Children love the hands-on art project at each event, and their parents like to get involved too. Monday, Mar. 5, at 6 p.m. in the next Community & Family Night Youth, parents and leaders talk about what kids can do in the community What do our kids want in our community? - Indoor soccer would be great! - Why don't we have a speech and debate team? - How about a bowling alley? - Wish the community pool was up to date... These are just a few of the suggestions voiced by the kids who attended the recent Youthnet PTA Community Forum. The young people and their parents enjoyed hearing hear-ing from three community members who have invested in-vested the time and energy to help kids be successful: Kevin Scholz, Alan Curtis and Dan Shelley. Scholz, chairman of Youthnet, reminded the young people in the audience audi-ence that they are just as much citizens of Springville Spring-ville and Mapleton as their parents. We need kids to get involved, to look for what they can give, rather than what they can get. Curtis, recently retired director of Springville Parks and Recreation, talked about how important impor-tant work and attitude are for success. He asked the kids to consider the idea that "work equals talent." "If we're willing to work, we'll find success," said Curtis. He also suggested that success is determined "not by your circumstances, circumstanc-es, but by your attitude." Shelley, the leader of Youthnet's Youth Committee, Commit-tee, invited kids to be "part of the solution." He asked the kids to imagine a community com-munity where thre was a free activity planned by and for kids every month-- month-- The youth committee is a great way to get involved and make a difference. Volunteers are welcome to help on it. To volunteer, to become a partner, or to get more information about Youth-net Youth-net and community forums, fo-rums, visit youthnetutah. org. Stay safe by keeping outside of electrical substations Most peple realize the potential danger of power lines and other electrical equipment and wouldn't knowingly get too close; but occasionally there are those who cross locked gated, gat-ed, fences or walls and gain access to substations. Substations Sub-stations and switchyards serve an essential purpose in delivering electricity to homes and businesses, but pose a serious safety risk to unauthorized trespassers. anil!? i n On any 1 f l ' S 1 new r-i-" Aurora ' ' Bernina 440 J Purchase!

"Parents can help ensure the safety of their children and family members by educating ed-ucating them on the importance impor-tance of staying outside of neighborhood substations and away from all potentially poten-tially hazardous electrical equipment." Substations are facilities where electricity is generally gener-ally transferred from transmission trans-mission lines to local distribution distri-bution lines that extend out into neighborhoods. Security Secu-rity measures and warning signs are in place to keep the public from entering substations, but safeguards are not always foolproof and have been bypassed in some instances. Many substations are located lo-cated in residential areas and barriers can vary in appearance, with some facilities fa-cilities surrounded by fencing fenc-ing and others enclosed by walls. Whether highly visible visi-ble or not, equipment inside substations is extremely hazardous and kept locked and out of reach for good reason. Rocky Mountain Power urges parents to remind children of the importance of staying outside of substations substa-tions and away from other electrical equipment such as pad-mounted transformers (four-foot tall green metal boxes), electric meters and power lines. 1 ifviBj.tevWi. -vu 1 'i - i i mi i |
