Principal’s message

Sherlock Holmes and Dr. Watson go on a camp-ing trip, set up their tent, and fall asleep. Some hours later, Holmes wakes his faithful friend. “Watson, look up at the sky and tell me what you see.” Watson replies, “I see millions of stars.” What does that tell you?” Watson ponders for a minute. “Astronomically speaking, it tells me that there are millions of galax-ies and potentially billions

of planets. Astrologically, it tells me that Saturn is in Leo. Timewise, it appears to be approximately a quar-ter past three and that the earth is powerful and we are small and insignificant. Meteorologically, it seems we will have a beautiful day tomorrow. What does it tell you?” Holmes is silent for a moment, then speaks. “Watson, you idiot, some-one has stolen our tent.”

The story above illus-

trates an important lesson. Sometimes, in our hurry to look ahead, we can miss the everyday opportunities that are presented to each of us. High school is filled with unique, once-in-a-lifetime opportunities like extra-curricular activities, dances, friends, and academic pursuits that are unequaled. If we get in a hurry to look too far beyond the moment, we can miss these experi-ences and could miss out on

building some of the lasting memories and relationships that are fostered here.

Last week, we, as a school, made our first “FHS Spirit Video.” The video had clubs, groups, sports, and activities that brought their members together to have fun, dress up, get excited, and show their enthusiasm for the camera as it weaved throughout the entire school allowing each group/team to cheer,

dance, and demonstrate how much pride they have in Fremont. It was an amazing experience to see the different interests and talents of each of our students and how proud they are of their activities and the comradery of each group. It was special!

Let us not miss the mo-ment. Enjoy this amazing Fremont experience. It IS a great day to be a Silverwolf.

Blue, maroon, and white road paint can be used for more than just repainting the wolf symbol in Fre-mont’s parking lot. During homecoming week, a large pack of about 40 runners from the cross country team, use it to show their school spirit as they run in to light the bonfire.

“Torch run is one of the highlights of cross coun-try for me because it is a time to hang out and bond with my team that I can practically call family,” said Kaden Winter, one of the team’s captains.

its, but with a torch in hand, and a team atmosphere, anything seems possible.

“Torch run is and was an amazing and unique experi-ence. No other sport does what we do to the extent of what we do. Torch run is a great way that reflects what we do,” stated Joziah Billings, also a captain.

This cross country tradi-tion started years ago, and has been passed down from class to class. Carrying the torch over 18 miles, they work as a team to get it to Fremont. Even after having many difficulties along the way, they pull together as a pack and keep on moving towards the finish.

“I love how we encour-age each other to finish as a team, and we bond well with each other,” said Sarah Deem, who completed the

torch run for the first and last time.

Just before the team enters the stadium, they get painted up. After everyone is covered with the sticky paint, they make their way over to the stadium to light the bonfire.

“I loved how the crowd chased them to the bonfire, it was so amazing,” says Morgan Chase, a junior at Fremont.

The senior captains carry glowing torches into the football field. For some of these leaders, it’s

their first torch run, and for others, their fourth. Even after running as far as they

do, their legs seem to carry them for that last little bit, to light the fire.

Haunted house series; Nightmare on 13th

Calling all Silverwolves! Throughout October, The Paw Print has been traveling around Utah to give you some frightening insight on some of the best haunted houses and attractions this Halloween season. On October 4th, we traveled to Salt Lake City for our first destination in the series, Nightmare on 13th, claimed to be the #1 haunted house in Utah and featured not once, but twice on the trav-el channel.

The fun began with a dance party and some un-likely party guests crashing the scene, which made even standing in line half of the

fun. Next, an excellent pre show that introduced the 3 wicked attractions for 2014 which included Swamp Blood, Delirium, and Haunted Hollywood all of which featured something for everyone.

Whether it was wad-ing through the haunted swamps of the Louisiana, being chased through a maze of clowns, or having an encounter with Jason Vorhees himself, the entire haunted house challenged all 5 senses, which is some-thing new compared to other haunted attractions.

