The varied talents of local artist and teacher, Marie Lindahl, will be showcased at the Fairview Museum of History and Art. Her artworks not only include oil paintings, but also tapestry and cross stitch. An opening reception will be held from 6:30-8 p.m., Friday, June 14.

Marie Lindahl artwork takes center stage at Fairview museum FAIRVIEW—The artwork of the talented local artist Marie Lindahl will be displayed at the Fairview Museum of History and Art with an outstanding exhibit entitled, “Oils and Cross Stitch” on Friday, June 14. A reception to celebrate Marie’s exceptional talents will be held from 6:30 to 8 p.m., that evening. The public is encourage to come and view her art, tapestries and cross stitch pieces and observe her outstanding workmanship. The museum is located at 85 North 100 East in Fairview. Marie’s story goes back many years to when she was 13 and her dreams and imaginations were first pursued by signing up for lessons in colored pencil drawing. This endeavor led to basic art classes in high school where the novice artist was selected to design the art work for the Granite High School yearbook in Salt Lake City, a publication which won national awards year after year. Following high school graduation, Marie attended the University of Utah on an academic scholarship and graduated summa cum laude as valedictorian of the College of Nursing. Art was not pursued at this time since the family needed a substantial and reliable income due to medical expenses. Because of many long hours of hospital work and on-call duty, art was put on the back burner for several years until a position in the medical field became available which offered a 40-hour work week of daytime hours. In 1974 Marie met an oil painting instructor and this instructor taught her landscape styles that she wanted to pursue. She would attend occasional art classes at her neighborhood craft store. This all gave Marie enough instruction and practice to launch her own path of inspiration. Since then, she has continued to pursue her ongoing artistic creativity. As work allowed, the artist resumed self-instruction, seeking technique demonstration from other artists having a style specific to her interests. Periodic evening classes at a local art store provided more training. Following her mother’s death in 1982, Marie was sponsored by friends in the medical community to hold several private exhibits, where she first began to sell her work. These earlier works are signed in the maiden name of Miklas since Marie did not marry until 1991. Artwork took another rest when Please see LINDAHL, Page A1

Annual WA junior river trip refreshes spirits MT. PLEASANT — Each spring the Wasatch Academy (WA) junior class floats down the Green River, through Desolation and Gray Canyons, for a four-day river trip in the canyon wilderness of central Utah. The students leave the distractions of technology, classes and routine to bond with classmates and embrace a new role as next year’s leaders in the community. Additionally, the trip gives students a chance to refresh their minds and spirits before their final week of the school year. The weather during the river trip included beautiful spring temperatures and a bit of wind and rain. Even with these weather challenges, students maintained a very positive and upbeat attitude. The faculty, staff and river guides were all impressed with how well the students handled

The end of The Miracle The Wasatch Academy junior class recently floated down the Green River, through Desolation and Gray Canyons. (Photo courtesy of Wasatch Academy) themselves. The students did a great job learning how to stay safe and warm in the wilderness. Indeed, faculty and staff reported that the students who were the most reluctant on the first day of the trip were the same students who said, “this river trip is my favorite

experience since coming to Wasatch!” The trip gave students the chance to get to know new classmates, gain self-confidence from learning outdoor skills, appreciate the gorgeous landscape in Utah and learn about the natural and cultural history of the Green River.

Sometimes the experiences that seem the most challenging to students at first are the memories that stay with students the longest. Like the student who rowed a boat seven miles down the river by herself and now wants to be a river guide and learn more rafting skills.

