Chamber sponsoring program ‘Play Unplugged’ As a chamber of commerce, we have a deep passion for helping businesses find success and consider it a civic duty to promote shopping local whenever we can. As president of the chamber, I am always looking for new and innovative programs that will advance these ideals. One of the best ways that I can add value to local business owners is by providing a reason for residents to visit and shop at local businesses. I am confident that we have found a new program that will accomplish this goal. This summer, the Lehi Area Chamber of Commerce is issuing a challenge to area youth: unplug from television, video games and cell phones and instead fly a kite, learn to fish or enjoy a picnic. The chamber is sponsoring Play Unplugged, a program that encourages youth to put down their electronic devices and instead explore a wide variety of outdoor and family-oriented activities. The program will be offered from the end of May until Labor Day. Through the Play Unplugged program, local businesses and organizations will sponsor activities such as going hiking, visiting a museum, reading a book or making a fort. After youth complete a Play Unplugged activity, they then visit the business sponsoring that activity and receive a Play Unplugged Brag Badge showing they completed the activity. As youth collect the badges, they can be attached to the special Play

Unplugged Lanyards (sponsored by Intermountain Health Care) so participants can keep track of their progress and brag about it to others. Lanyards were sent home with Lehi elementary school students near the end of the school year. If you need a lanyard, visit the chamber office at 235 E. State, Lehi, Monday, Wednesday or Friday between Mark Welcker 9:30 a.m. and 1 p.m. The program will conclude with a party at the end of the summer sponsored by Lehi City for all participants with a variety of fun activities. Prizes will be awarded to kids who earned the most points through collecting badges. More information about the Play Unplugged program can be found at www.weplayunplugged. com.

The chamber is currently seeking businesses willing to sponsor Play Unplugged activities. To sign up, contact the Lehi Area Chamber of Commerce by calling 801-836-0836 or 801901-6664 or by sending an email to lehichamber@gmail.com. A list of the available activities can be seen by going to www. weplayunplugged.com, clicking on “Sponsor a Badge” and then clicking on the “Lehi, UT Area” button. Businesses do not have to be a chamber member to participate. The “Play Unplugged Lehi” program will provide larger corporations an opportunity to support a community program that encourages kids to live healthy and be active during the summer. The program also provides an amazing marketing vehicle for retail and service businesses by driving foot traffic right through the front door (kids with parents in tow). We are excited to team up with Lehi City and bring this program to Lehi. It will be an amazing experience to help the local business community, the school district and the city come together and provide an amazing experience for families in our area. The Spanish Fork/Salem Area Chamber of Commerce was the first in Utah County try out the Play Unplugged program last year and proved how amazing the Play Unplugged program can be for the entire community. Thousands of local kids participated, which meant thousands of parents visited local businesses throughout the summer months. Local foot traf-

fic skyrocketed and business owners couldn’t have been more pleased with this program. They are all excited to participate again with Play Unplugged 2015. I am excited for Lehi business owners and residents to experience these same benefits. Businesses that want to get involved with “Play Unplugged Lehi” should contact me, Mark Welcker, at 801-836-0836 or send an e-mail to Sasha Stanley at officeadmin@lehiareachamber.com.

Mayor’s Message Lehi is a vibrant, family-oriented community rich in history and new opportunities. With a population that has more than quadrupled since 1990, Lehi is one of Utah’s fastest-growing communities. Families and businesses alike are finding that Lehi, with its strategic location halfway between Salt Lake City and Provo, is the perfect place to locate. Lehi boasts beautiful views of the Wasatch Front and Utah Lake, fantastic community services and amenities, and emerging technology and business sectors. Over the past few years, Lehi’s growth has accelerated rapidly. Perhaps the most conspicuous example of this growth is the beautiful new Adobe building located adjacent to Traverse Mountain at the northern end of the city. New, high-paying jobs have been created by the Adobe expansion and companies like IM Flash, Xactware and Microsoft have all chosen to relocate or expand to Lehi. On the retail side, Lehi is home to Cabela’s, the Outlets at Traverse Mountain (featuring stores like Nike, Banana Republic, J. Crew and many more) and a wide selection of restaurants. Despite its astounding growth, Lehi is committed to remaining a friendly, family-oriented community. Lehi City provides many leisure service activities and events designed to bring people together and encourage an active, healthy quality of life. Some of these services include the Legacy Center (a full-

