The Pet Corner Aggie Smith, Ivins Animal Shelter
Linda Elwell, Friends of Ivins Animal Shelter
Greetings from the Ivins Animal Shelter With the mercury rising, everyone will be feeling the heat, including your pets. So, if you have a
pet at home this is the time to pay special attention to its needs. Stay alert and try to gauge if your
pet is trying to express some kind of discomfort or fatigue through its physical gestures. All pets
should be given lots of water in the summer months. If you spot an animal suffering from heat
exhaustion or dehydration, move it to a shaded spot or in air conditioning. You can apply wet
cool towels, or place in a tepid tub of water. After the animal has cooled down then offer a small
amount of water or ice cubes. If the animal does not improve seek veterinarian care.
Telltale signs of heat exhaustion are:
1. Heavy panting 4. Unsteadiness 7. Deep red or purple tongue
2. Glazed eyes 5. Staggering gait
3. Rapid Pulse 6. Vomiting
Hot surfaces like roadways can also cause burns dog and cat’s paw pads. Some dogs with light or
white coats may get sunburned so always provide a shaded place. The biggest risk to animals is
the inside of a car in the summer, especially in the southwest. The inside of a car is like a green-
house and it traps the heat. The graph below will show how hot your car is on the inside, parked
in a shaded spot with four cracked windows.
I would like to thank Shadon Gates who built a shed for the animal shelter as his Eagle Scout
project. This was greatly appreciated and a needed addition to our shelter.
Greetings from Friends of Ivins Animal Shelter Spring is here and summer is approaching quickly. Our shelter has many wonderful pets who
need a ―forever home‖! Our ―Wish for the month of June‖ is two- fold. Please consider adopting
one of our wonderful animals and if you cannot adopt please consider becoming a foster parent.
This time of year brings many kittens and puppies to the shelter and having a foster home list
would be of tremendous help to Aggie. The second part of our wish is scoopable litter. Of course
we will accept anything you wish to donate to help the animals. Donations of wet/dry Purina dog
food, Friskies cat food, Purina kitten chow and Purina puppy chow are always appreciated. We
try very hard not to switch brands of food in order to maintain a regular diet for the cats and dogs
in our care.
Friends of Ivins Animal Shelter has been selected as one of two charities in our area to benefit
from the 2011 Round Nevada Classic Car Tour. The event will be held in the Albertson’s parking
lot on Sunset Blvd. from 4:00 p.m. to 8:00 p.m. on Wednesday June 8 th. Admission is free and it
promises to be a fun filled event for all. FIAS will be accepting financial donations as well as
supply donations. Our Committee Chair, Kathy Young, is working hard to have a variety of inter-
esting items for sale to benefit the animals. All donations and funds raised will directly benefit
the animals in the Ivins Animal Shelter & Adoption Center. For more information please call
FIAS at 673-1718. We look forward to seeing you there!

Marching Forward
Chris Hart, Mayor
On May 3rd Governor Herbert signed into law the bill authoriz-
ing the Washington County Veterans Nursing Home to be built
in Ivins City. Our State Legislators who sponsored the bill and
fought to keep the funding in place attended the event along
with Terry Schow and Dennis McFall from the State Veterans
Affairs Office. Most evident however were the many local
veterans who came to witness the signing that marked the cul-
mination of their three year effort to make this care
center a reality.
Two days later a public hearing was held in our
City Council meeting to discuss authorizing the
transfer of ten acres of City property to the State
for the construction of the facility. Not one word was raised in
protest and the Council voted unanimously to proceed. A de-
velopment agreement was also approved that evening clearing
the way for the project to begin.
A ceremonial groundbreaking is tentatively planned for July
with actual construction to begin in October. Hundreds of con-
struction workers will be needed to complete the facility within
the aggressive thirteen month schedule that has been proposed.
A design/build general contractor will be decided upon within
the next few weeks with the intent of having both the design
and construction work move forward simultaneously.
In conjunction with all of the other preparations being made, a
massive multi-County fund raising effort is being launched by
the regional Veterans organizations to raise money for needed
upgrades to the furnishings within the facility and for a Veter-
ans Memorial Monument to be erected in front of the building.
The veterans will be working very hard for the next month and
a half because all the money raised by July 15th for the interior
upgrades will be matched by the Federal Veterans Administra-
tion on a 35% local to 65% federal funding ratio. So every dol-
lar donated by then becomes nearly three dollars in actual im-
provements.
Individuals, businesses and other entities
supported by the facility are encouraged to
become room sponsors by donating
$4,000.00 to the cause. That contribution
provides a more comfortable hospital bed,
a flat screen TV and upgraded furniture for the room. The
name of the person, business or other entity making a room
donation will appear on a plaque beside the door of the room
they sponsored. Bill Toole of the Marine Corps League and I
were privileged to receive the first such donation from Robert
Hansberry who is a veteran and was a patient at Dixie Regional
Medical Center at the time. He and his wife said they were
happy to get the ball rolling on this effort. Smaller donations
are also welcomed and many will be needed to reach the goal.
All are tax deductible.
OLLIE
Pets of the Month I am such a cute girl. Very affectionate and
sweet describes my personality. I am about 5
months old, just the right age to be adopted and
become a member of your family. I am a
mixed breed of Chihuahua and Jack Russell
Terrier. Please call Aggie at 628-1049 or
Friends of Ivins Animal Shelter at 673-1718 to
make an appointment to meet me and all of
my friends.
My name is Ollie. My family moved and
abandoned at my home. I was rescued by a
kind person and brought to the Ivins Animal
Shelter & Adoption Center so I could find my
forever home. I am a beautiful sweet Flame-
point and I am de-clawed. My housemate and
I came to the shelter together. We are both
cream with blue eyes, so handsome. Please call Aggie at 669-
7043 or Friends of Ivins Animal Shelter at 673-1718 to make an
appointment to meet me and all of my buddies at the shelter.
Weeds, Fires and Trailers on the Street Sgt Tracy Marrott, Public Safety
What the heck could these things have in common? These are
all Code Enforcement issues that are becoming a problem this
year.
We are fortunate to get a lot of moisture this spring. It
has made for a bumper crop of weeds. Although not
the tumble weeds we’re used to, the cheat grass we’re
seeing gets highly flammable in late June or July. We have al-
ready seen our first brush fire. If the cheat grass is mowed while
green, it can reduce the probability of fire. Code Enforcement is
getting letters out to the areas we see as a concern, but it’s
likely that we might miss one in your neighborhood. Call us
and let us know if you see a problem and we’ll get to it. The
Code Enforcement telephone number is 435-674-5503.
As you were advised before, vehicles parked on the roadway
must have the right side of the vehicle parallel to the curb. I
think I said ―left side‖ in the May newsletter and some of you
have caught me on it. I must have had my boots on wrong that
day.
Utility trailers, camp trailers, trailers used for
your business, etc. cannot be stored on city
streets. This means they should not be parked
in front of your residence without being hooked to your vehicle
and even when hooked to your vehicle they may only be there
for loading and unloading. If you’re in this situation you may
receive a warning, but these violations can be towed immedi-
ately. Again, please call Kevin Rudd at 435-634-9753 or Ser-
geant Tracy Marrott at 435-674-5503 with any questions.

