Thermopolis Council discusses sanitation changes

Independent by Mark Dykes
Tuesday night, Thermopolis Town Coun-
cil discussed the possibility of a rate change
for sanitation.
Mayor’s Assistant Fred Crosby pointed
out there is a deficit of more than $24,000 in
sanitation, per the January financial state-
ment. In the past, Crosby said, they’ve let
it play out until the end of the fiscal year in
June, and if they are still in dire straits they
may need to make some changes in sanita-
tion and landfill, such as raising the cubic
yard rate.
Council member Tony Larson questioned
if it would be better to use a scale rather
than by the cubic yard charge. It might have
been less expensive five years ago, Town En-
gineer Anthony Barnett said, but with the
likelihood of a transfer station on the horizon
there wouldn’t have been enough savings to
justify putting in the scale then moving it to
another location.
It was further noted at the meeting that
there would be a scale at the transfer sta-
tion, and it’s hoped the landfill will remain
open for construction materials.
Following a brief public hearing, during
which no comment was given for or against,
council approved 2019-2020 liquor license
renewals for Mac’s, Thermopolis Café, Re-
ese and Ray’s IGA, Loonie’s Bin, Grand Cru
Enterprises, Maverik, Safari Club Lounge,
Thermopolis Liquors, Las Fuentes and VFW
Post No. 2281. A bar and grill and microbrew-
ery license was renewed for One Eyed Buf-
falo. Though Front Porch was also on the list
for renewals, it was noted that Krista Ray-
mond is not renewing the license, making
March 31 the last day alcohol can be served
at the restaurant.
With a change in ownership of Pizza Hut,
the liquor license there is not being renewed
at this time, and as liquor licenses are non-
transferable the restaurant is currently not
able to sell alcohol.

Lee takes up
mending business
from Hurlburt
by Mark Dykes
Around the home of Melba Lee you’ll find custom curtains, sheets,
chair covers and mink throw pillows – pockets included – all hand-
made by her.
Lee opened her sewing and mending business, Melba Lee De-
signs, last week and has already been busy with customers. She
noted Doris Hurlburt called her last week and chose to refer any
calls she gets these days on to Lee.
Hurlburt said she officially closed up her shop on Jan. 31, but
was waiting for someone to pick it up because she knew there are
a lot of people who would want it. She’s done sewing and mending
for 24 years, and appreciates all the support she received and the
nice people who came to visit.
But, this not the first time Lee has set up a Thermop shop.
“I did have a shop 17 years ago here,” Lee said, “and several of
the people I go to church with remember me from then and were
eager for me to get here.” Born and raised in Oklahoma, she moved
to Thermopolis 17 years ago but was only here for a few months be-
fore her mother became ill and she moved back. “My heart stayed
here, though.” This past July, her daughter brought her up on va-
cation and suggested Lee move back, which she did in September.
She’s aware fashion trends have changed in the time she’s been
away, with clothes being less expensive and more disposable, and
she expects the customer requests will reflect that change.
At her shop, Lee performs alterations, mending and zipper repair
or replacement. “I can also make special designs if I can get a good
enough description of what [people] want. I have made su shades
for the old John Deere tractors. I made one out of Wrangler jeans.
Girls have brought me their mothers’ bridal gowns and asked me
to update them so they could wear them and be in fashion. I made
a Queen of Hearts dress for a prom one year.
“I know that any of the talent I have come from the Lord,” Lee
said, and it’s a passion she’s pursued since she was about five years
old. “I would watch Mama, and then I would just start hand sewing
my Barbie clothes. By the time I was in teh eighth grade I was mak-
ing all of my school dresses. All but about five years of my life I’ve
had a room where I could alterations. I raised my kids doing sew-
ing. I S-E-W and I S-O-W for Jesus. I’m just and old ‘sew and sow.’”
As for prices, Lee said it varies depending on the amount of work
put into a project. She’s got plenty of thread to get the work done,
with several large spools on wall pegs and drawers full of small
spools. “There’s so many shades of every color, you just have to
have a supply.”
Lee is available by calling 307-480-8705

Our view Blast from the Past

Go Bobcats!
As you flip through the pages of this week’s
edition of the Independent Record, you’re sure
to notice that the Thermopolis Bobcats had an
incredible week and we sure are proud of these
young people.
The boys basketball team played a scorcher
against our age-old rival, Worland, and came
out on top.
The wrestling team took a 15 man team to
their regional contest, came home with first in
2A and all 15 of the young men are now quali-
fied for state.
The robotics team had their state competition
over the weekend and not only did well on their
own, they were chosen to be in an alliance with
another team and received a control award for
their efforts.
Robotics team member Krynn McGinty was
chosen for the Wyoming State Dean’s List for her
work with the robotics team, too.
The speech team competed in Worland for
two days, not only winning the 1A-2A division,
but placing second over all, beating out 3A and
4A teams in the process. Every member of the
team was on stage for final awards and every-
one brought home hardware.
Our Bobcats are a source of pride for this
town and we often forget how much effort these
kids are putting into their activities and sports.
There are early morning practices and late night
rehearsals, fundraising and camps, all to get to
this peak of performance.
Here’s a cheer for all our Bobcats!
GO CATS!