service recreation center featuring indoor and outdoor pools, quality exercise equipment, basketball courts and an indoor track), a library with excellent selections, the Rippy Literacy Center and the Hutchings Museum. Lehi is also home to one of the greatest celebrations in the state, the Lehi Round-Up, which includes a rodeo, parades, and family activities. With all that Lehi has to offer, it is no wonLehi Mayor der that the city is seeing Bert Wilson such tremendous growth. Whether you are a business or a resident, Lehi has what you are looking for. Lehi is truly “Pioneering Utah’s Future.”

Originally settled by Mormon pioneers, Lehi has been known as Sulphur Springs, Snow’s Springs, Dry Creek and Evansville. It was incorporated as Lehi City in 1852. The Overland Stagecoach Route, the Pony Express Trail and the Transcontinental Telegraph all passed through or near Lehi during the peak of their use. Today, according to the U.S. Census Bureau, Lehi is the fifth fastest-growing city in the country. The city has more than doubled in size since 2000, with population estimates approaching 55,000 residents. Lehi is quickly becoming a premier technology and commercial center along the Wasatch Front. Several landmark companies call Lehi home including Adobe, I.M. Flash, Xactware, Microsoft, Vivint and Xango. Lehi is also home to a wide variety of retail stores and restaurants. Thanksgiving Point, a unique destination offering museums, botanical gardens, shopping, restaurants, and other entertainment options, highlights all that Lehi has to offer. Lehi is a beautiful place to live and work. Utah Lake is located just to the south, with the picturesque Jordan River running through the city. Lehi is surrounded by the Wasatch Mountains on the east and the White Mountains and Oquirrh Mountains on the west. Lehi’s beautiful natural surroundings provide easy access to hiking, mountain biking, fishing, camping, skiing, hunting and many other outdoor activities. Lehi operates under a six-member council form of government. Policy making and legislative authority are vested in a governing council consisting of the mayor and five city council members, each elected at large to serve four-year, staggered terms. The governing council is responsible, among other things, for passing ordinances, adopting the budget, appointing committees and hiring the city’s administrator, recorder, and treasurer. The city’s administrator is responsible for working with the mayor to carry out the policies and ordinances of the governing council, overseeing the day-to-day operations of the government and appointing heads of the city’s operational departments. The city provides a full range of services including police and fire protection, construction and maintenance of roads, parks, commercial and residential building inspection, recreational opportunities (including a recreation center, indoor pool, and outdoor pool) and many cultural events. The city also owns and operates a culinary water system, a secondary water system, a wastewater system, a storm water system, an electrical distribution system, solid waste collection and an emergency medical service. Indeed, Lehi City is pioneering Utah’s future!

Business Core a resource to all Lehi businesses Main Street is the heart of Lehi, and local businesses are coming together to encourage and promote business there and throughout the Lehi community. In the fall of 2011, Main Street businesses became aware of plans to reconstruct Main Street and had concerns about the closure of the street and how it would affect business. In order to communicate more effectively with the city administration about the project, the businesses form the Lehi Business Core organization. However, even after construction on Main Street was completed, the group remained in place to continue to promote local businesses. Today, while still an advocate for the Main Street area, the Lehi Business Core has expanded its mission to being a resource and support for businesses throughout Lehi City. The Lehi Business Core is sponsored by the Lehi Area Chamber of Commerce. “As a business owner on Main Street, I know that the more traffic, the more attention we can bring to Main Street, the better business I’ll do,” said Dave Jones, chairman of the Lehi Business Core and owner of Batteries + Bulbs in Lehi. “I think we as business owners can get together and brainstorm and come up with our own ideas on how to bring attention to our businesses and also solve common problems.” The Lehi Business Core currently organizes two events per

