Sunday Concert Series in Springville Starts a New Season August 19th . . .

Ginny Ackerson Arts Commissioner

Jake Blonquist Pianist/Composer

Jake Blonquist has been playing the piano for about nine years. He started with group classes when he was four years old at the Art City Music and Dance Academy.

At age nine, Jake began to study privately at the Academy and is currently a student of Bonnie Hopper Jack.

Since being with the Art City Music and Dance Academy (705 North Main Street, Springville) he has won several local solo competitions.

Jake frequently performs in a Piano Quartet with Allison Ells, Lela Packard, and Rylie Hinds, also students of the Art City Music and Dance Academy (nicknamed the Fantastic Four ).

Jake is known mostly for his compositions, consisting of several piano solos and even a techno song. Jake started composing in 2010 and decided he really enjoyed the process. In 2011 he wrote his second and favorite composition: Daybreak In Chicago. This piece has been performed for hundreds of people several different times, in his drama class at Mapleton Jr. High, as well as various community events.

After performing this piece so much he realized he had a love for composing. Jake went on to write several more pieces and over the last 18 months has completed seven compositions, and has anothSee Blonquist, page 4

The Sunday Concert Series is one of the best-kept secrets in Utah County. Every third Sunday from August to May the Springville Arts Commission presents singers and musicians of the highest caliber and performing in many genres. The concerts take place in the Grand Gallery of the Springville Museum of Art located at 126 East 400 South, Springville. Performances start at 5 p.m. and are free to the public.

The 2012/2013 Sunday Concert Series at the Springville Museum of Art is starting their new season with a fabulous performance by the Alpine Chamber Winds on Sunday, August 19th. The Alpine Chamber Winds is the Utah Valley University’s resident woodwind quintet.

The group, which has been

Alpine Chamber Winds

playing together only since August 2010, performs as if they’ve been together for years. Their ensemble skills and collaborative efforts are as spectacular as their musicality and technical acumen.

The five members that make up the Alpine Chamber Winds (Mary Richards, flute; Jayne Drummond, oboe; Matthew Nelson, clarinet; Jeb Wallace, horn; Brian Hicks, bassoon) are all

wonderfully talented musicians.

The next concert in the series will be September 16th and features the Utah Lyric Opera. The Utah Lyric Opera is a new company based in Utah Valley committed to promoting Utah’s highest caliber of artists and nurturing the burgeoning talents of Utah’s future opera professionals.

Past seasons at Utah Lyric Opera have included major concerts and opera productions at Provo City’s Covey Center for the Arts.

Last season featured guest artist Ronan Tynan, formerly of the Three Irish Tenors, and nationally recognized artists such as Tony Award winner Lisa Hopkins Seegmiller and Grammy nominee Kirsten Gunlogson.

Historical “Ghost Images” of Local Locations Bryan Hutchison Historical Project

As we live our lives we develop attachments to the physical space we interact with, a term anthropologists call “place-making.” Places, particularly historical places develop powerful “place-worlds,” places significant to the community that connect them to their land’s past. As places are torn down, that place-world is distanced with its accompanying meaning and history. As Provo evolves, our attachment to history, memory, and community experience also evolve. This project is an exploration of Provo’s evolution of space, and its consequent change in conceptual and emotional space.

Just last month (July 2012) I put up an art exhibit about Provo’s lost historic buildings. Some of these were iconic buildings very familiar to Provo residents.

During the two weeks of the exhibit I was told stories of Provo’s Downtown, of Hotel Roberts, Roasted Artichoke, Pioneer Theater, or other buildings people felt connected to. The feedback I received was overwhelmingly positive, and a lot of people expressed their excitement with the project, and my future project to bring the history of these places to the public’s fingertips.

The exhibit was made up of 6ft images, numbering 12 in all. Displayed in the interior of the Harris Fine Arts Center main floor, the pieces

were spaced to re-create a sense of a city street. The twelve works faced inward, creating a visual rectangular wall and a separate inner space for visitors to enter and contemplate. This same exhibit is scheduled to travel to Ephraim, UT at Snow College for the month of October. I have been working on this project for the past year, beginning with research on structures that have been demolished and collecting photographs and historical information. I have enough materials to continue making pieces for some 30 buildings from Provo.

At this point I am looking to expand on this project on-line. I wish to make the history of these buildings accessible and interactive.

More specifically, I am creating an interactive website

meant to give the interesting stories and facts of these places easy access. It will involve still standing historic buildings as well as those lost. To do this project, I need help finding stories, histories and photographs of buildings that the local public may have of these places. The buildings in particular I am currently focusing on are: Hotel Roberts, Franklin Elementary School, St. Francis of Assisi Catholic Church, Roasted Artichoke, Provo Tabernacle (interior photographs especially), Nutall House (was located in Bicentennial Park), Pioneer Theater, and more to come.

I have a kickstarter project started to support this project. I haven’t finalized all the details yet for the, but should have it up and running by the end of the month. I

will post a link on facebook and on my website (http:// bryanhutchison.com) along with regular updates for people interested in supporting the project.

I am also willing to expand to include a few building in the Springville area since this paper is focused on Southern Utah County. If there is anyone that is willing to share some historic special locations in Springville please contact me via facebook or my website.

Choose to Be Nice Anyway! SPRINGVILLE WORLD

Trudy J. Peck Parenting 911

Some people are under the impression that just because bad things happen, poor behavior is acceptable.

