Lamb Days main events July 20-21
Robert, Yvonne Hansen
Robert, Yvonne Hansen named Lamb Day grand marshals FOUNTAIN GREEN — Robert Don and Yvonne Smith Hansen will serve as grand marshals for Fountain Green’s Lamb Days parade to be held at 10 a.m., Saturday, July 21. Robert Don Hansen was born on Sept. 1, which was truly a “labor day” for his mother, Dorothy B. Johansen and father, Don Farrell Hansen. Called Bobby by his family and friends, he grew up on the farm west of Fountain Green and experienced the down-to-earth good old things that young boys in rural Utah enjoyed. He attended Fountain Green Elementary, North Sanpete Junior High in Moroni, and graduated from North Sanpete High School, Mt. Pleasant, in 1965. Almost as a rite of passage, Bob moved to Ephraim, and attended the freshman year at Snow College. As his nineteenth year approached, he was called to serve in the Southern States LDS Mission in Atlanta, GA; and served from September 1966 to 1968. He then continued education at Snow College, graduated in 1969, worked all summer for farmers in Fountain Green and transferred to Brigham Young University (BYU). That first semester, just before Christmas, he met Yvonne Smith in his BYU LDS Ward. The couple went on dates, became engaged and were married, Sept. 11, 1970, in the Mesa Arizona LDS Temple. The Hansen family made their home in Orem while continuing their schooling. On weekends they traveled to visit family in Fountain Green. Both Bob and Yvonne graduated from BYU in May 1971. Bob earned a Bachelor of Science degree in agricultural economics and Yvonne a Bachelor of Arts degree in special education and elementary education. At that time there was a freeze on government hiring in civil service jobs, but Bob found employment in Redrock, AZ; as a mill manager for a private feedlot, so the family moved to sunny, hot Arizona. Their first baby, Liesl Marie, was born that Oct. 1971, in Tucson, AZ. In November, Bob, Yvonne and Liesl moved to cold, frigid, Fountain Green, where Bob found work as the Fountain Green City Marshal. He also worked for the Moroni Feed Co. Hatchery, then found his niche in sales for Nephi Rubber Products, in Nephi. James Robert was born in April 1973 and Lea Ann in March 1975. James was diagnosed with a Wilm’s cancer tumor in 1974, was treated and died in May 1976. In 1977, Bob secured a sales job for a company based out of Los Angeles, which required him to travel throughout, Wyoming, South Dakota and Montana. So the family moved to Please see HANSEN, Page A1

Thad Turpin selected FV horse parade grand marshal FAIRVIEW — Thad Maurice Turpin has been selected as grand marshal for the Fairview Pioneer Days horse parade to be held Saturday, July 21, at 6 p.m., on State Street. Thad says he has always had a great love of horses, and anything to do with them. He always rode bareback which, he says, “taught me how to ride correctly.” He started riding at a very young age. The story is, that when Thad was age three, he came up missing from home. Apparently he had caught a horse, somehow climbed onto her, and rode the horse to his grandparent’s house, which was three miles away. After Thad graduated from high school, he hired on with a dude ranch just outside
of Yellowstone National Park, where he spent the summer working with people and horses alike. Then in the fall, it turned into a guiding and outfitting business, riding horses 50 miles, one way, just to get into the Yellowstone camp. Later on, Thad’s parents paid that boss a visit. The Yellowstone camp boss told his parents that the outfit had a lot of cowboys on the ranch, but they’ve only had one horseman, Thad. From raising, breaking, shoeing, or anything else to do with horses, Thad was always there doing it. Now, he says, “having grandkids with the same love and passion, does my heart good.”

