Olsen The first full week in May 2001 has been set aside as Utah Prehistory and Heritage Week. Pleasant Grove has a great heritage of pioneer history to commemorate. Three events will kick off the week. First will be the unveiling unveil-ing of the restored fire department's hose cart house. A short ceremony will take place this Saturday, May 5 at 2 p.m. City firefighters have worked for a year, on their own time and at their own expense, to bring to life the original building, which housed the first city volunteer volun-teer fire department's hand-pulled hand-pulled hose cart, the only firefighting equipment early in the century.