From experiencing the smell of wet dog to struggling through a room that challenges gravity, to misleading screams from all directions. The overall experience was definitely a frighteningly pleasant expe-rience. All staff members were nice and accommo-dating, and the atmosphere was fun and lively.

To get the best out of your experience, I sug-gest traveling in smaller groups,because walking can get pretty crowded at times and your chances of getting spooked are more likely. Also, for the Haunted Hollywood portion of the attraction, make sure you know your classic horror movies. Other than that, I highly suggest Nightmare on 13th as a fun experience to get your heart racing this Halloween season.

Crushing the CougarsOn Friday, September

26th, Fremont’s football team charged onto the field to take on Kearns in their annual Homecoming game. In front of the home crowd, they crushed the Cougars 51-7.

All throughout Home-coming Week, several organizations brought the football team treats and presents. On Thursday night, the student body gathered for the pep rally to show their support and trust in their football team. The next day, they respond-ed.

Last season, Kearns de-feated Fremont by 1 point. This year, Fremont was out for revenge.

“The student body sup-ports us so much, and we didn’t want to disappoint them,” said Paxton Merrill, one of the team’s captains.

In the opening minutes of the game, Justin Shaw connected on an 80-yard touchdown to Haze Hadley. Later in the quarter, Shaw threw a 28-yard pass to Merrill. Fremont’s defense limited Kearns on offense, forcing them to punt several times throughout the quarter. It was a good start, but it was only the beginning.

During the second quarter, Shaw again tossed a pass to Hadley, which put the score at 21-0. The Cou-gars then had possession of the ball, but Fremont’s defense responded by

recording a safety, putting them up by two more points. Just before halftime, Kearns finally put points on the board with a 24-yard touchdown pass.

Coming out of halftime, Fremont did not turn down the heat.

“We kept the momen-tum throughout the whole game and didn’t back down at all,” said Kohl Chris-tensen, a senior, who helped contribute to making his final Homecoming game one of Fremont’s biggest blowouts in years.

In the third quarter, Fremont continued to dominate, guided by their defense. After a 3-yard touchdown run by Cole

Bingham, Kearns had pos-session of the ball. With a bad snap, Kearns’s quarter-back dropped the ball and Ryan Grange recovered it in the end zone for another score. Soon after, Kearns lost 2 more fumbles, includ-ing one on their 1-yard line, and kicked a punt sideways, that ended up going out of bounds just a few yards in front of the line of scrim-mage.

Fremont’s offense took advantage of the big plays on defense to put even more points on the board. Justin Shaw threw his fourth touchdown to Bing-ham, and Braxton Porter ran in a 1-yard touchdown to complete the blowout,

51-7.“Our coach told us

our part of Homecoming was to win the game,” said Porter. And they certainly did just that.

It was the biggest blow-out Fremont has had since they beat Weber 50-0 in 2011, and the most points they have had in a game since scoring 58 against Roy on October 22nd, 1999.

Looking ahead, Fre-mont’s football team is very optimistic.

“We’re pretty confident,” Hadley said. “We believe we are the best in region.”

They are looking for-ward to proving it in the next few games.

Fremont cruised past Kearns, 51-7, to make the Homecoming game one that will be long remem-bered.

We can go the distance

Heart pumping, lungs burning, calves on fire, and a mile left to go. But there’s no giving up for this race- Fremont’s cross country is in it for the win. The team is having an amazing season this year, placing in almost all of their races as a team. With region now here, their many hill workouts could mean the difference between making state.

How does a cross country team earn points or win a meet? Each runner in the the 5k race counts as one point. The objective is to have the least amount of points as a team. As one runner passes another, they take off more and more points for their team.

The girls team is making their scores smaller and smaller each time, even improving personal times. They have set countless state records years ago, but haven’t won them recently. As a team, they are put-ting themselves in line for

another state championship, and living the legacy once again.

”We are doing so well

because we are closer as a team,” stated Miranda Pe-terson, a varsity runner on the team. “We are all one big family.”

While watching the girls and boys run, you will notice them “pack it up,” meaning that all of them are running at the same pace, never leaving each other behind.