year to promote local businesses: Halloween on Main and a spring event. For the Halloween event, businesses located on and off Main Street set up booths on Main Street where children in costume can pick up treats. Hundreds of children attended Halloween on Main last year. The spring event has been centered on Easter in the past, but Jones said his organization is planning to have it at a different time in the spring next year because many people are out of town on Easter weekend. The vision for the event is to have businesses come out of their shops onto Main Street and offer activities and games for all ages, he said. “It’s just a great chance for the businesses to thank the community for their patronage as well as draw attention to the businesses and how much the business core of Lehi has to offer,” Jones said of these downtown events. “It’s also a good opportunity to show the diversity of the businesses we have in our area.” While the Lehi Business Core is sponsored by the chamber of commerce, businesses don’t have to be a member of the chamber to join. There is no fee to join and all businesses in Lehi, even those not located on Main Street, are welcome. For more information about the Lehi Business Core or to join, call the chamber at 801-901-6664.

Saratoga Springs Mayor Jim Miller

Saratoga Springs: Utah’s second fastest-growing city The City of Saratoga Springs saw 35.1 percent growth in population from 2010-2014 to be named the second fastestgrowing city in Utah during that time frame. Approximately 24,000 people call Saratoga Springs home and as a region, the northern Utah County area continues to experience rapid development and growth. With the Pioneer Crossing extension completed and the new Market Street and Riverside Drive under construction, Saratoga Springs expects to see additional commercial and retail uses enter the City Center District in the near future. Also, the first housing development, Legacy Farms, has begun construction in the City Center District. The Saratoga Springs City Center District, which includes more than 2,800 acres and contains the terminus and future extension of the Mountain View Corridor freeway, is the intersection of several major arterial roadways and the regional epicenter of Saratoga Springs, Eagle Moun-

tain and western Lehi. The city anticipates the City Center District will include an urban center, regional retail, transitoriented development, a town neighborhood, a business park, an office warehouse, neighborhood commercial, a traditional neighborhood, a master-planned subdivision and resort and hospitality uses. The city is also planning for neighborhood commercial, resort and hospitality uses, traditional neighborhoods, business parks, low- and medium-density residential, neighborhood and regional parks, schools and large research and development properties. Saratoga Springs is expected to have over 100,000 residents at build out. With so much continued growth, the city is taking advantage of the great opportunity to work with residents, land owners and developers to proactively plan for the future needs of our residents.

Life’s just better here… Besides the stunning views and central location, the City of Saratoga Springs provides many leisure and recreational opportunities. The city continues to plan for the future by requiring property for parks, open spaces and trails to be set aside as a part of its standard development requirements. The city is excited to begin construction on Shay Park in 2015. This 12.3-acre park will be built in multiple phases and feature multiple playing fields, playground amenities and a pavilion with picnic tables among other features. Easy access to Utah Lake is available via the Pelican Bay Marina and Marina Park, an eight-acre park that allows residents and visitors to enjoy fishing, boating, swimming, walkways, open grass areas, fire pits and barbecue grills among other amenities. Marina Park also offers the use of multiple pavilions, park tables, restrooms, outside showers and a fish cleaning station. Residents enjoy running, biking and walking on over seven miles of trails, along with easy access to the Jordan River Trail, all while enjoying the city’s scenic views. Future planned trails will provide easy access between neighborhoods and commercial areas throughout the city and tie into regionally planned trails, providing residents easier access to even more recreational opportunities. Also, the Saratoga Springs Library and the Civic Events Committee offer many activities throughout the year while being mainly run by volunteers, including the Saratoga Splash Days, Science Nights, Reading Programs, Art Programs and much more. The city’s Neptune Park, one of 19 city-owned parks, continues to be a regional attraction for northwest Utah County with its distinctive playground featuring a 30-foot climbing pyramid. The park is a gathering place for families and neighbors daily and hosts numerous events and activities throughout the year, including the annual Saratoga Splash Days celebration. Neptune Park also offers soccer fields, basketball courts, a pavilion with picnic tables and a stage for the arts.

