Salmon Fishing Season Is Coming Soon!!

Leave a comment

“
Ironhead Guide Service has boats available for salmon fishing on the Klamath River so take a look at the calendar dates and let them know when you would like to book, from September 1, through . October, 7 are also open for salmon fishing. But other’s will be snatching up some of those dates, so give Mario a call as soon as you can. .

Spend the day fishing with Mario and you will see why his boat fills up so fast. You won’t get yelled at for missing a cast, or a bite. Mario doesn’t guide for the money, he does it because it’s his passion and catching a fish is just a bonus. Mario says, He “will work my butt off for you and do everything I can to ensure you have a great trip. Take a look at the reviews to see what my customers have to say about my business.
If for some reason you can’t fish with me personally, my brother Bobby is my first string guide and has been fishing for me for 3 years and has been right next to me fishing so he has been very well trained. I also have handpicked experienced local guides on most of the rivers I fish to assist me with the recent increase in demand for my service because we are determined Irongate Guide Service will not disappoint you.

Happy Camp Neighborhood Watch Meets 2nd Monday each month

by Judy E Bushy
Well, the last meeting of Neighborhood Watch (2nd Monday each month) went well We discussed the purchase of more efficient cameras, more patrol, fund raiser to afford the best system, and partnering with other non profits to fight crime, graffiti included.

Dan Effman mentioned that, “The strange part was we did not have a good turnout. The majority of the people that are complaining or suggest ways to fight crime didn’t show. We would appreciate it if you attended to share!”

Robin who serves as secretary/treasurer also said, “We encourage people to come out and get involved. As a community we need to work together to keep our community safe from crime.”

Really appreciated that Doreen explained more about the Neighborhood Watch, “Until you get involved and realize the problems aren’t as simple as they should be there will be misconceptions. The NW volunteers are just that; volunteers! There is no pay, no prestige, and many times it is a thankless duty. Until people put their differences aside and act in cohesion there will be little gains made in the area of crime prevention. Especially since we cope without any local 24/7 law enforcement.

Community Help Needed
Hope to see you all at the next meeting (July 13th postponed and will ZOOM August 10th)and a big thank you to those that attended. I enjoyed seeing Dan Effman, Robin Eggers, Rita Manley-King and Yukon Sakota! Some had other duties that kept them away but usually come. Last meeting before Covid-19 issues came up there were 17 and we had only 5 attend for June.

Keeping Safe and prayers….

Leave a comment

There’s news at Kingfisher Marketas. Last week we shared requirementS for patrons to don gloves and mask for shopping. To those who didn’t have a kind friend to sew them a mask, Karuk Tribe donated them for the community! bE SURE to continue to shop locally and support our local businesses!

This week the Kingfisher Market said,”We are really looking forward to the end of this Pandemic… until we have the all clear, we will continue to try to make the store a safe place to shop. To that end, we have installed plexiglass shields at each of the registers. We’ve gotten a lot of positive feedback from our customers.”

This coronavirus situation is unprecedented in most of our memory. We certainly hope that it will be resolved as soon as possible, and polls show good and bad things that have resulted. Families are home more than ever! parents ARE helping their children in homeschooling. Teachers, are of course helping, but from safe distancing guidelines.
The saddest things I’ve seen lately is the new complications in children announced in some countries that send them to Intensive Care at the hospital. Also, suicides are up which is an indication of how much kindness and help we need to be aware of the needs of our loved ones and neighbors.

President Trump declared May 7th the Annual National Day of Prayer amid the coronavirus pandemic.

“We are a Country that, throughout our history, has looked to God for protection and strength in times like these….,” Trump tweeted. “No matter where you may be, I encourage you to turn towards prayer in an act of faith. Together, we will easily PREVAIL!”

Happy Camp has had many situations for prayer in the past days of this crisis. Solutions don’t always seem to come easily, but great effort and strength among all those of the community. There are friends and neighbors with cancer and other serious illnesses that we pray for regularly; we know that this is a difficult time for both the patient and the patient’s family and friends. This makes them more susceptible to the coronavirus as well, and they need out caution out of concern for our neighbors health and wellbeing!

We’ve been praying for a missing person from Happy Camp who was on his way home from Medford. Thankfully, Ron has been found in Medford and he is safe. Thank you to those who have prayed! Don’t stop now!

