Morgan honors senior swimmers at Senior Night By Liisa London Mecham

Icelandic volcano scorches nearby town

ednesday, Jan. 10, the Morgan High Swim Team swam against North Summit and honored their six senior swimmers at Senior Night. Seniors Lyle Draper, Emilie Gold, Elijah Pfeifer, Brielle Sill, Connor Smith and Stella Ward were celebrated along with their parents for their contributions and hard work on the team.

After seemingly being out of the woods after the eruption north of the town of Grindavik, Iceland, another fissure opened up much closer to the town, and was, in many residents' opinions, perhaps the worst-case scenario. Though all citizens of the town had been evacuated, many of them, along with people around the world watched with dread and sadness as the lava flow slowly reached the edge of the town, and consumed at least three buildings on the outskirts. Though the lava flow on the surface has tapered off, and many homes seem safe, the magma flow beneath the surface has not slowed, according to experts. The event has spurred countless donations and several days of prayer across the small country.

Boys’ Result

The boys’ team won the 200 medley relay, the 200 freestyle relay and the 400 freestyle event. Gerrit Noorda won the 200 freestyle event, and Elijah Pfeifer won the 50 freestyle event. Levi Sill won the 100 butterfly and Connelly Breinholt won the 500 freestyle event. Breinholt clocked in at 5:57.21 on his 500 free, becoming only the 4th swimmer in MHS history to swim the 500 in under six minutes. Swimmer Daxin Witte dropped 19 seconds off his 500 free. One of the most exciting races of the day was the boys’ 200 Free Relay. The Morgan 200 Free Relay Team consisted of Kaison Berry, Axel Rollins, Gerrit Noorda, and Elijah Pfeifer. Morgan was about two body lengths behind North Summit when Noorda, the third swimmer, dove in, and narrowed the gap, drawing even as they approached the blocks. Pfeifer jumped in and swam the last lap, extending the lead and gave the Trojans the victory! North Summit finished with a 1:44.41, and Morgan finished with a 1:43.86 and the win!

Extreme cold to hit much of U.S.

Winter has been slow in coming this season but has now arrived with a vengeance. Storms continue to pound much of the nation, but that’s not all. Many news outlets have reported that this week, nearly 80% of the United States will experience colder than average temperatures, below freezing, and in some cases, below zero degrees Fahrenheit. Weather warnings have been issued across these states, encouraging people to take necessary precautions, and avoid being out in the cold for extended periods of time. Following a week of winter storm watches in the west, the east is once again bracing for winter’s impact.

Girls’ Results

Tessa Smith won the 100 butterfly, and the girls won the 400 freestyle event. In her victory in the butterfly, Tessa Smith dropped eight seconds off her 100 fly. Megan Lemon dropped a huge 23 seconds off her 200 free and eight seconds off her 100 free. Aadrie Little dropped seven seconds off her 100 free while Lizzy Bess dropped five seconds off her 100 back. Morgan swam against Ben Lomond and St. Joseph’s Tuesday, Jan. 16 and will continue to prepare for their upcoming end of season meets. l

Local legislators gear up as 45-day session begins By Becky Ginos UTAH STATE CAPITOL—With the bang of the gavel, the 2024 Legislative Session formally started on Tuesday. Before getting down to business, both the House and Senate listened to musical performances by local choirs and watched as the military color guard posted the colors. President J. Stuart Adams, R-District 7, Davis and Morgan counties and Speaker of the House Mike Schultz, R-District 12, Davis and Weber Counties gave opening remarks. “A little over 41 years ago, one of my personal heroes – President Ronald Reagan – came to Hooper, Utah,” said Adams. “I know some of you are not 41 years old, but I was there. He stood on a trailer with bales of straw and hay surrounding him. President Reagan had a vision and a will to implement the proper role of government. He concluded his remarks with these words. ‘Very simply, the policy of our administration is: This government of ours was created to be a convenience for the people, serving at the behest of the people. It was not supposed to be the master of the people.’” Adams went on to talk about four key pillars he believes will create an unshakeable foundation of success and prosperity: Energy, Education, Water and Community and Family-Friendly Culture. “Families need affordable housing, social media that is safe, adoption process that works and reasonable taxes,” he said. “We need to continue to focus on moving families out of apartments and into homes. Last year, we allocated $50 million to the firsttime homebuyer assistance program. That has changed lives! It has already helped hundreds of families purchase their first home, unlocking their American dream. And it continues to encourage builders, developers and cities to develop and build more affordable homes.”

