May Fditor The County Landfill will NOT accept tires at no charg through June 28 2001 Why do always cry at the elschool May Day program? Well of course one reason is that my children are in it and I could be compared to the mother in the musical "The Music Man" who when she sees her son in the band for the first time cries "That's my boy!" But there are other reasons because find myself teary eyed during numbers which my children are not in Happy tears also come from seeing a lot of cute kids having fun dancing to fun music and seeing all those dedicated teachers out there swaying and moving to help the performing kids remember the dance they've been ementary The notification sent to Gunnison City as well as the Gunnison Valley News was ment for Sevier County customers of White's Sanitation only The Sanpete County Landfill is not accepting tires at no charge We regret the confusion working on for weeks and seeing the stands filled with supportive parents — many who left work to be there and being grateful that our school is so great and keeps programs like this alive Mpy Day is reality check day for me "Wow my children are only going to have one more week with this teacher Wow another year has gone by and look at what they have accomplished learning so much and growing so big and becoming so much more responsible" May Day is a day for me to reflect but also for me to look forward and welcome the future Here comes summer Let's have some fun! So if you see me with wet eyes next time you'll understand won't you?