For example, it is commonly understood that when you step on a stray Lego, it is perfectly all right to say some choice words that you might otherwise not let fly. Mothergoose is here to tell you that even though such a performance is understandable under the circumstances, we can learn to have more self control and teach our children that acting badly under pressure is not just ‘the way it is. And in fact, meanness is not really okay. One of the challenges in life is to teach children, (and ourselves) to be nice, even when things are hard.

Some behaviors that are generally accepted are: When you’re late or have to wait, it’s it is expected that you will be irritable. When parents ask children to do something (or outright tell them) more than once, moms and dads think it’s okay to get an-

gry. When someone makes a mistake, especially in business, it’s okay to get after them. When children are tired, they whine. If you get bad news in the mail, it’s okay to get upset and yell about it. When you can’t find something, you blame people around you, ‘Good Grief!

Which of you kids took my i-phone!?’ When you have said something once and someone forgets that you said it, you feel justified with expressing your frustration having to say it again. When you are hungry you are more grumpy than when you are not.

When you know the best way to do something and someone else is doing it a dumb way, you feel justified in correcting him. When your computer does things it’s not supposed to do, you yell at it. Although the computer cannot hear you and doesn’t care one way or the other, the people around you have to listen to your rantings and you don’t look very good at this point. These are a few times, however, when rudeness is generally accepted and soon forgiven. Although people do tend to forgive and understand grumpiness in these situations, it is still better to learn not to behave badly anyway.

The first trick to teaching kids to be nice anyway is for you to come to believe yourself that you can be good

under adversity. It was freeing the day I realized that no matter how often the credit card collections company asked for money, I had the power to cheerfully and politely tell them that unfortunately a bad check was no better than no check and that I would gladly send my payment as soon as I could. The situation was not greatly improved if I, in my frustration with my financial situation, took it out on the poor bloke who was assigned to call me every day until collection was successful. The answer was still ‘I’ll pay when I can,’ regardless of how grumpy I was when I said it. We do have the choice to be grumpy or nice, no matter the situation.

Once you have realized that you have the power to refuse to be angry and choose kindness instead, encourage your children to realize this as well. Tell them, ‘I know you are tired, but it’s not okay to whine.’ ‘You must be hungry, but please don’t throw Batman at your brother.’ Or for teen drivers - ‘I’m sorry that car cut you off, but I wish you wouldn’t yell at me about it.’

If you have comments about being grumpy, send complaints to mothergoose911 @ yahoo. com I’ll listen and not grumble back. 

FOLKFEST - A SUCCESS! Donna Breckenridge Event Co-Ordinator

The 26th annual Springville World Folkfest was in full swing the week of 30 July to 4 August 2012, with international folk dance groups coming from Austria, Catalonia, Colombia, Costa Rica, Croatia and Siberia. It

was a great mix of colorful costumes, ethnic music and a wide variety of traditional dances. Each year the Folkfest is presented at the Spring Acres Arts Park, 620 S 1350 E, Springville, in a natural amphitheater and on a stage specially build for dancing.

Dancers, musicians and directors are housed by volunteer host families around the county, and they report what a wonderful experience it is to become friends in such a short time with people from an entirely different culture.

Donna Breckenridge reported, “ I am so glad we were involved with Folkfest while our children were growing up! They learned patience, understanding, trust and a liking for foreign food that they would never have found elsewhere. As adults, they are not afraid to learn new things and they all have a love of travel. No matter where they go in life, they will have friends in many countries.” She went on to say that they have housed guests from Mexico, Canada, France, Turkey, Hungary, New Zealand, Bulgaria and England, among other countries.

The board of directors consists of volunteers from

all walks of life and who live in different parts of Utah County. They dedicate their time and energy to making the festival a success each year. Besides arranging for housing, meals and transportation, they also arrange activities for the groups and host families, provide a free street dance the first Monday of the week, plan outreach programs such as teaching dance classes at local universities, performing for senior citizens and groups of disabled adults, and making travel arrangements to and from the Salt Lake International airport or the Bountiful/Davis Summerfest International, a similar festival in Bountiful, the following week. The production crew is kept busy planning each night’s performance with the help of AV Productions of Springville, who provide the sound and lighting systems.

Other board members are over marketing, vending, ticket sales, fundraising and facilities.

SPRINGVILLE TO CELEBRATE HERITAGE DAYS SEPT. 15 - CITY TURNS 162 Ginny Ackerson Arts Commissioner

Springville was founded in 1850 by eight families lead

by Aaron Johnson and directed to settle this area by Brigham Young. The name of the settlement was originally Hobble Creek but was changed to Springville because of the many fresh water springs in the area. This year marks the 162nd year of the original settlement.

The first annual Springville Heritage Day celebration to honor the founding of the city will be held on Saturday, September 15th from Noon to four p.m. in the Civic Center Park on Main Street in front of the City building.

This celebration is free to the public. The Red Desert Ramblers will provide music, there will be pioneer games for children of all ages, and the Springville Playhouse Youth Theater Group will present a condensed panora-

Jake is not just a pianist, though; he plays lacrosse, loves running and most of all loves drama.

This year at Mapleton Jr. High School Jake played Tom Sawyer in ‘Tom Sawyer, the Musical.” When asked about this experience he says, “ I loved every minute of it: the rehearsals, the long hours of memorizing

lines and most of all the great friends I made!” This was his first time performing as a vocalist and he did so with great confidence and you would’ve thought he had been singing and acting on stage for years.

When he is older Jake ideally wants to work four days a week so that he can continue composing as a career. He still isn’t sure if he wants to major in music but he knows for sure he will be taking classes, composing music and always making music throughout his life.

