Page 4 IVINS CITY NEWS VOLUME 15 ISSUE 6 ARE YOU READY FOR SUMMER? Rocky Mountain Power Is your business ready for summer? With summer fast approaching, now is the time to make sure your cooling equipment is ready for the hot days ahead. Keeping your busi- ness at the ideal temperature provides customer comfort, reduces downtime and improves employee productivity during hot weather. Here are just some of the ways to make sure your business keeps its cool: 1. Have a qualified professional perform an annual tune-up on your cooling system so it runs at its optimal energy efficiency settings. Proactive steps and small repairs can help to prevent system failures. 2. Take time to adjust thermostats and lighting controls to align with the changing season. 3. Next time you need to purchase new cooling equipment, upgrade to high efficiency to enhance your work environment, while saving energy and money. Be- fore you upgrade equipment, be sure to check out Rocky Moun- tain Power’s wattsmart® Business program for cash incentives. 4. Take advantage of the sun and enroll in Rocky Mountain Power’s Subscriber Solar pro- gram. If you need help, the energy compa- ny’s no-cost online Business Solu- tions Toolkit gives you access to ex- pert advice, calculators and articles to help you make informed decisions about cooling your business.

PET CORNER Greetings from Friends of Ivins Animal Shelter Linda Elwell, Friends of Ivins Animal Shelter More exciting news to celebrate in our 10th year of serving the homeless pets: FIAS has a new partner. Red Mountain Resort & Spa is carrying a new line of active wear, Binka. Jessica O’Doski, Designer & CEO of Binka is an animal lover and will donate 10% of each order placed by Red Mountain to FIAS. Please stop by and check out the active wear and remember each purchase will help the homeless pets in the Ivins Animal Shelter & Adoption Center. FIAS has already received our first check. The winners of the FIAS Adopt a Pet Drawing in April are Mika Peterson who adopted Duke and Kyra Baril who adopted Bryan. Congratulations to our winners and thank you for adopting a homeless pet from our shelter. We know Duke and Bryan will bring much joy and happiness to your homes. FIAS hopes everyone enjoys the prize bags. A special thank you to McKenzie Hansen for donating a free dog grooming and Brian Plait owner of Hungry Howie’s for donating free pizza coupons. FIAS provided the new pet supplies. Our “Wish for the Month” is Purina Kitten/Cat Chow, Purina Puppy Chow and scoopable litter. We continue to have a full shelter and your support of the “Wish for the Month” program helps FIAS provide quality food and maintain a regular diet for the homeless pets. This program was suggested to FIAS by a caring Ivins resident a long time ago and it has proved to be so helpful through the years. Thank you Sarah Atkin for caring! Another reminder to be cautious during this hot season, giving your pet(s) special atten- tion and care. They are counting on you to provide for their needs so they do not develop life threating symptoms from the heat. It only takes a few minutes for a pet to suffer in extreme temperatures. Please remember the homeless pets as you do your summer shop- ping. Don’t forget to Smile for FIAS. We also appreciate posts on our Facebook page when you Smile for FIAS. The information for AmazonSmile is below. FIAS still has appointments available for the FIAS Low Cost Spay/Neuter Clinic. Our veterinarian will not spay/neuter pets less than six months of age. Please email FIAS for more information.

However at the Ivins Animal Shelter two older cats are waiting for their forever homes and the adoption fees have been waived! As you may know having a cat is a healthy thing! They help lower blood pressure, provide companionship, give you someone to love, and are a constant source of entertainment! Peaches’ picture makes her look sad and she probably is. She’s waiting for her forever home where she can sit with you and keep you company. She would be so happy to have a real home and to know she is worthy to feel loved. Her shelter mate is Dol- ly a flame point tortie. She is 8 years old and a very sweet, quiet cat. If you know of a senior or someone who is home alone one of these cats would make a perfect companion. For more information please contact the Ivins Animal Shelter at 435-628-1049. INKAS wishes to give a big THANK YOU! to the Social Action Group for their generous donation to INKAS in remembrance of our good friend and supporter Barbara Rusick, former director and treasurer of INKAS. A big THANK YOU! to the Ivins Shelter team and the wonderful volunteers at the shelter INKAS - Ivins No Kill Animal Supporters Sara Dupre, Secretary
