Show A8 Sanpete Messenger/Gunnison Valley Edition Wednesday, April 4, 2007 Picture of drama students during their trip to the regional competition. Drama students to perform region repertoire for public Principal walks eight miles, leads students by example Grant Hansen, principal of Gunnison Valley Elementary School, leads his school by example. Last Friday, Hansen walked 8.3 miles from his home in Mayfield to the school in 2 hours and 19 minutes. Once he was in sight, students began chanting, “Hansen, Hansen, Hansen.” After arriving at the school, Hansen led the whole school on a walk around the school. Fifth grade teacher Paul Childs took Hansen’s example to heart: he ran the distance from Hansen’s home to the school in 1 hour and 5 minutes. Hansen said he believes exercise contributes to success in school. He and Childs say they hope they have set a positive example for the students. GUNNISON—Gunnison Valley High School drama students will perform their region drama entries for the public on Friday at 7 p.m in the Gunnison Valley High School auditorium. The first performances will be individual scenes from a variety of plays. Megan Jensen will present a dramatic interpretation about Joan of Arc from “Saint Joan.” Monty Python’s “The Holy Grail” will be the basis for Ethan Young’s humorous interpretation sketch. Ben Boore and Sam Brown will pantomime “Bunny Bashing for Our Redneck Pleasure.” Casey Yardley and Stacy Mellor will perform “Love Kills.” B.J. Starks will assume the character of Arnold from “The Boys Next Door” for his monoact performance. Larry Shue’s “The Nerd” is the inspiration for Zach Watson and Jon Warren’s sketch. Then Mary Matthews and Ryan Williams will perform a scene from “Brigadoon.” After the intermission, “Why We Laugh,” a one-act play will take the stage. The 40-minute play by Stephen Grey, directed by Kenneth Walker, took fourth place at region. The play follows the life of a couple from childhood through adulthood.
