh yes Mrs. Butterfield is 98 years young. We were joined for dinner at the banquet by Leon and Claudia Crump, long time friends and part of the Quilt Walk committee, Claudia is in charge of the Quilt show and classes. Our daughter Kelly Anderson was also there for dinner and was there for the week long convention on voluntarism. Last night was the Junior Prom and it was the first one I have missed in a long time, sorry. I heard it was wonderful, the Students and their Parents always do a great job with the decorations and was told the tree that was the center piece was very impressive. I have been following this class since they were in the first grade; there are 25 girls and only 5 boys. I told the girls then that had better be nice to the boys if they wanted a date for the Junior Prom, however a lot of the girls were bigger than the boys, and the girls didn't give them any slack. Last week the FBLA and Sterling Scholars went to their competition. Both had great success and the experience of a life time. FBLA was in Ogden and Tyler Brinkerhoff took third in business calculating and the rest of the team felt that the experience was very positive. Many of the seniors in the FBLA club went down to St. George for the Sterling Scholar Competition where they could receive the possibility of a scholarship. The Sterling Scholars from Bryce Valley and Panguitch did real well, with Riley Savage, receiving runner up in Art. At many of the larger schools, the students only compete for one of these teams like, FCCLA, FBLA, Sterling Scholar, Debate, etc. and have the whole year to pre- pare. The advantage small schools have is the students are a lot more rounded, due to all of these opportunities. Next week is the SOUND OF MUSIC, musical and it starts on Wednesday. April 21st and runs through Saturday the 24th. Elaine Baldwin and Cheryl Church, feel the extra time they have had to put on this production is going to be a real plus for the audience. The Drama team will be going to State Drama in Cedar City on Tuesday the 19th, with 29 students competing. Steve Marshall will be competing in Utah's first Iron Man Competition to be held in St. George, on May 1st. Steve has been training all winter long, wearing warm clothing. He went down yesterday to ride the bike part of the race, 112 miles. The rest of the race consist of a 2 mile swim to start off with, then the bike ride and finally a 26 mile marathon. This race is rated as one of the hardest, about 600 in the world. Swimming in fresh water is a lot harder than in the ocean. Steve is hoping to qualify for the Iron Man in Hawaii. Judy Henrie called and said her grandson Trevor was visiting and they went down to Laverikin to Luwaun Hatch's funeral. She said her twin grandsons, Michel and Colby Anderson, got their Mission calls. Michel is going to Anaheim California Spanish speaking mission and Colby is going to Carlsbad, California and also Spanish speaking. Trac Norris also received his mission call and he is going to Peru. The elevation in Peru is really high and this may help him in his running career, on his P days. Sorry to read where long time writer for Escalante, Jana is hanging it up. I met Jana at a 5 County meeting. She was carrying a grant for the fire station in Escalante, it was very impressive, and the Board approved the Grant. Escalante had tried two other times and were turned down. I understand that the station is now under construction. Jana you can take great pride in what you have done to bring a long needed Fire Station to Escalante. Keep up the good stuff.

But anglers in southern Utah know different. They know spring is "really" here when the ice starts to come off the surface of southern Utah's fishing waters. When that happens, they know hungry trout will be cruising the shorelines of lakes and reservoirs in the area, looking for their first meal of the spring. Mike Ottenbacher, regional aquatic manager for the Division of Wildlife Resources, says the ice has melted off several reservoirs in southern Utah. And it will be melting soon at many others. If you want to get in on the action, Ottenbacher suggests trying the following waters: Otter Creek State Park: Otter Creek Reservoir will likely be ice-fee by the time you read this, and some nice rainbows will be cruising its shoreline. A good water year in the Sevier River Basin has filled the reservoir almost to capacity, That means conditions will be good for fish this year. The trout will grow fast through the summer. If the wind is blowing on the reservoir, try fishing the stream immediately below the reservoir. Or you can go farther downstream and fish the portion of the stream that flows through the Kingston Canyon Wildlife Management Area. Newcastle Reservoir: The ice is off this reservoir west of Cedar City. You can catch a variety of fish here, including rainbow trout, smallmouth bass and wipers. Try for the trout now, and then go for the smallmouth and wipers after the water warms up a bit. Lake Powell: Lake Powell is a perennial spring favorite. There isn't any water in Utah or the rest of the West that compares to it. Look for fishing to improve around "spring break" time and to keep getting better. The rising water level is flooding the vegetation that has grown at the lake in recent years. And that means better habitat for the fish and great fishing in 2010. "Future" spring fishing spots: Heavy snowpack and cold spring weather in southern Utah means ice-off will be a little later than normal at many waters this year. Some spots to try as they open up later this spring include Fish Lake, Panguitch Lake, and lakes on the Beaver Mountain and Boulder Mountain. The large amount of snow received in southern Utah this past winter should result in full reservoirs and lakes. And that means great fishing through the summer. Ice-off and spring fishing tips The neat thing about fishing at ice-off and during early spring is that about any technique or type of gear you use will work. And you don't need a boat to be successful. In fact, in the spring, fishing from the shore is often better than fishing from a boat. Gravel shorelines and rocky points near shore attract large rainbow trout that are cruising the shorelines looking for a place to spawn.