“I think we have gotten better because we are start-ing to close gaps between each other, and working to-gether,” said Joziah Billings, one of the boys captains.

“Hard work and ded-ication, that’s all I have to say,” stated Ethan Shaefer, another runner on the team.

The cross country team works extremely hard each day to chase down goals they never thought were imaginable. If you know a runner from this amazing team, give them a pat on the back.

David Premont’s team has, it wasn’t a hard decision for Salt Lake Bees Founda-tion to pick Fremont High School as the winners of a new field makeover.

Salt Lake Bees Foun-dation, which is on the

board of Intermountain Sports Turf Managers Association gives away a new field to a deserving high school every year. The foundation goes through thousands of essays and applications sent in by high school base-ball teams.

“It’s select-ed based upon

determination,” Messerly explained. “It is a gift from them.” Intermountain Sports Turf Managers Association is the team building Fremont’s new baseball field. Messerly said that each new field costs around $35,000- $40,000.

It was when everyone started noticing horri-ble edging, bumps in the ground and students getting hurt that Scott George, a father of one of the players, decided to give Salt Lake Bees Foundation a try. On August 12, 2014, only 7 days before dead-line, George reached out to “Coach Mess” and Mark Bingham, another team dad, about filling out an application and submitting an essay. Bingham had more knowledge and history of the field, so he took on responsibility of writing the

essay. Sophomore Haze Had-

ley broke his nose on the 20 year old field, and they sent a picture of his damaged nose in with the essay.

“Hey, we have a real bad lip. Our players are getting hurt, and we need a hand!” George said. Bingham wrote the essay with help of coaches and team players.

The team consistently asked Coach Messerly if he knew what the results were. When they found out Fremont made it into finals with help of Hadley’s broken nose, there was no stopping their excitement. They knew they deserved it.

When Salt Lake Bees Foundation announced that Fremont’s baseball team were the winners, “They were ecstatic!” Coach Messerly explained. “The field was in need of a lot of

work.” “It is

going to be a perfect field!” George said.

On one of the first days of renovation, twenty six players from the team last year, this year, and potential players were out helping.

“The kids have been excited and willing to help,” Coach Messerly said. “They kept wanting to know what they needed to do, and what to do next.”

“Im happy that we won’t get broke noses like Haze!” said Braxton Bullock, a player on the baseball team. Cameron Tune, who is in charge of laser grading, came out to Fremont’s baseball field, took a look around and decided it was best to start from scratch. First thing the Association started on was home plate.

“It’s going to be awe-some, the kids are going to love it,” George said

Since it is off-season, there are no games sched-uled while the makeover is progressing, but the Silver Wolves still practice once a week to get ready for the upcoming baseball season. The team practices at Wasatch Academy, at an indoor facility.

With the work of the players, Sports Turf Association members, and excitement within each of the coaches and students, the field is estimated to be finished by the third week of November, just in time for the season.

Fremont was in des-perate need of a new field, and coach Jeff Messerly’s baseball team knew just what to do to get one. With the love for the sport Coach Jeff Messerly, and Coach

Student Life The Paw Print

Fremont students had a surprise waiting for them on the first day of school. Flags from colleges, presti-gious and local, adorned the hallways. Above doorways, banners heralded different schools- Princeton, Weber State, BYU, Yale, and many others.

The flags have been a topic of interest among stu-dents the first few weeks of school. “I guess I thought they were cool,”said Mad-ison McRae, a junior at Fremont.

However, these banners are not here for decoration.

“We are trying to inspire college and career readi-ness,” stated Sherri Patton, an assistant principal at Fre-mont. “Sometimes students don’t know their potential.

They think they aren’t cut out for college.”

The administration aims to rid students of this notion. Their response: hang flags in the hallways, making students aware of their options.

“We chose a variety of colleges: some of the most popular, as well as the ones that are close to us,” Patton continued. “We want to show that we value educa-tion and encourage students to take A.P. and Concurrent Enrollment courses.”

Of course, with the banners came pranks. “Those janitors are going down,” commented Aimee Sauvageau.“I came to work and there was an ugly flag on the door.”

