Married student housing complex gives
officials a peek at Ephraim growing pains
By Suzanne Dean
Publisher
EPHRAIM—Approval of a 20-unit, privately
owned married-student housing complex in
Ephraim has parted a curtain and provided a peek
at the growing pains the city might be facing in
the future.
Based on projects now underway and the
number of developers contacting Ephraim City
to explore possible developments, it is starting to
look as if that future is now.

“The growth of the college has my full attention,” says Bryan Kimball, city planner.
Architect’s drawing of apartments in a 20-unit, privately owned married-student
Snow College has grown substantially over the complex scheduled for development on the southeast corner of 400 East and 100

Mt. Pleasant doubles base rate for
secondary irrigation, adds useage fee
By Jackson Pemberton
Staff writer
MT. PLEASANT—The Mt.
Pleasant City Council has voted
unanimously for a significant
rate increase on secondary
irrigation water.
During a meeting last Tuesday, April 12, the council approved a base rate increase from
$4 to $8 and a new usage charge
of $3.85 per acre.
The justifications include
the costs of maintaining the
“city’s aging irrigation infra-
structure” and the fact the city
has been forced to use money
from its general fund to subsidize the irrigation system.
The new resolution includes
a provision authorizing to the
mayor to reduce the per-acre
fee for households to reflect the
actual areas being irrigated.
Under the provision, a resident can request that the mayor
send a representative to visually
determine what fraction of the
lot should be used in computing
the acreage charge.

Salina woman to trek more than
1,600 miles for animal awareness

Staff writer
SALINA—A Salina woman suffering from a chronic pain
condition is getting ready to walk more than a thousand miles
for animals.
Jeannine Fullmer, founder of the Fullmer Menagerie Animal
Rescue in Salina, and her four-legged companion, Ollie, will
embark on a 1,600-mile trek along the Great Western Trail to
raise awareness of animals housed in rescue shelters.
“This walk incorporates my passion,” Fullmer said. “And
what better way is there to spread awareness?”
In four months,
Fullmer has raised just
over $2,000, which is
only a fraction of her
$20,000 goal.
Her aspiration is to
raise enough money
to help low-income
families pay veterinarian costs to spay,
neuter and vaccinate
pets; to build more accommodating outdoor
dog-run areas; and to
better insulate kennels,

The Forest Service has projects in store for this summer
that will improve roads and trail
access in the Manti-LaSal National Forest around Ephraim,
Mt. Pleasant and Sterling.
The projects are being funded with help from the Sanpete
County Travel Council, the
Utah Division of Parks and Recreation, the Mormon Pioneer
National Heritage Area and the
Governor’s Office of Economic
Development’s Office of Outdoor Recreation.
“The Governor’s Office
realizes that Utah is growing
so fast, and we need to invest
in outdoor recreation,” Kevin
Christensen, director of Sanpete Economic Development,
said. “People love coming to
Utah for its outdoor recreation,
and we have to be able to keep
up with that.”
New Canyon Road, east of
Ephraim, will get significant
repairs and upgrades this summer, and a new loop route will
be created in the process.
Forest Road 1081 is northmost fork of New Canyon
Road, but it has a half-mile
section which, instead of connecting to the trail to the east,
ends abruptly.
The Forest Service plans
to go in with equipment and
construct the missing section
to complete the new loop.
Meanwhile, the lower mile
of New Canyon Road will be
roto-milled beginning next
month. After the roto-milling,
the Forest Service will add road
base from the main canyon
road all the way past New Canyon Reservoir.
Road base will also be added
to the north portion of LeftHand-Fork Road toward the
area known as Fred’s Flat.

we are improving the user experience, both for residents and

Wasatch dedicates new Administration Building
By Robert Stevens
Managing editor
MT. PLEASANT—The new Martin
and Beverly Pierce Administration
Building at Wasatch Academy was dedicated on Saturday with a cornerstone
ceremony performed by the head of
the Grand Lodge of Free and Accepted
Masons of Utah.
“It’s an honor and privilege to be
part of this ceremony,” said Wes Ing,
head of the Grand Lodge of Utah, “We’re
using the ancient tools and traditions
of masonry to dedicate a state of the art
facility. It’s a great bridge between the
customs of the past and the innovations
of today.”
Measuring 15,468-square feet if you
include the basement level floor, the new
building will be a hub for the following
departments and offices: Head of School,
admissions, marketing and communications, philanthropy, global initiatives,
business offices, registrars, Asst. Head
of Teaching and Learning and the Asst.
Head of Programs and Student Services.
The building began construction
with its groundbreaking in Aug. 2014,
and the cornerstone ceremony was one
of the final stages before its completion.
A traditional cornerstone ceremony
involves (1) checking the stone, using
ancient tools, to be certain it’s square,
plumb (straight) and level, (2) consecrating the cornerstone with corn (or grain)
and oil, which are Masonic symbols of
prosperity, health and peace and (3)
symbolically tapping the stone into place

with a gavel.
The building was named after beloved benefactors Martin and Beverly
Pierce. Martin graduated from Wasatch
and loved the school so much, he and his
wife, Beverly, sent all of their children to
Wasatch as well.
Joe Loftin, head of school at Wasatch
Academy, spoke about the contributions
the Pierces had made to the school.
“Martin and Beverly Pierce were
Wasatch Academy. They made sure this
school worked,” Loftin said, “We are forever grateful. They have been at the top
of our list of generous benefactors, always
standing behind us making sure projects
happen. I am so honored today that we
are dedicating this new administration
building to Martin and Beverly Pierce.”
Wasatch Academy plans to renovate
the old administration building with
seismic upgrades, new electrical, fire
suppression technology and classrooms
with a new layout.

Her exhibit, called

stained glass windows.
So she took a class and

Mayfield Town seeking more
substantial police presence
By Megan Batterman
Mayfield council fills empty
seat with Malynda Bjerregaard
Staff writer
By Megan Batterman
MAYFIELD— At a recent town council meeting,
Mayfield’s mayor, John Christensen, discussed the possibility of arranging for a more
substantial police presence to
help mitigate the risks that
come with busy weekends and
dangerous drivers.
At the meeting on Wednesday, April 13, Christensen
said,” There’s a certain point
when the population of a town
reaches a number when it
becomes our responsibility to
have law enforcement. We are
not at that size yet, but we are
not too far off, and the need is
still there.”
Mayfield currently relies
on the Sanpete County Sheriff ’s Department for its law
enforcement needs, and, while
Christensen says they’ve always responded quickly and
have filled the need up until
this point, he says it’s time to
consider buying some dedicated time from the sheriff ’s office
or another agency in an effort
to increase police presence and
minimize problems with traffic
or ATVs during busy
Small towns sometimes pay
or contract with neighboring
law-enforcement agencies by
entering into an interlocal
agreement to enhance the
police presence in the community. The increased law
enforcement will, however,
come at a cost to the taxpayers.