The Mormon Miracle Pageant ends a week from Saturday on June 22nd. I mean, it really ends – as in it will be the last performance ever. The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints has decided that most church pageants will be phased out, as I understand it. Evidently it is felt that the Manti Pageant has served its purpose. The lights will go down forever after the eight-night run of the show this year. I have mixed feelings. It’s hard to see traditions be retired. But it will certainly free up a lot of time for Sanpete families who have been so involved for so many years. For those connected to the pageant, there have been so many long hours of planning, rehearsals and performances. I’ve known some of the directors over the years. There are many early mornings and late nights. There has been lots of hard labor setting up scenery and getting thousands and thousands of chairs arranged for the audience. There are dozens and dozens involved in behind the scenes work that most people never think about. The costume staff is just one category. Fatigue sets in before the performance run even begins. I call it being “miracle whipped.” But it must not be too bad, because Sanpete has pitched in to do it year after year. No one has taken me seriously when I have suggested that we should do the Mormon Miracle Pageant just once every 10 years like the famous Passion Play in Oberammergau, Germany. That play runs again next year in 2020, so the residents there are now “on break.” I do think it’s a lot of fun to have all the extra people around for the pageant. Those responsible for crowd and traffic control probably wouldn’t agree with me. They have a lot to manage as Sanpete nearly doubles in size on some days. The good thing about having visitors here is that they are just that –visitors. After their visit, they leave and go back to their own homes. The pageant has been performed every year since 1967. There are some people around who can say they’ve been involved every year since the very beginning. I’ve told people that the pageant has a very effective method of getting people to help; but it has had no method of letting people “retire.” I’ve had something to do with the pageant since coming to Sanpete in 1984. I’ve kept thinking that I should retire, but once you’re in it, it’s hard to quit. But, we’ll all go into retirement after this year. I don’t know how many people were involved in the production in the early years, but nowadays, there are hundreds and hundreds of people scurrying around up on the temple hill in the cast, crew and supporting staff.

The “new” scene in the pageant, which was added some years ago, is spectacular just by the fact that so many people are involved. It’s called the “Christ in America” scene. The first part of the scene depicts a great storm and earthquakes at the time of Christ’s death. There are a few hundred cast members running around like chickens with heads cut off amidst flashing lights and propane generated fireball pyrotechnics. Everyone is in biblical type costumes. And remember, this is being done on a steep, grassy hillside that can be slick. In spite of careful choreography and instructions, I believe the real miracle of the pageant is that the flames haven’t roasted anybody and that no cast member has been trampled to death during that scene. I’m not in the cast this year. I’ll just have to remember the years that I was on stage in costume as George Washington, Brigham Young, and in other roles. In years past, I have, at times, stepped in on short notice a few times and did parts that I wasn’t familiar with. One night, I dislocated my shoulder at the end of a scene. When the stage went dark, I marched off the set a different direction than I was acquainted with — thinking I knew where I was going. Suffice it to say, I didn’t know where I was going and stepped off into thin air and got injured. If you haven’t seen the pageant for a few years, this year is the “last call.” I know that there are many Sanpeters who haven’t been in the audience for many years. Some make it a matter of pride that they stay away and out of sight during pageant time. If you miss it this year, you’ve missed it – for good. I’ve wondered if there’s a Guinness Book of World Records category for greatest number of folding chairs set up in a short amount of time. I think the Manti pageant would be in the running. It’s amazing to see well over 10,000 chairs go up in a short amount of time. The number of chairs has grown significantly over the years at the pageant. I think they have purposely reduced the size of the “blanket section” over time. I have a feeling that there have been too many young people on blankets paying more attention to each other than they have been to the show. As we work through the last of “the miracle” next week, we need to encourage each other. Everyone deserves a final pat on the back for pulling this event off every year. For one more season Sanpete will host the world and we’re going to have fun doing it. Then, the miracle will just exist in our memories as we move forward to new adventures. Enjoy the pageant Sanpete. It’s about to become part of our history.

MT. PLEASANT — Wasatch Academy students recently presented their version of The Brothers Grimm Spectaculathon. All the student actors gave laughable performances in their roles and provided a wonderful night of entertainment. The outlook was anything but grim during the awesomely offbeat production of The Brothers Grimm Spectaculathon. Published in 2007 and written by playwright Don Zolidis, The Brothers Grimm Spectaculathon quickly became a staple among high school and community theatre groups. The play is noteworthy for its comedic interweaving of both well-known and obscure Brothers Grimm fairy tales such as Cinderella and The Devil’s Grandmother, its audacious smashing of the fourth wall and its lively incorporation of audience interaction. The production’s greatest boons were its high energy, strong characterization and cohesive ensemble work by all students involved. From characters with one line to the principal roles, nearly every actor took advantage of their stage time, creating distinct and memorable characters. The actors also incorporated the audience in an effective and non-distracting manner. Sydney Bladen and Frankie Sobel were delightful as Nar-

