he Herriman girls soccer team had its season come to an unexpected end in the second round of the state playoffs after a 3-4 overtime loss to Fremont. Despite the early exit, it was an overall successful year for the Mustangs under first-year head coach Ryan Rumfallo.

The season got off to a bit of a rocky start as the team went 2-3 to begin the year.

“We had a pretty tough preseason. Being new this year, I had to learn a lot about the girls and how they play,” Rumfallo said.

It also took some time for Rumfallo to install a new system into the team, one that emphasizes maximizing goal-scoring chances by shooting early and often.

The new mindset was adopted by the team, Rumfallo said, led by the leadership of team captains Kylie Sanderson, Sawyer Service and Emma Carver.

“Finishing has always been one of our weaker spots,” Carver told the Herriman Journal earlier this season. “[Coach Rumfallo] has really pushed us to believe that we can score, that we can put it in the back of the net, which I think has helped us a lot.”

It sure did help the Mustangs, as they went on to lose just one game the rest of the season and outscored their Region 3 opponents 24-4.

Senior forward Katrina Estrada led the team with 11 goals followed by Emma Carver with four, plus a team-high four assists.

Utah House District 52 Candidates on why you should vote for them

By Justin Adams | justin.a@thecityjournals.com Last month, candidates for Utah House District 52, Candice Pierucci and Catherine Voutaz, were guests on the Herriman Audio Journal, a podcast we launched this fall. We got to know them a little better and asked them a few identical questions so listeners could compare their answers. Here are those questions and answers, edited for brevity. (To listen to the interviews in their entirety, search for ‘Herriman Audio Journal’ on Spotify or Apple Podcasts, or find them on our website.)

Q: What do you think is the biggest challenge that the Herriman community is facing right now and how would you address that challenge if elected?

Catherine Voutaz: “I think the biggest challenge we have right now is getting our proper infrastructure. The reason why I say that is it can be a 30-minute commute down to Bangerter. If you’ve ever been in traffic, you know how stressful it is. That stress then puts stress on your family. I think if you can deal with some of the infrastructure and get a plan in place for that, then we can deal with mental health and mental health services because we need to have better access.”

Candice Pierucci: “I think the biggest challenge we’re facing, and it can be an opportunity, is growth. Particularly the exponential and explosive growth that we’ve seen in Herriman. As someone who grew up there, it is amazing to drive down 13400 South and see the expansion… I think it’s about preserving our quality of life. For me, infrastructure and transportation are really important. I’ve been meeting with UTA to see what opportunities are available. They’ve started a micro-transit route in our area. I think the growth impacts water so I’ve been meeting with Jordan Valley to see what a development like Olympia Hills is going to do to our water resources…

I’ve been advocating and will continue to advocate for increased funding for transporta-

tion infrastructure in our area.”

Q: What state-level issue are you passionate about being able to impact if elected?

Catherine Voutaz: “I really would like to tackle our tax policies. I think I have a great background for that (accountant). I understand how the implications of tax is on families and businesses. I think we need to look at what we’re spending our money on. I think that would be a great challenge for me. I’ve been in the corporate world for so long that having a different perspective in the public arena on how Utah spends its money would be very interesting. One thing I think is very important is the education budget. I don’t like Amendment G, I don’t like the fact that we are going to strip money out of education. I think we can do better.”

Candice Pierucci: “We’re going to be continuing to address COVID-19 and its impact. Not just the actual virus but what we’ve

seen the government’s response do. Emergency powers is something I’ve been working really hard on with colleagues to keep the transparency and checks and balances in place. Quite frankly, when you’re in a state of emergency like we are now, there is not the same checks on the expenditures.”

Q: How would you grade the state’s response to COVID-19 so far, and if elected, how would you like to help shape the state’s response going forward?

Catherine Voutaz: “I think it’s a hard job.