(See “Mayfield” on A4)
A yield sign currently stands at the intersection of 100 West and
Canyon Road in Mayfield after complaints were received about
potentially dangerous weekend ATV and motorcycle traffic. The
mayor and town council are mulling over increasing police presence in the town to help as well.

Malynda Bjerregaard on
Wednesday April 13, to fill
the vacancy left by David
Sorensen.
Bjerregaard is a native
of Utah and has lived in
Mayfield since 2008 with her
husband, Lee, and their four
children. She is an assistant
professor in the Communications Department at Snow
College and holds a master’s
degree with an emphasis in
interpersonal communication.
Malynda told the council,
“My biggest strength is my
ability to dig in and do what
is asked of me. My other

strength is I love to learn.”
She told the council she
is concerned most about the
core town: “We have a lot
of people choosing to live
outside the town, instead of
inside.”
She thinks the key to
retaining citizens lies “in the
little things” such as bringing more cultural and art
opportunities to the town:
“Any commerce that were to
come here could build off of
the small town charm.”
Her appointment will last
until Dec. 31, 2017, at which
time she will be eligible to run
for a four-year term.
The council also voted to
appoint Karen Watkins to the
pool committee, while Aaron
Peterson and Lee Bjerregaard
were appointed to the recreation committee.
Malynda Bjerregaard was appointed to the Mayfield Town
Council on Wednesday, April
13, to fill the vacancy left by
council member David Sorensen.

Children’s Justice Center
Education is key to understanding
serious consequences of child abuse
By Lyle Fletcher
Staff writer
MANTI—An open
house at the Sanpete County
Children’s Justice Center in
Ephraim the first week in April
was just one of the activities
around the county this month
marking Child Abuse Awareness Month.
The goal of the nationwide
observance is to help people
understand the consequences
of mistreating and harming
children, along with making
them aware of what is being
done to soften the blow after
abuse occurs.
The open house gave people an opportunity to see the
Children’s Justice Center and
the services it provides.
Besides holding the open
house, the Friends of the Children’s Justice Center gave a
banner to each city and each
school in an effort to achieve
one of the organization’s main
goals this year—to raise awareness and to prevent child abuse.
Members of the Friends
board also provided 600 blue
pinwheels to remind people about child abuse. People
from the Friends organization,
along with school children,
placed the pinwheels around
the county at schools and community centers.
“Utah is the eighth
highest ranking state
for child abuse victims.
This is way too high,
and it is our goal to
educate and inform
our Sanpete County
residents that abusing
a child is not okay.”
—JoAnn Otten, boardmember, Friends
of Sanpete County
Children’s Justice Center
“We feel that education
is a key part of preventing
child abuse,” says JoAnn Otten, one of the Friends and a
staunch advocate of “having
the strength to be gentle” with
children after her granddaughter suffered permanent injury
from child abuse.
“An interesting fact is that
LETTERS
Utah is the eighth highest
ranking state for child abuse...
This is way too high, and it is
our goal to educate and inform
our Sanpete County residents
that abusing a child is not
okay,” she said.
Local child-abuse-prevention organizations use
a variety of methods to inform the public, Otten says.
“We have a movie ad that is
being played at the theaters
in Ephraim throughout the
month of April, which also
raises awareness and (encourages) prevention.”
The Children’s Justice Center gives children a comfortable, safe setting, she said,
“while they are meeting with
investigators and other team
members about allegations of
child abuse.”
Each child who comes to
the center receives a blanket
and treats, provided by the
Friends organization.
Besides assisting in law-enforcement investigations, the
Children’s Justice Center provides “abused children and
troubled families with referrals
for support services, such as

other than ATVs to traverse.
In the first year of working
on it, the Forest Service used a
roto-mill to grind down most
of the rocky sections of the
road. During fall of last year, the
agency began adding road base
in an effort to further improve
the condition of the road. When
funding ran out, the project
came to a halt.
With the help of grants and
other funds from Mt. Pleasant
City and other project sponsors,
the Forest Service is planning to
pick up where it left off, adding
road base to the canyon road
to make it easier for everyone
to use.
Likewise, the lower section
of Six-Mile Canyon outside of
Sterling is getting road base.
In addition to the road base,
the Forest Service is installing
new restrooms at Six-Mile
Ponds.
“The better we can make the
trail system, the more people
will want to come and will keep
coming back,” Christensen said.
Sacred right of speech means no muzzling
In his recent letter to the
editor, Chad Taylor ends by
saying he is “flummoxed.”
Well, it is understandable
why he is confused when you
read his illogical arguments.
The primar y one goes
something like this: Religious
people should be worried about
being perceived as condoning
adultery when they openly
condemn the supposedly lesser
sin of homosexuality.
So if you condemn one sin,
you automatically condone
another.
What could be more foolish?
Taylor should know religious people condemn all
sins—greater ones and lesser
ones.
Taylor himself condemns
homosexuality when he cites
Leviticus 20:13. Does that
mean he condones adultery?
No, because he also cites the
commandment against adultery.
By the way, Taylor gives
little proof that homosexuality
is a lesser sin. He doesn’t look at
the larger picture of the times,
and he seems to have forgotten
the cause of the destruction of
Sodom and Gomorrah.
The truth is “marginalized
Americans” are not marginalized at all.
Witness recent court decisions that have unconstitutionally authorized gay marriage and the “right” of that
persecuted minority to adopt
children.
The real purpose of Taylor’s
letter is clear. He is trying to
curtail people’s First Amendment right to free speech.
It is sad to see a regular
citizen join ranks with the
thousands of liberals, fascist
professors and students, ethnic
groups and the media who are
offended and even outraged to
see decent Americans exercise
their right to free speech.
But without that sacred
right, a nation rapidly descends
to government tyranny and an
enslaved populace.
Of course, with free speech
comes the responsibility to use
it wisely.
However, it is dangerous
for corrupt politicians, an
activist Supreme Court, uninformed citizens and special
interest groups to set the limits
of free speech.