After 52 years, Queen Margrethe II of Denmark abdicated the throne of the country, the first monarch in 900 years to do so. The title of monarch was passed to her eldest son, King Frederik X, who made his first public appearance as king just this week. Hit wife, the new Queen Consort of Denmark, Mary Donaldson, is the first Danish monarch born in Australia, the two having met at the Syndey Olympics in 2000. King Frederik X declared the motto for his reign, "United, committed, for the Kingdom of Denmark". King Frederick X’s reign marks the next succession in one of the oldest-running monarchies in the world, dating back to the 9th or 10th centuries.

Utah will continue leading the nation in protecting kids against social media, said Adams. “We will hold social media companies accountable for the harm they are inflicting upon our youth. And we will stand for our children and proudly fight the litigation.” The best way to support families is to ensure they keep as

Archaeologists have recently mapped out an ancient civilization that was originally rediscovered only 20 years ago. The city, in a section of the Amazon rainforest in Ecuador, represents a huge find in the history of not only the region but the world. The civilization dates back to 500 B.C. and includes residences, ceremonial buildings, farms, and complex roads. The level of complexity mirrors archaeological sites from the Incas and Mayas, but using much different materials and in a far different biosphere. This find, and others like it, continue to change and shape the way archaeologists and anthropologists view civilizations in the region.

Wrestlers defeat Grantsville in Dual, 55-18 Zak Sargent places 7th at Rumble By Liisa London Mecham

he Trojans traveled to Grantsville Thursday and took on the Cowboys in a Region 13 dual. Morgan came away with the victory 55-18. Friday and Saturday, the varsity and JV participated in the Rockwell Rumble, a tournament with almost 1,400 wrestlers from Utah, Nevada, New Mexico, Colorado, Idaho, and Wyoming. The Trojans’ Zak Sargent placed 7th and four wrestlers placed in the JV tournament. The Trojans hosted 5A Wasatch on Wednesday and will travel south to the Enterprise Tournament this weekend. Next week Morgan will host Juab Wednesday for Senior Night on Jan. 24 and will travel to Kamas for their final Region 13 dual Thursday, Jan. 25. The dual at South Summit will decide the Region 13 Championship. In the Trojans’ 55-18 victory over the Cowboys, all of the wrestlers won with bonus points. Seven wrestlers won by pin, two by tech fall, and one by major decision. At the Rumble, Sargent (190 pounds) advanced to the quarterfinals on three wins by fall. In the quarters, he lost a 7-3 decision to Payson’s Landon Shurtleff. He came back in the consolation bracket with a pin over Brayden Evans from Beaver before losing a close 4-3 decision to Olympus’ Andre Leota. This loss put Sargent in the 7th Place Match where he won by a 4-3 decision over True Tobiasson of Fruita Monument (CO). In the JV Rumble, Lance Toone (175) pinned his way to a first-place finish while Joseph Belinski (157) earned third, Carter Meibos (165) took fifth, and Nate Dotson (150) placed seventh. Meibos lost in the first round and then won

Shot at four straight for Morgan boys hoops falls short, but finish week with a W By Brian Shaw

hey say good things come in threes. For the Morgan boys basketball team, four would’ve been dandy. But the Trojans opened their Region 13 campaign by falling to Ogden by the final score of 74-65, Jan. 10. Morgan [6-8, Region 13 1-1] knocked down several threes to start the game but trailed 16-17 after one quarter of action. A back-and-forth tussle ensued from end to end in the second quarter, as the Trojans and Ogden battled to a 25-25 standstill with 3:25 to play in the first half. Liberal substitutions and a breakneck pace contributed to a physical game on both ends of the floor. The Trojans fought hard to crack the deficit for most of the second quarter thanks to several step-back threes from Kolton Asay. Several other turnovers in the backcourt led to open layups on the other end for Ogden though. An and-one further seemed to disrupt any rhythm Asay was trying to create for Morgan, who trailed by seven, 32-39 at the break. In the third quarter of this region opener for both teams, Morgan continued to ride the hot hand of Asay, who splashed his fifth and sixth threes of the

game. The Trojans trailed at the end of three, 52-59. A three-point play by Nik Preece cut the Trojans’ deficit to six at 59-65 midway through the fourth quarter. But, three missed shots at the free throw line and three no-calls on several floaters that appeared to be fouls on Ogden in the final three minutes turned out to be the difference between making it four wins out of four for Morgan. Asay led all Trojans with 27 points, while Saunders dropped 21. Saunders also had five assists, three rebounds and two steals. Nik Preece had eight points for Morgan, while Mason Williams was a force on both ends of the floor, contributing five points, eight rebounds and two blocks. Ben Russell had two points, four rebounds and two steals. Two nights later at Grantsville, the Trojans would earn their first win in Region 13 play and perhaps begin another winning streak. Morgan led 18-9 at the end of one and upped the lead to 35-21 at the half in a 67-48 win where the Trojans got back to raining threes as a team. They also shot 16-for-17 from the line and got 22 points from Jake Hansen, 16 from Saunders and 11 from Asay to round out the week. l