There are things we didn’t know at the beginning and we had to make decisions. I think it's the government's job to make those hard decisions. I think whichever side you take you’re going to get criticized. But one of the benefits we have is that we happen to be quite a rural state so the people that are being impacted the most are in the more urban areas, including Salt Lake. I think health is the first thing we have to address, and having masks is very important. It allows businesses to be able to re-

quire masks which helps reduce the spread of COVID-19... I truly believe the government has a role here. We mandate a bunch of different things like drunk driving, which tells someone they shouldn’t be driving under the influence and I think we should tell people that they should be wearing a mask. The end result is you’ll have an economy that will stay open and you’ll have kids that can go back to school. But if you just allow the spread to be pervasive, all you’re going to do is overload what we have.”

Candice Pierucci: “I really don’t think there’s been anyone who has maliciously tried to ‘damn the state’ in any way. I think COVID-19 hit us like a fastball out of nowhere. For me, I’ve never voted to extend the state of emergency. Not that I don’t take COVID-19 seriously… I’ve had it. My husband has had it. My little boy has had it. I recognize that to our high-risk categories this is catastrophic, I get that. But I think that in a state of emergency, we are giving legislative and policy-making power to the executive branch that has serious unintended consequences. So my biggest concern with our response is that we have remained in a state of emergency.

But I think there’s a lot that we’ve done right. I’ve really been excited to work with constituents to get them resources. I think we’ve done a lot of things in terms of the economy that are great. I’ve appreciated that we’ve allowed school districts to make the decisions on schools being open. I think we’ve done a lot of things right but we can always do better.”

Herriman City Council votes to dismiss City Manager Brett Wood

By Justin Adams | justin.a@thecityjournals.com

T

he Herriman City Council voted to part ways with longtime City Manager Brett Wood during a special closed door portion of its Sep. 30 meeting.

It’s not publicly known why exactly the council voted to fire Wood, though prior to going into closed session, Councilman Jared Henderson said the purpose was to discuss, “accountability for how SLR, Mountain Ridge, and the Auto Mall was or has been handled as well as other issues which now include failing to carry out direction from council.”

Assistant City Manager Wendy Thomas served as the interim-city manager for two weeks until the next city council meeting at which they formally designated her to continue acting in that role until the position is filled.

In the meantime, the council will be updating a job description for the position before putting out a call for applications.

City Attorney Chase Andrizzi said the process of accepting applications, conducting interviews and selecting a candidate can take anywhere from two months to a year. l

Continued from page 4 ground. I’m interested in our community. I love living here and I love the people that live here. I really want to make a difference in the legislature and work on issues that are important to myself as well as my constituents.”

Candice Pierucci: “I ran on the commitment to be accessible, hard-working and finding community-driven solutions. If you look at my record while I’ve been in office, I really think I’ve done that. I really believe in collaborating and building coalitions around issues and bringing the stakeholders to the table. I have worked closely with our city leaders, whom I’m grateful to have the endorsements of. I really think we work best when we’re all in tandem so I’ve made a point to regularly meet with our local area leaders, and I hope I’m able to continue doing that.” l

The City Council voted to dismiss its city manager. (File photo City Journals)

Utah National Guard takes to the skies to fight California wildfires

By Alison Brimley | a.brimley@mycityjournals.com

A

s unprecedented wildfires raged in California at the end of August, the Utah National Guard was ready to offer what assistance it could.

When guard members answered the call to assist in California, the National Guard’s 97th Aviation Troop Command, 2nd General Support Aviation Battalion, 211th Aviation Regiment was acting on a request from California through the Emergency Management Assistance Compact. The EMAC is a mutual-aid agreement between states, coordinated through state emergency management agencies. The compact means that “any state can request support from other states if they need it,” said Lt. Colonel Jeremy Tannahill, who led the Utah detachment supporting Californians in their fight against wildfires. “For instance, if Utah had an earthquake, and our forces couldn’t respond appropriately, forces from other states might be called in.”

The Utah detachment arrived in California with two UH-60L Black Hawk helicopters and nine soldiers. After departing Aug. 27 from the Army Aviation Support Facility in West Jordan, the soldiers participated in two days of training with an expert forest service firefighter in California. For the next week, they staged out of a helibase in Red Bluff, California (about 100 miles north of Sacramento).