(Continued from A2)
The Gunnison Valley Fire
Department, which serves
Gunnison, Centerfield, Fayette
and Mayfield, as well as the
unincorporated area in the
Gunnison Valley, is an example
of this type of interlocal agreement.
The possibility of an interlocal agreement for law
enforcement was discussed by
the leaders of Gunnison Valley’s cities and towns during
a summit in February. Since
then, Christensen has had
ongoing discussions with the
sheriff ’s office and the leaders and law enforcement of
Gunnison and Centerfield to
ascertain the cost of combined
law enforcement.
Christensen said the town
will hold a public hearing
when the time comes to gather
input and support from the
community.
Christensen, who has an
extensive background in law
enforcement himself, said, “I
know it’s possible, and it’s a
good way for Mayfield to go
as our needs increase.”
Mayfield’s proximity to
the nearby White Hills brings
ATV and motorcycle enthusiasts through the community.
Some citizens view traffic violations as one of the
biggest threats to their quiet
community—everything from
speeding to dangerous driving.
Mayfield resident Keenan
Haight said, “The weekends
turn into a Wild West town.”
Haight would like to see
a four-way stop installed in
the intersection of 100 West
and Canyon Road where he
happens to reside.
Christensen has consulted
with the Utah Department
of Transportation in the past
about the intersection in question, which resulted in yield
signs being installed.

grow for the foreseeable future,
up to several hundred students
per year. That could translate to
an extra 1,000 students in the
community in three to five years,
or 2,000 in eight to 10 years.
“How many beds does that
require?” Kimball asks. “How
do you build those out?...How
do we provide infrastructure?
And, Kimball wonders out
loud, what if, at some point,
the college goes four-year, as
other two-year schools in Utah
have, triggering a much bigger
onslaught of young people?
Currently, Ephraim is zoned
to permit multi-unit housing
near the college, with densities
stepping down to fourplexes, duplexes and single family housing
“We’re not Salt Lake, but
we’re no longer the sleepy
little town we used to be
when these ordinances
were established.”
—Bryan Kimball,
Ephraim city planner
as you move out from campus.
But much of the current development even in multifamily
zones is single-family.
Vacant land east of 400 East
zoned for multifamily development is starting to run short.
Most of the parcels that are left
come with special development
challenges, Kimball says.
City officials have asked
whether market pressures and
land availability could propel
developers to start buying up
homes around the college and
putting in three-story buildings
(the greatest height currently
permitted in the city other than
on campus).
“This is a pretty sensitive
subject for a lot of people,” Kimball says.
During the last two weeks of
March, the Ephraim City Planning Commission and Ephraim
City Council repeatedly took
up the 20-unit complex, which
they ultimately approved for the
southeast corner of 400 East and
100 South.
The developer, Ray Morley
of Spanish Fork, who owns a
construction company that has
built schools in Utah County
and throughout the United
States, said the trigger for him
was when two of his grandsons,
both married, came to play
football at Snow this year.
Both had a difficult time
finding a place to live. One
was ready to live in Nephi and
commute to Ephraim, but ultimately found local housing.
Morley told the city council
he wanted to build a quality
project with features such as
granite countertops, hardwood cabinets and energy
efficient insulation.
“They’re very attractive,”
Councilwoman Margie Anderson said as she viewed a
poster containing an architect’s
drawing of the proposed apartment buildings. “There absolutely is a need in the community.”
There were two problems. First, Morley’s density was too
high. He wanted to build 20
units on about 9/10ths of an
acre, but based on a formula
in the city’s multifamily zoning
ordinance, he only had enough
land to build 17.
Second, and somewhat related, he didn’t meet the requirement of having a 20-foot setback
between his property line along
100 East, and his property line
along 400 South, and the wall of
the potential apartment building
closest to each of the streets.
“The trend is that land is becoming more expensive and to
make anything pencil you have
to have enough units...,” Kimball
told the city council. “Up in Salt
Lake City, people are saying the
designed to leave space for
streets, they are much wider
than the streets need to be. In
some places, curb, gutter, a
grass strip and sidewalk take up
the portion of the easement not
occupied by asphalt, and private
property starts on the other side
of the sidewalk. But in many
number is 40 or 50 units per ace.
We’re not Salt Lake, but we’re no
longer the sleepy little town we
used to be when these ordinances were established.”
Morley echoed that idea.
“In order to make (the development) feasible, there has to be
some kind of ratio of apartments
to acreage,” he said. “This (plan)
is what works for us.”
When it came to the setback
requirement, the dilemma was
that there was plenty of open
space between the streets and
the proposed buildings. But the
first 10 feet, on both 100 South
and 400 East, was taken up by a
city right-of-way, or easement,
put in decades ago as future
streets were mapped.
While such easements were
locations, people have developed
yards on the easements. Many
older homes are just a few feet
away from easement lines, a lot
closer than the 20-foot setback
in the current zoning ordinance.
The easements on 400 East
and 100 South, although city
land, are vacant and not maintained. City officials admitted
that the city strip along 100
South contained some unsightly
trees that the city had neglected
over the years.
Yet the ordinance required
the setback to be measured
based on distance from Morley’s
property lines to his proposed
buildings and did not include
the space in the easements.
After extensive deliberation, the city council resolved
the problems by amending the
whole multifamily ordinance.
The council increased the
maximum density permitted
in the city. The zoning ordinance said a developer needed
6,000 square feet of land for
the first unit and 2,000 square
feet for each additional unit.
As amended, the ordinance now requires 6,000
square feet for the first unit
and 2,000 square feet per unit
for the second through the
seventh unit. After a developer gets to eight units, he or she
now has to have only 1,500
square feet of land per unit,
up to 20, 30 or however many
units the developer requests.
With the amendment, Morley had enough land for his 20
units.
The city council also amended the setback provisions so that
setbacks are now measured from
the street, not the property line,
and can include city easements.
That solved the Morley’s problems on the 400 East 100 South
site.
Kimball did a study of
nonconforming setbacks in 16
blocks of the city and found that
such an amendment could up
clear up many encroachment
issues citywide.
The city council talked
about, but didn’t do anything
yet, about all the traffic that will
travel up 100 South, a street now
leading to the 36-unit Palisade
Apartments. Four years ago, the
street was a dirt road. Currently,
only the south half of the intended road surface is paved.
“With Palisade dumping
traffic in there and this complex
dumping traffic in there,” city
needs its right-of-way, because

can put or recall energy anytime
you want, but there are some
restrictions. If you recall (want