Independence Day. The Fourth of July. For many families and neighborhoods across the country, this is a day of parades, barbeques, picnics, and fireworks shows.

But for the Maeser Neighborhood in Provo, 24 hours just wasn’t enough. So in 2002, they implemented what was to become the most beloved neighborhood tradition: the July 3rd block party.

Every year on the third day of July, one street is blocked off from corner to corner from mid-afternoon till midnight. All the cars are moved away and the street becomes a playground for all the neighborhood friends and families. Underscored by festive holiday music, kids ride their bikes, scooters, and

skateboards in the street. A “wagon train,” built of several garden wagons on the back of a 4-wheeler, pulls toddlers around the block.

There are water fights, egg tosses, kickball tournaments, bounce-houses, and a massive neighborhood barbeque.

After dusk, a few rabblerousing teenagers lead the dance, starting with the Macarena or Boot Scootin’ Boogie – both proven get-upand-dance show-stoppers.

To top off the evening, families bring their fireworks, poppers, bottle rockets, and sparklers, and light up the night with an incredible pyrotechnic display. But if you thought the fun ends there, you could not be more wrong! After all the fire-

works wind down, there’s an all-night movie party in the yard of one of the homes along the parade route, often showing hit films recently released on DVD. Such an impressive celebration would not be possible without the help and willing contributions of every family involved. Every year, families pull together to get the permit to block off the street. Teenagers hand out invitations with instructions on what to bring for the barbeque. Kids plaster cars and trees with “move your car by 3 pm or else!” flyers. The food, barbeques, tables, chairs, decorations, sound system, and dance lights are all generously donated by people in the neighborhood.

This year, the fun was in jeopardy when the request to block the street was denied. The neighbors met together, sometimes impromptu on the sidewalk,

sometimes at organized gettogethers, and worked out a way to let the tradition continue. Kids young and adults not-so-young poured their heartfelt love for this party into e-mails to Provo’s Mayor Curtis, who has himself attended and enjoyed the block party in recent years. The combination of persistence and positive thinking did the trick: the block party was back on.

This block party has been a great uniting factor for the Maeser Neighborhood, and is a much-loved tradition, even treasured and anticipated by kids who are younger than the party itself.

It’s a lot of hard work to get ready, and a lot of hard fun to be had. We hope this tradition will continue for another strong decade to come. It’s suggested that you start a tradition like this in your neck of the woods.

Essential Oils Education A Message of Hope and Series: Back to School Recovery for Veterans Worthy Lee

Have you ever rubbed a leaf between your hands?

Smells nice, right? But what is that fragrant oily substance left in your palms?

You have just released the aromatic compounds from the oil sacs that are found in the leaves, bark, root, stem, flowers and fruits of different plants. This is where essential oils originate.

Essential oils are the life-blood of a plant, which functions very much the same way our blood does for us. They are the substances that help plants stay healthy and ward off diseases and sickness. In their purest form—with no dilutions or additives—they are incredibly powerful and effective.

Different plants have different chemical makeups. Each essential oil has between 200-800 chemical constituents and has yet to be completely duplicated in a lab. Because of this, there are endless applications for the oils. For instance, Peppermint oil is not only good for stomach troubles, it is

also great for headaches, itching, fevers, opening sinuses, increasing oxygen absorption, decreasing breast milk when weaning a baby and so much more. Just the other day, my 3-monthold son was going through a growth spurt; the next morning, I had bloodshot eyes. I applied a small amount of Peppermint just under my nose and as I breathed the Peppermint in, I could see the blood receding in my eyes. I wish I had it on camera!

With August here, families are readying their children to go back to school.

Kids will be in close proximity to one another and parents will be concerned about infections passing from one child to their own.

A great way to combat the cold and flu is to simply apply 1 drop of dōTERRA’s Protective Blend called OnGuard® on the bottoms of your children’s feet. For small children, it would be wise to dilute the blend with a carrier oil like coconut or olive oil.

Should illness already be in your home, you can

diffuse OnGuard® to kill the germs in the air and prevent other family members from getting sick. This past winter, I got sick shortly after I bought some oils. I felt horrible, but at the same time, I was excited to put the oils to the test. I diffused the oil diligently and sure enough, my daughter and husband never caught the bug even though I was coughing throughout the house each day and in my husband’s face every night.

Now I invite you not to take my word for it, but to experience it for yourself.

To learn more, look on page 12 for a gift certificate to attend a class. If you bring the gift certificate, you will receive your very own 5mL bottle of Wild Orange essential oil. Wild Orange is good for increasing energy, decreasing stress and uplifting moods. I also dripped a couple drops of this oil in my glass of water as a means of combating water retention when I was pregnant.

on health and nutrition and has found herself hearkening back to her Chinese roots.

“I was frustrated with my daughter’s pediatrician who kept on suggesting petroleum jelly to help with my daughter’s eczema. I went to a dermatologist who prescribed steroid oil and though it calmed the eczema to a degree, it always came back. I was determined to find an ac-

tual cure.”

Shortly after leaving her job, a neighbor invited Worthy to a dōTERRA Essential Oils class.

“Ever since attending, dōTERRA has opened innumerable doors for me. It has led me to take a closer look at alternative forms of medicine. And now I can honestly say that my daughter’s eczema is cured.” 

We share a message of hope for families that Recovery is a process anyone can learn; anyone can teach, and everyone can experience.