This was a BYU flag. The culprit was found and quickly fixed the problem,

taking down the flag and replacing it with the Utah State banner.

“They put this lovely flag on the door,” Sauvageau said, gesturing to the Aggies flag. “The other one might have been stomped and kicked a few times, though.”

The University of Utah flag also mysteriously disap-peared. Sports team rivalries inspire many of the pranks.

However, it’s important to remember the flags’ true purpose: motivating students to think about college.

“We value education,” Patton said. “Every student at this school has the poten-tial to go to college.”

Fremont’s school song is something the students couldn’t be more proud of. “The song was sang so elegantly [by the seniors],” said Bailey Taylor.

At the last assembly, there was an announcement made before the seniors sang. An SBO, speaking for an alumni, asked the student body not echo the school song as they were singing it. Why is the echo bad?

“To me, it makes fun of something we hold close and dear,” said Mr. Anderson. He is the the choir teacher and one of the alumni teachers of Fremont. He believes that singing the school song in that way is disrespectful, and that it has become a song like Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer.

Student body president,

Taylor Williams, has a different look on the echo. He doesn't believe anyone is trying to be disrespect-ful, but that the students are just trying to express themselves. However, he also said that we do want to respect the alumnis wishes though.

The school song was picked out of a contest where the winner received $100. David Len Allen, a community member, wrote the original version, then later changed the song

almost completely. The version that is known and loved is longer than the original. He wrote in his submission paper, “This version is in... Choir/hymn style, as in a hymn book.”

The song has been something to cherish throughout the years of Fremont, not only to the students, but the factually as well. So whether the students are singing the song or echoing it, they do it with respect.

Echoing in the hallsBy: Sam Smith

Homecoming Week was filled with many exciting activities, from the pep rally and parade to the home-coming dance. However, there was one activity that most Fremont students did not want to take part in: parent-teacher conferences.

“It gives us a half day, so I like it,” stated Brandon Conroy, a Senior at Fre-mont. “But we have to talk to our teachers, so I hate it.”

It’s the one day of the quarter where Silver Wolves are dragged in front of their teachers to discuss their grades-questionable or excellent. The conferences are to be avoided like that creepy ex you pretend not to have.

Some students may have even shredded the reminder that comes with midterms, thinking they wouldn’t have to go this year. Of course, their plans were ruined when they realized that all their parents are emailed reminders as well.

Students aren’t the only ones who are exhausted af-ter conferences. The teach-ers have to spend six hours talking to the students and their parents.

“I tell my husband, ‘when I get home, there had better be dinner!’” commented Tracy Stokes, a

history teacher at Fremont. “I’m going to eat dinner and watch Survivor.”

While most teachers will say that they are glad to meet their students’ parents, the night drains their energy as well.

“It’s the day after con-ferences,” said Stokes. “The teachers always say, ‘I’m tired. Didn’t I just leave this place?’”

Usually, the attendance varies by teacher, leading to the question: Is it a great thing to have many students drop by?

“This is good,” stated Stokes, pointing to her paper with the names of attendees. “This is a great turnout.”

“I love to meet students’ parents,” commented Brian Fendrick, a Fremont English teacher, on par-

ent-teacher conferences.Many Silver Wolves don’t

understand what teachers go through on this night. Students visit with their teachers for about an hour. Teachers have to stay for most of the afternoon.

“Yeah, it’s been this bad all afternoon,” stated Qualls, the orchestra and band teacher at Fremont, gesturing to the flies buzzing around his booth. “That’s probably why they put me here.”

Even though some teachers and students don’t consider parent-teacher conferences an exciting night, it is important.

They’re everywhere. At the doors when you walk into school. In the stands during assemblies. Cheering on the team during games. Trumpets blaring, drums beating out the rhythm. They are Fremont’s march-ing band.

They are present at every home game, playoff game, and assembly. They play in the commons once a week as part of their “disturbing the peace” tradition. Other marching band traditions include spirit-building activities, like chanting a Fremont victory song at the end of class, and seniors passing down a rubber

chicken on a pole, the marching band’s “mascot.”

“We circle around the drum major and yell in her ear,” explained Jaren Som-sen, a senior in marching band.