Each day, they flew the helicopters from a small reservoir, where they would fill up with 600 gallons of water, which they would transport to a designated location and dump it on the fire. They flew for 14 hours per day.

The object of the mission was not so much to eradicate the fire as it was to cool down the fire so that ground

crews could fight it more effectively, said Tannahill. Their aim was to “buy time” for people on the ground. Tannahill said they were able to save at least one cabin and one dozer driver.

Though wildfire fighting is inherently dangerous, Tannahill said he and his crew never felt their lives were in imminent danger. “We’re very well trained,” he said. “We are risk-averse enough to not put ourselves in a situation when we’re in jeopardy. We are flying helicopters at the edge of their limits and at the edge of our limits as pilots.

But we know what we’re doing. And command did a great job at getting us the resources we needed.”

Though the Utah detachment was initially booked for 14 days, Tannahill reported they “started to get a handle on the fires” after only eight days and were able to return home early. “I don’t know the overall strategy,” he said.

His crew was playing a small part in a much larger plan.

What stands out in Tannahill’s mind, though, was not the drama or the danger of the mission, but the camaraderie and support of the crew he worked with. Some canceled family vacations when the call came in from California. One has missed the opportunity to spend the last four holidays with family for his training.

“It amazes me every time how willing and ready our National Guard soldiers are to stand up and serve,” he said. “I’ve been doing it for a lot of years, and it blows my mind every time.” l As of Sept. 14, California wildfires had burned an estimated 3.2 million acres, an area roughly the size of Connecticut.

Mountain Ridge volleyball levels up in second year

By Justin Adams | justin.a@thecityjournals.com

T

he Mountain Ridge volleyball program has made quite a leap from year one to year two.

Last year, the Sentinels went 1219 overall, with a 3-9 record in Region play. This year, they’ve flipped things around, with a 19-7 overall record and a 7-3 region record (with two games left to play).

“We’re happy with where we started and where we’ve come to. We’ve made some good progress,” said assistant coach David Johnston.

Senior outside hitter Sammy Perry leads the team with 323 kills, which is about as much as the next three players combined. She also leads all 5A players in that category.

“Sammy Perry has been outstanding all year. She leads the state in kills.

Done a really good job as a leader, as a silent assassin kind of person—who plays really well and keeps our team up,” Johnston said.

Four other seniors have been major contributors this season, including at the all-important positions of setter and libero.

“Brooklynn Fonua, our setter, has Senior setter Brooklynn Fonua watches the action after setting the ball up for her teammate. (Justin Adams/The City Journals) done a really good job moving the ball

around,” Johnston said. “Nikki Madden and Olivia Allen bring a lot of energy.

And Janessa Olson is our libero, she does a great job, really sees the ball well and controls the back court for us.”

At press time, Mountain Ridge had two remaining games against Lehi (52) and Mountain View (4-2) before the start of playoffs.

As opposed to previous years in which the state volleyball playoffs were held at Utah Valley University, the first

three rounds of matches will be hosted at the higher-seeded team’s home court.

Then the final four will take place at Salt Lake Community College on Nov. 6 and 7. Johnston thinks the Sentinels can “make some noise” during the playoffs.

“I think just enjoying the journey and improving as we’ve gone along and getting ourselves an opportunity to win at the end is something we’re hoping for as we get into state,” Johnston said. l

It's all in the family at new healthy food franchise

L

eaving a legacy for their family and a healthy lifestyle prompted a Herriman couple to open a Rush Bowls healthy food franchise.

"My husband and I always wanted to build a business as a legacy for our kids. In our search, we liked this alternative to fast food," Bridget Saunders, co-owner, said.

They carefully researched many franchises before choosing Rush Bowls.

Now they own the first Rush Bowls in Utah. It is famous for the fresh and healthy meals-in-a-bowl and fast-casual concept.

The 1,400-square-foot store opened in September in the Herriman Plaza at 13254 S. 5600 West.

"I've watched this area grow, and there are not that many healthy options are out here," she said. "We've opened a place that welcomes those that want something out of the ordinary. It's an option that makes our customers feel good about themselves, their decisions, and their bodies. They can go out and enjoy life one spoonful at a time."

