Review - Thursday, April 1, 1982 - Page 3 Conservation Camp Closes Doors fill r& WW .fit - - ,,zzrr "x '" '"A " I - The Timpanogos Young Adult Conservation Center at Lindon, will cease all operations on March 31, 1982, according to Bureau of Reclamation's Upper Colorado Regional Director Clifford Barrett. Closing the Center is part of the Administration's efforts to promote the Nation's economic recovery through reducing Federal ex-penditures. Since Reclamation opened the Center in October, 1978, over 1,500 young adults, ages 16-2- have par-ticipated in a variety of construction related trades. Through their car-pentry, welding, cement, and sign shop work, they have painted and restored picnic tables along river sides, constructed a picnic pavilion for Provo Lions Club and completed restoration work at Willard Bay North Marina. The enrollees are currently completing pavilions over existing picnic facilities at both the American Fork Training School and Pleasant Grove. Barrett said, "The contributions and accomplishments of the young people who performed these wor-thwhile projects are commendable. We congratulate them and wish them well. The job training and ex-periences they have had at the Center have undoubtedly helped prepare them for future employment." The Timpanogos YACC Center has invited all previous YACC enrollees to a farewell openhouse at 12 noon on March 31, 1982 at the Lindon Camp. A CONCRETE pad for a picnic table and fire pit is finished by YACC enrollees. In the background is the concrete mobile used to mix concrete ingredients. Bureau of Reclamation photo by wx. Rusho Chamber Plans Activities for Strawberry Days Fest ; Breaking with the philosophy of the past few years the Pleasant Grove Area Chamber of Commerce plans to take a full and active part in the Strawberry Days activities this year. The firemen will hold a breakfast on June 12. The Strawberry Days committee was in favor of the Chamber of Commerce holding a Strawberry Days promotion in conjunction with the annual city celebration. The city parks and recreation department assisted by the Pleasant Grove High School FBLA will coor-dinate games and activities on June 12. Dennis Barnett was to be asked to serve as chairman of this committee. Other ideas submitted for the promotion included inserting a coupon page in the recreation brochure and advertising in the rodeo booklet. The chamber has plans for a brochure which would contain in-formation which would be of benefit to new families moving into town and could be available for multiple use. John Stevens, president of the ' Chamber, said that the Bank of Pleasant Grove is going to discon-tinue its sign on State and Main Streets. The Chamber has been ap-proached concerning purchase of the sign for a community sign. If the Chamber were to purchase the sign, the Utah County Travel Council would participate in half of the cost up to $750.00. As Chamber funds are limited the maximum price the Chamber could pay for the sign could be $1,500. The sign company is now being contracted for a price on the sign. Members discussed a name change for the organization, John asked the board members to consider the name of "Pleasant Grove Area" Chamber of Commerce. This would then include the area of Lindon, Cedar Hills and the surrounding county area. Neighborhood Meet A neighborhood council meeting for those residents living in Voting Districts 1, 2, and 11 will be held April 8 at 7 p.m. in the Kiwanis Room in the basement of the Public Safety Building. Councilman Glenn T. Smith will be in charge of the meeting. A prepared agenda for this meeting is set up. Input from those in attendance on any issue involving Pleasant Grove City is asked for. Any citizen living in District 1 may call Dan Fugal or Russell Schow, in District 2 call Darrell Cook and in District 11 call Diane Brereton for information about this meeting. Councilman Smith will also answer questions about this meeting. His number is 785-302- Mayor David Holdaway has divided the city into neighborhoods and asked one councilmember to be over each neighborhood in an effort to get the needs of the community reported to the city leaders for action. Well Runs Well High Plains Well Drilling, said the well took longer than usual to drill because of the rock. He said he was pleased with the flow of water being pumped. Because of the water coming through rock it will have less sand and other material in it through the test period, Frandsen said. When the well house is equipped the water will be placed directly into the system for use. .' City leaders said they were very pleased when the newly drilled Grovecreek Well test pumped up to 1,500 gallons of water per minute this week. The well, located at the top of Grovecreek Drive, was drilled to a depth of 600 feet. The driller said the water was now being pumped from a depth of about 460 feet. City engineer Lee Wimmer said the drill had to go through 170 feet of granite bedrock as well as granite boulders as big as 30 feet in diameter. The well will feed the Battlecreek system taking care of the area east of 500 East, and from north of 1100 North to 200 South. Wimmer said he had expected 1000 gallons of water per minute so he was happy with the amount being test pumped. Cost of drilling the well was $83,820. The new well will have to be equipped and housed. This should take about six months to complete, Wimmer said. ... - ,. The engineer said that the water in this kind of terrain comes through fissures and cracks in the rock. He noted that there is a two or more year delay from the time the moisture lands on Mt. Timpanogos until it is pumped because it takes so long to work its way past all the rocks, and obstructions. The driller, Aaron Frandsen of Accident Causes Heavy Damage to Automobiles An accident at 100 E. Center Street i resulted in minor injuries to an elderly couple and caused heavy property damage to two cars. ' A vehicle driven by Donald Toomey, 52, 555 S. Palisades Drive, Orem, and one driven by Louise Barney, 78, Ranchester, Wyo., collided at the intersection. Officer Don Aucoin reported that damage to the Toomey car was $6,000 and to the Barney vehicle at $1,500. J The injured were treated at the 'scene by Pleasant Grove Ambulance crews and then taken to Mr. View Hospital in Payson. Injured were Mrs. Barney and her husband who was a passenger in her car. A street sweeper being driven by David Grow, Jr., 40, 10061 Poplar Court, Cedar Hills, sustained $1,000 damage when the driver rounded a curve on U146 at 2300 N. and collided with a horse in the center of the road. The horse was owned by, Alex Wadley, 2508 N. Canyon Rd. In-vestigating officer was Cody Cullimore. Students Beautify 'School's Theater By LINDA HARRIS Sixty-fiv- e poplar trees and seven locust trees put down new roots last Thursday when the PTA and children undertook the task of beautifying the area around Lindon Elementary Schools' new amphitheater. The idea for the amphitheater came about during the U.S. Bicentennial when organizations, schools, etc. were encouraged to apply for grants from the Federal Government. Herbert Gilbert, principal at that time, applied for and received a grant to build the amphitheater. However, the construction was held up, the weather turned bad, and funds were cut off. The project was abandoned for several years. This last fall the PTA felt the area should be completed. They could see its usefulness for a variety of school and community activities. School Principal Eugene Maag also was in favor of doing something with the area. He felt it was both an eyesore and a hazard to the children. A book fair was held in February and the proceeds were applied to finishing the area in a joint effort with Alpine School District. The District quickly completed necessary work on the theater and grounds. The project culminated this week with the planting of the trees pur-chased by the PTA. Gary n and Varsity Scout Troop 8160 dug the holes and before the planting was completed half the students were involved. Dean Smith of Alpine District thinks they should have the sprinklers in and lawn planted within the next week. Events such as the May Day program, Dance Festival, ' class programs, and Cub Scout activities are in the planning stage as possible uses of the theater. The amphitheater has caused no small amount of ex-citement among teachers either. One teacher, envisioning a class activity, said she could just see covered wagons coming down over the hill and a campfire with pioneers gathered around square dancing. Many thanks go out to all those who helped. Serving " North Utah County II Suulh Main. I'lrasunl (irovr.