Win gives Lady Trojans nice start to Region 13 play By Brian Shaw

or the Morgan Lady Trojans, a win to open this Region 13 slate of games was sorely needed. And they got just that, defeating Ogden 52-41 on Jan. 9. Victories have not been easy to come by for the defending 3A champions. But a solid outing in which Abby Titus scored 16 points will help. Kaydence Wardell added nine and Eva Birkeland seven. Back at home two nights later versus red-hot Grantsville January 11, Morgan [311, Region 13 1-1] gave the 2-loss Cowboys all they could handle but lost by the final score of 58-71. Trailing by three points, 18-21 after one quarter, the Lady Trojans could never find their footing in the second quarter either as Eva Birkeland [12 points] quickly picked up her third foul. Grantsville’s length and shooting from the perimeter pushed Morgan’s deficit out to seven, 2532, with 3:49 to play in the first half. More foul trouble before halftime put the Trojans in a 12-point hole by the score of 31-43. At the 3:17 mark of the third quarter, however, Morgan was able to get the ball down low and into Brewer more, which helped. But missed free throws kept it at 12 points going into the fourth quarter. A foul on Leah Birkeland led to three free throws, which she converted, cutting the lead to nine with 4:47 to play in the

game. With Grantsville’s star player saddled by four fouls, the Lady Trojans went right at her. A no-call on Grantsville on an apparent turnover led to the visitors getting the ball under Morgan’s basket. Then, a missed layup and a tie-up gave Grantsville the ball back. After Grantsville missed a three-point attempt, Coach Sterling Mack’s UNLV-esque run-and-gun hit the floor running, as Leah went coast to coast, jack-knifing her way into traffic for a layup with 4:13 to play. After battling all night long, the Lady Trojans had a sliver of daylight. They were only down 53-59 with 4:08 to go in the game. One free throw by Grantsville led to a quick fast break in transition, as Leah again got the contact, scored and no foul was called. Trailing by just five at 55-60 with 3:08 to go, the Lady Trojans had hope. But Grantsville’s star player, who had been dealing with foul trouble for most of the evening inside Morgan’s home gym, scored the next five points including a dagger three. For Morgan, Eva and Keira Brewer each led the way with 12 points. Leah tied her season-high with 11 points while Ashlyn Noss, eight. Kaydence Wardell pitched in seven points and three steals. l

MMS fifth graders learn skills for their future at JA City By Verlene Johnson

eing able to act like a grown up for a day might possibly be every child's dream. Morgan Middle School fifth grade teachers help this become a reality through Junior Achievement. Teachers present mini-lessons during Social Studies on finances such as balancing a checkbook, basic financial needs and how money circulates through their community. Then it is time for them to learn about being an entrepreneur and having a career. Every student applies for a job, is interviewed by parents, then teachers assign a job for each student. All this in preparation to attend JA City, formerly known as JA BizTown located in the Gateway in Salt Lake City. In addition, a mayoral election is held where a student is elected for the day. This years’ mayor was Beau Phillips. l DURING THEIR BREAK, students were able to eat their lunch, cash their checks then visit other store fronts to make purchases and see how other business run.

STUDENTS WORK as bank as tellers while other students learn how to make a transaction cashing their checks that they worked for.

STUDENTS GET a first hand look at how large companies run on a day-to-day basis.

WHILE THEY DIDN’T SELL chicken and fries, students learned how to be cashiers and customers.

things they want to do.” Birkeland is also running HB257 Sex-based Designations for Privacy, Anti-bullying and Women’s Opportunities and HB289 Property Rights Ombudsman Amendments. “The bill (HB257) is to make sure we accommodate for privacy in schools,” she said. “Nobody should have to do private things in public places (restrooms).” The privacy plan is to help kids who might have questions about their identity or who are being bullied that need a more private place, said Birkeland. “This bill would require schools that are being rebuilt or are being built to provide single stalls.” Those who are opposed see it as anti something, she said. “It’s not anti anything it’s pro privacy for everyone.” HB289 is an important one for property owners, said Birkeland. “In the three districts I represent it’s a big deal – really anywhere around the state. It allows property owners who have received a violation to have an ombudsman. It’s helpful for citizens so they don’t have to take on the government alone.” As a land/property owner, it’s hard to stand up for their rights, she said. “This levels the playing field.” l