Here is how to do it: 1. Breathe in Peace 2. Breathe out Stress 3. Relax your neck and shoulders 4. Think about what you want We can gradually reach a state where stress related symptoms, like a flash temper, or isolation, can become "un-diagnosable!"

We recover as we form new neural pathways that change our thinking, which changes our feelings, and then our behavior changes. When behavior changes, then anything is possible.

We can use this to our advantage as we go about transforming our lives.

Change is no longer just possible, it is inevitable. We are able to choose our path.

Recovery puts us on the path to what we call "Abundant Life".

Abundance in every section of life: Health, Relationships, Intellectual, Financial, and Spiritual. It's all of what we choose to want for ourselves.

What’s happening on Main Street?

A Little information about Worthy Lee:

*

When we practice Active Conditioning we are intentionally rerouting electro-chemical impulses as our thoughts seek the path of least resistance in the salt water of the brain. As the electricity in the thought passes through the brain it leaves wispy traces of chemicals. Soon the brain actually starts growing new neural-physical structures call axons and dendrites.

These are the parts of the nervous system that actually conduct electricity!

Consciously thinking about the same thing again and again helps form new super nerve highways that grow and grow as more electricity flows through them. We can design and build new paths of least resistance based on what we have decided we want. This is similar to the way cobwebs can aggregate

Real Estate Today What’s happening on Main Street? We recently took our annual trip to Cedar City and the Shakespeare Festival. This is their fiftyfirst anniversary. We had a tremendous time with two of our older granddaughters. As we walked up the historic Main Street, I couldn’t help thinking of our own Main Street right here in Springville.

Cedar City’s downtown Main Street area is well taken care of, the property owners with few exceptions show pride in their properties.

They are suffering from the down economy as we all are.

There are a few vacant

buildings but not many.

Their Main Street is a bit longer than ours, but not by much—perhaps a block or two.

Our Main Street is anchored by our new city center and a new library on the North and continues south to 400 south. In the four blocks we have a variety of buildings built in the nineteenth century and the turn of the twentieth. Most have been renovated and are standing quite tall and show integrity to the era in which they were built.

I have been a participant on Main as a property owner since the mid 1990s. During this time I have witnessed a lot of changes. Businesses have come and gone. At one time there was not a vacancy on either side of the street.

With the economic climate we are in, a few businesses have succumbed, lacking customers to make purchases.

The latest to announce the closure of their business is Main Street Auto.

Preceding them was the The Porch on Main. Nothing looks worse and is a greater

decay in a downtown area than vacant buildings looking for new tenants. One of the biggest eyesores in our downtown area is the historic Rivoli Theatre, formally the Villa Playhouse.

Granted, the timing was off when the city acquired the building with an eye to renovating it and turning it into a cultural arts center. It is a grand idea. It would make a beautiful anchor to the Southern end of our historic downtown area. It would be a draw for visitors from outside our city and would be an economic shot-in-the-arm and could lead to a vibrant downtown area. I hope that we are not destined to have boarded-up storefronts and further decay.

Let us all support these downtown businesses and establishments and open our pocketbooks to help the Rivoli get restored to its original class act. As Carolyn Pearson wrote: “The opening curtain shudders, moves on an unseen cue. The stage is consciousness, the cast is you.” Until next time, keep smiling. 

Restaurant Reviewer Your mom tells you to eat healthy. You try to but you justify that a) it’s easier to eat junk food, b) it’s cheaper to eat junk food, c) healthy food doesn’t taste good and d) you just like junk food.

Well, prepare to like something healthy that tastes fabulous.

Ginger’s Garden Café on Main Street in downtown Springville started because folks visiting the original part of the store, Christopher’s Herb Garden, wanted to know how to incorporate the herbs and spices into their meals.

“People would come in and talk about how they were eating healthy but we were surprised at some of the things people said they were eating,” said manager Bobbie Henderson. “We decided to be an example and give ideas of how to use the things in the shop.”

The menu items at the café are diverse, abundant and colorful. Our group chose two appetizers: Nachos and Hummus & Pita; several entrees: Turkey Avocado Club Sandwich, Falafel Sandwich, Agi’s Raw Pizza and Mandarin Chicken Salad; two desserts: Key Lime Pie and Chocolate Raspberry Pie and a Berry Wonderful Smoothie.

One appetizer is not what a die-hard nachos fan would expect. Nachos to many is a bed of chips smothered in a gooey cheese “product” with a few token onions thrown on top. We did find a slate of blue corn tortilla chips … under a heaping mound of fresh chopped tomatoes, red and green peppers, black beans, red onions and avocados. The vegan nacho cheese is made with Nutritional Yeast and Almond Milk. That might not sound tasty but believe me, we were licking the remnants of the cheese sauce off the plate.

Although it’s billed as an appetizer, it could easily be a meal, passing as a delectable salad.

Bobbie said they are still playing with the hummus recipe but the garlic and basil creamy version we got was perfect.

“Half of the staff like the thick, creamy kind,” Bobbie said. “I like the grainy oily

version – it’s a little thinner.”

Employee Shayna Pittman said the Turkey Avocado Club is something everyone asks for and it’s her favorite too. We only had a half serving but it was filling enough to be a whole entrée. Packed with free-range turkey slices, lettuce, tomato, avocado and sundried tomato “facon,” a bacon substitute, it is served on toasted focaccia with the restaurant’s delicious ranch dressing.

“All the breads and grains are hearty, there is a nice weight to them,” said Todd Smith. He said the facon adds a nice subtle tartness to the whole thing, giving it a good flavor.

The Falafel Sandwich has falafel patties and veggies in a pita bread with their ranch and hummus. The combination of flavors was nice - savory and not too spicy.

