Show Millard County Progress, Fillmore, Utah 84631 Friday, August 18, 1978 Page Two Our Town MILLARD COUNTY PROGRESS Published Every Friday at Fillmore, Utah 84631 By Progress Printing Company Publisher Susan B. Dutson Jane Wilson FILLMORE by STELLA Reporter DAY Saturday evening when we saw the last performance of the Pageant. "Kanosh", I witnessed the fulfillment of a dream which a group of people had years ago when the City first purchased the land for this new park. The Garden Club had called for volunteers to help clear and level the ground before putting in the sprinkling system, preparitory to planting grass. A group of us talked of the "generation gap" which was the topic at that time, and we agreed that if we could build an amphitheatre where all ages could put on programs together, there would be no "Generation Gap. Mayor McBride was there and told us there was no money in the treasury for developing the Park at that time, but each group in town could help to get the funds, if we all had some definite objective for earning the money. The Garden Club began a cleanup program and entered every contest possible. We won many first places in the state, by entering the Sears Roebuck Beautification Program, the Shell Oil program and the Kellog Contests. The Fine Arts Gub also began entering contests and finally we two clubs pooled some of our winnnings and purchased $750.00 worth of shrubs to plant around the Big sign in the Park, making the sign much more attractive. However, the weeds grew so fast that no park attendant could keep them dug. The Garden Gub members and other volunteers have kept the weeds dug since the planting. Although this has been a real task, it as also given us a greater interest in the Park, and I for one am happy we have had this task to do. as it hasn't hurt one of us and has given us a much greater insight into the possibilities for the future of the Park. Those who have been down at the Park and talked with people from nearly every State in the Union have heard the comments such as "How did a little town like Fillmore ever have foresight enough to build a priceless Park?" Many of them say their towns and cities, which are five to twenty times the size of Fillmore, have no such parks, nor is there any chance of getting the land for such a park now. We can all be so thankful that we had City Officials with the foresight to purchase the land when they did. and develop it as we get the funds, a little at a time. To me it is our greatest asset, because it provides a place where all of the people can have the opportunity to help in some way. We each one can add our small part to help make this Park more valuable. Although many people doubted that we could ever produce such a Pageant as "Kanosh" there were enough who believed we could do it, to finally prove what we can be done if everyone will do his part. When 1 think of the hundreds of people who have had at least a small part in the success of this event. I feel such a sense of gratitude, for all of the wonderful people who live in this part of God's vineyard. When we first began planning this event, we wondered about the horses. As I watched those beautiful horses come down those paths and on the stage. thought, "Could anything be done more perfectly?" Melvin Turner, Gene Ashby and those who trained those horses prove to us how valuable well trained horses can be. And what is more, during the fighting scenes, those horses which were standing in the wings, did not even flinch or cause any disturbance whatever. Wc sat near the Dallin Nielsen choir and enjoyed each number, not only then but we are still enjoying them in our minds. Cathryn Nielsen is an absolute marvel. We watched her play each number perfectly even in the dark, as the flash light did not flash so well, but Cathryn acted as if everything were perfectly normal. Each person who had any part in making this big undertaking such a success has my deep felt thanks. It went off just perfectly, in spite on the little rain and wind for a few minutes. The weather soon settled and we were happy to be able to finish the play. Over 100 people were in the cast and they ranged from 80 years old to a baby less than one year. Each put his heart and soul into his pan and the audience sensed the sincerity of each actor, and aren't we all put his hean and soul into his pan and the audience sensed the sincerity of each actor, and arent we all happy that we have such a talented Director as Kirby Giles. Now he and his wife have built a lovely home here, we arc hoping it means for always. Each one of us should be thinking of other events which we can stage in the Amphitheatre where every person who wishes to can have a chance to develop the talents with which each of us is so bountifully blessed.

Friday night. Nine Quartettes Completed; 7 Lady quartetts and 2 men's. First place went to a Lady's quartette consisting of Arvctta Ntckle, Choral Clark, Kathy Smith, and Verla Jenson. The group sang. "Ma. He's Makin' Eyes At Me." and from start to finish, they gave the audience a treat in harmony, blend and balance, and a very secure stage presence. They will represent Millard County at the State Fair Competition in Sept. Second place also went to a Lady's Quartette, from the Fillmore Area, this group involved Dawn Olson. Iris Dutson, LaVoy Martin and Joyce Dcardon. They chose to sing. "Beauty Shop Quartette," it had nice voice interpretation and showy costumes but lacked the balance and blend of true barbershop. Third place was given to Anna Susie Memmott, Mac Quarnbrrg, Rosa Lee Robins and Joyce Monroe, who sang, "Kentucky Babe, and it was a nice blend of harmony, but needed a little variation in delivery.

Both of these quartettes were very good, and had a very nice balance, but did not take full advantage of the microphone, so could not be heard in all the 4 parts and appeared to be rather til at ease. We hope that this festwal w til just be the beginning of competition at our county fair, for each year will be better and competition greater. Judging the event were.
