THAN FIREWORKS TO OGDEN

Fireworks are a national tradition done every Fourth of July to celebrate the United States’ independence from Great Britain.

By HEATHER WRIGHT & JOSHUA MUIR Reporters

Many American families have long-held traditions such as having a backyard barbecue for the Fourth of July while others go out with friends for drinks and find a nice view to watch the fireworks. However, for those still looking for ways to make the holiday more exciting, Ogden has a few activities to spice up the day.

Riverdale’s celebration will begin with Old Glory Days, which begins on July 3 with a movie in the park. The movie, “Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse,” will start at 9:30 p.m. in Riverdale Park. Ice cream will be served an hour earlier, at 8:30 p.m.

The event is free to attend.

On July 4, the day begins at 6 a.m. with a flag ceremony at the Riverdale Park amphitheater. At 7:30 a.m., there will be a breakfast and 5K. Children can participate in the Kids Mile starting at 8 a.m.

The Old Glory Days Parade will start its route at 9:30 a.m. Floats will feature local businesses, schools and law enforcement, celebrating the local community.

The parade route begins on 700 W. at

4250 S. running south to 4400 S., then west along 4400 S. to Parker Drive and then north to Riverdale Park.

After the parade, attendees can head to Riverdale Park for a day of festivities. A Play Zone will be set up for children to enjoy from 10 a.m. to 1 p.m. Nebo Road and Hearts of Steele will be performing at the amphitheater from 11 a.m. to 2:30 p.m.

To end the day of activities, Old Glory Days fireworks will begin at approximately 10 p.m.

Cherry Days in North Ogden will also be holding their own Independence Day festivities. North Ogden Cherry Days has been going on for over 80 years and is one of the largest Fourth of July celebrations in Northern Utah.

The celebration actually begins one day early at the Ron Brown Memorial Cherry Days Rodeo on July 3. Held at the North Ogden Equestrian Park, the event begins at 6 p.m.

Anyone planning on attending any of the Fourth of July events should be aware that between 6 a.m. to 4 p.m., the road between 2750 N. and 2650 N. in North Ogden will be closed.

On the day of the nation’s independence, events kick off bright and early at

the Sunrise Patriotic Ceremony in North Ogden Park at 6:30 a.m., with a flag ceremony put on by a local Boy Scouts troop, a speech and the national anthem.

After the sunrise ceremony, patriots can grab some breakfast, also at North Ogden Park. From 7 a.m. to 10 a.m. will be the Kiwanis Breakfast. The price for this event will be $6 for adults and $4 for children.

For those more athletically-minded, a 5K Fun Run/Walk also starts at 7 a.m. Registration for this event will be $20 if you register July 2nd. If you wait until July 4th, the price is $30.

In addition to the regular Cherry Days Parade, which begins at 10 a.m. and proceeds along Washington Boulevard, there is a Children’s Parade where kids can decorate their bicycles, tricycles, wagons and scooters in patriotic colors.

Parents can drop their kids off at the 7-11 parking lot on Washington Boulevard at 8 a.m. This event starts at 9:30 a.m.

Parents are encouraged to pick up their kids in the Intermountain North Ogden Clinic parking lot.

Also beginning at 10 a.m. and continuing until 2 p.m. is the Kiwanis Car Show next to North Ogden Park After the parade there will be activities

in the park until 3 p.m. There will be food, crafts, games, jewelry and music.

From 12 p.m. to 4:30 p.m. at North Ogden Park there will be a Volleyball Tournament. At this same park, there will be a Comedy Hypnotist show from 1:30 to 2:30 p.m.

If all of that isn’t enough, the Festival in the Park takes place from 11 a.m. to 3 p.m., where there will be booths, vendors, food and games.

If patriots still want more activities, they can head over to Barker Park at 8 p.m. for an evening concert by Peter Breinholt.

To cap it all off, for the grand finale, Fireworks West will host the fireworks event at 10 p.m. at Barker Park. 92.1 F.M. radio will play patriotic music during the event.

There’s no shortage of activities in Ogden for those looking for a new Independence Day tradition to start with their families or something to fill the day while they wait for fireworks.

GREAT WALL NO MATCH

FOR WSU GREAT

By BRANDON MAY Reporter

Three months after the Weber State University men’s basketball season came to an end, alumni Zach Braxton took his talents to China and competed in three different International Tournaments.

The Highland Ranch, Colorado native traveled to China, toured through four different cities and competed against the China’s 22-and-under National Team, Po-

land’s 22-and-under National Team and a Lithuanian professional team.

Braxton is hoping that the experience gets his name out in the basketball world and allows him to join former Wildcat athletes Ryan Richardson, Davion Berry, Jeremy Senglin and Joel Bolomboy in playing professionally overseas.

