The two to three acre fire brought quite a blaze to the hillside. The fire department watched over the fire throughout through-out the night and mop up efforts continued throughout the day on Tuesday. Hales and a crew from the Forest Service were in the area Tuesday morning to make sure the fire was contained. The Binghams arrived home just after the fire began and the fire trucks were on their way. They saw a circle of fire which was actually a ring of fire with no wind on a peaceful night. The fire started up by the clay pit and moved onto the Bob Bingham property They were worried about the barn and they were thankful the fireman got there as soon as they did. The cause of the fire is believed to be man made. The Forest Service is planning to offer a reward for information leading to possible arrest or conviction of the person or persons per-sons involved. h The Heritage Festival in September will have a musical jPh as -country singers McCoslyn and Paye will perform per-form in the Pleasant Grove Downtown Park. , Joel McCoslyn and Kevin ; Paye gained their musical , experience in the contemporary Christian arena, selling over a ( million records as the group t Afterglow. , "They said they're excited to come perform for their hometown," home-town," said Jeanne Holdaway, Heritage Festival organizer. '"We are fortunate to have them come. I'm excited they'll be There. It should be a nice finale ."to the Heritage Festival." . ' The concert will be held : Saturday, Sept. 16, beginning .at 6 p.m. Holdaway said those who attend the concert should bring blankets and chairs to sit on. McCoslyn and Paye recently released a new country CD entitled No Love Lost. The duo traveled to Nashville last summer sum-mer to work with some of the best songwriters, musicians, and studios in country music today. As Afterglow, they have recorded 17 albums and plan to release a collection o new original songs in 2001. 'We're not giving up Afterglow or Christian music," said Paye. "We've just always loved country coun-try music too, and this project has allowed us to express ourselves our-selves in different ways." Harmonizing comes naturally natural-ly to the two men, who first started singing together as juniors at Pleasant Grove High School. They graduated in 1979 and became Afterglow in 1980. -15 From Front Page we're tickled," said Mayor Ed Sanderson. Ayre also agreed that the city wouldn't take the full six months. "We hope to be able to do it in two to three months. We've already used six months and we don't want to drag it out too long." Harmer said the additional few months will give the city "time to do a better job. We can get the zoning in place to get what we want in that area." At many of the public meetings meet-ings held earlier, there were many concerns voiced by residents resi-dents in the area near the new interchange. Ayre said "Folks expressed concerns, we want to address those concerns. We will see what to can do to accommodate accommo-date where people live and the property they own. "There were legitimate concerns con-cerns raised and we don't want to move hastily forward. We will look at the concerns," Ayre said. There will be more meetings scheduled with property owners own-ers in the future and Ayre said they may form sub-committees consisting of council members as well as planning commission members.

That evening a fast galloping gallop-ing horse and rider came quickly quick-ly into camp and reined up his horse. He dismounted and retrieved a large sack of mail and began calling out names of all receiving mail. Brad and Linda Green were in charge of the food. Several ward members helped construct con-struct 43 wooden stools with donated materials to be used on the youth activity. As the group finished their supper and gathered gath-ered in the circle, a stranger dressed in full length black coat with black hair down to his waist and a full beard came to the center of the fire ring and introduced himself as one who portrayed Porter Rockwell, bodyguard to Joseph and Brigham Young. He told the story of his conversion and friendship with Joseph Smith. During the second day, the group began an eight mile trek with most of the trek on a dirt road. The group arrived at Sweetwater River where a bridge was constructed by the Second Rescue Effort in 1992. Tyran Ormand gave a talk on the significance of the crossing and the efforts of the four young men who helped carry people across the Sweetwater in October of 1856. About 100 feet upstream from the bridge was a section of the river bank that was lower and permitted easy entry for handcarts and people to cross the river. Dana Facemeyer gathered all together togeth-er and spoke about the bravery and compassion of the four young men who helped carry the pioneers across the river. Then the youth reenacted the Sweetwater River crossing as they carried many across. Next, the handcarts were drawn Later in the day, they boarded board-ed the bus to drive to Rock Creek a site of the Willie Rescue Party- Rck Creek was also the site where 450 young people from Layton, Utah were sleeping in their sleeping has under the stars. A guest speaker, speak-er, Bishop Huff, from Lander, Wyoming arrived to tell about experiences with the Willie people peo-ple the past 20 years. They met at the site where 13 pioneers died and were buried in a common com-mon grave. Each of the youth who had the name of one of the 13 came forward and read their pioneer story The next day they traveled to Farson for games and treats and then on to Lyman Wyoming and the local KOA camp where they were excited to be able to take a shower and swim in the swimming pool. Then they were entertained at the home of a former Pleasant Grove resident, Steven Phillips and his wife, Vonda. The next day they wound their way down Emigration Canyon and as they looked down on Salt Lake Valley, they spontaneously began singing, "How Great Thou Art!" The canyon ended at the "This Is the Place Monument." There they stopped to visit and read monuments and look over the valley. Soon they arrived home with an appreciation of their ancestors and a love of their home. The Bishopric, Bishop Sterling Calabio, Steve Whitehouse and Roger Nielson also accompanied the youth on the trek. 12-week sessions will begin the week of September 11 using the Gordon music learning theory.