Business alliance helps create relationships Business is about relationships, and the Saratoga Springs Business Alliance helps local business owners and employees create those relationships. Formed in March of 2012, the SSBA was the result of local entrepreneur Neil Bryce’s desire to make connections with local businesses while he started an online TV station. He was exploring the possibility of starting a chamber of commerce in Saratoga Springs when the Lehi Area Chamber of Commerce offered to allow his organization to operate under its umbrella. After running the alliance with a small committee for several years, Bryce handed off leadership of the organization at the beginning of 2015 to Ryan Blohm, owner of the State Farm Insurance office in Saratoga Springs and an active SSBA member. The organization has grown since its beginning and will now operate in a fashion similar to the Lehi chamber, with a new chairperson being named each year. The SSBA focuses on three areas: networking, advocacy and education. The alliance provides opportunities for businesses to interact and acts as a voice for businesses on city issues. On the fourth Tuesday of each month, the alliance holds a luncheon with speakers addressing topics that can help people with their businesses. Cost to attend the luncheon is $10 for Lehi chamber members and $13 for nonmembers and

everyone - not just alliance members - is welcome to attend. The meetings provide chances to hear from experts about various business-related topics, but they also give SSBA members a chance to network with each other. “I think that it’s helpful for businesses owners to get together and rub shoulders and talk about ways that the business community can improve, especially on a local level,” Blohm said. Once a year, the alliance has a city representative speak to the group about issues and projects that may affect businesses, and some meetings are held without guest speakers so members can spend the time in discussion with each other. The SSBA’s major event during the year is sponsoring bounce houses during Saratoga Splash Days. To join the SSBA, one simply needs to join the Lehi Area Chamber of Commerce. If the business is located in Saratoga Springs, membership in the SSBA comes automatically with Lehi chamber membership, and those who join can then enjoy all the benefits of being part of the Lehi chamber as well. Those interested in joining the Lehi Area Chamber of Commerce and the SSBA can visit www.lehichamber.org or send an email to lehichamber@gmail.com. For specific information about the Saratoga Springs Business Alliance, contact Ryan Blohm at 801-836-0387.

City boasts safe neighborhoods, active lifestyle Eagle Mountain City is a master-planned community that captures a neighborhood feel in the midst of Utah’s urban corridor. The city sits just 40 miles southwest of Salt Lake City and 30 miles northwest of Provo at the western base of the Lake Mountains. The historic Pony Express Trail runs through the city. Since its incorporation in December of 1996, the city’s population has grown from 250 residents to more than 25,000, becoming one of the fastest-growing communities in the state. We are the third-largest city geographically in Utah at 48.75 square miles. Eagle Mountain residents enjoy quiet, safe neighbor-

More than 30 miles of trails are available for running, walking, biking, hiking, horseback riding and riding off-highway vehicles while you enjoy views of the Lake Mountains and Utah Lake. There are dozens of neighborhood and City parks, including Mountain Ranch Bike Park which spans 30 acres and includes three jump lines, a slope style track, a single track, a skills area with 200 yards of wood features, a teeter-totter, a pump track, a beginner trail and an uphill trail.

The City offers a variety of sports programs for youth including Jr. Jazz basketball, baseball, flag football and soccer. Adult programs include co-ed softball, men’s basketball, and men’s and women’s volleyball. You can also improve your handicap with help from the pros at The Ranches Golf Club.

The city has four regional parks and about 35 neighborhood parks. These parks include the Mountain Ranch Bike Park, the first of its kind on the Wasatch Front. This park spans 30 acres and features three jump lines, a slope style track, a single track, a skills area with 200 yards of wood features, a teeter-totter, a pump track, a beginner trail and an uphill trail. There is also a skate park and a splash pad in the city. We invite you to “Find yourself in Eagle Mountain.”

