Page 8 Golden Valley News July 7, 2011 sometimes I do animals. Landscapes aren't as fun, for me anyway." Many artists like to share their passion, techniques and ability with others, and Nistler is no dif- ferent. She has been contacted by Eastern Wyoming College Outreach to teach a class, and she is hoping to be able to do that this fall. She continues to produce her own work at an astounding rate, however, and continues to be rec- ognized in the world art commu- nity for her excellence. "My lates t b!g thing this month is I have a. painting in the International Artist. Magazine. They have a full-page write-up about me. It is the third time I've been in the magazine, and I placed second last year. Last year I placed second in the Colored Pencil Society of America," she said. Her advice to budding artists is that you must put in the work to end up with worthwhile projects. "They say 'miles behind the pencil,'" she said. Nistler is grateful for many things - being back in Wyoming, the joy of a loving family and a new grandchild, and, of course, she sure enjoys being an artist. "It's really fun and gratifying. Sometimes it's just unreal. I'm winning big awards and that's just amazing to me," she mused, admitting that she was surprised and honored to be named Weston County's Most Talented person. Some of Nistler's work can be viewed at www.eileennistler.com, the Artforms Gallery in Hill City and the Spearfish Arts Center Gallery in Spearfish.

Between rain .showers on Sunday, the Catholic churches in the area held their Tri-Parish Picnic at the Sentinel Butte Pavilion. A fair- ly large crowd attended the potluck meal. The parishes provided the hot dogs, hamburgers, buns, beans and beverages. The parishioners pro- vided an assortment of delicious sal- ads, desserts and relishes that were enjoyed by everyone. Charlie Hardy claimed it was his turn to cook, so he took his wife Vicki out to enjoy the finest meal being served anywhere in the area that day. The weather was perfect during the picnic. The streets of Golva were lined with motorbikes on Saturday when the 8th Annual Ride For The Range Benefit for Home On The Range, and in Memory of Bubby, a rider of the local bike group who was killed in a car crash, was held. Alter a wet spring when many of the farmers in the area were forced to leave large areas or entire fields unplanted because they were too wet or flooded, they are beginning to cut hay. The fields and road ditches are lined with swaths of grass and hay waiting to be baled. But just like the crop area, there are spots that are being skipped over for fear. of the haying equipment becoming stuck in the boggy areas and the hay too wet to be used. Bobbi Hildebrant and Ardelle (Jesok) Forrester visited Christine Finneman on Wednesday. Ardelle had been to the Pete and Irma Jesok farm home by Alpha, where she grew up.

TRNP to accept applications for elk reduction MEDORA - Theodore Roosevelt National Park is preparing to accept applications for volunteers to assist with the second year of its elk reduction program. "Last year's success indicates that we can expect a continued strong interest in volunteering for this program," said Superintendent Valerie Naylor. "Participants will be pleased to see that by starting reduction activgties two weeks earli- er this £eg,,we will avoid the more extreme- :,weather conditions in January, We will continue to use an automated and streamlined applica- tion process to ensure the selection of volunteers is fair." The application itself will be posted on July 9, 2011, but prospec- tive volunteers are encouraged to read through Frequently Asked Questions, What to Expect If You Are Selected, and Comments From Last Year's Volunteers that are now posted on the park's web site at www.nps.gov/thro. Potential volunteers may apply either as an individual or as part of a group of up to four people. Applications will be accepted only through the on-line process. As each application is received, it will automatically be assigned a unique identification number. Soon after close of the application period, successful applicants will be determined by a computer-generated random selection process. Twenty volun- teers will be selected for each week of the 10-week reduction period, which will run from Oct. 17 to Dec. 23, 2011. Successful applicants can expect to be contacted by the park within three weeks after the close of the application period. Because of the large number of applicants (over 5,200 last year), unsuccessful appli- cants will not be notified. As many as 200 people will be able to partic- ipate as elk reduction volunteers during the upcoming effort. "This is a volunteer work oppor- tunity, not an elk hunt," Naylor con- tinued. "It's important that the potential volunteers understand the conditions under which they would be working before the3? apply." Applications will be accepted from July 9 through July 23, 2011. Questions regarding this olunteer opportunity should be directed to Theodore Roosevelt National Park Elk Reduction Program Coordinator Wade Johes or Chief of Resource Management Bill Whitworth at (701) 623-4466.
