Lt. Gov. Spencer Cox along with his wife, Abby, and children, Adam, 16, and EmmaKate, 12; made a campaign stop at the ConToy Arena in Mt. Pleasant last Saturday on his quest for the office of Governor in 2020.
MT. PLEASANT—Lt. Governor Spencer Cox made a stop in Mt. Pleasant at the ConToy Arena on his campaign trail for the office of Governor. Cox arrived with many members of his family to greet his supporters. The stop was number 187 of the 248 cities and towns in Utah that Cox has pledged to visit. Mt. Pleasant Mayor Dan Anderson welcomed Cox to the community, even though Cox was raised in nearby Fairview and graduated from North Sanpete High School. Cox went on to become a lawyer, mayor of Fairview, Sanpete County Commissioner, legislator and Lt. Governor.
Former Mt. Pleasant City Councilman Monte Bona also greeted Cox and soon came up with a service project for Cox and family to raise additional funds for his campaign. Bona called it “piling it higher and deeper”, when he led the group out to the horse barn where Bona pledged to donate $100 per wheelbarrow load of “stuff” removed from the stalls. Bona also encouraged others in attendance to match the contribution. Cox said, “We have completed 44 service projects while visiting the different areas of the state. Utah leads the nation in volunteerism and charitable contributions and my family and I are grateful for the Please see COX, Page A6
MT. PLEASANT — Due to recent city ordinance discussions it appears that a rumor has been circulating among the populace that there is a moratorium on building in Mt. Pleasant City. The existence of a moratorium is false. On July 23, a Pending Ordinance Rule was adopted relative to zoning regulations in Mt. Pleasant City and expires after six months. With the new rule being misunderstood, it has been assumed by some that all building in Mt. Pleasant is on hold for six months. Mt. Pleasant Mayor Dan Anderson and Planning Commission Chairperson Connie Roper recently asked for clarification of the rule. For instance, would the Pending Ordinance Rule allow the planning commission to take action in a duly noticed meeting to allow someone to build a home or multi-level unit if all of the prerequisites in a given zone have been met? The answer is yes, the rule is not a moratorium. It does allow the planning commission to move forward with projects on a case-by-case basis. For the record, since the rule went into effect in July, there have been four building projects approved in Mt. Pleasant.

DWR regional fishing report SALT LAKE CITY — The autumn leaves flash brilliant yellows and reds as while standing on the riverbank. The air has just a hint of coolness while casting a fishing line into the clear water. Fall fishing season has arrived. Whether owning a boat or not, anglers tend to be in the mood for spending a relaxing afternoon sitting on a bank fishing, it’s a great time in Utah to fish from the shore. Water temperatures are starting to cool down, and fish are moving from the deeper, off-shore areas where they stay during the hot summer and returning to shallow, shoreline areas. Shore fishing is more than a great option for people who don’t own a boat — it’s also really fun for beginning anglers. “Shore fishing can be a great way to catch a lot of fish,” Utah Division of Wildlife Resources (DWR) sportfish coordinator Randy Oplinger said. “The nice thing about shore fishing is that you don’t need a lot of equipment. All you need is a rod and some basic equipment like bobbers, hooks and bait. Using lures can also work great when fishing from shore. ” Shore fishing is also a great option for those who want to fish with several of their friends or family. There aren’t space restrictions like on a boat. Here are the updated fishing reports from around the area provided by Utah DWR as follows: Benches Pond Fishing is good at Benches Pond, especially early in the morning or later in the evening. The pond was recently stocked with rainbow trout averaging almost 11 inches long. Try using worms, PowerBait or spinners for catching these. Garlic PowerBait has worked especially

