in Chemistry and Biology.
Following his undergraduate degree, Dr. Davis

new move-ins, children, youth, senior citizens,
and tourists participate in hands-on experiences
tied to different aspects of our southwestern
heritage.
A number of historic trails pass directly
through or near Iron Springs, including the Old
Spanish Trail, the Dominguez-Escalante route,
and numerous trails of explorers and pioneers.
Plans for the Heritage Center include the
development of an additional 40 miles of OHV Jay Jones
(Off Highway Vehicle) trails in the immediate
Iron Springs area, in addition to existing trails in
the surrounding area.
Partnering with many local organizations,
including Iron County schools, the SWHC will
be a resource to help individuals remember the
trails, places, and people that today’s society is
built on, while working on improving the trails,
places, and people that will make up tomorrow’s
society.
One of the projects that the SWHC is working
on is a collection of “Iron Stories” that emphasize
positive character traits, such as optimism, per-
sistence and overcoming adversity. The goal is to
make these stories available for local students to
refer to in their social studies projects.
Both old timers and newcomers to the area
are welcome to share stories and experiences
from their own lives or the lives of people they
know that teach valuable lessons. These stories
can be shared to the website, http://www.swhchs.
org/index.php/story-submission/
One of the organizations that the SWHC is
partnering with is the Southern Utah Rock Club,
which is conducting a rock-hounding tour on
Saturday, August 20 at 2 p.m. starting at the Iron
Springs Resort. A four-wheel drive or off-road
vehicle will be required for part of the tour. The
tour will conclude with a potluck barbeque. More
details of the event can be found at the club’s
website, https://www.southernutahrockclub.org
The Sons of Utah Pioneers is another group
that is partnering with the SWHC. They will
conduct a tour of about 30 historical markers in
the Cedar City and Parowan area. The tour will
follow an 9 a.m. breakfast at the outdoor pavilion
near the chapel at 1925 West 320 South in Cedar
City. All are welcome to join the breakfast and
the tour. Information about the historical mark-
ers can also be found at https://www.swhchs.org/

County Fair got off to
a muddy start last Saturday
during its annual mud run and
mud bog races in Parowan. There
was plenty of mud to go around as
spectators ran through (and threw) the
muddy rut followed by trucks, cars, side-
by-sides, a buggy and a motorcycle that
braved the treacherous trench filled
with mud. The crowds cheered and
some rain fell, but the first event
of the Fair fared well. Stay tuned
