Northern Utah was in many ways a Crossroads long before the emigrants, settlers, railroad and military came here. As early as pre-Fremont Native Americans, we find evidence of trails and trade routes across this geographic area. The trappers and traders, both English and American, knew the area and crisscrossed it following many of the Native American trails. They also established new routes. Explorers sought additional routes to avoid natural barriers such as the mountains and the Great Salt Lake. As emigrants and settlers traveled west, knowledge of the area spread. The Crossroads designation was permanently established once the Railroad spanned the nation.

Jane and I did get away for some of the bad weather. We spent mid-March to mid-April traveling down south, Memphis to see Pete Wasmund, Texas to visit the Stott’s and Florida to visit the Oulman’s and Davis’s. Also, three weeks in Pompano Beach playing golf. Not quite a pity party. The 2019 Reunion has been delayed one day due to allowing folks to attend the Easter Holiday with family and friends. If you have already made your advance reservations, contact the Clarion Hotel and update your reservation. The Clarion phone number is 800-725-2236 or 417-334-7666. The revised Reunion dates are April 23rd thru 28th. We’re sorry for the confusion, Sally and I discussed the change and thought this was the best way to proceed. Sally has put together a great reunion with very good hotel rates, so please forgive the confusion and plan on a wonderful time in Branson. I received an email from an old friend I served with in VW-11 Newfoundland about the Willy Victor Reunion at Willow Run Airport, Ypsilanti, Mich.

One of the great things about this country is that a group of people can gather to discuss issues of the day and question government policy. The sad thing about the current situation is that we had to come together at all. By all accounts the conference was a big success. Most importantly, it was the first major discussion by Honoring the Past the Connecticut Library community since the War on Terrorism was declared. This war poses great challenges, especially for that particular American invention, the free public “Fighting Bob” 6-7 library, a bulwark of intellectual freedom. The topic and the speakers were so provocative Long Lane Industrial 8-9 as to cause at least one attendee to question our patriotism. Questioning law Schools for Girls enforcement tactics or the intentions of national leaders is certainly legitimate. The program was not about foiling law enforcement’s efforts to protect our security. Rather it was a wakeup call for librarians and library trustees to not blindly yield to efforts, Creating the Future however well intentioned and intoned, that compromise the very freedoms that define Electronic Journals 3 our country.

  • SEPTEMBER 2017 (Continued from Previous Page)
    13 9 number ISSUE 145 TABLE OF CONTENTS PRESIDENT’S MESSAGE The National Society of the Sons of Utah Pioneers was incorporated in 1933 as a fraternity of men dedicated to honor and to preserve the principles and ideals for which the Pioneers stood. Their desire was not only to look back, but to live their lives as a basis for the future. Since the time of that organization the National Society has sought to make the benefits of membership operable in small units, which are designated as chapters. There are currently 46 active chapters. The first National Encampment was held August 10 -11, 1935 under the direction of Lawrence T. Epperson, the first National President. The idea of the annual “Encampment” took root and has served as a chief stabilizing factor to hold the organization together. Each year since then association chapters have gathered together in an encampment/convention to learn, associate, and celebrate the original pioneer trek from Nauvoo to the Salt Lake Valley in 1847. Up until about 10 years ago this gathering was known as the SUP encampment and then for some reason (I have not been able to find) the name was changed to be known as the “SUP convention”. (Continued On Following Page) 1 SEPTEMBER 2017 (Continued From Previous Page) After many months of discussion, The National Executive Council feels that we should move back to the original “Ideals and Purposes” of the Association, beginning with the yearly gathering.
