Next month, the superintendents superinten-dents of the North and South Summit School Districts will meet in Park City with Assistant Park City Superintendent Burke Jolley. The reason? Jolley wants to talk about the feasibility of redrawing re-drawing school district boundaries. bound-aries. "There are a couple of areas in greater Summit County where kids are going to school in the district dis-trict that's not necessarily the closest clos-est to them,'" Jolley said. He explained he called the meeting "to see if we can reach some sort of compromise." Jolley is not sure when the three school district boundaries were first drawn. He suspects it may be as long as the turn of the century or 1920. "We get a lot of kids requesting to go to school in Park City," Jolley said. Three of the areas whose boundaries might be affected are the Red Hawk Ranch development, develop-ment, Tollgate Canyon, and the George Johnson property located east of U.S. 40 Possible boundary changes between South Summit and Wasatch School Districts would not have any affect on Park City's boundaries, according to Jolley. Play vs sleeping in The non-denominational group Young Life is taking a new approach to the Utah Education Association Conference weekend, which is coming up Sept. 26 and 27. The group, lead by Parkite Roger Harlan, is offering school children from 3rd to 5th grades a chance to attend a camp rather than simply have two days vacation vaca-tion from school. Harlan has adapted the values embraced by Young Life U create the group Sports Life for younger children. "We are an organization that attempts to provide a sports- or recreation-related activity in the most constructive manner possible," possi-ble," Harlan said. But he explained the group makes a point behind the activity. "We incorporate incorpo-rate ideas from the historic Judeo-Christian Judeo-Christian faith," he said. What that means is that the group leader will take a concept connected to the activity and link it to a biblical principal. "We keep it non-denominational," non-denominational," Harlan said. He explained the principals that are discussed apply across the board to biblically-based faiths. Harlan explained the students are not overwhelmed with discussions, discus-sions, though. "The most we can get away with is about eight minutes min-utes before their attention starts wandering," he said. "We keep it fun." Harlan said the Sports Life group will use an old riding stable in Henefer as its "base camp." Excursions and activities will be directed from that point. Among the excursions the group will take are a block of time at a climbing facility, visiting the Sports Park in Salt Lake City, riding blocks of ice down hills, opposing 'paint ball' teams and night-time games of capture the flag. "We're having parents pick their children up Saturday so they can spend Sunday with the families fami-lies and catch up on sleep," Harlan said. More information is available from Harlan at 649-2624.

This time, the problem - actually, actual-ly, multiple problems that include lead tailings - has delayed construction con-struction of the building by about four weeks. The twin problems were the discovery of peat moss, then the realization that the water table was a lot higher than originally origi-nally realized. Architect Gary Acord of Design West Construction said his contractors dug into a five-feet-deep layer of peat moss. After they had worked their way through the soft material, the building basement base-ment they had excavated began filling up with water. The building site is at the east end of school district-owned property that runs along the north side of Kearns Boulevard. "Treasure Mountain Middle School was originally a swamp," Acord said. "It was a wetland that was filled in in 1983. Acord said the excavation had to be dug deeper than originally planned, then partially filled with gravel that covered perforated pipe designed to drain water into the nearby stream. "We had to redesign the footings foot-ings because of the different soil type," Acord said. The school district loses its current cur-rent facility later this year. If that is not insult enough, the final straw came after the health department found evidence of lead tailings at the proposed facility. facil-ity. The discovery of lead earlier this summer at the Park City High School 'north 40' playing fields site necessitated tons of topsoil being trucked in to cover the rock to EPA specs. "This whole area is lead tailings," tail-ings," Acord said. P""" f5 (let SCiSO iii FREE clothing and accessories when von hnv :i new I'ol.'iris XLT RMK liefore Scptemler JO'1.'
