FAMILY

For those who do not wish to let sleep get in the way of important endeavors, the American West Heritage Center is offering its first all-nighter: a marathon scrapbooking party. Local scrapbooking dealers will be on hand to sell supplies as scrapbooking enthusiasts work to get their family memories up to date in fanciful ways. Participants are provided with a workspace and a "camping" space in the Heritage Center's Opera House in which to sleep--if sleep is ever gotten to. A light dinner and snacks are included, with other food available at low cost for other meals. The event begins at 2 pm on Friday, August 20 and continues until 5 pm on the 21st. Limited space is available and can be obtained by reservation: (435) 245-6050 . Tickets for the event are $30.

"Our goal at the Heritage Center is to preserve memories--the heritage of our area," claimed Anjanette Dahle, Programming Coordinator. "This event is an off shoot of that mission: we want to help other preserve their personal memories and their own family heritage."
