Kambell Richards quietly goes from cancer treatment to leading Century to best state finish ever
Kambell Richards couldn’t stop crying. One bad hole in the opening round of the 5A state golf tournament on Oct. 12 had opened the floodgates for the Century senior. When coach Mikel Green met up with her near the turn at The Links Golf Club in Post Falls, she walked alongside Richards and reminded her how far she had come. “She was just like, ‘But nobody else knows that,’” Green said. “And I was like, ‘No, nobody would. But you’re amazing.’” Few people did know. Just months earlier, Richards had been diagnosed with melanoma. She spent her summer in treatment, had surgery in August and missed the first month and a half of her final high school season. But none of that stopped her from finishing third and leading the Diamondbacks to a runner-up finish — the best in program history. “I didn’t know if she would be able to even come back,” said Green a cancer survivor herself. “I didn’t know if she’d be able to come back and be as strong as she was.” Richards was golfing with her family at Juniper Hills Country Club in the spring. While sizing up a shot, she rested her hand against

Every Animal Living At This Idaho Zoo Is A Species Found In The Wild Across The State
A grizzly bear named Shoni was once labeled a nuisance bear. Instead of a sad ending, she got a new home at a small zoo in eastern Idaho. That zoo has an unusual rule. Every animal living there is a species you could find in the wild somewhere across the state.

Reel Theatre to show John Wayne’s ‘True Grit’ on Saturday
POCATELLO — The Reel Theatre will show the 1969 Western “True Grit” at 7:15 p.m. Saturday, with more classic-film screenings possible if turnout is strong. The screening is meant to give moviegoers a chance to see an old favorite on a theater screen with surround sound and an audience. If enough people come and enjoy it, the theater may add more vintage titles, including other Westerns, Alfred Hitchcock thrillers and holiday classics. Tickets are $3. Organizer Kirby Jonas said people who want a seat should arrive early, because he has heard from many interested viewers across East Idaho, including Idaho Falls. Jonas said a home copy of the movie is cheap and easy to find, but it does not compare with watching on a big screen with other fans. The idea for a local classic-movie screening came from a trip to Mackay shortly before the COVID-19 pandemic. An old theater there was showing “American Graffiti” as part of a classic-film program, and Jonas and his wife drove up to see it. Ever since, Jonas said he has wanted to bring something similar to the Reel, located at 310 E. Oak St. Jonas is friends with theater owners Saundra and Clesie