Eldredge said the contract

power benefits no area being

price tag on a source of power

This house will be demolished to pave way for a 20-unit married-student project in Ephraim. Large trees in front of the house
have been topped in preparation for removal. Three current
development projects in Ephraim have involved demolition of
single-family homes.
“It needs it now,” Councilwoman Anderson said.
The road appears to be just

growth translating to city infrastructure needs.
Significantly, more developments, possibly some as thorny
as the married student complex,
appear to be down the pike.
A large developer appears
to be in the process of buying
a 7-acre parcel east of 400 East
and south of the 15-year-old,
100-plus-unit Park Place student-housing complex for a
potential apartment complex.
The land is currently zoned
single family but is adjacent to
several large student and multifamily housing complexes.
Kimball emphasizes that the sale
is not yet final, and right now,
the land is just sitting. The city
has received no applications for
development.
But when rumors started
circulating, “my phone started
ringing and has not stopped,”
Councilman Scott said at a city
council meeting. “There are

STERLING—Several residents in Sterling have raised
concerns over secondhand
smoke during 24th of July
activities and other outdoor
events.
Council member Marilyn
Lyon brought the issue before
the town council during the
April 15 meeting, and the
council discussed the possibility of having a designated
smoking area available to help
alleviate the problem.
A number of communities in Utah have established
outdoor smoking ordinances.
Within Sanpete County, however, only Ephraim, Fairview,
Fountain Green and Moroni
have adopted these policies.
The council discussed how
best to address the issue of
secondhand smoke in outdoor
settings and will revisit the issue at its next council meeting.
Mayor Randall Cox announced that all the streets
in Sterling will be chip sealed,

He was born Sept. 17, 2009,
in Gunnison, Utah, a son of
Kirby Arlon and Tawnie Lee

Tucker’s personality was
one of a kind. He always had
a smile on his face and something up his sleeve. He was the
kind of person that most people spend a lifetime trying to
become...kind, happy, positive,
loving, selfless and forgiving.
This all came natural to him;
he didn’t need a long lifetime
to learn these things. He was a teacher of these
attributes to all he came in
contact with. He looked up to
superheroes but he had greater
powers than any comic book
hero: love, kindness and gratitude.
Tucker was attending kindergarten at Salina Elementary
School. Spending time outside
with his family and friends
was something Tucker looked
forward to each day. Tucker is survived by his
dad Kirby; mom Tawnie (Steve
King); all of Salina; sisters: Avery, Halie and Lexi, all of Salina;

Grandpa: the Man, the
Myth, the Legend.
Robert Earl (Bob) Ivory
was a self-made man, a fearless
entrepreneur, a collector of life
experiences, and an idol to his
nine grandchildren. He left us
on April 7, 2016, after a long,
hard-fought battle with brain
cancer.
His unpredictable life began
Aug. 7, 1957, in Fountain Green,
Utah as the son of a turkey
farmer, continued in the South
Pacific as a sailor in the Navy,
and grew to include a family and
businesses in Tempe, Arizona. In
the early eighties he returned to
Utah, first to expand his business
in Park City, and then to live out
his remaining days in Fountain
Green - the place he always
called home.
Bob was a carwash entrepreneur and visionary, and
single-handedly built his Buggy
Bath carwash empire to include
locations in Tempe, Mesa and
Scottsdale, Arizona, as well as
Park City and Sandy, Utah. He
was proud of all that he built
and the many opportunities it
afforded his family.
He was equally proud of his
time in the Navy, during which
he served on the USS Boxer
in the South Pacific. He was
designated an Atomic Bomb
veteran and recognized for his
courageous service as part of the
Pacific Fleet Atomic Weapons
Testing Task Group.
He lived out his final year
among other proud veterans
at the Central Utah Veterans
Home, a wonderful place that
treats our American heroes with
great dignity in the final years of
their lives.
Bob was an adventurous
traveler, a pilot, a fisherman, a
hunter, and a great chef. He rode
camels in Egypt, sailed around
Cape Horn and through the
Panama Canal, caught salmon in
Oregon, hunted bears in Canada, wore a Rasta wig in Jamaica,
and bargained for blankets in
Guatemala and rugs in Turkey.
He was also a barbecue master, winning multiple contests
for his famous ribs and pulled
pork, and passed along a passion
for barbecue to his children and
grandchildren. He was challenged in life
by an alcohol addiction, but his
characteristic strength helped
him overcome his addiction
and remain sober for over 35
years. He recently received his
35-year sobriety coin from AA
and spent all of those years as a
dedicated AA sponsor committed to helping others suffering
from addiction. Bob is preceded in death
by his parents, Earl and Roma
Ivory, of Fountain Green, Utah;
his daughter, Janet Ivory, of Salt
Lake City, Utah; and Sam, Rosie
and Rudy, the beloved dogs who
were always by his side. He is
survived in death by his three
children, Teresa Ivory Briggs of
San Mateo, California; Kenneth
Robert Ivory of West Jordan,
Utah; and Roxanne Ivory of
San Mateo, California; his nine
grandchildren; and his siblings,
Leola Mikkleson of Woods
Cross, Utah; and Ronald Ivory
of Fountain Green, Utah.
His favorite T-shirt read “Of
course I’m right, I’m Bob.” and
his favorite song was “My Way”
by Frank Sinatra - both of which
sum up the man who lived by his
own rules and inspired everyone
around him. A graveside service will
be held at the Fountain Green
cemetery on Saturday, April 23,
2016, at 5 p.m. In lieu of flowers,
the family asks that donations be
made to the Central Utah Veterans Home, 1551 North Main
Street, Payson, Utah 84651.