“The variety of ingredients complement each other – it brings out more flavor,” said Amy Leah Nelson Smith. “It’s flavorful but doesn’t weigh you down.”

If you’re yearning for a hot, gooey cheese and meatladen pizza, don’t order Agi’s Raw Pizza. The ingredients vaguely resemble a standard pizza but go for unique, not standard -- you’ll be pleasantly surprised. The crust is made of flaxseed. It’s then covered with raw cashew cheese and tomato sauce. An enormous mound of onions, peppers, mushrooms, toma-

toes, zucchini and basil make this another offering packed with color, crunch and taste.

“There are a lot of dense nutrients on this,” Amy noted. “You get a full meal from a small amount. That size somewhere else wouldn’t fill you like this does.”

I loved the toppings on the pizza – they were plentiful, fresh and tasty. The crust intrigued me though. It reminded me of a crunchy cookie without the sweetness. I kept sneaking bites of it, piled with the garden fresh toppings. Bobbie said they grow some items on site but source out locally for other ingredients. The freshness is perceptible and we appreciated the effort.

Ginger’s Garden Café offers several Smoothies and Super Smoothies, each bursting with various fruit but other items range from spearmint to agave to cashews.

Our Berry Wonderful Smoothie had fresh berries but was sweetened with dates, an interesting choice that gave it a crunchy surprise every few bites. Next trip in, I’m getting the Chocolate Mousse Super Smoothie, not sure how I missed that one …

The Mandarin Chicken Salad was artfully arranged

by Ginger’s creative cooks who know flavor is just one part of a meal, presentation is another. Cucumbers, freerange teriyaki chicken, purple cabbage, sugar snap peas and mandarin oranges play

color wheel on a bed of greens with a tangy sesame seed dressing.

We finished off our meal with two kinds of pie, made by local company Raw Melissa. The pies and other food as defined on its website are “raw - being in a natural condition; not processed or refined.” As luscious bites of pie pass through your mouth, your brain doesn’t say, “Oh no, you shouldn’t.” It says, “Hmmm, how can something this scrumptious be healthy?”

Hands down we loved the rich Raspberry Chocolate which is layered chocolate and raspberries but the Key Lime pie was light and tart – just as it should be.

“The most important thing about this place is the quality of ingredients,” said Todd, summing up our plentiful meal. “Everything is real, no chemicals, no substitutes, it’s real food your body knows how to process. You leave fulfilled.”

The menu boasts more than two dozen items. Prices for all, excluding drinks, range from $4.49 to $11.99.

Our choices were mid-range and there is a kids menu too.

Ginger’s Garden Café is open Monday through Saturday, 11 a.m. to 8 p.m. Visit www. gingersgardencafe.com/.

If mom wants you to eat healthy, you no longer have any excuses.

R - Quest of the King Book Cover Chris Baird

Interviewer Tell us a bit about your family: I grew up in Springville with two sisters and a brother. I still live there with my husband. We raised a son who is now in the army reserve and a daughter who is now married.

What prompted you to write the Quest of the King?

My husband’s job is one that has unpredictable hours, so I’ve spent a lot of time waiting for him. I’ve done a lot of reading. Eventually I began writing. Quest of the King is the first book that I wrote. I found it to be a relaxing way to spend my time.

When I got finished I realized that others might enjoy reading it as well.

What did you hope to have the reader learn/understand by reading the book?

That sometimes we have to put the past to rest before we can move forward in our lives. We must take responsibility for both ourselves and those relying on us. We must live in the present and remember those who have passed with love, not sorrow.

What hobbies do you

have?

Besides writing, I sew and love to do lots of different crafts. I ride motorcycles, camp, fish and scuba dive.

My husband and I enjoy building things together as well.

What was the hardest part of writing the book?

Mostly finding the time to write. Sometimes I can only find a few minutes at a time like on my lunch break, but I’m usually thinking about writing even when I can’t sit down to the computer to write. This book was originally written in notebooks and later entered into a computer. I also sometimes have a hard time with new names for characters, but I love finding unusual names.

How did you come up with the title?

The original title was going to be Glynis Quest, but my husband suggested Quest of the King might create more interest.

How did you form the characters – did you have them represent friends/ family/etc?

I’ve never specifically based a character on someone I knew. Some of my friends and family might rec-

ognize personality traits of me or themselves, but the characters seemed to have developed unique personalities of their own. There is one character with a unique sense of humor that reminds my husband of me.

Are there more volumes to come? If so, how many?

There are two more in the Ancient Kings series that I’ve published along with three from a second series called the Under the Dragon Moon series. Yes, there are more to come. Right now I am working on a fourth book for this series that is in the editing stages. There are additional books that I’m working on. It’s hard to say how many since sometimes I will split one book into two or combine two into one. It seems the characters have stories to tell and sometimes they converge or even divert which is how the Under the Dragon Moon series came about.

Suggestions?

It is alright to mourn for friends and loved ones who have died, but don’t let that consume you. Remember to love those still living and cherish the time you have with them.

Synopsis: Quest of the King continues the Ancient Kings Series by introducing the Lord of Dracona. He is a lonely man with a dark past who is thrust into unexpected responsibilities. He faces tasks that he has no hope of accomplishing on his own and no one to turn to for help. It is also the story of a nation in search of the answer to an ancient riddle and another nation in the grip of a tyrant king. Quest of the King explores Lord Dracona’s duty to those around him and rising to the challenges in life that he was not expecting. It also explores morning and putting the past behind him so he can face the future. He finds that once he faces his fears, he finds the internal strength that can sustain a person through seemingly hopeless times.