North Bend Entertainers to present ‘Forever Plaid’ FAIRVIEW — North Bend Entertainers will present the comedy musical revue “Forever Plaid” at 7 p.m., in the Peterson Dance Hall in Fairview on July 26, 27, 28, and 30. Call (435) 469-1177 or visit Facebook.com/NorthBendEntertainers for information and times. Tickets may be purchased at the door. When four young singers are killed in a car crash, they posthumously take the stage for one final gig in this goofy, 1950s nostalgia trip. Forever Plaid is
one of the most popular and successful musicals in recent memory. This deliciously fun revue is chock-full of classics from the American Songbook, sung in jazzy, barbershop quartet harmonies! Once upon a time, there were four guys (Sparky, Smudge, Jinx and Frankie) who discovered that they shared a love for music and then got together to become their idols – The Four Freshman, The Hi-Lo’s and The Crew Cuts. Rehearsing in the basement of Smudge’s fam-
ily’s plumbing supply company, they became “Forever Plaid.” On the way to their first big gig, the “Plaids” are broadsided by a school bus and killed instantly. It is at the moment when their careers and lives end that the story of Forever Plaid begins.... The play is directed by Bryan Spencer, Mt. Pleasant, the cast of four includes Marc Anderson and Shaun Knudsen, Fountain Green, and Jason Quinn and Kelsen Spencer, Mt. Pleasant. About NBE North Bend Entertainers
(NBE) is a non-profit community theatre organization. NBE began as a result of a need to save the Fairview Dance Hall. The three-fold purpose of North Bend Entertainers is (1) to raise funds to maintain the historic Peterson Dance Hall in Fairview as a theatrical showcase and a gathering place to benefit the entire community (2) to provide a setting for local entertainers to showcase their talents (3) to provide quality entertainment at affordable prices for the community.

Pioneer Day is coming up on Tuesday, the 24th of July. It’s Utah’s own holiday. Federal offices, like the post office, will be open; but many of the rest of us take the day off. My dad’s birthday was on Pioneer Day. He liked to say that he gave his employees the day off for his birthday. He would have been 110 this year. Once again this year, I’m trying to do a little pioneer attitude adjustment as the 24th of July approaches. Little by little, I’m softening up with my attitude about the pioneers. It’s time I made peace with my forefathers. Those of you who know me, might know that I have had a bit of an ongoing struggle with a bad attitude in regards to the whole pioneer thing. I’ve let this attitude show now and then. When I do let it show, I’m often met by shocked looks and shaking heads and “Oh Merrill, you don’t mean that” sort of comments. When I say “pioneer thing,” what I mean is the ancestor worship we seem to practice in Sanpete in regards to our pioneer forerunners. In Sanpete, we don’t have the holy trinity; we have the holy “quadity:” the Father, Son, Holy Ghost and Isaac Morley. “Father Morley” led the original party of settlers who bravely first settled Sanpete in 1849. If you can trace your genealogy through one of the original Sanpete settlers, you are automatically in an upper society caste and shouldn’t mix too freely with the untouchables in lower castes. (Okay, it’s not that bad, but sometimes it feels like it.) It is all right to honor our forefathers, but I just think that we should leave the ancestor worship to other cultures. Our Sanpete brand of the Shintoism culture is regularly practiced. We have pioneer commemorations, reenactment treks, remembrance events, or some “pioneerish” thing every time we turn around. I don’t want to trivialize the trials and tribulations of the Utah pioneers, but we’ve reenacted and proxy tribulated right along with them “‘til the cows have all come home.” Okay – I guess these first few paragraphs don’t sound very penitent, do they? I just had to establish what I’m talking about. And you can see that perhaps I haven’t totally come to terms with this. But what has been helping me change my attitude, to some degree, is that I’ve been getting to know a little
more about the pioneers and their lives. The more you learn about them and their times, the more you learn that they were “people” and not a race of “near-gods.” They had problems and had to face them — just like we do. Different times, different problems – but real problems in both cases, just the same. What we choose to remember and tell about our pioneer ancestry is, understandably, the “good stuff.” That’s a natural thing. We’re obeying the command that we all got from our mothers, “If you can’t say something good about someone, don’t say anything at all.” (I’ve also heard the corrupted version of that: “If you can’t say something good about someone, come sit right down here beside me and tell me all about it.”) This concept is similar, for example, of how we collectively in America like to remember our founding fathers. For example, we fondly remember George Washington as the “father of our country.” Never mind, that he had a number of less than perfect traits – we remember and talk about his super human achievements of leading the victory in the Revolution and helping organize the Constitutional Convention — and rightly so. Really, to me, it’s heartening to know that our “larger than life” founding fathers and heroic pioneers had personal problems and were not always shining examples of perfection. It gives me hope. Learning that our pioneer ancestors were real people with imperfections, like you and me, has helped me lighten up on them. I believe that they probably said “shucks” and “dang it” (or some other phrases and words of frustration) when the wheels of their wagons and handcarts ran over their toes. So on this Pioneer Day holiday, I say let’s honor and venerate our pioneer forefathers. I’m going to do it knowing that they were human beings taking on awesome challenges and doing the best they could. And they did remarkably well. We are in the same position in many ways here and now. We are human beings with genuine challenges and we need to do the best we can. And hopefully, we’ll do remarkably well too. P.S. Don’t forget Lamb Days in Fountain Green this week, along with the upcoming Pioneer Day events around the county. Fairview, Spring City, Mayfield, Centerfield and Sterling are where the main celebrations are held.