Lucy Maud Montgomery’s popular 1908
novel has been made into motion pictures and

North Sanpete High School auditorium on
Thursday, April 28, through Saturday, April 30,

pathways at Gunnison Valley
and Ephraim middle schools
are giving students a chance
to get involved in career paths
before they even get to high
school.
Mark Anderson, the CTE
director over three districts
(South Sanpete, North Sanpete
and Juab), updated the South
Sanpete School Board at their
regular board meeting on
Wednesday, April 13.
He noted that middle
school students in the district
are benefitting from hands-on
training with Science, Technology, Engineering and Math
(STEM) labs, one in each middle school.
Anderson explained that
the STEM labs were developed
for the engineering technology
and technical science classes
as part of the new revised
College and Career Awareness
program for seventh graders.
The modules of career
paths available to Sanpete
seventh graders is impressive: Alternative energy, biotechnology, computer-aided
design and drafting (CADD),
computer numerical control
(CNC) manufacturing, e-design, electricity, energy, power
and mechanics, engineering
bridges, engines, flight, home
makeover, light and lasers,
plastic and polymers and rocketry and space.
“The STEM lab is a very engaging method of learning. The
‘Hands On, Minds On’ idea
causes students to really think
and ask questions, encouraging
them to take ownership in their
own learning. There is a lot
of reinforcement to academic
areas as well,” Anderson said,
“It is important that we have
STEM literate students to meet
future demands.”
Then when students get
to high school, he added, the
career paths expand to include
agriculture education, business
and marketing, family and
consumer science, information
technology, skilled and technical education and technology

COMPILED BY LYLE FLETCHER
Snow College honors
outstanding students
with Lorenzo Snow Awards
By Shirley Bahlmann
Staff writer
EPHRAIM—Snow College
celebrated students at the annual
Lorenzo Snow Awards Night.
These awards acknowledge
and celebrate excellence in students, and the awards were handed out on Thursday, April 14, in
the Greenwood Student Center.
For the past five years, Snow
College students have been nominated by peers and college employees for the Lorenzo Snow
Awards, named for the man who
helped found the college with his
cousin, Erastus Snow.
“We really wanted to find
a way to celebrate students,”
explained Marci Larsen, who
was initially in charge of the
event when it was separated
from awards given to college
employees: “We do recognition
of employees in the fall, and focus
on student awards in the spring.”
Craig Mathie, vice president
for student success, currently
chairs the awards and organizes
a committee to scrutinize the
nominees and single out three
finalists for each category. The
finalists and winners are revealed
at the awards night.
Gary Carlson, president of
Snow College, welcomed families and friends of the nominees,
saying, “We’re a relatively small
institution, but for the first time
in history we’ve crossed the
5,000-student mark this year,”
meaning the combined count of
students from both Ephraim and
Richfield campuses.
Radio personality J.D. Fox
emceed for the evening, introducing Kyle T. Day, a Snow alumnus, who encouraged students
to use social media responsibly,
research their career options, diversify, live life to be able to make
choices and enjoy life because it
moves fast. “Live life so you have
no regrets,” Day said.
From over a hundred nominations, the Badger of the Year
was named—freshman AneUnhu Gwatidzo from Zimbabwe.
He received his award in his
costume as Hamlet, because
of an imminent performance
scheduled that night. Looking
down at his costume, he quipped,
“Well, they said I had a unique
and personal style.”
Touted as a true Renaissance
man, Gwatidzo is on the president’s leadership team, Chess
Club leadership, performs on the
radio and participates in various
campus choirs. “I don’t have
explicitly defined plans for my
future,” Gwatidzo said, “but I’ve
found that following my gut has
led me well. It brought me here
almost on a random whim.”
The recipient of the Lorenzo
Snow Award was Megan Batterman, a nontraditional student
from the Richfield campus who
was told she was stupid, became
a high school dropout, had three
children, then went into a deep
depression when she lost her
fourth baby.
Finally deciding she wanted a
better life for herself and her surviving children, she enrolled in
Snow College. She feels starting
her college studies and associating with students helped her heal,
and she began reaching out and
rescuing other students.
She is so caring to everyone
on campus and never wants
anyone to be without friends.
Her optimism, hard work and
willingness to help others are an
inspiration.
Other awards went to Jacob
Southwick for Volunteer Service,
Jeff Harris for Student Employee
of the Year, Lisa Davies for Club/
Intramural Athlete of the Year,
Sydnie Martindale for Female
Varsity Athlete of the Year and
Jonah Trinnaman for Male Varsity Athlete of the Year, and the
Business Club was named Club
of the Year.
Outstanding academic students were also awarded: Brooke
Millett for business and applied
technologies, David Varney for
fine arts, Casey Lamb for humanities, Cody Hatch for natural science and mathematics, Victoria
Brown for social and behavioral
science.
In addition, Abdulrahman
“A.R.” Abbas was named Inspirational Student of the Year, Davis
Underwood is Man of the Year
and Kassandra Cruz is Woman
of the Year.
Play
(Continued from A7)
with a brother and sister who
are both getting up in years,
Matthew (Aidan Anderson)
and Marilla Cuthbert (Megan
Barker) of Green Gables.
Anne has been longing for
a home and is able to win them
over and stay.
The imaginative redhead
immediately bonds with Matthew as a “kindred spirit” but
continues to try to prove herself to Marilla.
As Anne stays in Avonlea,
she meets her “bosom” friend
Diana Barry (Amy Staker)
and school rival Gilbert Blythe
(Jonathan Fletcher).
At the end of the story,
Anne’s a young woman and
finally feels the sense of belonging she’s always wanted.
Barker, who plays Marilla,
said, “I love the experience of
being part of the production.
I want the audience to enjoy it
and for them to feel all the little
moments.”
Feeling all the little moments is one simple reason to
see this story brought to life,
live on stage.

BIBLE
‘Expedition Bible’ Reporting Directly from Israel
By Chip Thompson, Director of the Solid Rock Café Facilities
96 E Center, Ephraim
For the next three months ‘Expedition Bible’ articles will be sent to the Sanpete Messenger
directly from Israel. During this time, the 6th annual Solid Rock Israel Tour will happen
where we will guide a group of 19 people who will spend two weeks studying the history,
archaeology and Biblical connections at over 50 Biblical sites. Artifacts from each of these
sites are displayed in the Solid Rock Café Bible Museum in Ephraim, and y’all are invited
to come and view these ancient artifacts free of charge.
For the rest of the
summer, I [Chip]
will be learning
first-hand from
my good friend
Yoel who is in the
process of earning
his PhD in archaeology through Hebrew University in
Jerusalem. I look
forward to writing
my weekly articles
on the ground in
Israel as I experience the sights,
sounds, and cultures of the most
fascinating place
on earth.
world religions centers inside the ancient walls of Jerusalem, and Old City Jerusalem is
less than one square mile in size. Imagine mixing three of the world’s most prominent
religions together in such a small space. This mixture of Christians, Jews, and Muslims is
a perfect formula for very interesting news reporting.
An article I anticipate writing in the next couple of weeks will deal with a Biblical Passover
which is scheduled to take place on April 20th on top of Mount Gerizim. Did you know there
are Samaritan priests, who are direct descendants of Aaron, who still conduct a Passover
ceremony exactly as prescribed in the Bible—read about this in Exodus chapter 12. I
am excited to experience
this ancient religious event.
Even though we have already explored over 50
ancient Biblical sites in
the Holy Land there are
still many sites I hope to
explore this summer. As I
study and learn the history,
archaeology, and Biblical
connections in each of these
ancient cities, I will report
my findings to all of you
back in Sanpete. My time in
Israel will also coincide with
several of the holy festivals
of the Christians, Jews,
and Muslims. These religious events should provide
fascinating information for
Walking the Walls of Old City Jerusalem
the upcoming ‘Expedition
Bible’ articles.
Did you know the
“Pray for the peace of Jerusalem! May they be secure who love you!”
ancient city of Jerusalem is the holiest place on earth for the 2.2 billion Christians in our
world? It is also the holiest place on earth for all of the Jewish people in the world. It is Psalm 122:6—SHALOM.
also the second holiest place on earth for 1.6 billion Muslims. Much of the worship of these

