Show Page 4 The Ogden Valley news Volume XXV Issue X June 15, 2019 Art Exhibit @ the Ogden Valley Branch Library The Ogden Valley Library in Huntsville is currently hosting, thru June 28, and exhibit showcasing the artwork of artist Andrew Hyder Exhibit. Hyder states, “I have been interested in mechanical forms of art for a long time. As a teenage in Colorado, I studied analog photography. While living in San Diego, I handmade surfboards, and designed and manufactured bodywork for motorcycles. “After moving to Ogden in 2010 to attend Weber State, my love for photography grew when I discovered new formats and machines. I look for new ways to capture the landscapes around me and the people I share my life with.” Visit the Weber County Library, Ogden Valley Branch, to view Hyder’s artwork.

The free celebration of the county’s trail network takes place Saturday, June 22, 2019 beginning with a wide variety of organized trail activities from 8:00 a.m. to noon. The public can also enjoy a Trailfest Festival and Expo at the Ogden Amphitheater from 9:00 a.m. to 1:30 p.m. “In 2018, more than 1,000 community members hiked, biked, or ran a section of the newly-completed Centennial Trail, and more than 500 people enjoyed the community party after,” said Mark Benigni, executive director of Weber Pathways. “We hope to double participation this year, now that the event is more widely known. No matter your age or ability, we have many opportunities for everyone to get out and enjoy the beautiful trail system.” Families can enjoy the organized activities along the Centennial Trail, including a muddy trail demonstration, trail etiquette, free tubing on the Ogden River, science learning projects, digging for “fossils,” making a plaster cast near Eccles Dinosaur Park, and more. Some of the trails are narrow dirt paths and others are wider and paved. Participants can get their TrailFest Passports stamped at the hosted trail segments and then bring their passports to the TrailFest Expo and Festival for a chance to win great prizes. The Festival and Expo will feature community organization booths, great food and beverages, and healthy family-oriented activities such as trampolines. Also available to festivalgoers is the Farmers Market, which will be going on in the vicinity that morning. The Centennial Trail is officially designated as the loop formed by the Bonneville Shoreline, Ogden River Parkway, and Weber River Parkway trails. This beautiful trail is unique to the community, spanning 27 miles while passing through the Weber County communities of Ogden, South Ogden, Uintah, Riverdale, West Haven, and Marriott-Slaterville. Popular with families, recreationalists, and commuters alike, the Centennial Trail has something for everyone, making it the ideal venue for celebrating the community’s unparalleled access to trails.
