Orem-Geneva Times- -Wednesday June29, 1988 Page 8 Cloggers to converge on valley O-GT closed for holiday Orem-Geneva Times will be closed clos-ed Monday, due to July 4th holiday. Deadline for news articles to be in the July 6th issue is Friday, July 1, at 1 p.m. Orem school teacher Dennis Cobia was introduced to clogging 23 years ago as a college folk dancer and he hasn't been able to stop his heels from stomping since then. He's introduced thousands to the art of clogging, most notably through his classes and at the annual National Cloggers and Dance Festival at the SCERA Shell amphitheater in Orem. The 12th consecutive festival is scheduled this year for June 29 and 30 at 5;30 and 8 p.m., July 1 at 8 p.m. (with 7 p.m. pre-show) and July 4 at 7 p.m. Tickets are available at the SCERA Showhouse and will be available at the gate. Adults are $3.50 and children under 16 will be admitted admit-ted at no charge. More than 225 dancers, including two national championship teams-the teams-the Hawkins County Hoedowns from Tennesee and the Bluegrass Express Champions from Kentucky-will perform. per-form. It is one of 25 events in America's Freedom Festival in Provo, Pro-vo, and a dance extravaganza seen each year by several thousand people. Many of the performers will be young, in part because of Cobia's commitment to providing cultural experiences ex-periences for youth. He established a clogging program for his sixth graders in 1970, which made it the first children's clogging group west of the Mississippi. Other Utah communities com-munities followed, and now there are several youth teams throughout the West. Teams will come from Tennessee, Ten-nessee, Kentucky, Idaho, Wyoming, Arizona, Nevada, California and Utah. In addition to the cloggers, Cobia is introducing two new Utah singers to the Shell ; Stephanie Kemp and Mi-quelle Mi-quelle Maag. Additional variety will be provided some of the evenings when Center Stage Dance Studios will feature some of their top jazz, tap and ballet performers. "Clogging has a big history in the South, and you'll see how excellent I Hawkins County Cloggers will be featured at Freedom Festival. From left to right, bottom are: Heather Jones, Misty Carter, Christy Carter, Chastity Nell, Shannon Glass, Bobby Revis, March Hackney, Cindy Clevinger, Stephanie Clinebell, Sherry Glass, and Wayne Norman. they are by the southern teams represented at the Shell," says Cobia. "One thing bothers these guest teams, though. They think they should have had the market cornered on hospitali ty, and are surprised that we are so friendly in Utah. Every year I hear them say, in their own charming way, 'It's just an everyday chore for y'all to be so nice'." "Fiddler on the Roof" Provo Community Theatre's pro-. duction of "Fiddler on the Roof" will open June 30 and play July 1, and 4-9. This show was chosen because of its . wide audience appeal and promises to be something that the whole family will want to see. Directed by Chris H. Brower, Timpview High School's Drama teacher, and veteran actor himself, Fiddler has drawn talent from all over the country. Several Orem residents are in the cast. The Richard G. Wilkins family has made this a family event. Richard is playing play-ing Tevye, Melany is the matchmaker, mat-chmaker, Yente, and their 3 children are in the chorus. Colleen Curran is playing Golde, Larry Beaudin is Motel, the tailor, and several other Oremites are in the chorus. Introducing The GUARDIAN PLAN program I'd like to tell you why so many caring people have said "Itfes" to this funeral prearrangement program. I once asked John, our GUARDIAN PLAN representative, why he chose his calling. He answered, "Because I believe in it. Because I know first hand, how it helps families." I found out that John is not alone. He is one of hundreds of compassionate and dedicated dedi-cated men and women who represent the GUARDIAN PLAN program throughout the United States and Canada. I'd like to tell you more about a funeral prearrangement program that attracts people of the caliber of John and his associates to serve you. The full title of the program is the GUARDIAN PLAN prearranged funeral program. It's funded by life insurance policies and annuity contracts. Unlike trust funded funeral prearrangement plans, the GUARDIAN PLAN program isbackedby insurance. That's a big difference. It means once you pay the f rst premium, you're covered for the full cost of the funeral services you select . And the insurance proceeds from the GUARDIAN PLAN program are tax-free. Another feature of the GUARDIAN PLAN program that you won't find in any other prearranged funeral plan is something the GUARDIAN PLAN people call Transferability. Let's say you make your GUARDIAN PLAN funeral prearrangement whereyou live now and later move to another part of the country. No problem. You are guar- . . Li v. ;r anteed that services equal in every way to those you selected in the first place will be provided through the GUARDIAN PLAN program wherever you move, and at no increase in the original cost. Now, I think that's a very important benefit. ' There's a lot more to learn.