As with any cut, we will measure twice, cut once, and act reasonably, with an eye to the future.” Rep. Kera Birkeland, R-District 4, Morgan, Rich and Summit Counties, is running a few bills that may become controversial but that Birkeland feels are important. One that has already become a point of contention is a bill that would bring the lottery to Utah. “It came from the majority of my constituents that want to reduce property taxes and put a cap on property tax for senior citizens,” she said. “Utah residents are driving to other states for the lottery. My research shows Utahns are spending as much as $200 million a year in lottery tickets. We could use that money here to reduce or eliminate property taxes.” There has been opposition in the Senate and by the governor, said Birkeland. have a follow up bill, using MORGAN COUNTY“INEWS Since 1929

yndi McMillan was raised in Morgan and graduated from Morgan High School. She attended Utah State University graduating with an Associate of Science December 2017. After being a stay-at-home mom for 20 years, McMillan found herself working as an aide in Morgan School District Elementary Schools in the Special Needs Preschools. “I have always loved learning and teaching kids, so I decided to get my teaching degree and become a teacher,” she commented. She is currently teaching Kindergarten parttime in the Mountain Green Elementary School where she team teaches with Jane Golson. “I have the cutest kindergarten class,” McMillan claims. “If one of my students sees me around town, they are always so excited to say “Hi!” It makes me feel like a celebrity! I hope the students in my class feel that much love from me every day at school.” McMillan will graduate from Western Governors University with a Bachelor of Arts in Elementary Education in February. After meeting her husband Scott in high school, there has been an ongoing

debate about whether she waited for him to come home from his mission or not; however, they did get married when he returned home. Together they have six “amazing’ kids. “Like everyone else, we’ve had setbacks and heartaches in life, but we still feel like we are living the dream,” she said. In her spare time, McMillan loves to play the piano, read books, watch Hallmark movies, mow her lawn and take walks to visit with her neighbors. “I like to spend time with my kids and three grandchildren,” said McMillan. She also likes to volunteer in the community and at church. Her dream vacation is sitting on a warm beach reading a great book. l

VFW Voice of America Essay

How America Inspires Me

What Are the Greatest Attributes of Our Democracy?

America inspires me in many ways, from the freedom to vote and equal opportunity to all the other good things we have in this country. As a middle schooler, there have been lots of thoughts about America that have impressed me. In this essay, I will be sharing some reasons why America inspires me. First of all, I love how whenever bad things happen in America there is always a way to fix it, even though it might seem impossible. Bill Clinton, the 42nd President of the United States, said, “There is nothing wrong with America that cannot be cured with what is right in America.” Sometimes there can be challenges in the world, for instance, world disaster, wars, and military conflicts, but no matter what happens it can always be cured and fixed. Next, America inspires me by its independence. Back before July 4, 1776 we didn’t have any freedom or options to do what we wanted, like voting and not getting to pick what was right to us. But now we have the opportunity to vote when we are eighteen for whom we want to be head of the republic, to speak up for ourselves, and live as we want and not be made slaves or controlled by anyone else. Starting with the Declaration of Independence, which was adopted by the Continental Congress on July 4th, 1776, and through the Revolutionary war, we gained our freedom. Because of the Constitution and its amendments, now we all get treated equally regardless of our race or gender. Independence inspires me by allowing me to be what I want to be and live how I want to live. Finally, America inspires me because we can achieve a better life through hard work and determination. A great American leader, General Colin Powell once said, “A dream does not become reality through magic; it takes sweat, determination, and hard work.” You can’t be lazy one something and then expect to get rewarded. America inspires me because it teaches us that we can’t get anything good for not putting any sweat, determination, and hard work into something. In America, hard work pays off. In conclusion, America inspires me in many ways. From our independence and our ability to fix challenges, to the way people can have their dreams if they work hard, America truly is an inspirational country. We fought wars and overcame challenges for our freedom. We should always be grateful for how people fought and risk their life for our freedom and never take freedom for granted in our life. I am grateful and inspired to live “in the land of the free, and the home of the brave.” Brookly Hoffmann 2nd place winner