Micro-homes can offer many advantages In difﬁcult economic times, many people see home ownership as out of reach. Fortunately, there are many options to consider. This includes the new trend of “micro-homes”, such as those constructed by Life Starter Homes, a company based in Provo, Utah. Micro-homes have many advantages. They offer excellent pricing per square foot, low monthly payments, the option to expand and customize the home easily, and the ability to be self-sustaining. One of the greatest advantages to a micro-home is the ﬂexibility they provide. Life Starter Homes start out with a single unit that is 8 ½ feet wide, 13 feet tall, 18 feet long. All homes contain a kitchen, living room, a full bath and a loft bedroom. The homes are made with interchangeable parts, which means that they can be easily expanded as the need arises. Two or more units can be built together, and new stories can be added to the top of the home as needed. Homes can be built to be portable, so that you do not have to buy land, or can be set up permanently on a foundation. These homes can also be constructed to be “off the grid”, meaning that they sustain themselves. They can be equiped with solar panels on the roof to generate enough electricity, and can have a roof system to collect and purify rainwater. There is an optional greenhouse extension, which can provide a year-round indoor garden. The houses can also be built with its own septic system. All of these factors combine to create a money-saving, self-sustaining lifestyle. Finally, the price range makes these homes incredibly affordable. Pricing starts at around $21,000, which means that with payments of around $400/month, an owner could pay it off in only 4-7 years, instead of the typical 15 to 30.

Eagle Mountain Business Forum The Eagle Mountain Business Forum was created as a means to strengthen local entrepreneurs and businesses. The forum meets each fourth Thursday of the month at 7 p.m. These meetings are free of charge and those attending are given a chance to meet and network with other business owners and employees in the Eagle Mountain area. The meetings also may include presentations from local business owners or speakers addressing a business-related topic. Eric Dow, one of three organizers of the Eagle Mountain Business Forum meetings, said the forum conducted a survey of Eagle Mountain business owners. “Through the survey and talking to people, the biggest thing people say they want is more exposure because a lot of them are home based businesses. I think just by coming (to forum meetings), if they’ll come and meet with other business owners, they’re more likely to get that exposure if other business owners know who they are and are sharing that with their friends and neighbors,” Dow said. For more information about the forum or to learn the location of an upcoming meeting, visit the forum’s Facebook page or website at EMBusiness.org.

Batteries + Bulbs

Batteries and bulbs, what does the average person know about either of those things? Well, 2014 Business of the Year and past Family Friendliest Business of the Year award winners Dave and Serenity Jones with Batteries + Bulbs of Lehi know quite a bit about those and much, much more. They didn’t always have this vast knowledge of all things batteries and bulbs. With a bachelor’s degree in social work, Serenity had been working in the assisted living field for 11 years and was on call 24/7. Her husband, Dave, was doing equipment maintenance for Super Sonic Car Wash, a job he’d held for 23 years, which required a lot of night work. They weren’t getting the time with their family they wanted and started considering other options. One day, Serenity saw a television show about a man who won the lottery. He ended up buying several franchises of the business with his winnings. Serenity’s interest was piqued, and she started researching the company. “David came home one day and I said, ‘So, what do you think about batteries?’” she said. Four years ago, they opened their own Batteries + Bulbs store at 770 E. Main in Lehi, and both have enjoyed the shift in career direction. “We’ve really liked the flexibility to be able to spend time with our family,” Dave said. “It seems like we’ve seen a lot more of our kids since we’ve opened.” Batteries + Bulbs offers batteries for everything from cars,

motorcycles and ATVs to cameras, cell phones, laptops and watches and provides cordless tool rebuilds. The store carries over 60 different car batteries and its staff offers free battery Dave and Serenity Jones testing and installation on most cars. Its staff members go through extensive training so they can help customers who aren’t sure what they need and what’s best for them. “There are so many batteries out there and trying to locate what you need, if you don’t know batteries, is really difficult,” Serenity said. “Our job is to have the knowledge to help the customer get a quality battery or bulb to meet their needs.” Just like with batteries, the store can help customers find the perfect bulb for their home, business or vehicle. Dave serves on the board of directors of the Lehi Chamber and is chairman of the Lehi Business Core. The Joneses attend a lot of Lehi chamber activities and Dave said chamber membership has been helpful in getting the word out about their business. “We definitely get exposure through the chamber,” he said.