In addition to funding the interior upgrades donations may be
directed to the magnificent Veterans Memorial Monument that
will be erected in front of the facility. Created by Ed Hlavka
who sculpted the mustangs in our entry roundabout, the sixteen
foot bronze eagle in flight above a sandstone pillar will rise
twenty five feet over the main entrance to the building. Ed has
provided a model that will appear at various fund raising
events.
Donation checks for the room upgrades can be made out to
‖Utah Department of Veterans Affairs, Donation Account‖ and
mailed to Utah Department of Veterans Affairs, 550 Foothill
Drive, Suite 202, Salt Lake City, Utah 84113 or placed in the
donation box at Ivins City Hall.
Donation checks for the Veterans Memorial
Monument can be made out to ―Ivins Veterans
Home, Donation Account‖ with ―Monument‖
specified on the ―memo‖ line and mailed to
Mayor Chris Hart c/o Ivins City, 50 North Main
Street, Ivins, Utah 84738 or placed in the dona-
tion box at Ivins City Hall.
As icing on the cake it has been announced that
an Ivins Chapter of the American Legion is to be
established in conjunction with the Veterans
Nursing Home coming to our City. All Ivins
residents who are veterans and future residents of
the care center are qualified to become members.
No doubt a primary focus of this chapter will be
to provide support and relief to the residents of
the nursing home. Anyone interested in signing
up as a charter member or obtaining additional
information may contact Bill Stay, the Area Four
Commander of the American Legion or Arnie & Ellen Nathan,
District Seven Commander and District Seven Auxiliary Presi-
dent respectively, both of whom are Ivins residents.
**Dumpsters are located next to the Public Works Yard
behind the City Cemetery. They are available on a first
come first serve basis beginning at 8:00am and close that
same day once full.

Proposed American Legion Post
The Department of Veterans has chosen Ivins City for the loca-
tion of the Veterans home in Southern Utah. The City has
made possible a beautiful location for this home.
We of the American Legion feel it would be appropriate for
Ivins to have its own Legion Post. In order to establish a Post
we need to have 10 new members. These have to be brand new
members not transfers from an existing Post. The first ten mem-
bers will be the known as the Chartering Members. Mayor Hart
and the City have made available a home for the Legion to hold
meetings. THE FIRST MEETING WILL BE JUNE 8, 2011 AT
7:00 P.M. AT THE IVINS CITY COUNCIL CHAMBERS.
The Legion Post will be a valuable asset to the community in
promoting Americanism. They would be available for posting
the colors at all community events as well as being a service
organization to assist in the community.
All Veterans that have served in a time of war, this includes
National Guardsman and Reservist that went through Basic
Training during time of war are eligible for membership even if
they were never deployed.
Those who are interested in being part of
this organization please Call Commander
Bill Stay at (435) 656-1331 or Dist. 7
Commander Arni Nathan (435) 652-8333
for more information.