Emery down twice, 16-5 and 2-1

Managing editor
GUNNISON—The Lady
Bulldogs won two major
victories over Emery last
week.
The Gunnison Valley
High School girls varsity
softball team is now 12-7
overall and 4-2 in region
play.
“We came out with our
bats hot,” Gunnison head
coach Tyson Brackett said,
“We had worked on going
back to the basics of hitting.
It really helped. Everyone on
the team contributed and
had some great cuts.”
The first win was a 7-2
away game on Tuesday,
April 12, where the Lady
Bulldogs got a great start
batting in the first inning
and then kept the runs coming throughout the game.
The Lady Spartans struggled to hit the ball and managed two runs in the fourth
inning.
Emily Brackett was the
winning pitcher, and Kemree Christiansen and Rhiley
McArthur both doubled.
In the rematch played on
Gunnison turf the following
Friday, the Lady Bulldogs
delivered a crushing 15-0
shutout.
Cold and heavy winds
howled, sending sand flying into faces and making
pitches curve more, but this
didn’t stop the Lady Bulldogs from making quick
work of Emery.
The game only lasted
three innings, owing to the
10-run rule and home runs
from both Emily Brackett
and Jerusha Miner.

GUNNISON—The Bulldogs continue to rack up region wins after winning twice
against the Emery Spartans
this week.
On Tuesday, April 12,
Gunnison traveled to face the
Spartans in a one-sided game
that ended with a 16-5 victory
for the blue and white.
The Bulldogs exploded
in the first inning with a
seven-run streak that served
them well in the landslide
win even after Emery began gathering a few runs
midgame.
In the fourth inning,
Gunnison managed a repeat
seven-run streak, ending the
game early because of the 10run rule.
Gunnison’s Drew Hill was
the game’s winning pitcher.
Garrett King hit a home
run and a double, while Parx
Bartholomew and Brady
Pogreszewski both hit doubles.
The two teams clashed
again the following Friday,
but the game had an entirely different dynamic, and
Gunnison won a much more
conservative 2-1 victory over
the Spartans.
With such limited scoring, the game could have
shifted momentum at any
moment. Bartholomew,
the game’s winning pitcher,
prevented any Spartan runs
up until the sixth inning,
when Emery finally got
one.
Bartholomew also hit a
double and, after the team
took a run in the third and the
fifth, Gunnison coasted into a
win.
The Bulldogs are now
11-5 overall and 5-1 in region
play. Today will face their local
rivals, the Manti Templars.

MANTI—The Manti
High School softball team
earned three impressive
wins last week to move to
the top of its region.
The Templars beat
Millard, 12-1, at home
and then went north to
beat Viewmont, 14-4, and
Hunter, 21-5.
On Tuesday April
12, the Templars jumped
ahead of the Millard Eagles,
3-0; allowed a run in the
fourth; and then blitzed
Millard with nine runs in
the fifth for a mercy-rule
victory.
In the circle, Kiana
Pogroszewski threw six
strikeouts. Amanda Naylor
belted a grand-slam homer.
On Friday, April 15 at
Viewmont, a 5A school, the
Templars were consistent in
their scoring and aggressive
on the bases. Manti scored
in all but two innings. Meg
Larson had a double in the
game.
On Saturday April 16,
the Templars were at Hunter, also in the 5A ranks.
Manti jumped out to an
8-3 lead after the first inning and never looked
back, winning the game
in four innings. Mikaela
Cox, Amanda Naylor and
Marquel Justice all doubled
in the game.
This week, the Templars
took on the top-ranked
South Summit Wildcats
on Tuesday. Results of that
game were not available at
press time.
The Wildcats are the
only team in the 2A Central
Region to beat the Templars so far this year. On
March 29 on the Templar
field, the Wildcats finished
strong to beat Manti, 16-13.
Manti will host South
Sevier on Friday. The Rams
only have two region losses,
a 7-3 loss to South Summit
and a 7-1 loss to the Templars.
Lady Badgers win easily, then really tested against Coyotes
By Bob Bahlmann
Staff writer
EPHRAIM—The Snow
College Lady Badger softball
t e a m h a d a Je k y l l - a n d Hyde weekend, earning two
relatively easy wins over the
College of Southern Nevada
(CSN), but squeaking by
in the final inning in their
two other games against the
Coyotes to win by one run.
On Friday April 15, the
Badgers caught fire in the
bottom of the third inning with
a 12-run flurry for their first,
13-2 win. Alyssa Arslanian
connected for a two-RBI triple
in the game.
The second game of the
day was a different story.
Although Snow was leading
8-4 after six innings, CSN
found its bats in the top of
the seventh to tie the game
at eight runs each.
Neither team scored in
the eighth, and the Snow
defense held again in the top
of the ninth. In the bottom of
the ninth, with Emily Street
on base, Autumn Dzierzon
connected on an RBI double
for the win.
The first game on
Saturday was a convincing
9-3 win for Snow. AnnMarie
Allred sparked a five-run
second inning with a twoRBI double. Arslanian topped
off the game with a two-RBI
home run in the bottom of
the sixth.
Game Two on Saturday
was another squeaker. The
Badgers trailed 5-4 after two
innings, tied it up in the
fourth, but gave up three runs
in the top of the fifth.
Helped along by a
solo home run by Cassidy
Anderson, three Badgers
scored in the bottom of the
sixth to tie the game.
Then Anderson sent one
over the fence down the left
field line in the seventh for
t he game-winning home
run. Ashlyn Peterson also
had a solo home run in the
second.
This week, the Badgers
will host t he C ollege of
Southern Idaho (CSI). The
Golden Eagles are currently
second in the Scenic West
Athletic Conference with a
21-7 record. The Badgers are
third at 15-11.
When the Badgers
traveled to Twin falls to play
CSI in mid March, they came
away with a two-game split.
Snow won the first game ,7-2;
lost the second 10-2; earned
a close 3-2 win; and then lost
in a defensive battle, 2-1.