Rush Bowls offer all-natural fruits and veggies topped with crunchy, organic granola, a drizzle of honey, and a choice of fresh fruits and toppers. Saunders said their product is healthier than the traditional fast-casual meal that usually comes with French fries.

By Stephanie DeGraw | s.degraw@mycityjournals.com Rush Bowls are fully customizable and can be blended with protein, vitamins, and other nutritious ingredients while remaining low in calories and fat content.

"We're thrilled to bring Rush Bowls to Herriman and encourage the entire community to enjoy a healthy lifestyle in a convenient way," she said.

Their family is involved in the business. Saunders' stepson, Christian, serves as the store's general manager. "I grew up in Herriman. I went to school here. I know the town. I know the people," Christen said. "I know that Rush Bowls is the perfect answer to the growing demand for a healthy alternative to fast food in the area."

A wide assortment of bowls and smoothies, along with local favorites, a special kids menu, and a Bow Wow Bowl made just for dogs, are offered. "A Rush Bowl is a complete meal-in-a-bowl designed to satisfy your hunger and fuel your rush," said Christian. "With up to five servings of fruits and vegetables and up to 40 grams of protein in each bowl, eating well on the go has never been easier."

For those customers with dietary restrictions, vegetarian, vegan, wheat-free, gluten-free, soy-free, dairy-free, and nut-free options are also available at no extra charge.

Friday. Saturday, 7 a.m. to 9 p.m. and Sunday from 8 a.m. to 7 p.m.

People can order online on their website https://rushbowls.com/herriman or through an app like DoorDash, GrubHub, Postmates, and soon UberEats.

The Rush Bowls franchise began near the University of Colorado in Boulder, CO in 2004. It started as a way to provide healthy meal options for college students. But the popularity quickly grew into surrounding communities, where residents were also seeking nutritious alternatives.

"While expanding our national footprint and anchoring ourselves as a major player in the health food industry, we have cultivated a fiercely loyal following," franchise founder Andrew Pudalove said. "We're confident that Herriman will be no different."

The health benefits of Rush Bowls' products are especially crucial amidst a pandemic, he said. Pudalov was a Wall Street executive who decided to leave New York's financial scene to pursue his dream.

Today, there are 31 locations open and operating in 18 states, with over 100 others in various development stages across 21 states. l

Bridget's husband, Josh Saunders, has another full-time job elsewhere but helps close the store. "He even washes the windows," she said. "He doesn't like streaks in the windows."

Christian's mother, Jennifer Rzezsut, and her husband Don manage the store's social media on Instagram and Facebook under Rush Bowls Herriman. The hours of operation are 6 a.m. to 9 p.m. Monday through

CHAMBER NEWS We welcomed Iron Mountain Chiropractic!

Here is a little about Dr. Hortsman: In the middle of his 8th grade football season Dr. Horstman’s lower back began to hurt. As the season went on the pain increased to where he was not able to walk. With basketball season coming and unable to play he visited a couple of doctors and was told to rest, ice, and do these exercises or those exercises but nothing was helping. His parents decided to take him to the chiropractor in which Dr. Horstman’s response was, “What’s a chiropractor?” He went and received his first chiropractic adjustment. Instantly he felt better and played in his basketball game that same night without any pain. That was the moment Dr. Horstman knew he wanted to be a Chiropractic Physician so he could treat and help others with lower back pain and other physical ailments like his own.

In 2012 Dr. Horstman graduated from Cleveland Chiropractic University-Kansas City.

Following graduation, he began practicing in Colorado. Two years later he began Iron Mountain Chiropractic in Missouri. For 5 years Dr. Horstman built a successful practice and in July of 2019 he and his wife felt that they needed to move to Utah to be close to family. Iron Mountain Chiropractic focuses and specializes in full-body chiropractic adjustments, massage, and auto accident care and other personal injury cases. We are experienced in treating a variety of conditions, such as lower back pain, neck pain, headaches, whiplash, and extremity discomfort. All ages from newborns to geriatric patients can benefit from chiropractic care.

OVID has restricted parents from their normal volunteering and support at their children’s schools. At Athlos Academy of Utah, no parents volunteers are allowed to enter the school building.