Spring drama plans

Rehearsals have begun for The musical is the story of

the spring production by the Hot
Springs County High School’s
drama team.
During the first week in April,
they will be presenting the mu-
sical, “Pirates of Penzance,” a
comic opera in two acts with
music by Gilbert and Sullivan.
Frederick and Mabel, a mis-
fortune of a leap year birthday
and a sense of duty along with
pirates and the “Modern Major-
General.”

Students in London Jenks’ science class recently tried out their creations at Hellie’s TeePee Pool. Jenks said they
were learning about Newton’s Three Laws of Motion. One of the forces they were learning about was buoyancy
and they had to mathematically prove that their boats would support the weight of two individuals prior to put-
ting their boats in the water. Jenks has done this each year with his Physics students and he said its one of their
favorite activities. Students also had to identify ‘third law force pairs’, which are action-reaction pairs as they
related to the forces on their boats – for every action there is an equal and opposite reaction force. Pictured in
their sinking boats are, left to right, McKayla Layman, Aaron Hanson, Joshua Canfield and Jeffery VanAntwerp.

Not to early to start your preparing for spring garden work

Even though the current
temperatures may not show it,
Spring is right around the corner
and now is a good time to start
thinking about getting your gar-
den ready for planting.
One of the first, and easiest
things to do to start prepar-
ing is getting out your garden
tools and checking them over
to make sure they’re in good
before planting can ensure a
good start for everything from
flowers to tomatoes, and you
don’t have to invest a lot of mon-
ey in getting them started.
You could purchase peat pots
or seedling pods, but there are
economical and practically free
ways to start your seedlings.
For instance, you can use
newspaper to make small boxes
use toilet paper rolls, egg car-
tons, ice cube trays, yogurt con-
tainers, paper cups and even
orange or grapefruit halves for
planting.
The great thing about most of
these planting ideas is they can
go directly into the ground with-
out disturbing the tiny plants.
Planting two or three seeds in
each of your chosen containers
the moisture up at root level.
Its a good idea to keep them
covered loosly with plastic wrap
or clear plastic bags until the
seeds germinate, creating your
own little individual green hous-
es. And light is a must, keeping
the seedlings between 65 and 75
degrees for germination.
Another right of Spring is
working the soil in your garden.

Pick up a handful and squeeze
it together to form a ball. If the
ball easily falls apart by pressing
your fingers against it or drop-
ping it, its dry enough to dig.
If it keeps its shape or breaks
with difficulty into solid sections
rather than loose soil, it still has
too much water in it.

You can add compost, manure
or mulch and work it through

lings or plants into the ground.
If you want to know exactly
what your soil needs for your
plants to grow successfully, have
a soil test done. They can let you
know what the pH is, whether
your soil is acidic, neutral or al-

