Show Opinions The Gunnison Valley Gazette Page 6 Thursday, June 29, 2011 Letters to the editor.. CLARIFICATION ON DONATIONS FOR THE GVHS RESTROOMS Dear Gunnison High School Supporter, Thank you for your support and donations to help us build restroom facilities at the football field. The support from the businesses and the community has been great. We are shingling the roof today and all the interior walls are finished and we are ready for the plumber and electricians to come in. We are still in desperate need of money to finish the building. We are so grateful for the money that has been donated to this point. The Deseret News and our local Gunnison Gazette wrote wonderful articles about the people from our community going to Joplin to help the victims there. I just wanted to clarify the donation made by the football program. We did NOT donate the money raised for the restrooms to Joplin. That money was donated to build restrooms at the football field and that is what every penny has been and will be used for. We held a Meet the Team banquet the same time the Judy family was preparing to leave for Joplin. The banquet was a fundraiser to help our football program not the restrooms. During that banquet we decided to donate the money from that night to the victims of Joplin. I am so grateful for the players and adults who made that trip and for their efforts to help people in need. Thank you again for your continued support of our rest- room project and our football program. We are so excited to see this project be completed it will be such an asset to the local communities. If you have any questions or would like to help with our endeavors' please call anytime or you can mail donations to the high school at P.O Box 460 Gunnison, Utah 84634 Thank you Yori Ludvigson Gunnison Valley Football Cell 435-773-7180 Eight 20 yd. shooting lanes • Top of the line bow s • Wide variety of archery accessories • Fishing tackle & bait • • Hunting packs • Scouting cameras • Camo Bow repair and set up • And much more! • Fayette memories: Sunday eggs The Town of Fayette is celebrating its Sesquicentennial this year As part of the celebration Fayette residents and past residents have been asked to share some of their memories. The following story is taken from the History of the Fayette Ward Relief Society 1875-1975. An older sister in the Fayette Relief Society told the following incident. When she was eight or nine years old, she and her cousin were sent out to gather Sunday eggs. Their mothers were visiting teachers, and the girls were to go to the homes in the district served by their mothers. It was a hot day and the eggs seemed heavy. They sat under the bridge in the big dry wash to rest. There were so many eggs that just two would not be missed, so they each took one egg and ran to the store and traded them for candy and then back under the shade of the bridge they enjoyed eating the candy. That night when they went to bed, neither one of the girls could go to sleep until they had confessed to their mothers how they had stolen "from the Lord." The next morning, the two girls accompanied by their mothers, went to the Relief Society President and told her all about it. They said they were sorry and would never do such a thing again. She readily forgave them and told them they would never forget the lesson they had learned. Snow College Richfield Your great-greatgrandparents used clay and straw to seal their home.