Fire near hilltop suppressed, vehicle suspected RAY LAFOLLETTE
The Pyramid
INDIANOLA — Three fires were started on July 7, prior to 5:50 p.m., approximately one mile north of hilltop, about seven miles north of Fairview on the west side of Highway 89. All three fires were speedily suppressed, but are under investigation. However, there are no indications that the fires were intentionally set. All of the fires appear to have been ignited by the same source and it is believed they were caused by a vehicle. The fires burned sagebrush and grass on about 1.6 and 2.5 acres of land, while winds of about five to seven miles-per-hour pushed to the north. No structures were involved. Multiple fire agencies responded to the scene, including fire crews from Fairview, Indianola, Mt. Pleasant, Spring City, Wales, Moroni and two Bureau of Land Management federal engines from Little Sahara.
Several fire crews responded to and successfully suppressed three fires on July 7 near hilltop between Indianola and Fairview. It is believed the fires were caused by a vehicle. (Photo courtesy of Sanpete County Sheriff’s Office) Fairview Fire Chief Nathan Miner reported that in the past few weeks, three-of-the-four fires the department had been summoned for were started by vehicles. Miner said peo-
ple need to be aware of their vehicle conditions, especially when pulling trailers. Miner would like people to make sure their vehicles are well maintained.

He points out that when vehicle tires are not maintained with proper inflation, or replaced when worn out, the tires can blow out, which will drop the tire rim to the ground and can cause sparks that ignite a fire in dry materials such as grass. He is also concerned about vehicles that have exhaust system problems. If an exhaust system leaks, is hot, and passes over dry grass or brush it can cause a fire. In addition, most vehicles have catalytic converters as part of the exhaust system, which also gets very hot, which is also a hazard. In addition, vehicle users need to be aware that if their vehicle is parked in dry grass or brush, it could potentially cause a fire that could destroy the vehicle. Persons who cause fires can be held responsible for damages caused by the fire. Vehicle owners should take the proper maintenance steps to eliminate potential fire hazards.