They trailed by 15 points in the

Speech takes first at Worland

It was another successful
weekend for the Bobcat Speech
and Debate Team – one for the
books as they brought home first
place at the Worland “Worlando
Beach” tournament.
The team not only secured
first place in 1A/2A, but placed
second overall behind 3A Ri-
verton.
Every member of the Bobcat
team broke into finals at the
tournament, bringing home a
total of 12 awards.
“This really was an incredible
weekend for the team,” coach
Cindy Glasson said. “In the 10
years I’ve been with this team,
I cannot recall a time when ev-
ery single kid broke into finals.
Its unheard of.”
“This tournament was un-
precedented,” coach Lyle Wiley
added. “I have never heard of a
team with 10+ competitors in a
tournament, even, say a small
tournament, break every single
one of their students into finals.
Amazing! Plus it is remarkable
that we outscored all the 4A
teams and were second only to
Riverton in total sweeps.
“I think we’ss be going into
culminating events, State and
National Qualifiers, hot, with
everyone performing at a high
level. That makes us a scary
team, not just for 1A/2A teams,
for everyone.”
Kyle Mosser brought home
fifth in drama and fourth in poet-
ry while Aaron Hanson brought
back seventh in POI and third
in duet with his partner, Lane
Randall.
Hannah Hu placed first in
informative and fourth in ora-
tory. Freshman Jean-luc Willson
brought back third in extemp.
Ashley Brawley placed third
in humor and sixth in duet with
her partner, Kris Lahoe, and Ka-
tie Burrows placed sixth in hu-
mor as well at seventh in duet
with her partner Reilly Russell.
Rounding out the awards
were Breeze Petty and Tyler Kay
with first place in duet.
“Our biggest competitor on
the circuit is Greybull,” Glasson
said, “and their coach and I have
a tendency to poke fun at each
other over who’s coming home
with first every weekend. We
both keep really close track of
how the other team is doing
during the weekend, counting
points and breaks, but Satur-
day he said, ‘We were keeping
up with you until you dropped
in those four duet teams.’ That
made me feel great, knowing an-
other coach recognized our duet
teams are killer.”
All four of the Bobcat duet
teams were in the final round
– more than half of the seven
performers.
“Its amazing to see our kids
dominating an entire event,”
Glasson said.
This weekend the team will
travel to Greybull for their tour-
nament, the last regular season
tournament before State and Na-
tional Qualifiers.with first place
in 1A-2A.

The bill allows counties to create a County

and be used for erecting or constructing improve-

Museum fundraising still going strong

The Hot Springs County Pioneer Association
began a funding drive last October to raise mon-

Hot Springs County Museum on the west side.
To date, those efforts have realized more than
half of the association’s $105,000 goal, collected
and in the bank.
The association’s contract for deed has been
extended until the end of March, so the initia-
tive continues. There is currently a challenge to
the public — for every dollar donated, it will be
matched — dollar for dollar — up to $10,000.
A legitimate question has been raised, that
being, “If you don’t raise all that amount, what
will become of the monies already donated?” The
answer is that the association will return all do-
nations if necessary, but is committed to raising
the entire amount and they anticipate reaching
the goal soon.
Another legitimate question asked is “What are
the plans and timeline for the property once it has
been acquired?” The answer is that the ultimate
goal for the property is to add an addition onto
the museum to meet the pressing need for more
exhibit and storage space for the ever-expanding
collection of relics and artifacts.
The association has been blessed with a variety
of heirlooms, art, relics and collectibles — many
of them rare — making the Hot Springs County
Museum the envy of make like-purposed insti-

INSURANCE
Picking the right insurance coverage for you and your fam-
ily isn’t just about understanding your insurance choices and
selecting the right policy – it’s also about finding the right in-
surance agent for your insurance needs.
Independent Agent, Captive Agent,
Insurance Broker – What’s the difference?
You have options. An independent agent may have con-
tracts with several different insurance companies. A captive
agent (sometimes called a direct agent) writes exclusively with
one company. Independent and captive agents represent the in-
surance company and receive a commission from that compa-
ny. More complicated insurance transactions, such as those for
a small businesses, may use an insurance broker. An insurance
broker represents your company in the local insurance market
to find the maximum coverage for the best possible cost. Bro-
kers generally charge a fee for their services.
Develop your knowledge of insurance to help you make
informed decisions about the coverages you and your family
need. Understand the terms and coverages to help you select the
most appropriate agent and policy.
Finding the right agent for your needs.
• Referrals from Family, Friends, Neighbors, Col-
leagues –79% of consumers indicate they asked family and
friends for insurance advice. Find out why they like the agent.
Is it the customer service? Is the agent friendly and knowledge-
able? Did the company do a good job handling a claim? Have
their rates increased or decreased over the past three years?
Does the agent review their policy annually for the best cover-
age at the best price?
• Internet – When searching for a line of coverage on the
internet, read carefully. Be certain that the agent or company is
licensed and that they answer your questions appropriately. Be
cautious of questionable marketing tactics.
• Trade Associations or Other Business Owners – Small
business owners can talk with local trade associations or other
similar business owners with related insurance needs.
• Not all insurance companies use agents. You can do
business directly with many companies. Purchasing coverage di-
rectly online from the company could be cheaper because they
don’t have to pay an agent a commission, but be a wise consumer.
Wyoming Department of Insurance
http://doi.wyo.gov / 1 (800) 438-5768
Whatever your choice, check that the company and
agent are licensed in Wyoming.
When selecting an Agent consider the following. For
help in answering these questions go to: NAIC Consumer In-
formation Source (CIS) web page(https://eapps.naic.org/cis/)
or contact the Wyoming DOI.
• Personality – Have conversations with prospective
agents. Explain your situation and ask for a quote. Get a feel for
how they work and if you’re comfortable with their style.
• Credentials –Ask about their credentials or designations
earned from various insurance groups or associations.
• Licensing – Make sure the agent and the company are
licensed in Wyoming. Check company licensing information at
the website above or contact the DOI.
• Complaints – Check if they’ve had complaints filed
against them.
This public service announcement is presented and paid for by the insurance companies licensed to do
business in Wyoming in cooperation with the Wyoming Insurance Department. For more information on
the state’s insurance companies, including financial information, visit the Insurance Department website’s

