Show Page September 30, 201 EN 8-EVEN BOULDER CTOBER WO SHOPS STARRY SKIES Hogsback Heritage/Cliff Notes Writing Workshop Award winning Nevada poet Gailmarie Pahmeier will visit Boulder as a part of the Cliff Notes/Hogsback Heritage Writing Workshop, October 8-10. Pahmeier will teach the poetry sections of the workshop, while local writer Dianne Oberhansly covers fiction, and former Utah Poet Laureate David Lee tunes up Hogsback Heritage writers for this year's theme, "Artifacts." Friday and Saturday nights will feature these three writers in free public readings. Anyone with a passion for words, a story to tell or a desire for self-expression is invited to attend. Full workshop schedule and details can be found at www.boulderheritage.org Voicing the Rhythm of the hand' A Multi-Age, Multi-Experience Creation Billy Raaen and Grace Totherow are combining their multiple talents in a workshop series, "Voicing the Rhythm of the Land." It will offer children, teens, and adults a unique, creative extravaganza of writing, story-telling, movement, rhythm, and rattle-making. Each workshop will target one of the three age groups, scheduled throughout October. The month of exploration z„tIp5ki I 01k culminates with a community trrAci,,,E; son gs sharing and campfire celebra19ric: free tion of the land and people, past and present, of Boulder. In Grace's words: "Rhythm sessions and percussive instrument-making classes are woven into the curriculum. Site-specific writing, group-building games, rhythm circles, walks in the wild, and exercises to enhance perception through all the senses will help to generate material that participants will craft into stories, songs, and poems to be shared with the greater community. These modes of expression rekindle the oral tradition and experiential wisdom in a modern world accustomed to passive entertainment. This project can open creative pathways to people who never before considered themselves artists. It can empower communication, confidence, relationships between generations and genders, awareness of environment, and the importance of collaboration in a small community." "Voicing the Rhythm of the Land" is supported in part by the Utah Division of Arts and Museums, with funding from the State of Utah. Matching assistance is provided from Boulder Community Alliance and Red House Farm. Scheduling details are forthcoming.

Ah but the game of the year was Friday at Piute. It was Pink night and the arena was filled with fans from both sides. It was volleyball at its best, a real slug fest; both teams were at very competitive. In the first game Piute had an 18 to 15 lead when Coach Norris called time out and the Ladies rallied to a 25-21 victory. In the second set the Lady Birds got off to a 13 to 2 lead and never lost it for a 25-19 win. This was the first set loss for the Lady Cats in 20 games. The other two sets were battled back and forth, close all the way, with the Lady Cats holding on to win and extended their winning streak to 51 games. I will bet that these two teams will play again two more times this year, in the region finals and at State in CALF CREEK those finals.

The project team has been battling to pump the groundwater out of the foundation material since the project started and have now won the battle. The foundation has been stabilized and is ready for embankment material to be placed on it. The bedrock in the left and right abutments has been prepared and is also ready. Placement of foundation material has started and the new embankment will be constructed over the next few months. In order to meet the required schedule, and complete the project this winter, ASI Constructors will begin working two, ten hour shifts, six days a week. The work week will begin on Monday mornings at 7:00 a.m. and end on Sunday mornings at 3:00 a.m. The first crew will begin work at 7:00 a.m. and finish at 5:00 p.m. when the second crew starts. The second crew will finish the following morning at 3:00 a.m. There will be no placement of embankment material from 3:00 a.m. to 7:00 a.m. to allow for equipment to be serviced and fueled for the next day's activities. The majority of the activity will take place at the reservoir site with some support activities taking place at the Granular Borrow Area on the southeast side of town. Processed materials from the Granular Borrow Area will be loaded and then hauled to the reservoir site down Highway 12 through the middle of Escalante. The hauling of materials will be performed during the same schedule as the placement of embankment material; which means hauling material during the night. Efforts are being made to minimize the disturbance and the project team is asking the citizens of Escalante to be patient and understanding during this time.