Last Friday night I found myself in Kamas, Utah. Many of you know that Kamas is the home of South Summit High School and isn’t too far from Park City, only 16 miles. According to my research, Kamas has a population of around 2,000 and is at an elevation of 6,486 feet above sea level. I find myself in lots of different places at different times because of, well, different circumstances. It was a result of an odd, little pastime, which I have, that put me in Kamas over the weekend. Every once in a while, I get on the Internet and look up rock and roll bands, past and present (mostly past). I like to see which bands are still together, which members of the old bands are still alive, and find out if they’re still touring. Imagine my surprise, earlier in the month, when I found that the band “Three Dog Night” had a concert date in Kamas. I thought, “What?!” I was shocked that one of my favorite bands from my youth was playing in what I supposed would be a high school “out in the sticks” of Utah. As it turned out, the concert was in a place called The DeJoria Center, a venue that I didn’t know existed. Billionaire, John Paul DeJoria, built the place, which was finished in 2016 at a cost of $14 million. It boasts a convention hall that can be set up for concerts with seating for 1,200+ people. Now, I want to dive in and get to the heart of the matter of what’s really on my mind. What motivates a person (me), to drive two-and-a-half hours to listen to a band that was at the height of its popularity in the late ‘60s and ‘70s? Here’s the short answer: memories. Most of us would agree that music has the power of bringing back vivid memories of our lives from many years ago. After my motherin-law passed away, my wife went through her mom’s collected newspaper clippings, etc. One clipping was of a poem. The clipping didn’t show the name of the poet; but I’m suspecting that it was either Ben Burroughs or James J. Metcalfe because of other similar clippings. Here it is: Music is a diary Music is a diary… Of days of long ago… The sadness and the happiness… And friends we used to know… When we are young, each song is just… Another tune to sing… But as the years go drifting by… What memories they bring!... Each melody reminds us of… A certain time and

place… And on the keyboards of our dreams… We see a special face… Yes, music is a diary… Of memories to keep… Some that we cherish while awake… And others while we sleep… Some folks consider music as… Our most important art… And they are right because it keeps… A record of the heart. It is an interesting phenomenon to hear a song on the radio and immediately be transformed to another time and place. Most people like to continue to listen to the music of their youth, for that reason, I suppose. That must be why “oldies” stations are able to thrive. As the poem says, songs remind us of happy times and sad times. Past relationships are brought back to life. Awkward moments at dances are remembered. Sometimes feelings of homesickness or “love sickness” are part of the remembrance. For me, “Three Dog Night” brings back a feeling of the world of high school and college. It was generally a happy time. But, it was also a time of staying up all night cramming for exams, worrying about the Vietnam War and the draft, wondering what the future might hold in terms of a job and relationships, etc. Every time of life is a mix of ups and downs. Life is a roller coaster. But there’s always music, which is constantly creating the soundtrack of our lives. The best part of going to the concert the other night was being able to meet up with an old friend (and when I say old, I mean old. He’s my age.). My old friend and I were band mates in a rock-and-roll band in high school. Along with another friend, we went off to college in Logan together. The last time my friend and I were together was when we met up for a “Three Dog Night” concert in Orem 11 years ago. Once again, we immediately re-bonded, laughed, reminisced and talked rock-and-roll. We didn’t skip a beat. I have a feeling that we shouldn’t wait for another concert by this same band before we see each other again. The remaining original lead singer in the band, Danny Hutton, is 77 years old. But, then again, I have to remember that Tony Bennett is 93 years old. And I see on his website that he has six concert dates scheduled for this month of October. Join me in loving and enjoying the music of your life – past and present. And as Carly Simon sang, “These are the good old days!”

Hawk JV football swats Wasps RAY LAFOLLETTE
The Pyramid
MT. PLEASANT — North Sanpete Junior Varsity (JV) Football Team took on the Juab Wasps JV team in a hard fought contest Sept. 26 which ended in a victory for the JV Hawks 14-6. Opening kick-off by the Hawks was good and Wasps took possession of the ball. On their first play, the Wasp quarterback threw a pass down field to a waiting receiver who ran the ball all the way to the goal putting the Wasps up 6-0. Shock set in as the Hawks regrouped and prepped for the Wasp extra point, but the Juab kicker missed the goal. Throughout the rest of the first and second quarters the two teams pushed hard but neither team scored. Halftime came and went along with the third quarter. Finally, with 8:47 on the clock in the fourth quarter, North Sanpete JV scored a goal, which tied the game 6-6. Then excitement rippled through the Hawk boosters as the Hawks also scored the extra point bringing the score up 7-6 in the Hawk’s favor. With 1:35 left in the game,