Four DIY ideas for upcycling common household items (BPT) — Crafting is a wonderful way to relieve stress and express your creative side — and fortunately, you don’t have to be a master craftsman — or spend a fortune on materials — to have fun and enjoy the benefits. “A great way to get into crafting is by ‘upcycling’ — bringing new life into items you already have,” said Dinah Wulf, author and blogger of the website DIY Inspired. “Some of my favorite projects can be done with ordinary household items and just a dab of glue.” Here are four easy upcycled projects to get your creative juices flowing. A cork cell phone stand? Wine-not? Wine corks make excellent crafting material, so instead of throwing the cork away once the bottle is empty, put it to use by creating a stand for
Upcycling brings new life to common household items and can also relieve stress and bring out your creative side. your smartphone. All that you need for this cute project are 24 corks and a sturdy, quick-drying glue like DAP RapidFuse All Purpose Adhesive. Start by stacking the corks in a pyramid shape, applying just a thin layer of glue to where the corks meet. Press each bond together for 30 seconds to ensure a strong hold. Next, just add one extra row of corks at
the bottom for the phone to rest on, and repeat with the adhesive. Allow to cure for 30 minutes. In less than five minutes, you’ve created a unique resting place for your phone that keeps it handy while you work at your desk or look up recipes in the kitchen. A dazzling jewelry box for hidden treasures For an easy, budget-friendly
crafting project, Wulf recommends scouring flea markets and garage sales for old ceramic boxes. With a little dressing up, they make the perfect jewelry box for you or a young one. Start by spray-painting the box in your desired color. Once dry, embellish with rhinestones or old figurines — even old decorative salt or pepper shakers. Simply dab a bit of adhesive on the item, then press into the box for 30 seconds to seal. It’s the perfect gift for the little princess in your life. A bird feeder to tweet about One of Wulf’s favorite projects is creating an eye-catching bird feeder made from an old saucer and teacup. It’s a way to repurpose old dishes that you no longer use, while also bringing some whimsy to the backyard. Simply lay the cup on its side on top of
the saucer, and check to see where the cup and saucer touch. Next, apply the adhesive to these two areas to set and press together for 30 seconds. To keep the cup from rolling as it sets, place two small items on either side. After it cures for 30 minutes, it will be ready to fill with bird seed and hang. A marvelous mug makeover We all have that favorite mug for our morning coffee, but with heavy use, it’s easy for the handle to chip or break in two. Instead of throwing it away, apply a bit of adhesive to the exposed ends and press together for 30 seconds. Your favorite mug is as good as new! Don’t have a favorite mug? Apply word tiles or other fun accessories to a basic ceramic mug to create a one-of-a-kind treasure that you’ll look for-
ward to using each morning. Just be sure to apply adhesive only to the exterior of the mug, as many glues are not food safe, and hand wash your newly created masterpiece. Beyond crafting for fun, use your newfound crafting skills to repair other household items such as flower pots and picture frames. Your first instinct may be to trash the pieces and shop for replacements, but by repairing your items instead of replacing, you can save significant amounts of money, as well as hang on to irreplaceable heirlooms and items with sentimental value. RapidFuse All Purpose Adhesive is a cost-efficient solution, as it bonds to virtually everything, sets in 30 seconds and fully cures in 30 minutes. In less time than it takes to find a replacement, you can be enjoying your old items once again.
Good lighting, games, garlic bites make perfect outdoor party (BPT) — Whatever the occasion, take advantage of the sun and extra space outside for the perfect backyard party. Let these tips help plan and get outdoor space ready for guests. Cluster conversation spots When planning a backyard layout, think beyond the patio table, and provide more than enough seating for all. Arrange sofas and chairs into conversation clusters to keep people outside and enjoying each other’s company. It’s also smart to provide coffee tables, side tables and other spaces where people can set drinks and snacks. Don’t be afraid to borrow pieces from a friend or neighbor to make the party set complete. Add the right lighting Consider the time of day of gathering and what that means for lighting. Intense late-day sun glare is unpleasant for all, but a few strategically placed patio plants can make a dramatic difference (and make
the space feel more intimate). For the post-sundown festivities, light up the party zone with holiday lights along deck rails or zig-zagged overhead. Add a fire pit, and, if it’s chilly, an extra stash of throw blankets and jackets to have a cozy, well-lit space for those latenight talks. Keep flying invaders at bay No one likes it when uninvited guests like flying, biting insects show up. Bottles of insect repellent in a conspicuous place are a good bet on buggy nights, but keep these (and the spraying area) well away from the food. For a chemical-free alternative, set out a fan or two on a low setting to stir up enough of a breeze to keep the pests away. Get the game on For the ultimate crowd mixer and crowd pleaser, keep a few fun and easy yard games on hand. Dust off the old bocce ball set. Or, with a few simple materials from the local hard-

These professional practice assistant professors will be based in some of the communities hit hardest by the opioid crisis in Utah, including Davis, Weber, Cache, Box Elder, Salt Lake, Carbon, Emery, Tooele and Utah counties. “With Extension offices serving every county in the state, we are in a perfect position to offer programs and support for all aspects of health,” he said. “We are hopeful that through this summit, we can make a difference in the current opioid problem by providing an opportunity for interested parties to come together to learn and discuss potential solutions.” According to Carrie Durward, USU Extension nutrition specialist and summit coordinator, the summit includes keynote speakers, breakout sessions and workshops. Highlights include evidence-based best practices for opioid misuse prevention, treatment and harm reduction; programs and efforts in the state of Utah and around the country; and local networks that will provide opportunities for collaboration.