“I’m hoping it gives me a chance to play in China someday,” Braxton said. “It was really cool to play a different style of basketball. It’s a lot more physical, which fits my game, and it was really cool to see the

level of talent in other countries.”

Braxton played on a team compiled of other Americans who just graduated from college. A few of them have been playing professionally for the past few years.

While competing, Braxton was able to take in the sights of a foreign country and the packed arenas each night.

“Seeing different parts of China was really special,” Braxton said. “I got to experience what life was like outside of the U.S. for the first time.”

Braxton continued that he had never

really been out of the country and that the overall experience was incredible, but there were some aspects that were wholly different.

“The internet and such is weird there,” Braxton said. “They control a ton of stuff and censor everything. You can’t get on most websites unless you use a VPN (Virtual Private Network) service.”

GEAR UP HELPS PARENTS SUPPORT TEENS

By LEAH HIGGINBOTAM Reporter

Weber State University hosted a GEAR UP retreat on June 29 at their Davis campus — but not for students. Parents involved in the GEAR UP program attended a day with sessions on how to help their students become college ready.

GEAR UP is an organization that helps underrepresented adolescents become college ready across the nation.

According to GEAR UP director Brandon Kaleo Flores, the program is a federally-funded grant program aimed at helping students get to college and succeed there.

“The purpose is to serve students who come from under-served, under-represented or underprivileged backgrounds," Flores said. "The goal is to help these students continue to succeed in school and to learn how to navigate the system of higher education."

The June 29 retreat included workshops taught in both English and Spanish by Weber State professors. The program also provided breakfast and lunch for attendees with a break where the parents had the opportunity to take a campus tour and their choice of either a massage or a painting class.

The parent retreat is one of many community events that GEAR UP puts on throughout the year. The program also helps with recruitment for colleges, puts on career fairs and organizes family nights, all with the intent to encourage teens to seek higher education.

“We work with students from junior high throughout high school and even into their first year of college," Flores said. "I run my program on a foundation of three things: to build a college-going culture at the school, in the community and, most importantly, at home.”

The purpose of the parent retreat, he said, is to provide parents with more resources to help their kids.

"Contrary to what some people think about parents, the truth is parents do care about their kids," Flores said.

Assistant professor of Child and Family Studies Keith V. Osai taught a workshop on adolescent development at the retreat.

“My hope is that by attending something like this it benefits parents by empowering them with knowledge," Osai said. "To help parents to understand what their children are experiencing on different levels."

Being a teenager in the modern era isn’t easy, according to Osai, and he hopes that helping parents gain the

tools to understand their teens will empower them to help their kids succeed.

Local parent Nicole Dennis appreciates the impact GEAR UP and this retreat has on the community.

“I think it’s a great program. If you see GEAR UP signs, you know that they’re supporting the youth in our community to better themselves and to excel beyond what they might think they can do,” Dennis said.

Teens everywhere, not just in Utah, experience a lack of support. Although this chapter of GEAR UP serves Weber and Davis Counties, GEAR UP goes far beyond just Utah. By providing support for teens nationwide, GEAR UP is helping build "college-going" communities across the country.

“What we do in GEAR UP isn’t just a program, it’s a movement. GEAR UP is nationwide," Flores said. "All over America, in almost every state, there is a movement going on where students and parents alike are coming together and saying ‘even though this system might not have been built for us, we too want to take a piece of that American dream and live it, and fulfill our potential.’”

DRAKE SIGNS WITH

The Signpost Archives

SPAIN’S TIER 2 LEAGUE

By BRANDON MAY Section Editor

After competing for four years at Weber State University, Emily Drake will continue her basketball career with the Ausarta Barakaldo in Barakaldo, Spain.

“I answered the text that a team was interested at 1 a.m. because of the time difference,” Drake said. “I was so excited to share it with my family when they woke up.”

The Pullman, Washington, native explained it’s a long process that starts the moment you run out of eligibility at the collegiate level.

“You find an agent or agency, and they get in contact with teams that need players,” Drake said. “They use your highlight film and your basketball resume to market you, and if teams are interested, a contract is drawn up.”

Drake also participated in the Eurobasket-

ball Summer League earlier this summer in Tamp Bay, which helped get her name out to professional teams in Europe.

Barakaldo competes in the Liga Femenina 2 de Baloncesto (Women’s Basketball League 2), but each year the champion and runner up promote to the top tier Liga Femenina.

“I have talked with the coach and some girls that have played in the past over there, and they had a great experience,” Drake said. “The situation is great, and I thought it was going to be a good fit.”

Drake finished her career at Weber State playing in 129 games and averaging 11.2 points per game. She currently sits in the top ten for three point field goals made and three point field goals attempted, while recording 1,444 points and 227 assists.