Tom Nicholes Book Review

found on my website at www. vjogardner.com.

This is the second book in the ancient kings series.

The first book; “Blood of Ancient Kings”, was a medieval romance, with a great story line teaching good values. This story also set in medieval times and is a great jump in writing for the author, diving deeper into the fantasy realm. With intrigue and plot twists, the story flowed with ease, I never felt like I missed something, and was hard to put down.

The story again deals with love and romance among royalty and their difficulties with the relationship. Lord Bryant struggling from the loss of his family and being the only one to care for Dracona Castle, and its unusual occupants, rescues a maiden and her father, traveling to a local village, from some evil men. He is enthralled by her beauty and sets out to win her love. Sonje trying to understand a prophetic riddle, sets out on a quest with Bryant, filled with fortune tellers, traveling minstrel and a magical sword .

With mystery from the past and in the present within each of their families, there are numerous plot twists.

The characters learn about loyalty to family and friends, honor between kingdoms, kindness to servants and subjects.

While reading this I was reminded of the the Boy Scout Law. A Scout is: Trustworthy, Loyal, Helpful,Friendly, Courteous, Kind, Obedient, Cheerful, Thrifty,Brave, Clean, & Reverent Many attributes that should be considered everybody’s law I look forward to her next book Tom Nicholes 

The Traffic Light

Jokes and Riddles

Ever wonder what roads would be like without traffic lights? A mess, right? Well, that was exactly the scene in the early 1900s. Cars had just become available to the public, and the roads were filled with them, plus horse-drawn carriages and bicycles. Driving through such crowded roads was difficult, especially at intersections.

Although police officers might direct traffic at really busy intersections, most drivers were left to fend for themselves, often causing accidents. One day, inventor Garrett Morgan saw a bad accident at an intersection and decided to invent something that would make intersections less dangerous.

Morgan thought about the problem and came up with a hand-cranked T-shaped pole light that would control the flow of traffic at intersections. The light had three positions: stop, go and an all-traffic stop so pedestrians could cross the street safely.

Morgan’s invention was a success and used everywhere until automatic traffic lights were invented.

RIVOLI THEATER in SPRINGVILLE ON MAIN ASKS FOR YOUR ASSISTANCE

CONCEPT DRAWING OF EXTERIOR OF RIVOLI THEATER

THE CAUSE The once prominent Rivoli Theater on Main Street, purchased by the city of Springville in 2008, now sits vacant and in desperate need of restoration. It’s a shadow of its former significance as a movie palace, playhouse, and cultural center for the burgeoning city of Springville. A group of local residents are working hard to raise the funds needed to turn the theater into a community center for the arts.

BRIEF HISTORY The Rivoli Theater was originally opened as a silent movie house in 1927 by Swedish immigrant and future mayor of Springville, Emil Ostlund. It soon became a venue not just for films, news reels, and Saturday car-

toons, but a central gathering place for meetings, lectures, and humanitarian engagement in the community. Mr. Ostlund opened another theater in Springville, The Ritz, in 1936, but it did not survive the test of time like the Rivoli.

In 1939, the Rivoli was closed for three months while it was renovated and expanded to include a neighboring Main Street property. The theater was rebuilt in a Art Deco style with a focus on straight lines and linear symmetry. This style is still visible on the exterior facade as well as in details inside the theater. No photos or drawings of the pre-1939 Rivoli Theater are known to exist.

The Rivoli was upgraded with new technology over the years, but struggled under new ownership after Mr. Ost-

CONCEPT DRAWING OF INTERIOR OF RIVOLI THEATER

lund’s death. It was shuttered briefly in 1962, then reopened and was put up for sale. In 1963, fter six months without a buyer, the theater closed without warning. Residents pushed for the city to purchase the property and convert it into a communityoperated recreation center, but they failed to draw enough support for their plans. Springville was busy building a new civic center and library and mired in debate about the future of recreation options in the city.

In 1967, after being closed for four years, the theater reopened under new, private ownership. Its name was changed to the Villa Theater and for the first time, along with the current trend, it was closed on Sundays. A larger stage was added in 1977 to accommodate live perfor-

mances, though films were still shown intermittently over the years as ownership continued to change hands. It was a dollar movie theater in the early nineties, then featured family-friendly plays and musicals—many written by locals—into the 21st century. Under new ownership again in 2005, it was renamed the Art City Playhouse.

Springville City finally purchased the building in 2008 and decided its name would revert to the Rivoli Theater. But an economic downturn stalled restoration plans before they could start.

After a few more days, my circulation improved and after three weeks and further consultation with my doctor, I was able to stop taking my other medications for high blood pressure, high cholesterol and arthritis! I’m not making any claims; I can only tell you what happened to me. Plus in three months I earned a new Audi given to me by Kyani.

Now two years later Kyäni has made an incredible difference in my life. I feel better than I have in twenty years, I have more energy.

An iron foundry nearby attempted to remold and recast it. They added more copper [54] to strengthen it, as the sound of a bell is made according to the amount of tin or copper. For the second time a grand celebration was held with a feast on the State House lawn. The bellringer swung the clapper, and the bell rang with such a high pitched tone that they knew it would have to be recast again.

