"Visiting the refuge is a fun activity, but it's also revitalizing," Trout explained. "This is needed so much now. Our youngest generation gen-eration is facing lifestyle changes that are not healthy; the electronic elec-tronic era has detached us from the natural world." Trout said research has indicated that alienation and isolation from nature is associated associ-ated with a host of physical and mental problems. "I would even suggest that the spiritual side of things is suffering," he said. "For those of us who have been immersed in this project, an important part of the legacy we hope to leave is giving those who come here a higher quality of life and increased physical and mental health. That's the mission," he added. The Education Center has Rewind Continued from Page 6 the Cavemen get back into the game. Spencer had three hits and two RBI to lead American Fork.

American Fork coach Jarod Ingersoll said, "We did a good job on offense. Our defense let us down, though. We played two games at Cal State Fullerton, one at El Dorado High, and one at a Champions field. "The schools we played included in-cluded FJ Dorado (Calif.), Boca Rot an, (Fla.), Long Beach Wilson Wil-son (Calif.), and Cottonwood (Utah).

The building also houses the Refuge administrative offices, and many year-round events are being planned to make use of all the new facilities. The road to the Refuge proper is still mostly dirt and is rough in spots, but is usable by ordinary passenger vehicles. Checklists and informative brochures bro-chures are available at a kiosk located along the road close to the auto tour route. Visitors need to go slow, not only to watch for inevitable potholes but also to scan the roadside for birds and other wildlife. The road to the Refuge is often as good for viewing as the Refuge itself. Parts of the road are underwater under-water during the peak of the spring runoff, so visitors should check ahead during those times. Further road improvements, including paving, are on the schedule for next year. For more information, call 435) 723-5887 or check out the VS.

"To compete and win against regional re-gional and state all-star teams is a compliment to these young men." COPY |