Niche pop-up art experiences have attracted young, social media-driven people around the world recently. Art installations dedicated to ice cream, candy, selfies and death have surfaced, giving people non-traditional backgrounds to pose with.

Salt Lake City saw one of its first interactive pop-up art museums last summer with the Hall of Breakfast. Featuring 10 breakfast-inspired rooms, guests captured their experiences and shared on Instagram.

After the Hall of Breakfast’s departure from The Gateway, Dreamscapes opened its doors in March. Dreamscapes is a 14,000 square foot space filled with immersive physical and digital art aimed to take guests on an “ethereal journey.”

The idea of Dreamscapes is to enter a

“dreamy” world, according to Derek Dyer, executive director of the Utah Arts Alliance.

“Our culture has changed; there’s kind of this experience economy right now.

People are kind of a little bit more interested in having experiences than accumulating material possessions,” Dyer said.

These pop-up experiences change the way people are consuming art. While installations often have consumers participate with the art, art in museums tends to stay in a frame and isolated from people.

The installations’ main purpose is to look good in person but also in photo.

Dreamscapes’ installations — backdrops — include a cloud room, a word room and a ball pit. People pose by the art, created by over 50 Utah artists and builders, and upload the experience online.

Social media has been one of the biggest ways Dreamscapes has received their marketing. Dyer said they have spent under $500 to market Dreamscapes, but they

have had 35,000 people show up.

“The exhibit is open until people stop “When you take a picture of yourself at coming,” Dyer said. something like Dreamscapes, you’re kind of saying ‘I am the kind of person that likes Comment on this story at to have fun. Not everyone has done somesignpost.mywebermedia.com thing like this, but I am doing this, so check it out,’” Dyer said.

Dreamscapes was intended to be temporary. However, with over 35,000 tickets sold since its arrival, Dreamscapes will be opened indefinitely, according to Dyer.

Dyer hopes to do an entire rebuild in the space or move to a new building and do a more permanent install in the future.

Recently opening within walking distance of Dreamscapes, Love Letters Museum is a tribute to typography and an opportunity for more Instagram material.

With Instagram being one of the main social media platforms and its content almost exclusively being photos, it seems SHANNON VALVERDE VARGAS | The Signpost pop-ups like Dreamscapes will not being Dreamscapes’ interactive installagoing away anytime soon. tions are not just for people.

TEDX OGDEN FEATURES WASATCH FRONT SPEAKERS

By JENNIFER GREENLEE Section Editor

TEDx Ogden began at 7 p.m on June 29 for a full house at Peery’s Egyptian Theater.

In fact, the theater had to open a previously-cordoned-off section of seating just five minutes into the conference to accommodate the flood of people who entered.

The 2019 TEDx Ogden conference was themed “crossroads.” The featured speakers discussed influential moments in their lives and how the moments have continued to shape their lives and their careers. The featured speakers were exclusively from the Wasatch front, with a few from Ogden, Utah.

The 13th president of the LDS Business College, Bruce Kusch, opened the third annual conference.

“What if students decided what they would learn and there was no syllabus?”

Kusch said.

While he noted that it sounded like a radical idea, Kusch has been working on implementing that into several of the classes taught at the LDS Business College.

This method of teaching has been called “Subject Matter immersion.” Instead of having a defined syllabus, students are given the opportunity to dive right into their subject of study.

Following Kusch’s talk on curriculum changes, Lin Huang, the program coordinator at Clever Octopus, advocated for recycling less.

Huang has begun advocating for less recycling and more creative reuse.

“We all know the three R’s,” Huang said.

“Reduce, reuse, recycle. We need to reuse more.”

Clever Octopus is the only creative reuse center in Utah. They host summer art classes

and weekly classes. The organization reuses fabric scraps, clean plastic scraps and other recyclable items that would otherwise be thrown away in order to inspire creativity and to foster environmental awareness.

Huang was followed by a three-part performance. A DJ, a rapper and an artist — which, admittedly, sounds like the setup of a good joke — followed Huang in a stunning performance. While DJ Chassis used train music to accent the theme of “crossroads,” artist Lindsey Huss began painting a black background.

As Huss continued to paint, rapper, August “Awegust” Akada, came on stage and performed live.

Dr. Brad Mortensen followed the performers and spoke about the power of caring.

Mortensen grew up on a farm, where his father showed him the power kindness could have by the way he cared for their cattle.

Since seeing that, Mortensen has applied that to his own life. As president of Weber State University, he brings it to work to give back to his students.

Julie de Azevedo Hanks spoke on the idealization of motherhood. For Azevedo Hanks, she was raised in the Church of Jesus of Latter-Day Saints and told that motherhood was to be her priority.

However, the ideal didn’t line up with her own dream. She wanted to be a “singer/ songwriter and go to college to study psychology.”