For the third time the bell was brought to the State House—but this time without a celebration. For the next several years the bell rang for every special occasion. Then when taxation by the king began to be an oppression, a Continental Con-

In 1751 the chairman of the Philadelphia State House arose with a suggestion to purchase a large bell to be placed in their steeple. The idea was accepted, and they agreed to have a bell that was larger than any other bell in the 13 colonies. But a major problem arose—no one in America could make one that large. The order for a 2000 pound bell was sent to London with a request that it be inscribed with the quotation from Leviticus 25:10: “Proclaim liberty throughout all

the land to all the inhabitants thereof.”

Finally a ship from London called “The Matilda” came into port with the mammoth bell. A large frame was built on the State House lawn so all could see it before it was placed in the steeple. A grand celebration was prepared and finally the bellringer stepped forward and raised the clapper. A loud clear tone permeated the air with a deep resonant luster. The crowd cheered. Again it rang and the people exulted. Then the third time, the bell clapper struck a deep thud. The bell

As each new taxation was imposed, the bell would ring as a signal for the Continental Congress to convene to discuss it. The bell began to ring often, as the Congress met to discuss each new tax.

Finally in 1776 the Continental Congress passed the Declaration of Independence.

There were parades, celebrations, bonfires in the streets— and the bell rang day and night.

British troops began to move in, and the bell was taken down to protect it from being smelted into British bullets. While it was being smuggled past the British in a hay wagon, the wagon broke down; and with great difficulty it was transferred to another wagon. It was safely

hidden in Allentown for a year.

When the British left Philadelphia, the State House was cleaned up and the bell was [55] again placed in the tower. Then in 1781 the American War was over; and the bell “proclaimed liberty throughout all the land to all the people.”

As the constitution became the law of the land, the bell tolled for this national celebration. After this the bell rang only seldom—for a national holiday or at the death of some famous American.

On July 8th, 1835, when Chief Justice John Marshall died, the bell was rung and again it cracked! For ten years it remained silent. Then to celebrate Washington’s

scrutinize this issue in detail, but kind of like the idea that for someone with say around a $1,600 property tax payment could slap down a $50 dollar gold eagle, or use the electronic transfer option and end up paying down the national debt even so very slightly. There would be no cost to Utah County.

Now I take the position that we need to phase out property tax as it goes against foundational elements of liberty. I will be describing some options for that on my web page and possibly in later issues of Serve Daily.

The current reality is that property tax is the rule. In light of this, it is time to take advantage of this window of opportunity to establish a system of property tax payment in Utah County that gives the option for residents to make property tax payment with gold/silver in accordance with state law. This is a local initiative that would show our support of enlightened legislative statute on the State level, and be an encouragement for the rest of the counties in Utah to follow suit. Please consider engaging in this issue. Many states are looking to Utah for our leadership regarding this critical issue.

On the 100th anniversary of this bell, it was taken down. The State House became the Hall of Independence, and the bell was named “the Liberty Bell.”

Decorated railcars carried the famous bell all over the nation to celebrate the independence of the United States.

The London Company that made the bell offered to remake it; but it had now become an American heritage.

Next to the flag, it is the most treasured symbol of American liberty. Although it is cracked, it tells freedom’s story better than if it could ring. 

Midsummer Night’s Dream at Little Brown Theatre

The Value of Service: What’s In It For Me? Lisa Freeman Student

There is a story my father loved to tell people. I’ve heard it all my life, over and over. So I was astonished today to find that the person I was talking to had never heard it. If you haven’t heard it, you should. It’s a story about attitude and point of view.

It seems that a man passed away, and arriving at the pearly gates, was invited to enter.

“But,” said St. Peter, “before you do, I want you to see where you’re not going.”

St. Peter then took the man to Hell. It wasn’t a terrible place at all! It was a beautiful banquet hall with table after table laden with the most delicious looking and smelling food the man had ever seen! But all around the tables were angry people, weeping people, miserable people.

You see, they all had long, long spoons and forks strapped to their arms. The utensils were so long that they couldn’t possibly reach their mouths. So, in the presence of a feast, they were all famished and miserable.

The man agreed with St. Peter that this was indeed an awful place, and he was grateful that he didn’t have to stay.

On the way back to Heaven, the man said, “So, no giant forks and spoons in Heaven, I’ll bet!” St. Peter smiled and said, “Oh, yes, it’ s just the same in Heaven.” The man was aghast.

“People are starving in heaven, too?” he asked. St. Peter smiled and shook his head. “Oh, no”, he said. In Heaven we feed each other.”

We all have to decide where we stand in the world. We can ask “What’s in it for me?” or we can ask, “What can I do for someone else?” Having chosen the latter path for many years, I can say with some authority that when you do things for others,

AUGUST 2012

when you commit acts of service, you will gain more than you ever imagined possible when you were asking what was in it for you.

It doesn’t have to be something big. You don’t have to give all your money to charity, or devote your entire life to ending poverty. Just brighten the corner where you are. Pay for a stranger’s coffee. Help someone change a tire. Loan a friend a few bucks till payday, and when they go to pay you back, refuse the money. Tell them to pass it along to someone else who needs it instead, and ask them to refuse to take it back, but have the next guy pass it along, too.

Help an elderly neighbor carry their groceries.

Let the joy, the relief, you see on their face be your reward.

Before long, you life will be filled with smiling faces. And all those smiling faces, all those people, will appreciate you.

They will wish only the best for you. And you will realize that all those smiling faces, all the happiness you’ve brought to others, are worth far more than any money.

You never know what act, however small it may be, will change someone’s life radically.

You may never know it did.

What you will know is joy and self respect. You will know that in your own small way you have stood with those who make the world a better place.

