They were sponsored by Bryce Canyon City, and snacks, water, gatorade, and transportation were donated by Ruby's Inn. They really appreciate their sponsorship. The race is also a charity event for "In Our Own Quiet Way" which is dedicated to helping impoverished or underdeveloped regions around the world develop practical long term solutions to problems THANK YOU! The American Red Cross would like to thank the people of Utah for supporting our many blood drives during the summer of 2010. Without the help of dedicated sponsors and donors across Utah, the American Red Cross would not be able to maintain an adequate blood supply. Because of your generous donations, we were able to achieve our collection goals for June, July and August. These are definitely our toughest months of the year to collect blood. This goal could not have been possible without the help of many loyal blood donors. We'd like to extend our thanks to all the local radio stations for running our public service announcements. We would also like to thank the many corporate sponsors for donating food and refreshments for our donors. And a very special thank you to the donors who took time to give blood this summer. Thank you again for supporting Red Cross Blood Services. Because of donors and supporters like you, we successfully met our collection goals and more importantly made sure there would be blood available to patients in need. We could not do this without the tremendous support from our community. Best regards, John Petersen Public Relations Manager American Red Cross ROCK ART HIKE Escalante Petrified Forest State Park Saturday, September 25 10 a.m. — noon Celebrate National Public Lands Day with a guided hike to an ancient rock art panel.

WORKSHOPS OULDER Hogsback Heritage/Cliff Notes Writing Workshop Award winning Nevada poet Gailmarie Pahmeier will visit Boulder as a part of the Cliff Notes/Hogsback Heritage Writing Workshop, October 8-10. Pahmeier will teach the poetry sections of the workshop, while local writer Dianne Oberhansly covers fiction, and former Utah Poet Laureate David Lee tunes up Hogsback Heritage writers for this year's theme, "Artifacts." Friday and Saturday nights will feature these three writers in free public readings. Anyone with a passion for words, a story to tell or a desire for self-expression is invited to attend. Full workshop schedule and details can be found at www.boulderheritage.org Voicing the Rhythm of the hand' A Multi-Age, Multi-Experience Creation Billy Raaen and Grace Totherow are combining their multiple talents in a workshop series, "Voicing the Rhythm of the Land." It will offer children, teens, and adults a unique, creative extravaganza of writing, story-telling, movement, rhythm, and rattle-making. Each workshop will target one of the three age groups, scheduled throughout October. The month of exploration 1,AL culminates with a commutnnelingsongs nity sharing and campfire freeflowt. celebration of the land and people, past and present, of Boulder. In Grace's words: "Rhythm sessions and percussive instrumentmaking classes are woven into the curriculum.

These modes of expression rekindle the oral tradition and experiential wisdom in a modern world accustomed to passive entertainment. This project can open creative pathways to people who never before considered themselves artists. It can empower communication, confidence, relationships between generations and genders, awareness of environment, and the importance of collaboration in a small community." "Voicing the Rhythm of the Land" is supported in part by the Utah Division of Arts and Museums, with funding from the State of Utah. Matching assistance is provided from Boulder Community Alliance and Red House Farm. Scheduling details are forthcoming.

This is what I did find out. The Girls Volleyball team had a very busy week, playing three games. Wednesday, the Lady Cats took out Escalante in three 25-6, 25-19 and 25-10. Thursday a good South Sevier team came here with the same results, the Cats in three, 25-19, 25-17 and 2512. On Friday they played Bryce Valley and again in three games, winning 2512, 25-8, 25-8. Against BV they tied the State record held by Morgan of 48 games won in a row. They are looking to break the record as they play Bryce Valley there on Tuesday. Last night Wednesday, Valley came to town to try out the Cats. On Friday night, September 24th there is the big rematch of Panguitch and Piute, at Piute. This will be a pink game, which means all gate receipts will be donated to the Huntsman cancer research. Come up and watch how good the Lady Bobcats are and help support this great cause. Last Saturday was the annual Panguitch Freshman. and Sophomore tourna- ment. Panguitch's young players showed that Cats could be contenders for years to come. They went undefeated beating Valley, Enterprise, North Sevier, Wayne and a very good Piute team for the Championship. The Baseball team also had another winning week taking out Bryce Valley 14 to 4 in 5 innings. However Valley came to town and played a real thriller of a game. I don't know the score but the Bobcats finally won it in thirteen innings. The Cats play Escalante there on Sept. 22 and at Piute on Friday 24th. Come early for the baseball game and stay to watch the Volley ball game afterwards, get two games for the price of one. The cross country team (boys) took 2nd again to the pesky Piute team. The meet was held here and we have a lot of good runners. Because of the Volleyball game with South Sevier the girls did not run. However both of the middle school teams did well and they all finished. The next meet will be tonight September 23 in Milford and on September 30 in Escalante. ficite Art actitery Sale20% off Many new works Some of old Panguitch houses 63 North Main •• Panguitch, Ut FEE FREE NATIONAL PUBLIC LANDS DAY ON SEPTEMBER 25 Secretary of the Interior Ken Salazar announced free admission to all National Park Service sites, including Glen Canyon National Recreation Area (NRA), on September 25.