The summit is designed for anyone working in the areas of opioid misuse prevention or treatment, including social workers, first responders, public officials, medical professionals, mental health professionals, educators and researchers, advocates, family members and people in recovery. “Utah is, in many ways, an unusually healthy state,” said Sandra Sulzer, USU Extension assistant professor of health and wellness. “We have some of the lowest rates of cancer in the nation and lower-than-average tobacco and alcohol use rates. Nonetheless, opioids have been a major issue.” Sulzer said that between 2000 and 2015, the state saw a 400 percent increase in deaths resulting from the misuse and abuse of prescription drugs. From 2013-2015, Utah ranked seventh in the nation for drug overdose deaths, the majority of which were opioid related. “And some counties, such as Carbon and Emery, have rates well above that state average,” she said. “This puts them among the hardest hit in the nation.” Ken White, USU Extension

Manage water for healthier landscape, environment MELINDA MYERS
Gardening Expert
MUKWONAGO, WI — Too much, not enough, and never when it’s needed. This is a common complaint of gardeners. Keeping and using water where it falls is the first step in managing this precious resource. Planting and maintaining a healthy landscape is a good place to start. Trees, shrubs, groundcovers and other plantings improve water quality and reduce storm water runoff. The plants capture nutrients, preventing them from leaching through the soil. A dense covering of greenery and mulch helps prevent soil erosion and keeps phosphorous and other pollutants out of waterways. Incorporate native plants whenever possible. Not only are most adapted to the local growing conditions, but many have deep root systems that open pathways through the soil. These openings allow the water to penetrate the soil surface, providing moisture to plant roots on the way to recharging the groundwater. And as the old roots die they add organic matter to the soil,
increasing its ability to absorb rainwater. Adding more organic matter in the form of compost will also increase the soil’s ability to absorb water; reducing surface water runoff into the street and storm sewer. Compost also helps capture contaminates so they don’t leach into local waterways or get absorbed by plants. Capture rain falling on the roof with rain barrels to use for watering containers and ornamental plantings. Start with a call to the local municipality. Some restrict the use of these water-collecting devices, while most offer incentives and rebates for including them in the landscape. Gardeners can make a rain barrel from a food grade container or purchase one from the local garden center, retail outlet or online garden supply company. Select rain barrels suited to the landscape design. Purchase one of the more decorative barrels, turn a plain barrel into garden art with a bit of paint or mask it with a few plants. And don’t worry about mosquitoes. Just toss a do-

This naturally occurring bacteria only kills the larvae of mosquitoes, black flies and fungus gnats. It won’t harm
people, pets, fish or other wildlife. Consider adding them to areas subject to periods of standing water. One dunk provides control of a 100-square-feet surface of water for 30 days. The hole in the middle allows a user to stake the dunk in place, preventing it from being
washed away in heavy rains. It remains in place and provides control when the area is flooded again. Add beauty and prevent surface water runoff with a rain garden. These gardens are located and designed to intercept the water running off walks, drives and the lawn
before it enters the street and storm sewer. The water percolates through and is filtered by the plant roots and soil before entering the groundwater. Do a bit of research before digging in. Proper placement, soil preparation and plant selection are essential to success. Managing water where it falls is not only good for a garden, but also the environment. Gardeners will enjoy the beautiful surroundings and know they made a difference by incorporating one or more of these strategies in their landscape.