Tigers compete in national tourney
By Doug Lowe
Special to the Messenger
NEW YORK CITY—The
Tigers of Wasatch Academy
were one of eight teams invited to a national basketball
tournament but lost against
the eventual champion of that
tournament.
The Tigers traveled to New
York City as one of only eight
teams—and the first ever from
Utah—invited to compete in
the Dick’s Sporting Goods
High School National Tournament.
In a quarterfinal game on
March 31, the No. 7 seeded
Tigers played the No. 2 seed,
Warriors of Oak Hill Academy
(Va.), and lost 64-81.
In that hard-fought game,
the Wasatch Academy squad
ended the first quarter ahead
by 11 points but eventually
lost to Oak Hill—the team that
emerged, two days later, as the
winner of the tournament after
having been the runner-up
in four prior attempts during
the tournament’s eight-year
history.
After their loss to Oak Hill,
the Wasatch Academy coach
Curtis Condie said, “It was an
honor to compete as one of the
eight teams invited to this prestigious tournament, and we
now plan on earning ourselves
another invitation next year.”
The Tigers had compiled
an impressive 29-3 record
during an independent season
in which they played and defeated some of the top-ranked
teams across the United States
and Canada, a season in which
they were ranked No. 15 in the
Michael Wayman of Manti (far right) and Payton Judy of Gunnison (No. 14) battle for a chance at
a header on a corner kick. The Templars won the close game, 2-0.

In this season, the Tigers
had played and defeated (8071) the team which emerged
as the runner-up in this year’s
Dick’s National tournament,
the Lakers of La Lumiere
(Ind.).
For the No. 5 seeded Lakers, it was a third trip to Dick’s
National and their first time
making it past the quarterfinals.
In the tourney’s final game
played at Madison Square
Garden on April 2, the Lakers
lost a tense overtime game to
the Oak Hill Warriors, 62-60,
to give the Warriors their first
Dick’s National championship.
Manti outruns Wasatch Academy and
Gunnison in soccer action last week
By Bob Bahlmann
Staff writer
EPHRAIM—The Manti
High School soccer team used
their home-field advantage last
week to earn a pair of key wins.
The Templars beat Wasatch
Academy, 3-1, on Monday
April 11 and then shut out
Gunnison, 2-0, on Tuesday
April 12.
The wins improved Manti’s 2A Central Region record
to 7-1 and put the Templars
solidly in first place midway
through the season.
Against the Tigers, Manti
pulled ahead 2-1 at the half and
increased that lead with another goal in the second period.
Michael Wayman had a
pair of goals for the Templars,
Daniel Frutos also scored.
Mujtaba Jebran had the single
goal for Wasatch Academy.
On Tuesday April 12, Wayman and Frutos produced for
the Templars again with one
goal each. Manti keeper, Dillon
Poulsen, got some help from
the Templar defense to earn
the shutout.
This week the Templars
hosted North Sevier on Tuesday April 14. Results were
not available at press time,
but the Wolves are struggling
with an 0-9 region record.
Although you can ne ver
discount any team, the game
should be an easy victory for
the Templars.
On Thursday, Manti travels
to Grand. This will be a totally
different scenario. The Red
Devils hold a 5-3 record, but
all three of their losses are by
were a single goal.
Grand lost at Manti, 4-3;
dropped a game to Wasatch
Academy, 3-2; and lost to a
much-improved Gunnison
team, 2-1.

Manti splits with win over Millard,
followed by loss to Summit Academy
By Bob Bahlmann
Staff writer
MANTI—The Manti
High baseball team split at
home last week with an 8-2
win over Millard and a 9-4
loss to Summit Academy.
The Templars now find
themselves in a three-way
battle for the top spot in the
2A Central Region. South
Sevier is in first place with
a 6-1 record. Its only loss
was to Delta, the team that
is in second place with a 5-2
record.
The Rabbits lost to Manti
2-1 and to South Sevier 3-1.
Manti has a season record
of 4-2, with losses to South
Sevier and Millard.
When Millard came to town
on Tuesday April 12, the
Templars played a steady and
consistent game, getting runs
in five of the six innings in
which they were at bat.
Manti led 5-0 after four
innings, gave up two runs
in the top of the fourth, and
then added three more runs
by the end of the game for
the six-run win.
Derek Wright went the distance on the mound and
threw eight strikeouts. He
also connected for a double
and a triple in the game.
Darron McClain had a double for the Templars.
Against Summit Academy
on Thursday April 14, Manti
trailed by three, but took a
one-run lead when four players crossed home plate in the
bottom of the fifth.
That was to be the end
of the Templar offense. The
Bears were able to add three
runs in each of the two remaining innings for the
five-point win.
Casey Barnes had the
only extra base hit for Manti,
a double.
The Templars have a busy
week this week, starting with
a road trip to South Summit on Tuesday April 19.
Results of that game were
not available at press time.
The will visit Gunnison on
Thursday and then host the
region-leading Rams from

Falcons outfly Hawks three times in a week
By Lyle Fletcher
Staff writer
MT. PLEASANT—The
Hawks of North Sanpete High
faced the Falcons of Canyon
View three times in the same
week, yet the Falcons flew by
the Hawks all three times in
the baseball contests.
On Tuesday, April 12, the
Hawks had the home-field
advantage but were kept scoreless. The Falcons did not score
until the third inning, bringing
in one run, and then blasted
13 runs in the top of the fifth
inning to secure the 14-0 win.
Trent Seely was on the
mound for the Hawks.
Later the same day, the
Hawks batted four runs in
during the first inning and two
more runs in the fourth and
fifth innings, but the Falcons
kept their bats hot enough over
seven innings to put 16 runs on
the board.
On the mound in the 16-8
loss for the Hawks was Tristan
Fell.
On Thursday, April 14,
North Sanpete traveled to
Canyon View and scored one
run in the second and third
innings. The Falcons, on the
other hand, scored in each
inning, bringing the final score
at the end of the fifth inning to
2-12.
Stefan Ramone was the
pitcher for North Sanpete.

