Kayenta Connection February 2019
Punxsutawney Phil will let us know on February 2nd if spring is just around the corner. The Kayenta Connection was considering holding off on sending out the newsletter until we knew if we could celebrate the arrival of an early spring. With that breaking news not available as of this mailing the Connection will instead celebrate February in Kayenta and all the local events that make this community so special.

Kayenta’s 2019 St. George Area Parade of Homes, “Kayenta Concept 2”
Kayenta has long embraced the concept of building a community that fits beautifully into the natural desert landscape. This year’s parade home is the culmination of that sustained legacy. The Kayenta Concept Home 2 is the second home of its kind to be built showcasing the best in casual desert living, with style and substance. Featuring a spacious open-concept floor plan surrounded by floor to ceiling glass, this home offers an abundance of natural light and features expansive views of Kayenta’s red rock cliffs and spectacular desert surroundings. Modern design elements infused with earth centered materials of stone, metal and wood provides a well-grounded living environment while elements of water, light and sky awaken the spirit.
Built by J2 Construction, this beautiful 3,445 sq. ft. home was designed by Gulch Design Group, with interior design by Gulch Design Group, Matt Marten and Teresa Jacobsen.

A Note From Our Director
Do you know how much fun it is to bring world-class talent and entertainment to the CFAK for all of YOU!? I love the looks on your faces when you come out of an event totally delighted, moved or amazed! It is so rewarding and thrilling to hear your comments. Those comments go something like this, “Jan, how do you get these entertainers (actors, events) to come here? We have moved here from (fill in the blank) and this show (lecture, play, concert) was better than what we were paying $60-$90 for in San Francisco (New York, Chicago, Los Angeles) we are seriously impressed. Tonight’s show hit a new high for us!”
Let me answer the “how” by saying first that I have been in the world of entertainment all of my life so I have a lot of friends, contacts and now even community members that are helping steer me to fantastic talent across the country! This really is YOUR Center for the Arts! Second, I tell people all about the beauty of this area and the community of patrons, “the people in Kayenta are as beautiful and diverse as the landscape! You really need to see this area and experience the support and enthusiasm for great art that the Kayenta community exudes!” So now everyone that I have been able to negotiate with and bring here ALL want to return! They LOVE coming here and performing here. We will continue to bring new talent and ask you to continue helping us spread the word about our intimate theater gem!
We need your support as season ticket holders and to help us fill the seats for the plays that we offer. They are different, diverse, grown-up productions––with your help (tell your friends) we can continue bringing an array of unique, different, classic as well as modern plays––to our stage! Look for these coming this spring; Sylvia by A.R. Gurney, My Hollywood with Beverly Washburn and Hank Williams: Lost Highway.
Please note that Broadway performer and Phantom star, John D. Smitherman, is returning for 3 Encore performances Valentine’s Day weekend. He will perform songs that connect to the love in all of us. He’ll be joined by some of the most dazzling voices in Southern Utah: Greg Knell, Mimi Knell, McKenzie Morgan, Joyce Clements, and Sammy Myrick. Talented pianist Heidi Webb will accompany. You may have heard these singers (and pianist) in leading roles at Tuacahn, SGMT, and Hurricane Valley Theater… They are the professional performers who happen to live amongst us. Songs from musicals and movies including “Phantom of the Opera,” “Gone With the Wind,” “South Pacific,” “Oklahoma,” “My Fair Lady,” “Casablanca,” and more. Don’t miss out on an unforgettable evening of music to warm the heart and stir the soul.
We are all so grateful for the support of this community and if you have not made it over to the Center, then February truly is the month to sample these spectacular cultural events in our very own neighborhood. We’re confident you’ll leave with an ear-to-ear smile on your face, after being part of a collective human experience that makes us all richer, more connected and satisfied. Cheers! and we will see you at the theatre!

Movie Nights at Kayenta
February 4, 7 PM
FREE!
Charlie Wilson’s War: A drama based on a Texas congressman Charlie Wilson’s covert dealings in Afghanistan, where his efforts to assist rebels in their war with the Soviets have some unforeseen and long-reaching effects.
Kayenta Arts Foundation’s (KAF’s) Movie Nights at Kayenta will be showing films from the private collection of Richard Kinsman, a resident of Kayenta. Richard loved movies and had a private collection of over 2,500 films. He had hoped to hold regular movie nights as a fundraising activity for KAF as well as a time of community. However, when he learned he had a terminal illness, Richard granted his collection to the Foundation. Sadly, he did not survive to see the Center for the Arts at Kayenta completed and thus, his movie nights begin. Richard would be so thankful to see that his vision has come to life!
The movie is free and open to the public with the fun starting at 7 p.m. There will be bottled water, soda, popcorn, candy, and other concessions available for sale. Bring some cash* to make a donation to help pay for licensing and labor costs. Everyone is welcome!
*We accept cash only for concessions and donations for this event.

Tom Russell: Cowboy Poet, Singer, Artist

“The greatest living folk-country songwriter is a man named Tom Russell.” —John Swenson, “Rolling Stone”

This February, the phenomenally talented Tom Russell will take his audiences back to the authentic American West, singing many of his hit folk and cowboy songs, and telling stories of Americana.