Over the past years of our nation's history, we have strived to create a society encompassed with unalienable freedoms. With the formation of new communities, institutions, and companies, we endeavor to align our policies with equality. Efforts to ensure our rights are acknowledged and upheld have reached honorable measures. Many expend countless hours to guarantee our country is flowing with opportunities for growth, mutualism, and success. However, this nation we call home wouldn’t contain our democracy, brimming with various freedoms, if it wasn’t for the formation of a unique and noteworthy document - The Constitution. But what makes the Constitution such a valued standard of living? Embedded in our constitution are lists of profound rights, truths, and motivations that continuously increase our patriotism toward the principle of freedom. Each phrase is fabricated with descriptive details and astonishing philosophies to establish peaceful conduct. That being said, one of our country's greatest ideologies of democratic freedoms can be found in the First Amendment. It reads, “Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech; or of the press; or the right of the people to peaceably assemble, and to petition the Government for a redress of grievances.” Freedom of religion protects an individual’s or community's right to manifest their religion or belief in worship, observance, or practice, either in public or private settings. This concept points out that many religions may be present in the country, and people are permitted to choose which one they would like to follow. Concerning freedom of speech, this amendment assures the right to form ideas and share opinions openly and to speak and write freely without facing punishment, interference, or retaliation from the government. We have the right to compare our theories for refining purposes, give feedback on governmental procedures, and develop different viewpoints to express ourselves. Along with our freedom to declare our words through innumerable methods, we have the right to publish and dissipate information and thoughts on matters without censorship or governmental restraint. We observe this as journalists report on public interests, the press publicizes crucial information to citizens, and the media communicates the country's needs to our government officials. Another indicator of our democratic freedoms is the right to collectively assemble peacefully to hold meetings, rallies, strikes, or even protests to promote or defend shared interests and ideas. These assemblies raise awareness in the country to advocate for change; whether that be in policy, political status, human rights, or any other issue that may be presented. Concluding this amendment is the right to petition the government for a redress of grievances; specifically meaning people can ask the government to provide relief from a political issue or to fix a wrong by governmental action. Giving power to the people to establish our government permits awareness of our country’s problems , no matter what the magnitude, to be solved. Each freedom recorded in the First Amendment is a fundamental cornerstone of our democracy. Every moment we reside in this country, we are granted with undeniable rights that determine our daily lives. Unfortunately, this is not the case for many countries around the world. Oftentimes, our country overlooks the realities many people encounter within their societies. Similarly, just like the freedoms listed in the First Amendment become second nature to us, it becomes normal for us to expect these freedoms to be offered to everyone who desires them. According to the Economist Intelligence Unit (EIU), 55% percent of the world does not live in a democracy. That gives a range of 45% of countries worldwide that exercise a different type of government. These governments include monarchy, totalitarianism, authoritarianism, and many more governments that do not establish the same freedoms as the United States. We observe Russia, China, North Korea, Afghanistan, and many other countries enforcing these governments in their rule. Prohibition of all opposing parties and ideology, outlawing individual opposition tostate claims, and disregarding people’s rights - giving the government virtually unlimited powerare just a few examples of harsh governments that form others’ quality of life. However, building upon our country’s freedoms, we have unlimited opportunities to adapt to new suggestions, proposals, and plans for the future. We can publish our ideas to expand our previous knowledge, we can worship in any religion that holds our values, we are permitted to share our thoughts without repercussion, we can assemble in any setting for the exchanging of ideas, and we are allowed to examine questions we have within our government. Each component of our First Amendment creates a circulation of communication, action, and peace that has promoted our country. We should never forget our freedoms and always rely on them to forge our society. These principles are what make us who we are - who we are as a country, society, government, and people. We should never cease to stray from what we hold close to our hearts regarding the freedoms we enjoy. Our democracy has become one of the greatest to exist because of the rights observed in the first amendment of our constitution. Aly Spagnuolo 2nd place

BIDS TOO HIGH FOR MORGAN COUNTY ROAD PROJECT

Bids for the graveling of 4.56 miles of highway between Morgan and Porterville were submitted to the state road commission at the capitol Friday afternoon. Olaf Nelson of Logan was the lowest bidder, his bid being $16,605; while the engineer’s estimated cost of the project was $12,559.60. Due to the disparity between the estimate and the bid members of the road commission decided to take the matter under advisement before making any award.