Lady Hawks add more wins to record,
following a single loss to Canyon View
By Lyle Fletcher
Staff writer
MT. PLEASANT—The
Lady Hawks softball team
of North Sanpete High has
bagged a number of wins in
recent weeks.
After barely losing 9-10 at
Canyon View on April 5 in an
extra-inning game, the Lady
Hawks won a home game 3-5
against Richfield on April 8.
Then the Lady Hawks
played three games on April
9. First they were shut out
by South Sevier 0-8, then
squeaked by Salem Hills 6-5
and kept their winning streak
alive by defeating Westlake
11-3 and Brighton 19-3.
On April 12, the Lady
Falcons of Canyon View came
to town, and the Lady Hawks
returned the favor of winning
by one run in the final inning,
5-6. In the seven-inning game,
North Sanpete’s Aubree Ison
and Mariah Hafen both had
home runs.
TEACH A CHILD TO SAVE
“Some young people know more about Julius Caesar and volcanoes than they do about
budgeƟng and balancing a checkbook. So, while schools prepare students for real world
success, Cache Valley Bank will focus on helping young people develop skills for Įnancial
success.”
oīers the following Ɵps
for money-savvy parents
raising money-smart kids:
1. Set the example of a responsible money manager by paying bills on Ɵme, being a
conscienƟous spender and an acƟve saver. Children tend to emulate their parents’ personal
Įnance habits.
2. Talk openly about money with your kids.
Communicate your values and experiences with
money. Encourage them to ask you quesƟons,
and be prepared to answer them — even the
tough ones.
3. Explain the diīerence between needs
and wants, the value of saving and budgeƟng
and the consequences of not doing so.
4. Open a savings account at your local
Cache Valley Bank for your children and
take them with you to make deposits, so
they can learn to be hands-on in their
money management.
5. Give your kids posiƟve feedback. As they get older, give them responsibility over how they spend their money.
During the month of April and May, we are GIVING AWAY a free
piggy bank when you open a savings account with your kids (ages
1-12). Come in and see how easy it is to set up a savings account.

PUBLIC NOTICES
MANTI CITY
NOTICE OF HEARING
Manti City will conduct a public hearing on Wednesday, May 4th,
2016 at 6:30 p.m. in the main floor council room of the Manti City Complex,
50 South Main Street, Manti, Utah.
The purpose of this public hearing is to accept public comment
relative to the proposed sale of 35 acres Manti City owned property near
the Sanpete County Jail, south of highway 89 and east of Service Berry
Road.
Interested parties are encouraged to attend the hearing and/or present written comment to Manti City. Written comment may be delivered
or mailed to arrive at the Manti City offices, 50 South Main Street, Manti,
Utah 84642, prior to 4:00 p.m. on Wednesday, May 4th, 2016.
as foster “parents” is a challenge,
Fullmer said, yet fostering is an
important milestone toward
adoption.
Fostering has the potential
to save pets from euthanization
and get the animals accustomed to home life, making
them more likely to find permanent homes.
Just days before her 50th
birthday, Fullmer and Ollie will
begin their hike on May 1 near
the Utah/Arizona border. She
hopes to finish the trek in July
just over the Utah border in
Idaho.
She expects to navigate
through Manti-La Sal National Forest and Skyline Drive
toward the beginning of June
and asks for volunteers to join
her during rest stops approximately every 20 miles to keep
her company or to bring her
supplies or gear.
“I would love to have people
join me on my walk to rally and
cheer me on,” she said. “Believe
me, I’m going to need it.”
Fullmer will carry a nine-day
supply of rations, such as dried
fruit and dehydrated meals, in
zipper-seal packets, each containing around 2,000 calories.
Ollie will carry a doggie pack
with his food and supplies.
Perhaps Fullmer’s biggest
challenge will be carrying on
despite her diagnosis of trigeminal neuralgia, a chronic pain
condition causing excruciating
pain in the face and head,
Her doctor will be on call in
case of emergencies, as well as a
veterinarian for Ollie.
Other challenges will be
weathering storms; crossing
high-rise, rapid-flowing streams;
and exhaustion for both her and
her companion. She plays to take
a full rest day each week.
In addition to sheltering
animals, Fullmer Menagerie
Animal Rescue offers a summer
volunteer program where youth
walk dogs, shadow vets and
participate in health fairs.
Chairman of the volunteer
program is Koal Anderson, who
will turn 14 on Friday, while the

Family Fun
Answers:
ARIES (March 21 to April 19) Temper your typical Aries
urge to charge into a situation and demand answers. Instead,
let the Lamb’s gentler self emerge to deal with a problem that
requires delicacy.
TAURUS (April 20 to May 20)You are aware of what’s going
on, so continue to stand by your earlier decision, no matter
how persuasive the counter-arguments might be. Money
pressures will soon ease.
GEMINI (May 21 to June 20) By all means, have fun and
enjoy your newly expanded social life. But don’t forget that
some people are depending on you to keep promises that are
very important to them.
CANCER (June 21 to July 22) You need to wait patiently
for an answer to a workplace problem and not push for a
decision. Remember: Time is on your side. A financial matter
needs closer attention.
LEO (July 23 to August 22) You now have information
that can influence that decision you planned to make. But
the clever Cat will consult a trusted friend or family member
before making a major move.
VIRGO (August 23 to September 22) Good news: You’re
finding that more doors are opening for you to show what
you can do, and you don’t even have to knock very hard to
get the attention you’re seeking.
LIBRA (September 23 to October 22) Your gift for creating
order out of chaos will help you deal with a sudden rush of
responsibilities that would threaten someone less able to
balance his or her priorities.
SCORPIO (October 23 to November 21) Congratulations.
Your energy levels are coming right back up to normal -- just
in time to help you tackle some worthwhile challenges and
make some important choices.
SAGITTARIUS (November 22 to December 21) The sage
Sagittarian should demand a full explanation of inconsistencies that might be cropping up in what had seemed to be a
straightforward deal.
CAPRICORN (December 22 to January 19) A conflict between obligations to family and to the job can create stressful
problems. Best advice: Balance your dual priorities so that one
doesn’t outweigh the other.
AQUARIUS (January 20 to February 18) Don’t guess,
speculate or gossip about that so-called mystery situation
at the workplace. Bide your time. An explanation will be
forthcoming very soon.
PISCES (February 19 to March 20) Boredom might be
creeping in and causing you to lose interest in a repeat project.
Deal with it by flipping over your usual routine and finding a
new way to do an old task.
BORN THIS WEEK: You can warm the coldest heart with
your lyrical voice and bright smile. You find yourself at home,
wherever you are.