Selecting
an Agent
• Financial Strength of the Company – Check the com-
pany’s financial rating.
• References – Don’t be afraid to ask a prospective agent
for references.
• Ask Questions - If you’re not sure what questions to ask
or you would like more guidance on how to evaluate a potential
agent contact the DOI.
What to Expect:
• Answers to Your Questions – If you have any questions
about the quote or coverages, this is the time to ask. An agent
should never leave a question unanswered prior to your pur-
chase.
• Choices – If you’re using an independent agent, you’ll
have choices of companies and coverages. Evaluate the options
to make sure you’re choosing the policy best suited to your sit-
uation.
• Company Explanation – ask why he/she chose that
company and why the agent is placing your coverage with that
company.
• Honest Sales – You shouldn’t feel pressured to choose
an agent, a company or a quote. If an offer seems too good to be
true, it probably is.
Protect Yourself. Insurance fraud
can happen to anyone, anywhere.
• Don’t give out any personal information like your Social
Security Number or bank information until you have verified
the legitimacy of the insurance company and agent with the
DOI.
• Ask for copies of all paperwork you sign. Keep a copy of
the payment receipt or check for the initial premium payment.
• Call the insurance company if you don’t receive a copy
of the insurance policy outlining your coverage and its limita-
tions within 30 days of your purchase.
Remember to always:
 Stop before writing your check or signing the contract.
 Call the Wyoming DOI if you have questions.
 Confirm that the agent and company are licensed in
Wyoming.

National FFA Week •

Students celebrate FFA week

The National FFA Organi-
zation was founded in 1925 by
agriculture teachers Henry C.
Groseclose, Walter Newman,
Edmund Magill and Harry
Sanders in 1925 at the Virginia
Polytechnic Institute, as Future
Farmers of Virginia.
Originally named Future
Farmers of Virginia, in 1928 it
became known as Future Farm-
ers of America, established by
33 students from 18 states, and
in 1988 became the National
FFA Organization, or simply
FFA. In 1929, national blue
and corn gold became the or-
ganization’s official colors and
1933 saw blue corduroy jackets
adopted as the Official Dress.
Though restricted from the
early forms of FFA in 1930,
women gained full FFA mem-
bership in 1969. Today, women
represent more than 45 percent
of FFA members and about half
of all state leadership positions
Another name change in
1988, and it became the Na-
tional FFA Organization, or
simply FFA.
Today, it is among the larg-
est youth organizations in the
United States, with more than
650,000 members who belong to
more than 8,500 chapters across
all 50 states, Puerto Rico and
the Virgin Islands.
Every year chapters across
the country celebrate National
FFA Week. For 2019, the cel-
ebration is designated for the
week of Feb. 16-23, with the
theme of “Just One.” Among
the local activities this week
are the popular petting zoo on
Thursday, Feb. 21 from 10 a.m.
until 2 p.m. at the ag building.
Though there’s plenty of ac-
tivity during the week, the en-
tire year sees FFA students do-
ing projects at the local, county
and state levels. State conven-
tion this year is scheduled for
April 10-13.
FFA Advisor Britton Van
Heule stated, “We have had an
outstanding year. Our Ag Is-
sues team getting second in the
state was one of the highlights
at state convention. We are fo-
cusing on Leadership Develop-
ment Events, and proficiency
awards. This has continued this
year. We had multiple Proficien-
cy award winners, and Jessie
Pennoyer was a National final-
ist. These are all content areas
that we are putting lots of em-
phasis on. The addition of the
science fair last week is part of
the implementation of some new
curriculum [for grades] 7-12.
We are really excited about the Officers, left to right: President Barb Kissel, Secretary Audrey Axtell, Sentinel
results and what the state sci- Remington Ferree, Vice President Jeffery VanAntwerp and Treasurer Emme
ence fair will bring. It is going Norsworthy. Not pictured is Reporter Rebekah Johnson.
to be a great spring, as we get
started on all of our contests.”