Morgan power foreman named UAMPS Employee of the Year By Linda Petersen

organ City’s power department foreman Clark Crook was recently named Utah Associated Municipal Power Systems (UAMPS) Employee of the Year. UAMPS is a nonprofit organization made up of 50 municipal power providers from Utah, Arizona, California, Idaho, Nevada, New Mexico, and Wyoming. He was nominated for the award by City Manager Ty Bailey. Crook has more than 27 years of experience in the power industry. Prior to joining Morgan City’s staff a year ago, he spent more than 10 years as Salem City’s power superintendent. He was recognized Dec. 12 at the UAMPS annual conference in Salt Lake City. “Beyond his job description, in the absence of a public works director he stepped into the role seamlessly showcasing versatility and dedication,” the award presenter said that evening, reading from the nomination. “He has taken on responsibility for their public works facilities, managed a grant to put backup generators at Morgan’s critical buildings, helped with very challenging personnel issues, taken on fleet management, oversaw the remodel of the public works shop, cleaned up and helped surplus old equipment and served as the alternate representative for amps…Clark's commitment to going above and beyond not only enhances the operational image of Morgan's power department but also sets an exemplary standard for his colleagues. He is the team member who consistently raises the bar inspiring others to strive for excellence.”

SPORTS PREDICTIONS On Jan. 19, I think Morgan High School boys basketball will beat the first South Summit Wildcats. I think the score will be Morgan - 76 to South Summit - 75. I think the first quarter will be Morgan - 17 to South Summit - 16. I think the half will be South Summit - 34 to Morgan - 33. You can watch the game at 6:50 pm on the Morgan Sports Network. The scores with South Summit are here • 2022-23 Morgan - 56 to South Summit - 50 • 2021-22 South Summit - 68 to Morgan - 60 • 2020-21 Morgan - 56 South Summit - 43 • 2019-2020 South Summit - 85 to Morgan - 73 • 2018-19 Morgan - 54 to South Summit - 42 • 2017-18 Morgan - 51 to South Summit - 31 • 2015-16 Morgan - 70 to South Summit - 57 • 1999-2000 Morgan - 61 to South Summit - 47 The current South Summit High coach is named Norm Hayter. He was also a coach for Wasatch in 2008-2011.

On Jan. 9 at a city council meeting, Mayor Steve Gale praised Crook and thanked him for his service before presenting him with the UAMPS plaque. Afterward Crook thanked Gale, members of the city council, and Bailey for their support, something he said had been lacking in some of his previous positions. “None of this would have happened really nor would we be here had not you guys had the idea to go forward with your power system and be able to support it the way you have,” he said. “In my other job, I had to beg and plead to get substation equipment and Ty says, ‘Just get it done.’ You know we rebuilt substations and got necessary equipment that helps that reliability so that so when you flip the switch it [works]. The struggles that I had in other entities aren't ones that we've had to backlog with here, so you ought to be commended for that.” “You guys have got some wonderful leadership here and you’ve got great employees and Ty does an awesome job leading us,” he added. City council members also commended Crook for his efforts. “Well done Clark and congratulations and thank you Ty for making the nomination too,” Dave Alexander said. “It was well deserved and good recognition.” “I appreciate you taking some time to answer some of my silly questions,” Tony London said. “I know they’re probably pretty stupid questions but you're very patient in answering those questions.”l

Capital improvements and Mental Health – School Board Update By Gwen Romero Public Information Officer

inter is here. But, winter storm warnings didn’t keep members away from this month’s meeting of the Morgan School District Board of Education. Here are your highlights. Out with the old, and in with the new . . . gym at Morgan Middle School. The Small School District Capital Project Panel has awarded MCSD funds to replace the east gym. Member Preece reminisced about using that gym when he was in school (it was built in 1924). The district has been looking for ways to update the gym, and replacing it is more cost-effective than the needed repairs. Next, board members discussed the recent Utah School Boards Association Conference. Key takeaways from their sessions included the impacts of AI in public education, school safety legislation including increased use of resource officers and “guardians” in school, and student mental health needs and services. These and other topics will be ongoing parts of discussions and professional development in our schools. As Member Toone noted, “It’s not just getting kids to school and getting them education.

There’s a lot more to it.” On those same lines, MMS is piloting a zero cell phones in class policy that has already shown promise as students are more engaged overall and math and other scores have improved. This is a valuable case study for us as the governor and legislature look to limit students’ cell phone use and social media access due to their negative impacts on student learning and mental health. At MHS, HOPE Squad is promoting positive mental health through the SELFIE method (see https://mhs-counseling-center-home.my.canva.site/ the-selfie-method ). This month, they are focused on encouraging students to get more sleep. “It’s really important to focus on mental health, especially during these dreary months,” Student school board member Chloe Clark said.