rators 1 and 2, respectively. Both helped keep the sometimes frenetic production grounded and offered an ever-present and humorous backbone to the production. The pair was effective both as a cohesive ensemble and as individual actors. Bladen created a wildly enthusiastic, mildly oafish and oddly endearing character and often had to be reined in by Sobel’s more focused, but still lovably charming demeanor. Several featured actors gave admirable performances in their roles as the Brothers Grimm fairy tale characters. Diego Ruiz Osorio was a standout as the Prince and the Devil. His lovable, enchanting portrayal of the Devil would make anyone want to make a deal with him. As the charming and handsome Prince, Osorio made it certain that the audience would fall in love with him along with Rapunzel. Richard Culp’s characterization of the impressionable Hansel hilariously implored his sister to succumb to peer pressure. Sydney Bladen was simultaneously humorous and harrowing as the archetypal Enchantress. Armed with a vendetta against the patriarchal constraints of society and devotion to new wave feminism, Bladen’s portrayal of the oft-maligned Enchantress offered a new, comical twist on why she is so protective of Rapunzel.

WA highlights alumni, retiring educator Dave Huls MT. PLEASANT — Dave Huls first stepped onto the Wasatch Academy (WA) campus as a student in 1968. Little did he know that 51 years later he would find himself retiring from teaching at the school. As Mr. Huls, to his students, and Dave, to his classmates, finishes up his professional career, Wasatch Academy wanted to know about his experience as both a student and educator at WA. When did you attend WA? I first came as a junior in 1968 and graduated in 1970. What were your favorite classes while at school? WA gave me a chance to try a lot of different things. However, art/film classes and Spanish were by far my favorites. The first time I ever picked up a camera was at WA. They let me experiment and learn hands-on and supported me in what I was doing. Little did I know it would lead to a career in media. Who were the teachers that most impacted your time here? Ms. Kerr and Mrs. Olmsted.

Ms. Kerr helped me understand math. It was just a foreign concept, and she made sense of it to me. I credit her patience and understanding in helping me make sense of math. Mrs. Olmstead let me use my creativity with an 8mm film camera. I enjoyed making movies while at school. Using that 8mm film camera gave me the drive to look into the field as a potential career. What is your most memorable moment as a student? My most memorable moment was when I was elected Snow Ball King. Tell us about life after WA… As for my career, after graduating in Telecommunications from the University of Utah, I worked at the local NBC affiliate (KUTV at that time). I worked my way up from parttime cameraman to news director and editor. I then went to work for a production facility, Skaggs Telecommunications in various positions — account executive, operations manager, and producer. I also freelanced for

Dave Huls, retiring educator and WA Class of 1970 alumni, flashes the “W” to show his support for Wasatch Academy (WA). (Photo courtesy of Wasatch Academy) ESPN and on movie sets. Then, in 1994, I moved to Denver to work for DirecTV. When I started, they had 100 customers! I worked for them as an editor and technical employee until coming to WA in 2016. What brought you back to

WA? I wanted to share the knowledge I had gained working in TV with future generations. Plus, the school was looking for a film teacher. I knew Head of School Joseph Loftin from the ’90s when we created a video for him of the school for marketing pur-

poses. So, he realized I knew video, and it seemed a perfect fit for me. What classes did you teach here? Digital Video/Film. What was the most unexpected thing you learned from WA as a teacher? How much work goes into being an effective teacher. As a student, I never fully understood how much work all my teachers put into helping us all learn. I am more grateful than ever to those who went above and beyond to help me succeed. How has WA stayed the same, and how have we changed since your time as a student? It stayed the same in it being one big family, and we all care for each other. It has changed in its global outreach and expanded facilities. The campus is incredible, and the students today have so many tools to learn, grow and succeed. What is your most significant memory as a teacher at WA? My most significant memory was students telling me they learned a lot from me

WA Class of 2019 graduates MT. PLEASANT — As a society, people hold great value in a high school diploma. It’s a ticket of admittance into the world of higher education. It’s recognized as a tremendous personal achievement. It’s the “cherry on top.” But what is it that people truly value within an educational experience? When all is said and done, the real value is found in the community and camaraderie that support students through this experience. That is precisely what the Wasatch Academy (WA) Class of 2019 accomplished. Head of School Joseph Loftin recognized this year’s graduating class with great reverence, “You lived the Wasatch Academy core values of respect and community in your service to the school, your collaboration on classroom projects, and your leadership in school