Home2 Suites by Hilton The Home2 Suites by Hilton hotel in Lehi is the first of its kind in northern Utah County. Located at 3051 W. Club House Drive near Thanksgiving Point, the property is designed for business travelers and others who need a place to stay for a longer time than the typical vacationer. “It’s really geared around people staying for long periods of time and we want them to feel at home. Hence the name,” said Devin Slorah, general manager of the Lehi Home2 Suites by Hilton. Each room has a full kitchen with a refrigerator and all the needed supplies such as glassware and silverware. Most of the rooms are designed like a studio apartment, with one room including the kitchen, a king-sized bed and a sitting area with a sofa bed. There are also some one-bedroom suites and induction cooktops are available upon request. Room rates are affordable for business travelers or families on a budget. The rates are based on how many nights a room is booked, with lower prices for longer stays. Slorah said the hotel welcomes one- and two-night stays, but markets toward people looking to stay longer. About 40 percent of the hotel’s business is seven days or more. During the week, the hotel has a lot of business people as

guests, while the weekends tend to attract families and groups like youth sports teams. Because guests tend to stay longer, the hotel staff can enjoy getting to know them on a personal basis. One man from India and his wife stayed at the hotel for four months. “You get to know people from different countries. It’s very diverse. It’s awesome,” Slorah said. The hotel has also had families stay that are relocating and looking for a home or building a home that isn’t yet complete. “You literally get to know them on a personal level,” Slorah said. “It’s nice to have that relationship with your guests who are literally living here and we get to take care of them.” The hotel is pet friendly, meaning families don’t have to board their pets somewhere else. “We want to be looked at as someone, a group or company, who is out in the community helping,” Slorah said.

Thanksgiving Point Months prior to the opening of Thanksgiving Point’s new Museum of Natural Curiosity, Thanksgiving Point’s marketing department was working to develop a campaign that would get the word out in a creative and fun way. The result was the RUCURIOUS2 campaign, which kicked off on April Fool’s Day 2013 when Thanksgiving Point placed a submarine near a pond in Salt Lake City’s Liberty Park. An actor playing the captain of the submarine talked with people in the park about how his vessel became stranded in the park. “We got a fair amount of coverage for that. We were really thrilled with it,” said Emily Duffy, marketing manager for Thanksgiving Point. This opening event and the subsequent marketing efforts resulted in thousands visiting the new Lehi museum after its opening and helped the sale of membership passes - which allow people into any venue at Thanksgiving Point - to triple in 2014. The campaign also helped Thanksgiving Point win the Best Master Marketer 2014 award from the Lehi Area Chamber of Commerce. The marketing campaign included a website with videos, activities and curious facts about the museum. Artists submitted designs of monsters they thought would represent the campaign and the four selected were called the Curiosity Monsters. Drawings of the monsters were used in printed museum materials and

on the website, and plush versions of the monsters were given to museum donors. “We just tried to have a lot of fun with the campaign,” Duffy said. Thanksgiving Point focuses a lot of attention on its marketing while directing it toward families and trying to make it fun. Duffy said the marketing staff members work well together and want to create great experiences for the public. With every event at Thanksgiving Point, “We have every bit of confidence that the experience is going to be as good as what we’re selling,” Duffy said. “It’s very fulfilling here to know that everyone involved wants to create a tremendous experience.” Thanksgiving Point Director of Communications Josh Berndt said his organization utilizes social media to interact with the public. “Social media is free for the most part and if you engage with your customers, if you engage with your future customers, whatever business that may be, that creates wildfire and it just starts spreading,” he said. Thanksgiving Point also markets itself through two publications: the Gazette, which is mailed out quarterly to 114,000 homes, and a catalog that lists educational offerings and also comes out quarterly.

Rosemarie Lee, Goldtoe Socks Outlet Store Rosemarie Lee had lived Connecticut her entire life and spent 25 of those years working in the banking business. The cost of living there was expensive, however, and when her husband retired they decided to look at living elsewhere. An online search showed that Utah could be a good match, and the couple had friends here, so they visited the state and decided to make the move. Now, in recognition of her service to local businesses and the Lehi Area Chamber of Commerce, Lee has been named the chamber’s Marie Hutchings Business Person of the Year for 2014. “It’s such a great honor, to have only been here just these few years,” Lee said. After moving to Utah, Lee discovered that banking here didn’t pay as well as she’d hoped, so she decided to make a career change and enter the retail business. She worked at Target for a while, then at a Macy’s department store. She kept an eye on construction of the Outlets at Traverse Mountain, however, and went searching for a job there as soon as she could. She was hired as retail store manager of the Goldtoe Socks outlet store and led the opening of that store in November of 2012. In February of 2015, her store received the Five Star Customer Service Award from the Outlets at Traverse Moun-