he Morgan Chapter of the Sons of the Utah Pioneers started off the new year with the January monthly luncheon. It was again catered, with a wonderful meal provided by Larry’s Spring Chicken Inn. This month, the chapter honored the annual High School Pioneer Heritage Essay contest winners. The three students, who were in attendance along with their parents, were selected from approximately 70 other students. The essays, about a literal pioneer ancestor or someone who has exemplified the pioneer spirit that has influenced them, were evaluated by a panel of judges. First place and awarded $300 was Kyler Smith, son of Aaron and Shauna Smith. Second place was Isabella Pincock, daughter of John and Penny Pincock. She received a $200 check. The third-place essay was written by Mireille Nelson, daughter of Blake and Crystal Nelson, receiving a $100 check. “We congratulate these outstanding students and their efforts to research their heritage and write about ancestors who have had an impact on their lives.” All three finalists read their amazing stories to the group. High school English teacher Gwen Romero, who helps coordinate the contest, shared her appreciation for the Morgan Chapter of the SUP for sponsoring this essay contest and shared how much the students gain from the experience. These stories help the students “shape their understanding of the world and their understanding of themselves.” It gives them identity and helps them learn resilience and what they are capable of doing. The pioneer minute was this meeting was presented by chapter member Stan Stevens who introduced himself to the members and related the story of his 3rd great-grandfather, Robert Fredrick Aldous an early immigrant to Utah from England. l

Most difficult bridge project: Croydon bridge reopens after long construction With all its complications, Heiner’s favorite part was the last 60 days watching it come together. The hardest was the drilling. Thinking it would never end at the moment, what would have taken two to three weeks pounding in the shafts, it took almost three months drilling it in. Along the way of drilling, the crew ran into unplanned soil conditions that would “heave and push out the shafts” resulting in the need to over-drill, put in rocks so it would hold, and repeat the process 29 times. Morgan County Public Works Director for the past six years, Heiner used to work for UDOT bringing to the table a plethora of skills, experiences, and talent. This background has proved invaluable and still led Heiner to dub the project the “worst time in 40 years to build the toughest bridge in the state.” No choice to build it when water level is as low as you can get it, winter is the only time for construction. When starting in 2022 and closing it down Nov. 15, 2022, there was no way of predicting the unprecedented moisture that Utah would garner in the upcoming season. The bridge should have been overtopping but a bullet was dodged with the warming up then cooling down pattern that kept flooding from occurring. With the most recorded snowpack since 1983, reservoirs had to let water out water sooner around March 15 which kicked construction out of the river much earlier than planned and delayed the April 1 expected completion. Hence, it was temporarily open July 1 to Nov. 6 before finally closing down and finishing this year! “The Croydon Bridge opening last week has been a great blessing to many,” enthused local Croydon resident Allison Erickson. “We have patiently awaited this day since Nov. 2023! I noticed today that work is beginning on the second day half which is encouraging that the entire project will be done soon! We appreciate all the workers who have been so patient in ensuring it's done correctly. Despite setbacks last year we have learned as a community to be patient and realize that there are much bigger problems than having to take a detour that adds 10 min onto your commute!” The Croydon bridge should be completely finished within the next three weeks. l

By Olivia Rees

uilt in 1930 with a life expectancy of 70 to 80 years, the Croydon Bridge was in critical shape needing to be replaced as it was deteriorating having seen just shy of 100 years of existence. Heavily trafficked as the main road for the Holcim Devil's Slide Cement Plant and residents in Croydon, this bridge sees about 100 cement trucks a day and upwards of 220 trucks a day during the summer according to Public Works Director Bret Heiner. Aware of the conditions, plans to reconstruct the bridge have been in the works for the past seven years, in design for five years, and then finally started construction in 2022. With a variety of unseen challenges between preexisting infrastructure and Mother Nature, the Croydon Bridge is now, as of Jan. 8, 3:15 p.m., ready for the rumble of tires to once again be going across. The new bridge is very similar to the old bridge that was constructed of concrete pylons and rebar. The new bridge is built with concrete and rebar but there are steel pylons filled with concrete and rebar that will enable a lengthy 80 to 100 year life span. A slight difference in the actual construction is the shafts go deeper into the ground. Further, the bridge was raised on the East end by four feet to allow for more water flow but the west side remains unchanged in height. The combination of materials used and the depth of the shafts is the reason these types of bridges, particularly the Croydon Bridge, can handle the wear and tear of the daily traffic along with the amount of water flow presented by the Weber River. The challenges of this bridge project superseded many of what Heiner has seen in his day with a million dollars spent solely during the design process. Funded through federal grants and managed by both state and county, the Wadsworth Brothers contracted for the project for what Heiner commented was probably one of the most complicated designs in the state with a guarantee the workers will never forget it because of the level of the difficulty. The bridge is required to be lower because of the nearness of the railroads, not to mention the difficulty of building “a bridge in a live

