Circle. 8 Wednesday, June 6, 2018 News Iron County Today Cedar City Hospital named in nation’s Top 20 CEDAR CITY — The National Rural Health Association named Cedar City Hospital as one of the Top 20 Rural Hospitals in the nation for the third year in a row. This designation is awarded to rural hospitals with the highest scores in areas like quality, cost, outcome, financial security and patient perspective. Becki Bronson, Communication and Public Relations Manager for the hospital, said Cedar City Hospital is one of two hospitals to have received this award consecutively, and the standards that must be met are rigorous and scored by national companies, who track the date and outcomes of those standards every year. “A Top 20 Rural Hospital award says Cedar City Hospital was literally one of the best in the country for file photo a hospital our size,” Bronson said. A national association has named Cedar City Hospital among the best 20 in the country. Bronson also said the award is reflective of the care the hospital is able to provide to the community. “The award itself is merely reflective of the truly outstanding care our caregivers provide our patients and community,” she said. “They have countlessly comforted, and encouraged, and have gone out of their way to do what was best and right for our patients and families.” Bronson said receiving this recognition helps remind the community of the quality of services offered by the hospital. “Perhaps in a small, rural community like this, it’s a little easier to take for granted just how good we have it here with Cedar City Hospital and all it provides us,” she said. “This award helps clear away a little bit of that, as it reminds anyone who sees we have received this award that we have the very best healthcare in the country, right here for us to access, every single day.” debate Continued from page 2 that’s had to be in business and survive and make payroll and do those things and actually live under the regulation and rules that are there so we can appreciate what we can do to lessen those and make it easier on businesses,” he said. Bleak was asked what efforts his has made to address the need for retention and recruiting programs in the county during his first term as County Commissioner, and what he will continue to do. He said one of the first things he did was meet with department heads and figure out a way to restructure how Iron County employees are compensated, and that a raise based on a formula was able to be distributed in the past year. In addition, signing bonuses have been approved in order to save money and time in training. “I really feel that the most important asset we have in Iron County is our employees,” Bleak said. “We are continuing to work to finalize the plan to revamp the entire system which will make Iron County a better place to work, which will provide you with better services.” Rowley was asked about his dislike for campaign signs, and he related a childhood story to explain it. As a teenager, he was hauling hay in Arizona when the trailer broke and 200 bales of hay fell off. In 110 degree heat, he had to reload the hay onto a different trailer with a campaign sign staring at him the entire time. He has disliked them ever since, and said he believes in a clean city. “I believe in a clean and tight city and that was part of my Sparkle campaign was to clean the city up, make it up a nice place, so the 200,000 people that came here would say this would be a good place to recreate or vacate or live and work,” he said. Bulloch excused candidates Sam Brower and Michelle Jorgenson from the debate. Ben Batti read a prepared statement from Jorgenson.

Pageant Thursday evening. On Friday, there will be registration with Grand Entry at 7 p.m., and an annual Softball Tournament. On Saturday, the event begins with a morning Parade on Main Street and Grand Entry at 1, and 7 p.m. Sunday is set aside for a ‘5K Fun Run, complimentary breakfast and Grand Entry. Fireworks will be an added feature to the weekend POW-WOW. According to Charles, all visitors can partic- ipate in the Inter-Tribal arena dances or enter a traditional ‘hand game’ contest. Most will look for their favorite dance competitions: from the Men’s Warrior Dance, (traditional) and Men’s Northern Traditional Style, to the Men’s Chicken Dance, (age 18 plus) or the Women’s Jingle Combined (ages 13 to 25) among others. “We focus on strengthening our community by ‘healing the past’ and building towards the future,” said Charles, “and this event is held to mark the reinstatement of the Paiute Tribe with many hours given to the preparation of costumes, music and the traditional dances.” Aside from Drum performance and the opportunity to pass down music traditions, members will also be ‘gathering’ to honor the elders who carry forward their language, and the story of the hard-fought effort to attain federal recognition and reinstatement by the U.S. Government. “Some people do not know the deeper story behind this Gathering,” said Charles of history. “This year will mark the 1980 Congressional Bill that brought about an end to a difficult 26-year period that began in 1954.” It was in that year that U.S. policy halted the Paiute Bands from federal recognition and excluded the Cedar Band from receiving federal assistance. “For a time, there was no (legal) recognition for not being Indian and not being white, and the results of that termination had devastating effects,” said Charles. “It took our leaders (elders) 26 years to work through what that meant and to regain reinstatement by the government.” Today, the Paiute Tribe is organized under the provisions of the “1980 Restoration Act”; the Indian Reorganization Act of 1934, and under the Tribal Constitution. According to Charles, it is hoped that the 3-day-weekend will be a time for rekindling rela- tionships and building on the progress made in the community. “We now have housing, health care and educational options,” said Charles, “So we can see where we have been, and what the future can hold for us.” 10 Wednesday, June 6, 2018 News Iron County Today Parowan Pharmacy, IHC R ape, sexual assault team up for prescription support group to meet CEDAR CITY — The Canyon The group will meet on Tuesdays drop box program Creek Women’s Crisis Center is for six weeks from 6 to 7:30 p.m. currently accepting registration for a at the center, 95 N.

She points out that many food donation sites offer canned or pre-packaged goods, “but with this garden, we there will be fresh items to choose from.” According to Rose, more than $200 in garden project ‘seed money’ was provided through a grant submitted by three young people with the Youth Volunteer Corp (YVC). “We discovered that 25 plus garden boxes were built previously, offered to local residents who wanted to start a box-garden in their backyard,” said Rose. While the garden space is full of weeds with empty boxes of dirt and mulch, they represent the beginning of a community project. “Today, we will start to clear ground, planting beans, with some grape vines along the fence line.” The Youth Volunteer Corp represents teens, ages 11 to 18 who volunteer in service at assisted living facilities, at food collection sites, in after-school reading projects, and for community events – Utah Summer Games, Campfire in the Canyon concerts, at local animal shelter. This summer, YVC will be selling bottles of water in a fundraiser at the Frontier Homestead Museum “Folk Life Festival” set for June 22-23.