After performing to sold-out crowds at the Center for the Arts at Kayenta (CFAK) last Fall, John Smitherman returns for Valentine’s Day to perform songs that connect to the love in all of us.

March 1, 7:30 PM
Pre-show cocktail party
at 6:30 PM.
Tickets: $20 (includes pre-show party)
Avoid the lines and pre-purchase beverage tickets at: http://coyotetalesstories.com/ Click the BUY TICKETS link.
March 1st is the date and The Center for the Arts at Kayenta is the setting for the next Coyote Tales Storytelling Event. Our theme for the evening is “FRENEMY”. Prepare a 5 minute story about a relationship that confounds you. Are you “friends” with someone you fundamentally dislike? Perhaps you have a friend who can always be counted on…to bring you down. Do you have a person in your life that always roots for you to do well, but just not better than them? Maybe it’s an object that you have a love-hate relationship with? Oh, do tell. There’s no need to get on stage – just be prepared to be mesmerized by our storyteller’s undeniable authenticity and heart.
Coyote Tales is pleased to welcome celebrated author, journalist, humorist and educator, Richard Menzies to our stage. He is set to deliver a clever and engaging story of his own personal frenemy. Matt Pacenza, writer, teacher, advocate and former director of HEAL Utah, will also be gracing our stage. Matt loves to make audiences laugh, both while giving talks about climate change and air pollution (nothing funnier!) and at occasional comedy open-mics. He’s got a story you don’t want to miss.
Get tickets HERE
As always, the evening will begin with a lively cocktail party (included in the ticket price) where attendees can socialize while noshing on deliciously upscale bites. Theater goers may also partake of the cash bar generously provided by Kayenta Homes and Properties. Proceeds from bar sales directly benefit the CFAK.
MAKE A CHILD’S DAY STORY-WORTHY
Coyote Tales will also host a “benefit concession stand” with gourmet sweets prepared and donated by Petite Feast. All proceeds from the sale will be used for a special art experience taught by local artist, Rod Petersen, to Red Mountain Elementary School students. Please help us further the CFAK’s mission to bring art to the community by purchasing a treat and make a Red Mountain Elementary student’s day story-worthy.
Cash only please for our concession stand.
If you’d like to get on stage, please contact Victoria through the Coyote Tales website: http://coyotetalesstories.com/

PICKLEBALL TRAIL ~ Dan Cornelius ~
Pickleball Trail Newsletter #5
The Pink Loop of the Pickleball Trail has been running along the ridge line of the “Pink Mountain”. Some of the residents living at the western base of this mountain have found the view and noise coming from the trail users on the ridge to be objectionable. To accommodate these residents the trail in the northwest area has been rerouted such that the trail users and the residents are no longer in view of each other.
Pickleball Trail Newsletter #4
1 Pink Loop • The Pink Loop (flagged with pink flags) is finished. The trailhead (TH) is just across the Fire Road from the Blue Loop TH. There are five switchbacks climbing to the summit of the hill for a nice Kayenta viewpoint. From here you have two options: bear left and begin descending or bear right and continue going south along a ridge line to another nice viewpoint. At this viewpoint the trail loops back north to join the “left branch”. The Pink Loop now continues down and southeast on a fast and easy section of trail until it joins the Blue Loop which will take you back to the PBT TH. Although there is a bit of a climb going up to the summit the Pink Loop is probably the easiest loop in the Pickleball Trail network. Most of the trail has become firm rather quickly.
2 Orange Loop • The Orange Loop has been growing for many months. It begins at the southern-most point of the Purple Loop which is close to Sage Way dirt road. There are identifying orange flags along the way. The trail drops down and crosses Kayenta Wash with help from a several concrete blocks (which tend to suffer a little displacement and damage from big rains). Proceed east a bit to a two way junction. From here you can go north (left) or south (right) to traverse the loop either clockwise or counterclockwise. The southern-most point of this loop is at the South PBT TH on Highway 91 (across from the road to the Anasazi Trail TH.)
After crossing the dirt service road at this point the trail continues north passing two left/right options. The “right” option at each junction puts you on the largest Orange Loop. Eventually you will reach a third junction where the right fork will lead to the “Eye of the Needle” (a tight passage between two large boulders) while the left fork bypasses the “Eye”. Proceeding north these two options join and pass through a rock-lined path through a foothill. Eventually the trail crosses the service road again going west, then south through a smaller wash and then back to the original two way junction just east of the Kayenta Wash crossing. The newer sections of the trail will be soft for awhile.
3 New Construction • Construction will continue on an Orange Loop option in the “bench cut”, rocky foothill section in the east Orange area.
4 Rides after rains • Please be patient in allowing the trail to dry out and become relatively firm after significant rainfall before you use the trail. Bikers and walkers jumping on the trail too soon will make divots and ruts that degrade the fun of the trail. I am aware the cattle are the worst offenders, but they have priority over the rest of us.
As of January 9 the Pink Loop was too wet to ride or walk.