river that never gives you a break,” said Heiner. Having to divert the river over during construction, there was also the difficulty of train traffic. There are two sets of tracks on the South side which are the main tracks going through America, and also tracks on the North side that lead to the cement plant allowing the plant to ship cement out. For safety, it was mandated for construction to halt and workers to get out of equipment when trains passed by so the equipment would not tip onto the tracks and impede

its journey. With 12 to 24 trains a day, it could end up taking half the day in production. The railroad traffic was only part of the complications that came with being located right next to the railroad. Restraints were put in place because where the shafts are usually pounded into the ground, as done with the new Morgan bridge, the railroad would not allow that because of the proximity of the shafts. The alternative was drilling which was what really slowed the project down.

Hollywood Q&A

By Adam Thomlison TV Media

Q: Ryan Reynolds did such a great job with the singing and dancing in “Spirited.” Has he ever been on stage? Will he be in any more musicals coming up?

A: Ryan Reynolds (“Deadpool,” 2016) had next to no experience with musical numbers prior to “Spirited,” the 2022 musical version of the classic story of Ebeneezer Scrooge. And though he’d probably be pleased to hear you thought

he did well, he seems less convinced and is unlikely to become a song-and-dance man any time soon. While doing press to promote the film in late 2022, he spent a lot of time talking down his musical skills. All of his previous musical performances, he said, were done for laughs — see, for example, his rendition of Wham’s “Careless Whisper” over the credits of his 2016 action-comedy “Deadpool” or shrilly singing the R&B classic “It Takes Two” in his 2009 rom-com “The Proposal.” He offered one exception: an appearance in a South Korean version of “The Masked Singer” in 2018, before the show became a phenomenon in the U.S. “So I was thinking this is an obscure South Korean show. No one’s ever going to see this or know about this,” Reynolds told USA Today. “I thought, there’s my

singing career — beginning, middle and end — all in three minutes. Little did I know.”

Q: What can you tell me about the guy who played Sherm on “Grand Crew”? What’s he doing now? (Sadly, I know it’s been canceled.) A: I’m glad I’m not the one to break the news to you. Two-season NBC sitcom “Grand Crew” did indeed air its last episode in April 2023 — sad news for fans, but it left its cast members free to pursue new projects. That includes improv comedian Carl Tart, who played Sherm Jones. It was the biggest on-screen role for Tart, whose resume has tended more toward writing (as a writer on “Mad TV” in the mid-2010s, for example).

But he’s definitely landed on his feet since “Grand Crew” ended. First, he had a role in the feature-length comedy “Old Dads” late last year. But more notably, he has a series-regular role in a new series that’s just released on the Peacock streaming service, (it premiered all six episodes of its first season Jan. 25). “In the Know” is an animated comedy about “public radio’s third most popular interview program.” It is co-written by and co-starring animation legend Mike Judge, the guy who gave us “Beavis and ButtHead” and “King of the Hill.” Tart’s role is a sound engineer named Carl (which is at least convenient for line reading).

Celebrity Profile

By Jay Bobbin TV Media

Jennifer Nettles is still making music, as she proved with her recent performance at the Daytime Emmy Awards, but she continues to embrace career variety. The Grammy-winning singer-songwriter, who came to fame as half of the country music duo Sugarland, returns to help counsel four rustic fellows on a number of metropolitan marital options as “Farmer Wants a Wife” starts its second season on Fox, Thursday, Feb. 1. This time, the farmers in question are from Missouri, Tennessee, Colorado and Florida … and as Nettles goes to their home bases, she learns anew that romance can surmount barriers of location and upbringing if the love match is right. Nettles also appeared in last fall’s movie “The Exorcist: Believer,” so she clearly is game to tackle different projects as they come up, but music still is a huge part of her menu. At December’s Daytime Emmys, she gave vocal backing to the “In Memoriam” segment that was led by a tribute to journalism icon Barbara Walters. It put Nettles back on television in a month when she had hosted the annual “CMA Country Christmas” special for several years. The appearance also reaffirmed Nettles’ current pursuits as a solo talent, though she has said that her ventures with Sugarland partner Kristian Bush aren’t necessarily over. Along with former member Kristen Hall, they formed the group in 2003, and the trio scored such hits as “Baby Girl” and “Something More.” Nettles and Bush continued to enjoy tandem success with tunes including “Want To” and “Stay,” before they went their separate ways in 2012 (though they reunited briefly several years later).
