PIONEER TREK WITH MA AND PA, DUP STYLE!For the March meeting of the Salt Lake East Bench

Company, we had a pioneer trek complete with Ma and Paand a handcart! We gathered in the chapel foyer of TheChurch of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints meeting housewhere we were greeted by Ma and Pa. They led us into thecultural hall where we stopped at 10 locations to hear from apioneer ancestor along the trek — Nauvoo, Kanesville/CouncilBluffs, Winter Quarters, Elk Horn River, Fort Laramie,Crossing the Sweetwater, Independence Rock, Martin’s Cove,Rocky Ridge, and Fort Bridger. With violin accompaniment,we sang Come, Come Ye Saints as we were led into thechapel. There we heard from Spencer J. Condie, emeritusgeneral authority and former president of the NauvooTemple. He shared stories from the early Nauvoo era. Weended with refreshments of warm rolls with homemade honeybutter and jams with milk to drink.

ADAMS CABIN – KAYSVILLE HERITAGE PARKIn the summer of 2016, the Davis Kaysville Company,

Kaysville, Utah took on the project of moving an authenticpioneer cabin to the Kaysville Heritage Park. The cabin hadbeen built in 1877 by George Pilling Adams shortly after hismarriage to Ann Eliza Forbes. As their family expanded, so didthe cabin, but only the original part was moved and restored.It is open three days a week during the summer. Rather thancreating a museum, the goal of the DUP was to provide a“hands-on” place where residents, especially children, couldlearn about and experience life in pioneer times. They do

laundry, make rag dolls, play games, discover the Deseretalphabet, and take time to imagine how their lives might havebeen had they lived in that era. There were more than 900visitors during 2018. It was gifted to Kaysville City and theKaysville DUP ladies volunteer with the teaching and activities.

DRY CREEK CAMPDry Creek Camp, Utah Lehi Company in Lehi, Utah

celebrated the launching of the historical fiction novel, “TheStrength of the Hills” written by our own Karen PetersonMosley. Karen’s 3rd great grandparents, Philippe and MartheCardon, joined The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saintsin their homeland in the Italian Alps after hearing the messageof the gospel from Lorenzo Snow. Their family emigrated in1854 and settled throughout the Intermountain West,pioneering in four states and Mexico. They now have tens ofthousands of descendants who honor their sacrifice. Thecourage of the heroine, Marie Madelaine Cardon Guild, waspraised by Bonnie Oscarson in General Conference in October2015. Karen spent three years researching and writing theirfascinating, adventurous and inspirational story. Karen joinedthe Narcissa Camp in Walla Walla, Washington, four years agoand recently moved to Lehi. Both camps are celebrating heraccomplishment.