tain for excellence in customer service. “If you don’t have good customer service, you’re not going to have good business,” Lee said. “Training your staff so they can give that good customer service has got to be a top priority.” Having been a member of half a dozen chambers of commerce through her banking work in Connecticut, Lee had seen the benefits of chamber membership and knew that she wanted her store to be a member of the Lehi chamber. The Goldtoe store became a chamber member in January of 2013. Since then, she has been involved in many chamber activities including the Easter parade on Main Street, the chamber’s annual golf tournament and Lehi’s Foam Day. She attends the chamber’s Business After Hours networking meetings as well as the chamber’s breakfast meetings, and she serves as the liaison between the chamber and the Women in Business organization. Earlier this year, she joined the chamber’s board of directors.

Henshaw retiring after 15 years as superintendent After leading Alpine School District through a significant growth period that saw more than 26,000 students and 25 new schools added to the district, Alpine Superintendent Vernon M. Henshaw is retiring from his position as the district’s head administrator. Henshaw will leave the district July 31, 2015, after serving as superintendent for 15 years. During that time, Alpine student enrollment increased from 47,000 to more than 73,000. To accommodate the growth, more than $640 million in building projects were completed, including 25 new schools and eight remodeled and rebuilt schools. The projects were funded through three successful bond elections. “Here’s the thing that’s phenomenal: during all this period of growth, the achievement of students increased during that period of time and the graduation rates increased,” Henshaw said. “I think that’s a direct result of the focus that as a whole the system put on student learning and those outcomes of improvement taking place in every classroom.” End-oflevel test scores in language arts, science and math steadily improved during his time as superintendent, and graduation rates rose from 73 percent in 2008 to 90 percent in 2014. Overall, Henshaw has spent 38 years in public education. He obtained his first teaching job in Alpine School District when he was hired to teach social studies at Lehi High School. He later became an assistant principal at Provo

High School, then a principal at American Fork and Timpanogos high schools and assistant superintendent of 10th- through 12thgrade schools for Alpine district. In 2008, he was named Utah’s Superintendent of the Year. The most enjoyable part of his job has been working with the people in the district and the community. “I’ve also enjoyed watching the district, if you will, evolve where the focus has been Vernon M. Henshaw more direct on student learning. … Just to see that whole evolution has been exciting,” he said. He expressed gratitude to district patrons for their support over the years and willingness to provide the financial resources that allowed the district to keep up with its growth. The district projected the growth that was coming, and the public voted to approve bond issues to fund the needed schools. “The key is we accounted for those dollars on every bond so that they knew that we did what we said we were going to do,” he said, “and I think that obviously developed the confidence and the trust in the school district.”

Students loving Chinese classes at LHS Seven years ago, there was no Chinese language program at Lehi High School. Now the school has a flourishing program and both junior high schools feeding students into LHS have Chinese classes. In the three schools combined, there were about 340 students enrolled in Chinese classes during the 2014-15 school year. “The Chinese program is very, very strong, lots of the kids are in Chinese, and it’s definitely one of the best classes because you learn so fast because of how both of the teachers do it,” said LHS sophomore Brianna Grover. The program was started by Aaron Andersen, who was hired to teach at Lehi High in 2007. Andersen grew up in Hong Kong speaking English and Chinese. Originally hired to teach AP History and U.S. History, Andersen said the LHS principal asked him to start a Chinese program after his first year of teaching. The program began with two classes and 50 students. During the 2014-15 school year, Andersen taught four Chinese classes, including AP Chinese, and part-time teacher Carter Durrant taught two Chinese classes. The demand is still growing, however, and next year, Andersen and Durrant will teach four classes each. Andersen also oversees the school’s Chinese Club, which meets after school every few weeks to learn more about the Chinese language and culture. LHS