However, the march-ing band isn’t only about entertaining the crowds of Fremont sports fans.

“We play at many march-ing band competitions in the fall,” said Randall Qualls, the conductor of Fremont’s marching band.

There are many classes that students take, figuring they are easy A’s.Marching band is not one of these.

“We come here at 6:30 every morning and play so we can get it right,” said Erin Haycock, a member of

the band. “It takes lots of hard work.”

What are some of the most important qualities of members of the marching band?

“Commitment and hard work are the top two,” commented Trent Thayne, a marching band member for three years.

No matter where they play, Fremont’s marching band continues to display their determination and school spirit.

“I like being able to perform in front of people and show them what I can do,” said Somsen.

Fremont’s marching band placed fourth in a statewide competition last year.

Girls at Fremont always look forward to dressing up on homecoming night. So what if you were kicked out of the dance because your dress was too short and then you were not refunded your money? This is what happened to a few girls at

Bingham High at their homecoming.

The administration had held an assembly stating the dress code, so was it fair? Chad Pehrson, parent of Taylor Gillespie

who was kicked out, told The Standard Examiner that the school wouldn’t take the photo and didn’t test her to prove her dress met school policy. Maddi Massingale, senior Home-coming queen, said, “I don’t think it was fair that they got sent home, especially the seniors.”

Taylor Gillespie was un-able to be reached. She told Fox 13 news, “They said I

either have to go home and get something to go under, or I’m not allowed in...So I just decided to leave.” While some students were turned away, others were allowed in that had on similar dresses. Girls were sent home in tears. The dress code at Bingham had to be to the knees sitting down and sleeves. Massingale said, “I thought it was reasonable here.” Fremont’s was straps and it had to be midthigh.

“We had shawls there for people who needed them,” said Tori Pollard, a teacher who helped chaperone the dance. She said that there were about three out of 800 people who had to wear them. “We really didn’t have any other problems.”

Fremont Theater produces it’s own budget

Buy a ticket, go to opening night, get in a seat, and wait for the curtains to open. The stage design is impeccable, and the cos-tumes are unreal. Fremont High School puts on at least four productions every year. The funding does come out of the school’s pocket, right?

“Most of our money comes from what is gener-ated,” Mrs.Obray, Fremont Theater arts teacher ex-plained. “Ticket sales, fund-raisers, and grants are what I use to bring more money in to fund our expenses.”

Fundraisers, yard sales, grants, and donations are all the funding options Obray uses to supplement their budget. The money goes toward wood, tools, a new sound and light board, and other important aspects needed to put on the show.

Fremont High School put on four productions, in addition to competition last year. Those productions made $15,000 in ticket sales. That money will be used to fund this year’s upcoming productions.

Obray recently received a donation of $1,500 from Darryl and Larsen Sheets, Ashley Sheets’ parents. Ashley Sheets is a senior from Fremont High who has been an actress in three musicals, and is also playing the part of Janet in this years “Drowsy Chaperone.”

The theater program puts months worth of effort into assembling the plays, musicals, competition shows, and one act plays Fremont’s theater program performs every year for the entertainment of the student body.

Obray spends hours of after-school time in the auditorium, and at home working on theater-related activities. “Ten hours a day is a short day for me,” she said.

The physical and emo-tional aspect of produc-tion is crucial. Months in advance, the Theater Tech

Warped Tour - the experience

Warped Tour is one of the biggest traveling music festivals in the country, next to Tomorrow World and Summer Jam.

Some bands enjoy cer-tain states more than other because of the weather each of them provide. Utah is one of the hotter states, but the heat could never drive bands or their fans away!

“I like it here[ in Utah ]and it’s beautiful too!” said

Jeff Berman, solo artist of Divided Heaven. “When you’re in something that’s not aesthetically pleasing to look at, verses when like you have mountains behind you, it’s just really cool.”

The craziest detail about Warped Tour is that not every band is from this country. Bands come from all over the world to play in the United States for what may seem to them like a summer band camp.