Even the Parent Teacher Organization (PTO) is not allowed to hold meetings in the building or help run class parties or fundraiser activities.

“With COVID this year, unfortunately everything just looks a little different,” PTO President Elect Mogan Fountain said.

“As a PTO we felt that our teachers were feeling that extra strain this year, and we wanted to be there to support them anyway we could. We knew that we couldn't allow parent volunteers into the school, so we wanted to come up with a way we could still help and be there for them and their students.”

After brainstorming with parents and teachers, the PTO created the volunteer position of Morale Booster, a parent who works with the teacher to help provide any needs that come up and to help them feel more loved and appreciated.

“Our goal this year is to shower our teachers with our love and support any way we can,” Fountain said. “I feel it is very important we do anything we can to make sure our teachers are shown our love and appreciation throughout a very tough year.”

Third grade teacher Carly Hooper said her morale booster has been able to help from a distance with many tasks such as laminating, preparing classroom activities, creating projects, and making decorations for the bulletin board.

“I know I can count on them to get things done quickly so that I can focus on lesson planning, grading, and individualized help for students,” Hooper said.

Other morale boosters have created sign-ups to collect supplies teachers will need for the month, including those for holiday parties they will be running without parents’ help.

As morale booster for kindergarten teacher Breanna Beltran, Fountain will make sure she has enough supplies so that each student has their own to use throughout the year. Fountain also notified parents when it was the teacher’s birthday.

“I wanted to make the parents aware and see what we could to let her know how much we love and appreciate all see does,” Fountain said. “I sent in a little present for her with my child and a note.”

Jo Whittaker, a fourth grade teacher, said she loves the support.

“The PTO has been sending in small

treats, one parent sent me flowers on a really stressful day, and others in my class are constantly emailing words of encouragement and thanks,” Whittaker said. “Those emails mean more than any material item could.”

When morale booster Maddie Purser checked in with her teacher, sped teacher Lauren Case, at the beginning of October, she found out that the teacher was in desperate need of pencils.

“I give out a lot of pencils to students that I don’t get back,” Case said. “Normally I would just go buy them myself, but Maddie bought some and sent them in with her daughter along with a Diet Coke. It was so thoughtful and it’s so nice to feel supported.”

One of the biggest requests from teachers this year is supplies.

“I think the biggest challenge is making sure I have enough supplies for all the students,” Hooper said. “We have already used a majority of our clorox wipes and hand sanitizer so that will be their next project.”

Athlos traditionally hold supply drives twice a year but now morale boosters will do it monthly, at the classroom level.

Every teacher (except three still waiting for a parent volunteer) will have a parent assigned to them, which is new for some of them.

“We've never done room parents for our athletic coaches, our music teacher, or our special ed teachers because they don't have a home room,” said Purser, who has served on the PTO board for years. “I felt like it was important to add them to this list this year.”

Because being a morale booster is less of a commitment than a traditional room parent and several parents signed up to support more than one teacher.

“It's not hard to send an email once a month to your teacher and kind of see what they need and how you can help and then do your best to meet those needs given the parameters the school has,” Purser said. “If any teacher at any point gets a little bit of extra help they weren't going to get, then I think the program will be successful.”

Whittaker said she appreciates any way parents can relieve some of her workload.

“Teachers are jumping through more hoops this year, and last spring, than ever before,” she said. “Many teachers are required to teach students in-house and online. It is extremely hard and exhausting. I am exhausted.” l

Kids make history with COVID Memory Project

By Jet Burnham | j.burnham@mycityjournals.com

W

hat was daily life like for kids living through the last global pandemic?

We don’t really know.

“There are very few written accounts of the 1918 Spanish Flu Pandemic; we have pictures, but very few accounts of how people handled their regular lives,” Copper Hills High history teacher Lorna Murray said. “We are not going to make that mistake again. Personal accounts are essential for understanding not only the past, but also the present when the past gets repeated, such as this pandemic.

Hopefully, a pandemic is a once-in-a-lifetime experience. We must leave a better record behind us than what we got in 1918.”

