Come Over To The Dark Side
Often, prospective homebuyers who enter the real estate office here in the heart of the Village do so out of a sense of awe for the surrounding natural beauty and a curiosity about our unique community nestled at the base of the red cliffs. Quite simply, they have a lot of questions, and they want to know more. They’re always impressed by our commitment to moderate land usage, moderate growth, and our deep respect for local flora and fauna. Increasingly, we’ve found that Kayenta’s leadership in protecting the night skies above is differentiating us from other options that homebuyers may be considering.
During October, the Ivins Night Sky Initiative made a compelling presentation for Kayenta residents at the Center for the Arts. Marc Dershowitz used the perfect balance of scientific facts, personal experience, and humor to inform and educate attendees about the importance of protecting the night skies and not “being afraid of the dark.”
For example, disruption of humans’ natural circadian rhythms due to light pollution has been linked in some studies to sleep disorders; cardiovascular disease; cancer progression; and more. Similar negative impacts have been noted with respect to plant and animal life (e.g., altered behaviors; reproduction; endangerment and/or extinction).
From an economic point of view, communities which are blessed with dark skies at night, such as Kayenta, are incorporating dark sky ordinances into their home designs, leading to enhanced community attractiveness. Sedona, for example, has adopted the tag line “private sunbathing during the day…incredible red rock views and dark sky telescope observations at night.”
The biggest objection to dark sky initiatives can be a perceived sacrifice of safety and security for homeowners and pedestrians. However, it is important to note that the goal of night sky initiatives is not to eliminate nighttime light but to use it more intelligently. In fact, Kayenta has been held up as a role model worth emulating by the rest of Ivins and beyond. A quick review of our community lighting guidelines makes it clear as to why.
Learn more about this topic by visiting www.ivinsnightsky.org. In short, not only will protecting our night sky enable us to enjoy the majesty of countless stars, constellations, and planets, it likely will increasingly have a positive impact on human, plant and animal health and positively influence our home values. So, come over to the dark side, and enjoy the benefits!

KAYENTA DEVELOPMENT UPDATE
Paiute Drive Road Closure
We had been hopeful that lower Paiute Drive in Taviawk would have been reopened by the end of October or early November but it looks like the road will continue to be closed for a while. Why the delay? Utilities are being installed and a permanent road will replace the temporary chip-sealed road that was built a few years ago. The construction is taking longer than anticipated, due to the difficulty of the depth of the trenching and discovery of rock. Sewer lines have been installed, next storm drains, culinary water and irrigation water, power then natural gas. All of these utilities require fill and compaction between each layer. Unfortunately, the new estimates on completion are after the holidays.

October 8th’s Coyote Tales
The Lorraine Boccardo Theater in the Center for the Arts at Kayenta was the setting for nine storytellers to take the stage for the eighth sold out performance of Coyote Tales. The storytellers captivated the audience with lively, funny, and touching narratives based on the theme, “You Gotta Be Kidding Me.” We were treated to a diverse and varied group of tellers who fearlessly shared some of their lives’ most meaningful and interesting events. Visiting storyteller and author, Pam Houston, shared a story of how she finally found “home” on her 120-acre homestead high in the Colorado Rockies. And Bill Wright, another invited teller, added the perfect amount of cowboy-charm and grit with his tale of his difficult and often dangerous work on the range. But I must confess for me, the best part of the evening is always our local storytellers who bravely get on stage to share their stories. It is our belief that through the sharing of these well-crafted stories, we as a community become more connected and involved. We thank you for listening!
If you missed October’s show, our next event is scheduled for, February 7, 2020. The theme for the evening is: “Flawed”. If you would like to get on stage or to purchase tickets, please visit the Coyote Tales webpage. While there, you can also find storytelling tips and tricks and listen to audio archives from past Coyote Tales events.
Much gratitude goes to Doug Caputo (who is also our ever charming “Master of Sharemonies”) and Susan Jager of Desert Dweller of Equity Realty who provided the bar, Ned Cordery and Trent Roberts who records our show, Alan Holben who captures each teller’s personality in his lovely photographs, and Stillhouse Road who provided the excellent music. Special thanks also to Utah Humanities who provides funding for these events, The Center for the Arts at Kayenta and the amazing volunteers and community members who make these evenings possible. A million thanks – Victoria

INKAS – Ivins No Kill Animal Supporters
Advocate: Lois Hewitt
“Once you have had a wonderful dog, a life without one is a life diminished.” -Dean Koontz
“Cats are connoisseurs of comfort.” -James Herriot
The quotes above summarize the wonderful conversations we had with animal lovers from all over during INKAS October fundraisers (our table at the Kayenta Art Festival and our annual yard sale).
We so enjoyed hearing the stories of love for those animals that have been rescued and are living happy and healthy lives in their forever homes. Many of the animals in these stories came from the Ivins Animal Shelter, PAWS and RSQ DOGS. Now because of the success of our fundraisers INKAS continues to be a strong and viable resource to the Ivins Animal Shelter, PAWS, RSQ DOGS and other local non-profit animal rescue organizations.
Many, many thanks to “rescue parents” and to our active supporters. Together we can make great strides in ending pet homelessness.
INKAS next event is on November 2nd when we will be hosting our low-cost microchipping clinic at the Ivins Animal Shelter from 10 – 2. Microchipping is the most effective means of having your cat or dog returned to you should it become lost. For more information call Lois Hewitt at 435-414-4802.
