Harrisville

There will be no municipal elections this year in Harrisville. Those will be next year while the Weber county elections will be held in November. The council passed a new home- occupation ordinance at the July 22 meeting.

Harrisville- Different varieties of vegetables are growing very well out at the Harrisville Crops Welfare Project and will soon be on their way to the Bishops’ storehouse and different food banks to help out those who otherwise wouldn’t be able to have fresh produce. The garden is one of many different gardens, farms, and orchards that are owned and operated by The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints as part of its welfare and humanitarian programs. All of the produce grown at these centers is made available to help others at no cost.

NORTH OGDEN—On August 7th, with the kickoff of the Weber County Rodeo, competitors brought their delicate touch to showcase their skills at the Maw Equipment Backhoe Rodeo.  Twenty-eight people competed for cash prizes trying to move items such as eggs and bowling pins. The goal was to pick up the objects and place them in the correct spot without breaking them, which is quite the challenge with something as small and breakable as an egg.

Weber State University Center for Community Engaged Learning (CCEL) is partnering with the Olene Walker Institute and the American Democracy Project (ADP) to celebrate the signing of the Constitution with a week-long celebration beginning September 15, 2014.

Weber County- Do you remember or have ever heard of the Ogden Rodeo Band?  Most of us would say no.  With the Pioneer Days coming up, Jerry Harrop likes to share his knowledge about a piece of history about the band.

The Union Pacific Band was organized for forty years touring the U.P. Railroad system back in the late 1800’s/early 1900’s. The band was composed of local, talented musicians; later becoming the Ogden Rodeo Band.

The nationwide Common Core educational standard sticks in the political craw of a number of Utah Republican legislators.

How’s this for a radical idea?

Reject the waiver/federal funding for George Bush’s No Child Left Behind – now widely condemned by Republicans across the land and in Utah – fund the lost federal money to the tune of $26 million, if need be, and see the behinds of both Common Core and No Child Left Behind.

Residents came out in full support of Harrisville’s disc golf tournament on May 24.

The tournament took place at the Harrisville City Park located at 1350 North Hwy 89.
