Most people know that popping an aspirin or two is an effective way to kill a headache, ease tooth pain or to prevent a heart attack in people with clotting disorders.

Last Saturday, I had the chance, with my family, to go see Weber High School’s fall play, Newsies: The Broadway Musical.  Only one day after opening night and the cast was on fire!  What a magnificent performance! 

Mark Daniels, Weber High School’s Director, led the cast of over 130 talented students to fulfill his dream of making this production come to life. 

Inside the program under “A Note from the Director” Daniels gives many thanks to those around him.