activities. Shaping an environment where students were accepted for their differences. Everyone’s voice mattered.” Loftin understands the importance that friendship holds in the community and reminds everyone of what things hold real value in their day-to-day lives. Student speaker Karuna Loftin admitted, “Life as a student is eventful,” and she would know having grown up on campus. She encouraged her underclassmen to find the value in the community she so cherished. “Get involved,” she said, “even if it’s scary. And please appreciate and take advantage of the support you get here. The community support is what makes Wasatch Academy stand apart.” During the ceremony, commencement speaker, Lt. Gov-

and that I was their favorite teacher. What parting lessons would you like to leave with alumni and current students? Support WA as much as you can because it is a unique school and needs to continue to serve students from around the world to make an impact. Alumni can look back and realize what WA did for them. You are approaching your class’s 50th reunion, why do you think it’s important to come back to campus and celebrate milestone reunion years? It is important for others from our class to realize we still have a very tight bond with each other. Plus, I’m hoping to see some classmates I haven’t seen since graduation. What do you hope for the future of WA? I hope it continues to do well and move forward in the path of Joe Loftin’s vision. As Dave Huls leaves campus in early June, the WA community appreciates him for all he has done over the years and looks forward to him visiting campus in the future.

DWR regional fishing report UTAH DWR — Updated fishing reports from around the area and safe fishing tips provided by Utah Division of Wildlife Resources (DWR) are as follows: Benches Pond Fishing is good at Benches Pond, especially early in the morning or later in the evening. Try using worms, PowerBait or spinners for catching these. Garlic PowerBait has worked especially well. Highway 31 is now open, and tributaries to Benches Pond are now fishable. Boulger Reservoir Fishing has been good at Boulger Reservoir. Nine Mile Reservoir There are no recent fishing reports. Try using garlic/ chartreuse or corn PowerBait or garlic marshmallow fished 12- to 18-inches off the bottom using a fixed or slip sinker rig. Also, try using 1/4-ounce silver or copper Blue Fox Classic Vibrax spinners, 1/6-once brass/ red spot or chrome/red dot Lil Jake Lures, or 1/4-ounce Acme Little Cleo spoons. Palisade Reservoir The reservoir was stocked with rainbow trout on May 21. Try using 1/6-once brass/

red spot or Y5D/silver Lil Jake Lures, 1/4-ounce gold or holographic tiger Panther Martin Willow Strike spinners, or 1/4-once hammered gold or chrome Acme Kastmasters. Also, try using yellow or garlic/chartreuse PowerBait, or a marshmallow with a bit of nightcrawler fished 15- to 18-inches off the bottom using a fixed or slip sinker rig, or a nightcrawler fished 16- to 24-inches below a bobber. Safe fishing tips • Patience. While anglers may be hoping to catch large fish, it is normal to catch some smaller fish as well. So be patient during the experience and don’t get frustrated if the size caught is not what was hoped for. Remember to have fun and that catching larger fish takes patience. • Don’t only use large lures. Many anglers tend to only use large lures when they want to catch larger fish, thinking that only large fish will be able to take a large lure. While there is some truth to that, don’t ignore the smaller lures and flies — some of the biggest fish have been caught on small lures.

An 11 lb. splake was caught by Kenna Hepworth of Santaquin at Joes Valley Reservoir. (Photo by Dale Hepworth, Utah DWR) High water Because rivers are running high and fast this spring and there are high water levels at the lakes and reservoirs, an-

glers should be very cautious in and around the water. If going out on the water via a boat or float tube, anglers must have a personal floatation device.

Art Beyond Combat, new exhibit opens June 14 MT. PLEASANT — Three artists who served in the Vietnam War bring their individual perspectives about the war and the country itself to a new exhibition on display Friday, June 14 thru Thursday, Aug. 1, at Hub City Gallery on the second floor of Mt. Pleasant City Hall, 115 West Main Street. Works included in the exhibit, titled Vietnam Veterans: Art Beyond Combat, show images of war, images of peace, and images of healing. The three exhibit creators, Dan Maynard, Carl Purcell and John Steele all served during a time of uncertainty, protest, and devastation and each artist has a different perspective on returning to their lives and resolving feelings of unrest. Their art serves each of them in a different way and each has a different story to tell. Dan Maynard Dan Maynard only started to take his art seriously after his wife encouraged him. Although he initially focused on the people and landscapes of the Western U.S., he eventually began drawing scenes of the combat he experienced in Vietnam.