students have won first and second place in the state at BYU language fairs. Andersen said Chinese is very different from languages such as French and Spanish in its sound and its writing system, and the students are fascinated by it. To keep their interest and encourage them to practice speaking out loud, Anderson includes unique and fun activities in his classes. For example, he had the students in one class reenact a bachelorette competition in which the girls asked the boys questions and judged them on how polite they were and how they answered. “In any language class, the challenge is that kids are scared to speak the language. They don’t want to make a mistake in front of their friends,” Andersen said. “That’s why we created the fun atmosphere with games and activities that make the kids comfortable and willing to experiment.” In another attempt to excite the students about the Chinese culture, the LHS Chinese program hosts a Chinese New Year celebration each year for parents, classmates and children in Chinese immersion programs. The event includes games, crafts and food as well as traditional Chinese dancing.

WHS win honors with culinary arts skills From Westlake High School’s opening six years ago, its culinary arts students have been a powerhouse in Utah, consistently placing in the top 10 in state competitions and traveling to nationals twice. The students learn and compete through the ProStart program, a nationwide program supported by the National Restaurant Association that teaches students about the food service and hospitality industry. Through ProStart, students learn about safe food preparation, menu design, developing recipes and proper cooking methods. Cooking is a big part of ProStart, but the students also learn about the business side of the industry, from creating a business plan to pricing out dishes, utilizing management skills and providing good customer service. “The reason why it’s called ProStart is it gives the students a professional start to the food industry,” said Candace Wilson, a family and consumer science teacher and the ProStart instructor at WHS. ProStart is taught as a regular class during the school day, with students required to take two prior foods classes before they can enroll in ProStart. Teaching materials are provided by the National Restaurant Association and the program takes two years to complete. If they complete the requirements, students can receive a two-year certificate that is recognized

The management team has to create a restaurant business plan, develop recipes for the menu and determine the prices for those recipes, and present their business plan to the judges. The students spend many hours practicing and doing research to prepare for competition. In 2015, the WHS culinary team took first at regional competition and sixth placed in the state. The management team took first at state, which qualified it to continue to the ProStart national competition. The team took sixth place out of 40 teams at nationals. Only one team represents Utah at nationals each year, and the trip is funded by the Utah Restaurant Association, Wilson said.

New hospital provides services closer to home

Residents of Lehi and its surrounding communities will soon have access to full hospital services in a location much nearer to their homes than is currently available, making medical treatment more convenient and closer in emergencies. Mountain Point Medical Center, a new state-of-the-art community hospital, will open at the first of June at 3000 N. Triumph Blvd. in Lehi (just off the I-15 Timpanogos Highway exit on the east side of the freeway). The hospital will have all the services patients expect from a hospital including an emergency room, surgical services, an intensive care unit, a labor and delivery unit and laboratory services. Attached to the hospital is a three-story medical office building where a group of physician partners will be housed. These will include the Central Utah Clinic, the largest independent multispecialty physician group in Utah, along with Alpine Pediatrics, Peak ENT Associates, Valley Obstetrics & Gynecology, Premiere Family Medical and an OnSite Care clinic. Many of the doctors that will provide medical services at Mountain Point Medical Center already practice at other locations in the community, so it is possible that a northern Utah County patient will be able to keep seeing the same doctor while enjoying the shorter drive to Mountain Point. The medical center’s parent company is IASIS Healthcare based in Franklin, Tenn., a company that already operates hospitals in Salt Lake and Davis counties. Mountain Point

is its first facility in Utah County. Angela Evatz, director of business development, marketing and operations for Mountain Point, said the decision to construct a hospital in northern Utah County was based on community need. Lehi and its neighboring communities make up the fastest-growing area in the state, with the closest hospitals located in Draper and American Fork. The new hospital’s anticipated service area includes Lehi, Alpine, Highland, Cedar Hills, American Fork, Eagle Mountain and Saratoga Springs. Mountain Point Medical Center will open with 44 beds, but it is designed for future expansion. The building can accommodate an additional two floors in the future and eventually have as many as 150 beds. The 28-acre medical center campus has additional property where the hospital could expand outward as well. More than 200 physicians will be on the hospital’s medical staff as well as about 150 full-time employees including nurses, lab technicians and office staff.