Shortly thereafter, a successful pass to Xander Shelley was run in for a goal and Rance Christensen kicked in the ex-
tra point putting the Hawks up 14-6. For the Wasps to now win the game they would have to make an incredible push for the goal, but with only 1:03 left, Juab
was called for having a defensive player on their return team and received a 15-yard penalty and the North Sanpete JV Hawks team won the game 14-6.

MT. PLEASANT — The Lady Hawks took on both Maesar Preparatory Academy and Juab High School at home last week were able to sweep both teams
in three sets. Maesar Prep The Lady Hawks played the Maesar Prep Lions on Tuesday and quickly took the victory. The first set was the closest with a score of 25-15 for the
Hawks. However, once North Sanpete eliminated their errors, the Lions couldn’t figure out a way to sideout against the Hawk’s defense. North Sanpete continually dug the Maeser’s offensive at-
tempts giving the Hawks repeated opportunities to score. The Hawks easily defeated Maeser during the second and third sets with scores of 25-8 for both. Senior outside hitter Sara Oldroyd lead the team in kills with 10 and sophomore libero Jada Bailey lead the team in digs with 12. Juab The Lady Hawks then hosted the Juab Wasps on Thursday where they again defeated them in a three set sweep. The scores for the match were 25-19, 25-16, and 25-16. The Hawks were again both offensive and defensive threats as they continually dug the Wasps and executed the ball. Outside hitters, senior Sarah Oldroyd and junior Melissa Ferre lead the Hawks with 10 kills each. Right side Makenzie Lewis also added 8 kills. The stars of the show were definitely the Hawk’s defensive players with libero Jada Bailey adding 14 digs to North Sanpete’s total. The Lady Hawks current record is 6-1.
NEPHI — North Sanpete Hawks faced the Juab Wasps Sept. 27 in Nephi, but were unable to secure a win. The Hawks headed to Juab with a 6-0 record and were looking forward to adding another win under their belt. However, a lack of defensive presence and inability to move down the field offensively allowed the Wasps to sting the Hawks with their first loss. The first quarter was a success for the Wasps as Juab scored two touchdowns and held the Hawks to zero. The second quarter however, was were the Wasps asserted their dominance and created a deficit too great for North Sanpete to overcome. At first, it appeared that the Hawks were going to make a comeback as they were able to score a safety and put two points on the board. The Hawks were also in a “Goal and Inches” situation, but the Wasps defense was able to hold the Hawks preventing them from crossing the line. Both teams continued to battle all quarter, until, with only seconds left in the second quarter, Juab’s Cade Bowring ran in a touch down for the Wasps bringing the score to 21-2 for Juab. The Hawks tried to hang on by gaining as much yardage as possible and were able to get the ball into field goal range. North Sanpete’s Luis Rodriguez kicked in a 36-yard field goal adding three points to the Hawk’s score, but the Wasps still lead 21-5. After the half, the Hawks
were still in a position to come back. However, the Wasps’ defense ensured that North Sanpete was unable to narrow the gap. The Hawks again found themselves in a “Goal in Inches” situation, but were again shut out by the Wasps. Before the third quarter ended, Juab was able to add one more touchdown bringing the final score to 28-5. Neither team scored any points in the fourth quarter so Juab took the victory. When asked about the game, North Sanpete Head Coach Rhett Bird said, “It was a really good test for us and was the first real test where we got down and had to fight back, it is hard to simulate those games and prepare for them.” “Juab is a good team and they got the momentum going their way early in the game,” said Bird. “A couple of key situations were definitely the two goal-line stands they had and a third-and-12 play when Juab’s quarterback found Cade Bowring in the end zone in a scramble.” According to Coach Bird, “Our next game is against Manti and they are ranked number one in the RPI ranking so it will be another big week for us. Nothing really changes are far as preparation goes. We will still watch film and go over their best plays and athletes to be ready for the game.” The Hawks will play against Manti Templars Friday, Oct. 4, at 7 p.m., at North Sanpete High School, 700 South 390 East, Mt. Pleasant.