Bill Brown

Theatre Director The summer heat may raise Shakespeare from his grave! He hasn’t seen his Midsummer Night’s Dream done with such excitement for years! Embellished with music, his most popular play will appear this summer as a musical at the Little Brown Theatre, 248 South Main in Springville, August 10-20.

Nobody will want to miss special performances by Bottom, the Weaver (Martin Schetselaar), who sings “Roar, Roar,” to prove he can be the lion, and dances with the passion of a Jim Carey, or “I’ll Drop Flower Juice,” sung by Chris Bradford as the wily trickster Oberon.

Chris’s wife Lucy Bradford sings a gorgeous Helena, while a vocal performance graduate of BYU, Elise Behunin, stuns us all with the love song she sings when she caresses the donkey, “Come, My Love.”

Flute, the bellows mender (Parley Smith) playing Thisby, sings an irritating song to the wall, and finally thrusts a dagger through “her” heart with “Adieu, Adieu, Adieu.” Nola Smith, Parley’s wife, plays Quince, the director of the silly play.

Lysander (Dallin Bradford), and Hermia (Rachel Everett) play the lovers forbidden to marry by her father Egeus (Allan Jenni), King Theseus (Joseph Barker) and Queen Hippolyta (Taylor Stillson). And when Helena

(Lucy Bradford) loses her Demetrius (Jim Higley), the mischiefmaker and athletic wonder, Puck (Sarah Bobby Hinckley) along with fairies Peaseblossom (Sophia Schetselaar), Cobweb (Tanna Smallcomb) and three “changeling” boys (Jarom, Eli and Kimball Bradford), apply magic to the wrong lovers! Nothing gets straightened out until the king’s wedding, at which the herald (John Higley) announces that the bumbling workers will perform their silly play.

You may have seen this comedy before, but the musical version brings an additional excitement to the intimate stage at the Little Brown Theatre. Composed by novelist Marilyn Brown, and published by an eastern play publishing company, this musical version, premiering at the Villa in 1998, has now been performed nationally all the way from Australia to Vermont. The outstanding track has been

played by master pianist Larry Blackburn, from Orem, an academy teacher in Spanish Fork who has accompanied many local musicals live.

Bill Brown, the director and owner, assisted by Theatre Manager Sara Harvey, recruited Sherene Higley and her family to help with props

and tech. The play dates: (Aug. 10-20, Fri, Sat, Mon, 7:30 p.m.) will also feature two Sat. matinees at 2:00 p.m. Tickets are $10, $8, $35 for immediate family. Hotline 801-602-0478.)

Merit Academy, JUST A.S.K.?

Jill Gifford Volunteer

What started out as an ordinary literary discussion in the classroom has turned into something extraordinary at Merit College Preparatory Academy in Springville.

Last fall, English teacher, Lorena Moody, was discussing with her students examples from literary works about characters who were self absorbed and subsequently miserable. She noted with her students the change that came upon these characters when they began to reach out to help others or someone reached out to them. The characters went through a transformation and were happy when stepping out of themselves and making positive contributions to society.

Moody gave her students an assignment over the holidays to do a service for someone and write about how they

felt. The students’ acts of kindness ranged from taking dinner to a lonely man to helping a stray animal. Each student reported how good it made him or her feel to serve and help someone (or something) else. Mrs. Moody and her class decided to start a service organization at the school and ASK , Ameritus Service Knights, was born.

ASK began meeting dur-

ing lunch every Wednesday.

A lady whose husband had passed away from cancer inspired their first project. She saw the need for cancer sufferers to have something positive to help them through such difficulty. She began making uplifting quotation booklets for those suffering from cancer. ASK began making booklets like these to give to local hospital for can-

cer patients.

From there, ASK began to make file folder games and marshmallow shooters for the children at Primary Children’s Medical Center (PCMC). The shooters help those children at the hospital who need to exercise their lungs.

This project was carried over into the community during Merit Fest. Patrons to their booth could make a free shooter to give to PCMC or they could take it home for $5 and the money would be donated to Merit’s sister school, Mtulu, in Kenya.

With school out and summer in full bloom, ASK has not stopped. They are continuing to serve by volunteering at Springville Library.

During story time they are helping the kids with projects, treats, and handing out the reading program prizes.

An ongoing project ASK is working on is collecting

plastic grocery bags for Africa is Life Changing (AILC).

AILC is “volunteer humanitarian work that centers around self-sustainable programs (that) empower women and children during their time of crisis”. One program is for mothers in Africa who make handbags out of recycled grocery bags. These bags are then sold here in the states and the money is sent back to them. The money they make from selling one bag is enough to feed their family for a week. It takes 50 plastic bags to complete a handbag. ASK has been collecting them and cutting them into the measured strips needed to help these African mothers provide for their families. AILC will be bringing these materials to Africa on their next bi-annual trip.

ASK has continued to perform services throughout Merit Academy’s campus.

They have weeded school

grounds, cleaned bleachers, set up and taken down for various school venues, and cleared out the room for the students’ Internet café.

Ironically, in a world of Internet cafes and “cyber socialism”, finding teenagers who are willing to get out and give of their time and service can be near impossible. Despite the odds, Merit Academy’s ASK has made it possible.

Charles Dickens and Victor Hugo would be proud to know discussion of their fictitious characters have changed real peoples’ lives.

All you need to verify this is to read the service organization’s shirt that stemmed from it all. They simply say: Need Help? ASK. Be sure to check out subsequent issues to read about the latest ways ASK is making a difference in our community. To find out more go to www.meritacademy.org. 