As a teenager, she found herself struggling with depression and an eating disorder. She went to therapy and tried to decide what she wanted.

Instead of stopping her aspirations, she went to school, wrote books and had kids.

“Refuse to choose. Idealizing and valuing are not the same thing,” Azevedo Hanks

said. “Motherhood should not be put on a pedestal. We must value women as human beings first.”

After Azevedo Hanks left the stage, Kennedy Conroy spoke. Conroy is the youngest speaker to ever grace the TEDx Ogden stage.

Conroy has struggled with her peers seeing her as intimidating because of her high goals.

“I’m constantly being told that I reach too far,” Conroy said.

Conroy interviewed two leaders in her community. She spoke about being an independent woman and the four main pillars to a “stubborn girl’s temple.”

Amy Wilde spoke on the powerful significance of one. Wilde was born with a bilateral cleft palate. It affected her eating, hearing and communicating.

“Tonight, I take such personal accomplishment in standing here,” Wilde said. “When I

was little, the words in my head never made it out of my lips.”

Wilde spoke about the power of having a best friend and sister willing to stand up for her despite the pain of bullying she experienced throughout her school years.

Following Wilde, the Electric Dance Company performed on the TEDx Ogden stage.

Their routine was about family, fears and love.

Joseph Grenny followed the dance routine and spoke about his experience working with The Other Side Academy. This was a school for those facing incarceration to reinvent themselves over a period of at least two years instead of going back to prison.

“Truth is the work. Love is the motive,” Grenny said. “Connection is the award.”

The school provides real work through a moving company and a thrift boutique, along with cooking meals and working on

the yard for the school.

Their business ventures quickly took off, leading to an invite to the Young Entrepreneurship awards. They ended up winning the Social Entrepreneur award.

The final speaker was Marc Nelson, a Weber State adjunct professor. He gave an educational talk on Epicureanism.

A man ahead of his time, Epicurus founded Epicureanism philosophy and invited all to study at his school. He advocated for those to find serenity. One of his philosophies was to live with enough money to be comfortable but not to make so much money that it causes stress.

TEDx Ogden operates completely on a volunteer basis. The project manager, Amir Jackson, began as a speaker the first year the TEDx Ogden was held.

“The greatest power a leader has is not hoarding it for themselves, but sharing

that power for others to grow and evolve,” Jackson said.

At the end of the event, Jackson announced the next TEDx Ogden Project Manager would be Sydney Furton.

WILDCAT OFF TO ORACLE MASTERS TOURNAMENT

By IAN SYME Reporter

Weber State junior tennis player Kris van Wyk will represent the Big Sky Conference at the upcoming Oracle InterCollegiate Tennis Association Masters Tournament.

The tournament consists of 32 participants competing, which will take place from September 26-29 at the Malibu Racquet Club in Malibu, California.

WSU head tennis coach Brad Ferreira said that Van Wyk’s selection marks the first time a Wildcat tennis player has been chosen for the event.

Van Wyk expressed both surprise and excitement regarding being able to attend the tournament despite an average showing last year, calling the invite “a great reason to train and to motivate (myself).”

The event was created in 2015, according to ITATennis.com, and “has established itself as one of the premier events of the collegiate tennis season.” Each Division I conference sends one player to the tournament to compete.

Van Wyk anticipates playing several opponents who are ranked nationally.

Ferreira said that although van Wyk finished as the Big Sky Conference’s second-ranked player in the Universal Tennis Rating system, he received the nomination due to the conference’s number-one ranked player graduating this past spring.

“Every time somebody plays a match against someone else, the system looks at their rating and the person they played against, how close the match was and adjusts their rating according to the result of

the match,” Ferreira said.

Ferreira said that even if the athlete loses, sometimes the player’s rating can still move up.

Van Wyk recently competed in two tournaments in British Columbia, winning the men’s open doubles event with his partner at the Richmond Open and finishing second in the men’s open singles at the Delta Open.

Van Wyk plans to compete in the upcoming Seattle Open and Washington State Open tournaments later this summer. “You can train a lot, and you’re going to improve a lot, but match play is really important in tennis,” Van Wyk said.

Van Wyk keeps a rigorous daily practice schedule to prepare for the tournaments.

His routine includes doing physical exercise for one to two hours, playing tennis for two to three hours and another two to three hours of serving practice.

“Kris has improved quite a lot since he’s been here. His serve has gotten really good.

His work ethic has been amazing,” Ferreira said. “He’s totally deserved this because of how hard he’s worked and how well he’s been playing.”

During his sophomore season, Van Wyk led the Wildcats with 23 total wins and recorded a 13-6 singles match record, second-best on the team. He was also named as Big Sky Player of the Week for the week of February 13. In 2017, Van Wyk received the Big Sky Freshman of the Year honor.