Utah Division of Wildlife Resources (DWR) has raised the daily fish limit at Miller Flat Reservoir to 16 fish. The increased limit will be in effect until the end of the year. (Photo courtesy of Utah DWR)
Daily limit increased to 16 fish at Miller Flat Reservoir SALT LAKE CITY — The daily fish catch limit at Miller Flat Reservoir has been increased to 16 fish. The previous daily limit at the reservoir was four fish. The increased limit will remain in effect until Dec. 31. Utah Division of Wildlife Resources (DWR) Director Mike Fowlks issued the
emergency change to the 2019 Utah Fishing Guidebook because of recent damage to the reservoir’s structure, which will require the waterbody to be drained for repairs. “After the reservoir is partially drained, the water level will be low, which may lead to fish dying this winter,”
Southeastern Region Aquatics Manager Justin Hart said. “We wanted to increase the fish limit so anglers could catch and eat these fish and ensure they aren’t wasted.” All the other rules in the Utah Fishing Guidebook regarding this waterbody remain in effect. The repairs to the reservoir
will likely take place this fall so the reservoir can naturally fill with snow runoff in the spring. Miller Flat Reservoir is a 160-acre lake located in the Manti-La Sal National Forest. It is typically stocked with rainbow trout and also contains some naturally-occurring cutthroat trout.

RED CROSS From A1
Eight-year-old AJ Torres requires blood transfusions to treat complications from sickle cell disease, the most common genetic disease in the U.S. The disease is most common among people of African descent or Latino descent, like AJ, and can sometimes cause small blood vessels to become blocked. Diverse donors are important to ensuring AJ has the blood products he needs to regain his health. “Within minutes of receiving a blood transfusion, I watch his strength be restored, pain vanish and energy return. Soon he transforms back to himself – a rambunctious little boy,” said his mom, Caira Torres. “If an 8-year-old can withstand a needle, so can you.” Donors of all blood types, as well as all races and ethnicities, are needed to meet the needs of an increasingly diverse patient population. Appointments can be made by downloading the free Red Cross Blood Donor App, visiting RedCrossBlood.org, calling 1-800-RED CROSS (1-800-733-2767) or enabling the Blood Donor Skill on any Alexa Echo device.

WA welcomes students for 145th academic year MT. PLEASANT — Wasatch Academy (WA) kicked off the 2019-20 academic year just after Labor Day welcoming a student body that hails from 35 countries and 29 states. The entire week was filled with excitement as the community welcomed new and familiar faces to the campus. Orientation week festivities started with a fun all-school assembly and the friendship circle, a longstanding WA tradition. One by one, as the circle moved, future doctors, engineers, authors and maybe even future United States Presidents handed out fist bumps to school leaders and fellow students. The friendship circle is just one way the academy starts the school year off on a high note. “I think it’s a great opportunity for our community to say, ‘Hey, we are together. We are stronger together than we are apart.’ It’s a really great message for our students,” says Director of Residential Life and Dean of