Quick DIY home improvement projects (BPT) — The words home improvement usually conjure up images of major undertakings like tiling your bathroom or kitchen or tearing down a wall, taking hours or even days to complete. The fact is there are some meaningful home improvements you can finish in under two hours. 1) Need more daylight? Have
you ever wished your home had more daylight? Maybe you want to bring light to a small place like a closet or laundry room. Or maybe you have a room with a window but still not enough light. One solution is a daylighting system from Solatube. This product can be installed in under two hours and floods the interior with
natural light. 2) Concerned about security? Installing a video doorbell takes just a few minutes and you can monitor visitors at your front door on your smartphone through an app. This is a way to add some security to your home. You can be anywhere with your phone but answer your front door and

see who’s there. They have no idea where you are, home or otherwise. 3) Dealing with poor indoor air quality? The upstairs can often be hotter than the downstairs. Air can be humid and wet. House odors from cooking, pets, etc., can hang around. A Whole House Fan is quiet (with a light white noise) and can be installed without reframing. When you open the windows with the whole house fan on, it strips out the heat from the home as well as the unwelcome smells. In summer months it keeps the house cooler and it eliminates stale air in the winter. 4) Considering a new bathroom fan? Another product that installs quickly is an upgraded bathroom fan. It comes with a variety of options such as heaters and lights. An up-
graded bathroom fan can dramatically reduce bathroom humidity and odors and run more quietly. 5) Still using outdated light bulbs? An easy home improvement project is to swap out light bulbs for LEDs. Even CFL bulbs can’t hold a candle to LED bulbs, which, while
more expensive, last up to 20 years or more. This gives you an idea of some ways to spruce up your home in under two hours. But the changes will be long-lasting! For more easy home improvement ideas, visit www. solatube.com/residential.

Wood decks can be costly to maintain them and take up considerable time too. By using a wood alternative decking, the deck will last years and is low maintenance.
DIY deck re-do: Resurface in a weekend (BPT) — Outdoor living season means backyard BBQs, yard games and relaxing with a good book or good friends. If you own a wood deck, however, it also means considerable time and money spent on seasonal maintenance and deck repairs. While wood decks are aesthetically pleasing, properly maintaining them requires regular stripping, sanding and staining. The process is labor-intensive, time-consuming, messy and costly — averaging between $540 and $1,050 each time, according to HomeAdvisor.com. Consider this: For the same time and energy you would spend maintaining and repairing those old wood boards, you could replace them with a deck made of structurally superior composite material — and never again have to worry about upkeep. As long as the structural framework of your existing deck is intact and in good condition, you are a candidate for deck resurfacing. “Resurfacing an aging or
decaying wood deck with new composite decking is a doable DIY project that can be completed over the course of a weekend or two with just a little know-how and the help of a few friends,” explains Adam Zambanini, vice-president of marketing for Trex Company. “You get a brand-new deck for a lot less money than starting from scratch — and a lot less hassle through the years.” Designed for maximum durability and minimal maintenance, wood-alternative decking is resistant to fading, staining, scratching and mold and, unlike wood, requires no sanding, staining or sealing. Just an occasional soap-andwater cleaning is all that is needed to retain a “like-new” appearance and durability for decades. Ready to resurface? Follow these simple steps to a new deck surface that you can spend less time maintaining and more time enjoying: Step 1: Examine the substructure Before removing any boards, check your deck’s foundation.
Start from the ground up by examining the footings, posts and joists. Pay close attention to the condition of the wood. Soft wood indicates rot and should be replaced before proceeding. If the existing framing and substructure are sound, you’re good to go. Tip: To help ensure your substructure lasts as long as your new composite deck boards, use a protective tape, such as TrexProtect, to shield wooden joists and beams from moisture that can lead to rot and the loosening of deck screws and fasteners. Step 2: Remove old deck boards Remove any existing railing and begin prying up the nailed decking boards, leaving the substructure and framing in place. Start from the outside and move toward the house so you have a solid, safe platform from which to work. Step 3: Level it out To ensure a level surface for the new deck boards, make sure the joists are flat and even with one another. If any joists are bowed, you may need to
plane or cut them. Step 4: Install new deck boards Begin laying out the new composite boards. Starting near the house, face screw the first board to the frame. Closely follow the instructions for spacing from the manufacturer’s installation guide. As you progress, check the spacing between the house and the deck boards to make sure they stay parallel with the house. Correct variations a little at a time over several rows to avoid large, tapered gaps. Step 5: Complete with railing Measure for each post location, and cut placement holes with a jigsaw. Then, drop the posts into the holes and bolt them securely. Slide sleeves over the posts and assemble railing and balusters per the installation guide. Finish off by adding your choice of decorative elements, such as post caps and top rail caps.
