This year the only Primary Election that will be held in Garfield County is a Republican Primary. Voters not affiliated with a party, will be allowed to make the change at the polls on election elec-tion day by filling out a new voter registration form. Satellite Registration will be held in both, Escalante and Panguitch, June 14 and June 17. The deadline for by-mail registration regis-tration has passed. Voters can register at the Garfield County Clerk's office any day until June 17. This year a change to the Republican Party process will mean a change to the way voters are accustomed to voting in a primary. The Republican Party now required that voters who want to vote in the primary be officially registered with that party. Voters who are currently not affiliated with a party can make that change by completing a new registration form at the Garfield County Clerk's office in Panguitch or at a Satellite Registration at the Escalante Senior Citizens Center June 14 or 17. Garfield County Clerk Camille Moore encourages everyone to check their party affiliation before going to the polls. If anyone has questions or want to check their voter registration reg-istration record, please contact the Clerk's office at 1-800-636-8826, Ext. 100 or 676-1 100. Please exercise your right to vote. on June 25.

Bryce Canyon Airport was the smallest airport and only one of five to be recognized for their commitment to safety. Bryce Canyon Airport Manager Receives Plaque At Conference BRYCE CANYON - Bryce Canyon Airport Manager Greg Pollock received special recognition recog-nition by way of a plaque presented pre-sented to him at a recent Airports Conference held in Denver, Colo. Pollock attended that three-day three-day event for the Federal Aviation Administration's Northwest Region. That region services seven western states and only five awards were presented pre-sented to airports from those states. Bryce Canyon Airport was the smallest airport to receive an award and "of all the awards we could have received, this is the one that's most important," impor-tant," said Pollock. Bryce Canyon Airport was cited for their outstanding commitment com-mitment to complete safety initiatives ini-tiatives and provide a well maintained and safe airport for the community. Pollock was quick to note that the award was given after seven years of concerted efforts by himself and assistant airport manager Darron Matthews, the Garfield County Commissioners, Commission-ers, the Airport District Office in Denver, Armstrong Consultants of Grand Junction, Colo., the Utah Division of Aeronautics and the hard work of the Garfield County Road Department Depart-ment and County Engineer Brian Bremner. "These were seven years of . cumulative efforts to upgrade, improve upon and reach a high standard of excellence," noted Pollock. All the safety and maintenance mainte-nance issues and initiatives identified that past years are tied in with availability of funding and we have worked hard to take advantage of everything that has come our way.
