Make-A-Wish



Shelbie Powell has Schwartzman-Diamond syndrome, a rare disease that affects the pancreas, hindering overall growth. Earlier this week, the Make-A-Wish foundation announced they will grant Powell's wish: record and album so she can give hope to other sick children.

Scoring a touchdown, Blackfoot High style.

This is Al Jones. He rides dirt bikes at a nearby track called Noise Park. A few years ago, he was involved in a motorcycle crash. Although Jones works-out extensively at his car-repair shop, he will never race bikes again.

I have more pictures, but my employer will only allow me to post photographs published in the newspaper. If you want to see these images, email me.
