Show m voun Page A3 The Summit County Bee February 9, 2007 Chief Deputy Hogensen on Board Superintendent's Corner Home of the Braves Grease Lightning!!! Wow, what a wonderful performance by the cast of "Grease." It's three weeks later and I'm still tapping my toe and humming "Summer Nights," thinking about those great times in high school. Don't get me wrong that era was a little before my time, but the great feelings and tough struggles in those high school years seem the same, regardless of the generation. As I was reading the program of cast members, and each of their comments regarding the affects the musical had on them, I thought to myself what a lifetime of memories. Most of their comments were new friendships they've made, a few comments about trying something new, and how the musical had helped them expand their confidence. Individually, each cast member must have a great feeling of pride for being part of such a multifaceted event. As we sat in the audience and watched the performance, it is amazing to think of the people in the background who helped to make this happen. Under the direction of Mr. Brett Richins and Mr. Kurt Goodman, the welding and woodshop students put together different sets. Under the Direction of Ms. Nancy Bates, different sets had hours of painting. Many of the costumes were hand sewn. The hours of re-writing and transposing music to match the individual singers must have been tremendous. What about the dancing? I was a high school teacher for several years, and to get high school males to dance is a minor miracle. What about the practices? I was in a high school play, and the practices were lengthy and tedious. But a musical, I can't imagine the hours and patience it must have taken for all the practices. When you think about the first meeting and tryouts for the musical were in August, the students and staff have done an outstanding job being ready for production in January. I know this year there were so many students that tried out, the freshman were told they had to wait until next year. Some of the students might ask, "How is the best way to get ready for next year?" Enroll in one of the music classes; sing with a group and practice, practice, practice! For the past nine years I have been a member of this wonderful community. It has given me many joys and great pride. Being able to watch a performance with such a diverse group of young people makes me a great believer in the old adage that, "hard work pays off." I can't end this article without acknowledging the adult band and three directors. We would like to thank Blainc Blonquist, Bryant Stevens and Zane Deweese for sharing their musical talents in making the musical happen. Russell Judd, Bryan Stephens, and Kathy Chappell, dircciors spent hours and hours thai only they knew about. What a I\ICA\ accomplishment you rune done for students who were imolved and all you have done for our wonderful community. Working behind the Summit County Clerk's doors is a new face - Scott Hogensen! He is the newly appointed Chief Deputy Clerk, working with Kent Jones, Summit County Clerk. Scott is originally from Roy, Utah, and attended Roy High school. He then attended Weber State University, graduating with a Bachelors degree in Political Science. He received his Masters degree from the University of Utah in 1995, also in Political Science, and in 1999 earned his MBA also at the University of Utah. Scott has a very unique hobby, and one that would keep even the youngest person intrigued - he loves and collects Trains. He is presently a member of the Hostlers Model Railroad Club, which supports Model Railroading in the Intermountain West. It is based in Ogden, but they have memberships all over. The club is open to all who have an interest in model railroading from amateurs to pro. Scott said if anyone loves trains, young and old, they should attend the Ogden Union Station Model Railroad Festival, which is always on the first weekend in March. The word "hostler" is a name for those who repaired engines. The trains were brought in on a circular track - fixed - and sent back on their way hostlers did not drive the trains, only repaired them on this track. Weber County was Scott's former employer, as he was an elections administrator for nearly five years. He enjoys being in Summit County now - it is "great"! He also likes the varied responsibilities verses only working with elections. He is presently getting ready for city elections, and is working with the legislature and attorneys. There are many laws that must be followed and monitored closely. Welcome Scott, to the staff of Summit County! Sheriffs Blotter Thank you. Thank you.