Thank you, and as we hope that businesses and our practices will open somewhat in the coming days, don’t forget that washing hands and precautions will always help one to stay more healthy and curtail the spread of many diseases. Be safe and healthy!

I hear the rolling thunder….and fires result!

Happy Camp -Oak Knoll Ranger Station

by Judy E. Bushy
The debate at the Happy Camp post office was whether we’d get a gentle rain or some real fireworks! Duane Armbruster thought fireworks and that it was!

Reminds me of a favorite Hymn, I see the stars, I hear the rolling thunder. Thy power throughout the universe displayed! Then sings my soul, my Saviour God to thee, How Great Thou Art! How Great Thou Art!

Friday the Klamath National Forest Supervisors’ office said three fires had been started on the Klamath. Two were contained and mopping up and one had yet to be contained.

Cecil Fire
On the Salmon/Scott Ranger District there was a 0.2 acre fire south of Cecilville. It was contained and began mop up.

Pipeline Fire
On the Happy Camp Oak Knoll District there was a 0.3 Acre fire north of Doggett Creek. It was quickly contained and mopped up.

Barkhouse Fire
The Barkhouse fire, east of McKinney Creek Road, was contained at 6.5 acres. Crews, engines, and aviation resources were used throughout the day to reach containment. Crews remain on scene to mop up.

The Klamath National Forest is working in close coordination with partner agencies to coordinate firefighting resources in support of aggressive initial attack. The Forest is prioritizing the use of local suppression resources with the predominant strategy being rapid containment of wildfires.

Farmer’s Market began: Seiad Valley Update

2 comments

Update by Judy E. Bushy June 12, 2020 a version reprinted from Siskiyou News Last Saturday, there was a table with delightful plants, flowers, lavender sachet, and magnets!! Seems like rain has really upset the schedule!!

Jaime Allen with Michael and Yarrow had Framers Garden on Saturday in Seiad Valley.


While there wasn’t a full Farmer’s Market entourage out with things, it was pleasant to have a drive to Seiad Valley and find Jaime Allen and his helpers! They had a table with beautiful flowers, lavender, and plants. Yarrow has beautiful local pictures on glass magnets also. It was chilly, but we appreciated their being out, and the rain held off, but was sprinkling after I made my purchases. The beautiful Alchemy Roses reminded me of my bridal bouquet and since Dan and I celebrated 54th wedding anniversary last Wednesday, made a pretty bouquet for lunch (from Partner’s Deli!!)

Enjoy your local

Remembering Those Who Served!

Youthful Volunteers (Emma Bousfield, Clarabeth and Gregory Olson )Decorating Happy Camp Cemetery

by Judy E. bushy (Siskiyou News May 27, 2020 reprinted)
Did you have a good “at home” Memorial Day remembrance of those who have given their lives on the battlefield for Liberty? Being home where all was quiet. One could reminisce about the American Legion, Veterans of Foreign Wars, their auxiliary organizations and community members used to gather for simple services in past years.

Presidential Comments
Ahead of the holiday, our president said, “We will never take for granted the blood shed by these gallant men and women, as we are forever indebted to them and their families…. As we commemorate these seminal events, we also remember the tremendous cost at which these victories came. More than 400,000 souls of the Greatest Generation perished during this titanic struggle to liberate the world from tyranny.”

He concluded by highlighting that Congress, in 1950, called “on the people of the United States to observe each Memorial Day as a day of prayer for permanent peace” and also designated “a period on that day when the people of the United States might unite in prayer.”

Volunteers
There were many volunteers working to prepare the Happy Camp Cemetery and the Fort Goff Cemetery for the Memorial Day weekend. The Fort Goff was missing fencing and has had a fund raising drive to replace it. They not only reached their goal but surpassed it! Good work!

The Happy Camp Cemetery was decorated with flowers and the flags for Veterans on a work day in advance as well. Kathy Toland, to whom we are most grateful for arranging the volunteers work at the cemetery Saturday morning, at 10:00 am. Anyone wanting to help is more than welcome; Robin, especially the kids… supervised of course.Before everyone else arrives at 10 Kathy is there to set up the flags, red, white & blue flowers and regular flowers at proper distancing locations and have them all ready to go. Then Friday, May 28th they will pick up the flags. Thanks to all volunteers!!