Murray assigned her history students last spring and again this fall to share their personal experiences of living through this COVID-19 pandemic with The Utah Division of State History. Historical Collections Curator Lisa Barr is heading up a collection of primary source accounts from K-12 students. Young people are invited to share their pandemic experience—how it has affected their school, family, extracurricular activities and lifestyle. Kids can answer a questionnaire or submit journal entries, artwork or photographs which will all become part of a permanent collection in the state archives.

“We have access and ability to collect this info in a way they couldn’t 100 years ago,” Barr said. “Technology has so much to do with the way we're navigating the pandemic and kids are very savvy to that.”

Barr said the responses, which have come from children and teens across the state, have varied widely and are representative of how the pandemic is affecting them differently. The mood of the entries has varied, from the shock of changes in spring to the “new normal” by autumn.

Some express frustration, others optimism.

A 12 year old wrote:“We’ve had to wear masks now. And we have had a ton of deaths. I didn’t leave my house to do anything except go on a walk or bike ride with my family. It was weird being home so much.”

A 14 year old wrote: “I have many negative impacts from the pandemic, but I think that the biggest impacts on me are isolation from friends and extended family members, as well as cancellation of sports, clubs, and school. I could go on and on but I think that it is safe to say that the pandemic is one of the worst and best things I have experienced.”

Common themes in submissions so far have been students missing teachers, friends and family and missing out on endof-the-year school activities and family traditions.

One child shared: “Before the pan-

Page 18 | November 2020

demic I would play baseball every Friday, Saturday or Sunday. And if I got lucky, all three days in a row...I still play baseball, but only with my parents. We go to empty parks and stay at least six feet away from people and it’s still fun...My family and I would go to a Dodgers game once a year, it's kinda like a tradition but this will be the first year in a long time we won’t be able to go.”

A 12 year old wrote: “During quarantine my grandparents would do drive-by visits. We also did some door drop-off surprises for my cousins. We did lots of Facetime and texting. Once we were free to get out of our houses, we did a lot of activities together. I missed seeing my grandparents and cousins.”

Students have also shared how they’re discovering things about themselves they wouldn’t have known—like learning better online or strengthening family relationships.

“I have been learning how to cook more complex meals...and I’ve been getting more into art recently,” said one child.

A teenager wrote: “I have recently started learning how to play the ukulele again. I have also learned some new tricks on the trampoline. I think that I have gotten better with house chores.”

Another wrote: “I’ve been a better person then I could’ve been. I’ve learned to get along with my little brothers. I’ve also had lots of time to spend with my big brother and we talked a lot. I enjoyed being with my family.”

Barr said this project gets kids excited about history.

“A lot of time, in order to get history to matter for people, you have to make it personal and so this is a great opportunity to do that,” Barr said.

Joy Anderson, who teaches U.S. history at Oquirrh Hills Middle School, agrees.

“It is always beneficial to have a perspective that students can truly relate to,” Anderson said. "If they see something from someone their own age, they always pay more attention to it than an adult's perspective.”

Anderson, who also assigned her students to submit entries for the collection, said her students will someday be answering these questions for their children or grandchildren for their history class. She said it is almost impossible to find primary sources from a young person's perspective for her class content so a collection of this kind will be helpful for future teachers.

So, in 100 years, students will be able to study this entry written by a 13 year old in the early months of the pandemic: “We have to be by each other all the time. My older sister and I try to hide in our rooms

Some entries provided advice to future generations facing a pandemic: “It changes your life. You realize all the blessings you have and are thankful for your health. I believe it’s a great thing that happened to slow us down in life.”

“I would want future generations to know that something like this truly changes your life! To experience something like this, well, it is really tough. It’s not easy.

But, I do think maybe this will shape my future in a good way. So, never give up!”

“Sure we have to wear a mask but it does not mask who we are or how we act.

Some people exaggerate corona just a little bit, just a little...If people like me look on the bright side and see things from a different point of view, we realize that we are ok. We still get to do fun things and we can still learn things like normal.”

Barr said they will collect submissions as long as the pandemic continues.

