After having completed our second year as chairmen, chair-men, we thought that it would get easier, not so as some of the committee had to step down due to circumstances circum-stances beyond their control. We would like to thank the different chairmen that managed man-aged each event. Thanks to Keri Gordon and the Youth City Council for taking care of the Fun-A-Rama and the Youth Day event. A very special thanks goes out to Mandy Hamilton for stepping in to run the parade as we lost our last year's chairman in April. Mandy said she wanted to get involved in-volved in the community, so we gave her a complete baptism bap-tism by handing the parade over to her. Two newcomers to this year's committee were Mar-cie Mar-cie Clark, who handled the balloon festival, and Shaun Orton, who took care of organizing or-ganizing the booths downtown down-town on the park and keeping keep-ing all the complaints to a minimum. Thanks to both who had no previous experience experi-ence with Art City Days. Brain Tobler deserves a huge hand of thanks as this was his last year of helping with the City Band Concert, because of his retirement from SHS. Doc has helped organize this event since its inception years ago. Without Jessica Weiss and Amanda Toler the Children's Art Festival would not happen hap-pen each year. It is always one of the most attended events of Art City Days.

A highlight for us was the many marching bands, especially Springville High School's own wonderful wonder-ful band. Many think of Springville as the Art City because of the visual arts. Butsince we moved to the Springville-Mapleton Springville-Mapleton area six years ago, our family has been so impressed im-pressed by the area's rich musical culture. Coir children have had many high-quality musical opportunities. We have thoroughly enjoyed musical mu-sical performances all the way from our elementary schools to the many adult community performing groups. Springville High's music groups are legend, from the choral groups, to the band with its award case full of trophies, to the orchestra that placed third in national Enter at your own risk Editor: In an effort to support the "Arts and Community" here in Springville, I, my wife, and 9 year old Grandson went to the play Noises Off, preformed by the Springville playhouse. As we entered to pay our admission we were greeted by two ladies . They explained to us this was a great family show that was very entertaining and funny. We went in and found a seat and were excited excit-ed for the show to start. Just before the show began, a woman stood and gave an opening prayer, which we thought were a great start. Once the show began we were first surprised that a cast member brought out a bottle of Rum and Vodka (what ever it was) to go with the wine glasses on the stage. Soon after there were some very startling sexual comments made. Insinuating having sex in the bathroom and bedroom. Not long after this hap Mapleton Police report Mapleton Police arrested Harry B.

The Nebo Performing Perform-ing Arts Council has been formed to do just that: support sup-port and protect the arts in the Nebo School District. Across the nation, arts programs pro-grams are being cut at a rapid rate. In our own school district, with the upcoming consolidation of 6th grade back into elementary schools, the school board has some very tough decisions to make about the current 6th grade music programs. As members of the Nebo Performing Arts Council, we support having musical training train-ing in all elementary schools in Nebo School District. We also support continuing instrumental instrumen-tal instruction in the 6th grade. We invite all lovers of the arts to join us.

Before long they too followed suite making similar comments. As this was unfolding the first couple burst from the bedroom, his clothes messy and her with no clothes on, only wearing a black bra and underwear. At this point we grabbed our Grandson and left. He was very confused as to why they would say an opening prayer and the perform these kind of things. That I can say is hard to anyone let alone a nine year old. I have sought out a refund and was told that you enter at your own risk. There are a lot of good plays out there BUT be cautious cau-tious as to what you are taking tak-ing your family too. Once the material has been viewed it can not be erased and they do not want to refund your money. As people peo-ple of the community, search out what you may view whether at the movie theater or local playhouse. Brian Campbell Springville Armed rfthlifw !