Squeaky Wheel Reminders Chris Hart, Mayor
Ivins Good Samaritan Fund The Ivins Good Samaritan Fund that was created to assist some
of our Historic Township residents with their Special Area As-
sessment payments for the street im-
provements now underway needs all
our help. We’re off to a slow start in
part because the line item for the fund
did not appear on the City utility state-
ments until recently and is quietly
placed at the bottom of the page caus-
ing it to be easily overlooked. If you
can help I’d encourage you to make special note and add a
small amount on that line to your utility payment each month.
Some very deserving neighbors and friends will be grateful for
your generosity.
Ivins Blue Sky Community Challenge We are entering the second month of our Rocky Mountain
Power ―Blue Sky Community Challenge‖. Our goal is to sign
up an additional seventy Blue Sky Program
participants by early October. This is a vol-
untary program supporting clean energy de-
velopment in part by providing grants to Blue
Sky Communities for projects like our cur-
rent solar installations. We are generating a
significant amount of power with the systems
funded by our first Blue Sky grant and plan
on applying for others in the future as one of only ten cities in
Utah that qualify.
Once again it’s easy and inexpensive to become a participant.
Simply decide how many blocks of power you want to buy at
$1.95 per 100 KW hour block per month and add it to your
power bill. Signing up for the program can be done directly
with Rocky Mountain Power either on line or through the mail
with your monthly payment. For help or additional information
you may contact Kai Reed at kaiallenreed@gmail.com. or at
674-5376. Thank you for your support of these efforts.
Ivins Parks & Recreation Benny Sorensen, Parks Director
Summer is here! School is out and people are outside playing in
the hot Southern Utah sun! This time of year people like to use
the pavilions in the parks because it is a shady spot. If you are
planning to use one of the pavilions for an activity, it is a very
good idea to plan ahead and come into the Parks & Recreation
office and reserve it. There is no charge, but it will secure the
use of the pavilion for your group (when there is no reservation
for a pavilion they can be used on a first come first served ba-
sis).
Summer is a time that people like to get out and walk with their
dogs. For your safety and the safety of your animals, Ivins City
Ordinance requires that your dogs (and cats) must be on a leash
and under the control of a person at all times when you are
within Ivins City boundaries, which includes City Parks. Under
the control of a person means that you must have one end of the
leash secured to the dog (or cat) and the other end of your pets
leash in your hand at all times. Ivins City provides an off leash
dog area located at 600 West and 850 North.
As you are out in the parks and on the trails please let us know
if you discover any problems and report them as soon as you
can so that we can get them taken care of quickly. If you wit-
ness or discover vandalism, please contact the Public Safety
Department as soon as you can.
If you spend time with kids in the summer, you will want to
keep them safe while providing fun outdoor experiences. Did
you know that over-exposure to the sun can pose serious health
effects, especially in children? You can take several simple
actions to protect children—and yourself.
Do not Burn. Five or more sunburns can double your chance of
getting skin cancer.
When the UV Index is “high,” “Very High,” or “Extreme”:
Limit outdoor activities between 10 am and 4 pm, when the
sun is most intense.
Seek shade. When possible, conduct activities in a shaded area.
Rotate players to allow breaks in the shade.
Generously apply sunscreen. Twenty minutes before going
outside, liberally apply a broad-spectrum sunscreen with a Sun
Protection Factor (SPF) of at least 15. Reapply every two hours
or after swimming or sweating.
Hats and sunglasses. Encourage kids to find a hat they like and
wear it. Wide brim hats offer the most sun protection. Teach
kids to wear sunglasses with 99 to 100 percent UV-A and UV-
B protection.
Encourage t-shirts or full-length clothing instead of tank
tops.

Dance Fitness/Strength Training Monday–Thursday 6:00 to 7:00 a.m.
Classes are held at the recreation building at UNITY Park or
when weather permits, Dance Fitness classes are held on the
tennis courts with instructor Julie Thompson.
Dance Fitness - Tuesday's & Thursday's
Dance Fitness eliminates the ―work‖ from
―working out‖ by combining music with
dynamic, yet simple exercise moves. You'll
have so much FUN you won't even realize
you just got a great cardio workout.
Strength Training - Monday's & Wednesday's - Monday's
class focuses on lower body & abs / Wednesday's class
focuses on upper body/abs.
Strength Training is a vital part
of a balanced exercise routine that
includes aerobic activity
and flexibility exercises. Regular
aerobic exercise, such as
Dance Fitness, running or using a stationary bike etc. makes
your muscles use oxygen more efficiently and strengthens
your heart and lungs. When you strength train with weights,
you're using your muscles to work against the extra pounds
(this concept is called resistance). This strengthens and in
creases the amount of muscle mass in your body by making
your muscles work harder than they're used to. Some of the
benefits you will see from strength training are an increase
endurance and strength for sports and fitness activities,
improves focus and concentration, reduces body fat and
increased muscle mass, helps burn more calories even when
not exercising, may reduce the risk of short-term injuries by
protecting tendons, bones and joints and helps prevent long-
term medical problems such as high cholesterol or
osteoporosis (weakening of the bones) when you get older.
Punch cards: $40.00 for 20 classes or Individual Class: $4