The submissions will be digitized and stored as part of a special collections archive which will be available for public research or, possibly, a public special exhibit in the future. l

Perhaps the biggest challenge for the team this year was dealing with the uncertainty of playing amid COVID-19.

“They have to come to practice every day not knowing if they’re going to get a call saying they have to quarantine.

I can’t even express how proud of them I am because it’s so difficult for them to come here and focus and put in the work, play two games a week, while having that constant thing in the back of their head,” Rumfallo said.

In the season-ending loss to Fremont, the team was without one of its starters due to COVID-19 precautions, which may have just been the difference in a game as razor-tight as it was.

Fremont struck first, but Herriman was able to retake the lead before the half thanks to a goal from Katrina Estrada and a corner kick that was mishandled by the Fremont keeper and ruled to have crossed the goal line. The Mustangs added

to their lead in the second half, again off of a Katrina Estrada goal.

But momentum shifted a little bit when Herriman got called for a handball in the penalty box which resulted in a goal for Fremont with about 10 minutes left in the game. It was looking like Herriman would hang on but with less than a minute remaining, Fremont got the equalizer it needed off of an impressive long-distance shot.

Heading into overtime, the lower-seeded Fremont team had all the momentum and nothing to lose, and capitalized again on an even more impressive shot from range.

“Sometimes that’s just the way it goes. I can’t say the girls weren’t pushing themselves. I just feel like, gotta hand it to Fremont. They pushed and got the goal that mattered in the end,” said Rumfallo. “Sometimes when there’s a good oneon-one play or a good shot, I can be upset because we lost the game over that, but I’m not upset at the effort our girls gave at all.” l

Voting by mail has been one of the hot topics of this election season. National headlines have questioned both the security and the process. Salt Lake County voters should not be concerned, as our county has had years of experience in voting by mail, and our Salt Lake County Clerk has been running successful, secure, and reliable voteby-mail elections since 2013. As a Salt Lake County voter, you can be sure that your vote will be counted. In fact, Utah was ranked second in the nation for protecting voter privacy and data.

The Salt Lake County Clerk mailed ballots on October 13th to all active registered voters in the county. Your ballot should have arrived in your mailbox that same week. Ballots returned by mail must be postmarked on or before November 2nd (the day before Election Day) to be counted.

Besides having a postage-paid envelope to return your ballot, Salt Lake County has offered 21 secure drop boxes throughout Salt Lake County where ballots can be returned. The locations are listed on the ballot instructions in-

cluded in ballot packets, and can be found at got-vote.org. Ballots can also be returned to the county clerk’s office or to a vote center. If you aren’t returning your ballot by mail, it must be dropped off at one of the above locations before 8 p.m. on Election Day. A limited number of vote centers will be open on Election Day, but with all social distancing guidelines and precautions around the pandemic, voters are encouraged to use the vote-by-mail system to avoid potential lines and long waits. The vote centers are to accommodate those who did not receive a ballot in the mail.

Some people may not realize how ballots are processed and counted.

When the ballots arrive at the clerk’s office to be processed, the first step is a signature match. This is done electronically by a state-of-the-art machine designed just for this purpose. Ballots with signatures that don’t match what the clerk has on file are “challenged” and the voter is contacted to confirm their identity. Once they’ve verified the voter’s identity, the signature and the

ballot are then separated to protect the voter’s privacy and the ballot goes into another machine to be counted.

After the clerk tabulates all the votes, the results are then certified by the Board of Canvassers, comprised of the Salt Lake County Council Members. The official results are then sent to the State Elections Office. In Salt Lake County we have cameras filming all rooms where ballots are held.

There must be at least two people in an area when ballots are handled. Salt Lake County has been complimented by elections attorneys around the country for our secure process. In Utah, you can track your ballot’s progress at vote. utah.gov to make sure it is counted.

I’m sure I’m not the only one who can’t wait for the election season to end, but at least we know that here in Salt Lake County voters can rest assured that their ballots will be counted, that the process is secure, and that their privacy is protected. l

Laughter AND

PERI KINDER

Falling Apart

Well, 2020 finally broke me. I’m overwhelmed, worried about COVID, stressed about the election, climate change, immigration and poverty, and disillusioned to learn Ellen DeGeneres is an actress. It feels like someone shook Pandora’s Box 2.0 like a maraca, releasing sadness, greed and hubris.