This is just one way we encourage a connection.” The festivities continued with the student council hosting a field day for students to enjoy complete with a variety of bouncy castles, games, popcorn, cotton candy, warm
sunshine and lots of laughter with new and old friends. At the first all-school assembly, Head of School Joe Loftin beamed, “Our school is celebrating its 145th year. Take advantage of the support offered at WA and how we honor each individual’s growth.” “I hope each and every one of you takes pride in the fact that you are a student at Wasatch Academy,” said Loftin. “Let’s support one another, let’s move forward, and let’s make our 145th year the absolute best year in the history of Wasatch Academy”.
Old shop class now industrial fabrication at WA MT. PLEASANT — Industrial fabrication has now come to Wasatch Academy (WA) but the whole concept has been there before under the name of shop class. Walking with alumni around the WA campus, a lot about the history of the academy can be learned. Many alums remember one class in particular known as shop. Shop class was taught famously by Paul Olmstead from the 1950s up until the early 1980s. For almost 30 years, the Olmsteads, Paul and his wife Shirley, were an institution at Wasatch Academy. With the reintroduction of shop class, now titled industrial fabrication, in the John W. and Elizabeth Lee Engineering Arts Building, the long tradition of experiential learning continues today. Paul Olmstead once was the anchor of teaching shop at WA. Initially shop class took place in the Craighead Vocational Building, known later as the Administration Building and known today as the Learning Services Building. The same building that once was home to woodworking and craftsmanship classes now serves as the place where students receive academic support.

Around 1981, toward the end of shop class being offered at WA, girls were permitted in the class under the direction of Doug Gordon. After the Olmsteads left the school in 1983, the shop program faded away. Times changed and shop classes became a distant memory in Wasatch Academy’s story, but
that all changed this year when the newest building on campus, the John W. and Elizabeth Lee Engineering Arts Building, opened its doors. WA is excited to build on the tradition that Paul Olmstead started with the introduction of industrial fabrication. This new facility not only creates space for robotics and rocketry but also provides a beautiful area for hands-on fabrication. Courses offered build on many of the foundations
taught years ago in shop class and now incorporate more technology into the fabrication process. The industrial fabrication class has already begun to work on projects impacting the campus. Students are currently repurposing the stage set from a production of “Noises Off” as they use the wood to build a new stage in the Music Conservatory. The new stage is for Analog Crush, the Center of Contemporary Music’s newly formed
band. This is the first of many projects the class is embarking on to not only learn valuable skills but also to give back to the WA community. The community as a whole is excited to celebrate the Olmstead legacy by continuing the tradition of fabrication introduced many decades ago. The new industrial fabrication class is a melting pot of students from all backgrounds working with their hands to create projects that will stand the test of time.
Gov. Herbert rescinds 2018 emergency drought declaration SALT LAKE CITY– A strong water year has put an end to Utah’s severe drought conditions. As a result, Gov. Gary R. Herbert has officially rescinded the 2018 executive order that declared a statewide emergency due to drought. “What a difference a year makes. Utah experienced unprecedented drought conditions last year, which harmed the livelihood of many families and strained agricultural producers, industry and even wildlife and recreation,” said Gov. Herbert. “Even in a normal year, water in Utah is a scarce natural resource. We should appreciate what we received, but not take it for granted,” Herbert said. “Let us continue to do all we can to conserve water as communities, industries, neighborhoods and families.” 2019 precipitation has been well above normal statewide, with regional averages between 110 to 200 percent of normal, according to the Colorado Basin River Forecast Center, the agency that reports precipitation for Utah. The heavy precipitation significantly reduced drought conditions throughout Utah. According to the U.S. Drought Monitor, a collaborative group of individuals from the University of Nebraska Lincoln and federal agencies, no area of the state is currently experiencing severe drought conditions. About 15 percent of Utah, primarily areas of San Juan, Kane and Washington counties, are experiencing moderate drought. The rest of Utah is either ab-
normally dry or experiencing average conditions. When the governor declared the drought emergency, 99 percent of the state was in a moderate drought, with over 88 percent of Utah experiencing at least severe drought conditions. Herbert initially issued the emergency drought declaration last October under the recommendation of the Utah Drought Review and Reporting Committee. Drought conditions had developed to the degree that several areas throughout Utah had experienced severe impact to various sectors of their economies. The declaration allowed drought-affected communities, agriculture producers and others to begin the process of accessing state or federal resources. In addition to the governor’s declaration, The emergency drought declaration of October 2018 has been six rural Utah counties also declared rescinded due to statewide water resources received this year. emergency drought disasters, including (Graphic courtesy of Utah DNR) Box Elder, Carbon, Emery, Grand, San Juan and Wayne counties.
