Show r Volunteers help with Parley's festival 1 K ''- T , , y SV f vir!'"" y Cr v6- Ui r v 1 Local realtor, Bill Kranstover, shows some of the finer points of working with pastels to onlook-ing onlook-ing students. The Parley's Park Elementary Ele-mentary School will hold an open house next Thursday, April 23, to allow the public to participate in the school's month-long arts festival. Individual classrooms will be open beginning at 5:30 p.m. for the display of art projects. Then, at 7 p.m., a performance will be put on by the mime group being taught by artist-in-residence Jerry Gardner. The arts festival program, begun at the Marsac Elementary Ele-mentary School, is designed to expose the students to every conceivable facet of the arts, from dramatics to decoupage, from pinatas to pastels. Each student was given a choice from the wide range of subjects, then assigned to a class for the duration of the program. Then, one day each week, about 40 volunteer volun-teer teachers from the community com-munity have been donating their expertise to teach the classes. Some of the volunteers are well known locally for their involvement in the arts. Others are more familiar as realtors, dental assistants, housewives... There is even a school board president on the list. Of all the classes offered, the most popular has been the pantomime course taught by Teri Gomes and Jerry Gardner. Gardner is a professional mime, whose expertise is on loan to the students for two weeks through the artists-in-schools program funded in part by the Utah Arts Council. Coun-cil. He currently is giving lecture-demonstrations in classes throughout the school, as well as working with his core group in preparation pre-paration for next Thursday's performance. Gardner said the performance perfor-mance would involve simple skits such as "prisoner in the box," but that many of the selections would be left up to his students. "My idea is not to tell them what to do, but to create the challenge." Gardner first was exposed to mime through the American Ameri-can Mime Theatre in New York City. He became an apprentice to two professional profes-sional mimes in Denver in 1977, then cooperated with them in the formation of the Amalgamated Mime company. com-pany. He came to Salt Lake City last August to conduct a workshop with local mime artist Greg Goldston. He was invited to return to Utah following the workshop, and now is working as an independent inde-pendent mime. Gardner has performed at Hill Air Force Base and at the Layton Hills Mall. He also will be seen on upcoming upcom-ing segments of "PM Magazine" Maga-zine" and "Hotel Balderdash." Balder-dash."

April showers may mean early resort closing Just because Resort Mountain Moun-tain Manager Phil Jones said Tuesday that he'd just as soon not see any more snow fall this year, don't label him a turncoat. "If we got three feet of snow with some cold weather, wea-ther, that would be great," he said. "But we don't need a few inches at this point it would take a few days to corn up, and right now, t6e corn skiing is really good." Unfortunately, it was raining rain-ing Wednesday morning, and that sort of precipitation was decidedly low on Jones' wish list. But depending on the snow conditions and the number of diehard skiers hitching rides up the chair-lifts, chair-lifts, the Resort will stay open at least through Easter. Whether or not it makes it to its scheduled closing date of May 3 is literally up in the air. "Right now the snow is good and corny, and the skiing is great," Jones said. "We'll just have to see how the snow holds up, and how many people we get up here to see if we'll go to the announced closing day." Jones said about 1,500 skiers still are clambering clamber-ing to make tracks on the slopes daily. The First Time, Three Kings, Pay Day and Crescent chairlifts have been closed for-the season,-and season,-and the Ski Team (Victoria Station) lift is operating on a need basis only. But the gondola is running, and skiers are heading for the upper reaches of the mountain moun-tain to catch the peak skiing from mid-morning to early afternoon. Heading down to the bottom bot-tom may require a little fancy footwork, but Jones said the majority of runs still are open. You do have to remove your skis at the Ski Team chairlif t and walk to the plaza, however. With summer approaching, approach-ing, it's hard to think about next ski season, but Jones did mention a few of the planned additions and improvements. im-provements. Although no new chairlifts will be constructed, con-structed, new runs will be cut off the Mother Lode and Ski Team chairlifts. The Resort's snowmaking capability cap-ability will be doubled with the addition of equipment on Parley's Park, Sunnyside, the Meadow, the road to Bonanza, and around the Summit House. In addition, there will be some widening of runs and glading done over the summer. The Resort plans to charge $18 for a day pass next year. No rates were available on season passes. m it mmm The Newspaper Thursday, April 16, 1981 Page All ESIGN COALITION, PARK CITY, UTAR SPRING SALE 30 TO 50 OFF SALE CONTINUES APRIL 16, 17 AND 18 Furniture, Clocks, Lamps, Graphics, Pillows, Selected Gift Items.