I started this column dozens of times, but it feels like my funny is numb. I’d begin writing but devolve into an angry rant where I’m pounding the keyboard like a furious Elton John. I’ve gone feral.

During yoga, I asked my students for advice on how to find my funny. They suggested sharing recipes for Doomsday Survival beverages like Meltdown Mimosas and Disaster Daquiris. I’m afraid if I start researching drinks, I’d sober up around Groundhog Day. (If there is a Groundhog Day in 2021.)

I’m run through a gamut of feelings, enough emotions to create a second or third generation of Snow White’s Seven Dwarfs. I start each day with Hangry then work my way through Weepy, Lonely, Screamy, Worry, Panic and Gloomy. My husband never knows which Peri he’ll bump into when we pass in the hall. It makes everyday discussions a bit wobbly.

Hubbie: What sounds good for dinner?

Me: We’re on a spinning planet, slowly moving toward the sun where we’ll be consumed like a fly in a bug zapper.

Hubbie: So . . . enchiladas?

Americans are resilient, right? We’ve been through tough times, right?

We’ll come together and make the best decisions for our country . . . oh, who am I kidding?

I started screaming at the moon every night like some kind of demon weredog. I’m sure my neighbors are terrified. (Sidenote: I hope someone who’s been living in a bunker since Y2K finally emerged this year to see if it’s safe to come out. Joke’s on them.)

My meditation practice has become a slow descent into madness.

But then.

I zoom in close and watch my grandkids teach a disinterested dog to roll over. I see myriad kindnesses in my life like chocolate, warm blankets and Disaster Daquiris. I zoom out and witness this beautiful world with its billions of people just doing the best they can. Compassion is abundant.

I talk to the trees (literally). I smell pumpkin spice (everywhere). I hike through gorgeous canyons, watching leaves release their grip on branches and freefall to the ground. The stillness settles my thoughts.

I don’t know if you’ll read this before or after the election. I don’t know if we’re facing martial law, a presidential coup or (finally) an alien invasion.

But I know optimism feels better than despair.

We can continue to Catastrophe Scroll though vile social media posts, created by friendless trolls with no sense of humor and a serious case of ringworm, or we can turn off our phones and relearn what “community” means.

One day soon, we’ll have to acknowledge the friendships we’ve lost, the unnecessary arguments we waged and the times we refused to back down. It will be a political hangover of epic proportions, especially if you’ve been drinking Calamity Cosmopolitans.

Those who follow my social media platforms know where I stand politically, and it’s easy to look at the rage in the world and point fingers at The Other Side.

I can stop the blame game, but I won’t stop calling for equality, justice and inclusion in places it doesn’t exist. We must remember that Hope remained in Pandora’s Box. It’s our job to nurture it. l

he Herriman girls soccer team had its season come to an unexpected end in the second round of the state playoffs after a 3-4 overtime loss to Fremont. Despite the early exit, it was an overall successful year for the Mustangs under first-year head coach Ryan Rumfallo.

The season got off to a bit of a rocky start as the team went 2-3 to begin the year.

“We had a pretty tough preseason. Being new this year, I had to learn a lot about the girls and how they play,” Rumfallo said.

It also took some time for Rumfallo to install a new system into the team, one that emphasizes maximizing goal-scoring chances by shooting early and often.

The new mindset was adopted by the team, Rumfallo said, led by the leadership of team captains Kylie Sanderson, Sawyer Service and Emma Carver.

“Finishing has always been one of our weaker spots,” Carver told the Herriman Journal earlier this season. “[Coach Rumfallo] has really pushed us to believe that we can score, that we can put it in the back of the net, which I think has helped us a lot.”

It sure did help the Mustangs, as they went on to lose just one game the rest of the season and outscored their Region 3 opponents 24-4.

Senior forward Katrina Estrada led the team with 11 goals followed by Emma Carver with four, plus a team-high four assists.