The band Captain Capa is an ocean away from home. Germany is where they have always lived and where most of their fan base comes from. When asked what the difference between German fans and American fans were, Hannes Naumann respond-ed, “Well, the difference is we have German fans!”

Other bands such as Courage My Love are not as far away from home as

others. They’re from Cana-da. Singer and guitarist Mer-cedes Arn-Horn explained, “Touring is a lot easier in America I think because, America’s a lot bigger, but you guys have your cities and your states are a lot closer together than in Can-ada. Our cities and prov-inces are so far apart, so here on this tour it’s like an 8-hour drive is a long drive, but in Canada an 8-hour drive is like, ‘Oh alright’ you kind of just expect it.’”

Festivals are the best environment for crazy mishaps to occur- from extreme fans doing extreme tasks, to weather hot enough to cook breakfast on the pavement.

Not only do fans witness the strange occurrences all around them, but the musicians seem to be most keen to picking up on these not-so-rare motions.

“I saw a dog drinking

a cappuccino,” exclaimed Hannes Naumann, lead singer in the techno Ger-man rock band, Captain Capa.

Fellow band member and guitarist Maik Bier-mann argued, “The craziest would probably involve Speedo Spencer, who’s the merchandise guy for Criz-zly- he’s on our bus. Most of the craziest things I’ve seen lean towards or are surrounding this person.”

Dogs drinking cappuc-cinos and men running around in speedos is not the most unusual sight to see at Vans Warped Tour.

Most people, when attending Warped Tour, go for the casual band T-shirt, shorts or jeans. But this style just doesn’t appeal to everyone’s taste, especially the fans that would gladly turn to a puddle of mush just to make sure their fa-vorite band notices them in

On Friday, October 3rd, Fremont released a video showcasing the clubs and sports teams. The video had been shot the previous Fri-day in two takes- a practice run and the real video.

“A lot of time and ener-gy went into it,” stated Fred Smith, the film production teacher at Fremont. “And a lot of mapping.”

The spirit video was supposed to be released on September 29, but wasn’t edited in time.

“It got crazy at some points,” commented Smith.

Some Fremont students

complained that the clubs weren’t notified clearly about plans for the spirit video.

“We need to be more informing with the clubs,” Smith agreed. “The biggest kink was that we did a lot of rehearsals, but not many with the clubs.”

During the viewing in the commons, students formed different opinions about the video.

Some commonly-dis-cussed parts of the video included a blocked out section and the poor audio, which combined with the lunchtime noise to make it

difficult to hear the lip-syn-ched songs.

“I love how they had to block out a few people,” commented sophomore Britney Peterson. Two students had kissed in the video, and the section was blocked out due to Fre-mont’s PDA policy.

Even though the spirit video wasn’t adored by everyone, the students and staff involved with the video are satisfied with the results.

“I loved helping the groups to come together,” stated junior class presi-dent Nicole Bowden, who helped organize the video.

their T-shirts and all black attire. Others are the exact opposite. They come in with, let’s say, “not clothes your grandma would like you to wear in public”.

From coast to coast, fans gladly wait for their day at Warped Tour. Rain or shine, the show will go on. The crazy temperatures have proven to be dan-gerous if someone comes unprepared. In the summer, most shows are anywhere from 98 degrees to 115 in the hotter parts of the country. The leading cause of emergencies that occur at Warped Tour are heat stroke and dehydration. All of this information is found on the entry card given at Warped Tour.

Signs can be found all over the park remind-ing concert goers to stay hydrated and drink as much water as possible!

class build and assemble the set design and props. Mean-while, the actors and ac-tresses rehearse the scenes every day after school, and then to head home and spend hours memorizing their lines before the big show.

“I personally think Theater Tech should count for a P.E. credit,” Hayden Hayes, a Theater Tech student said. “Lifting 200 pounds of wood, working with saws and staple guns, while also lifting heavy set designs on and off of the stage totally breaks a sweat, sometimes even more than my gym class does.”

The dedication, and the heart behind theater is remarkable. “I’ve enjoyed theater since I was really little,” said Blakely Rhees, a party guest in the upcom-ing musical, “The Drowsy Chaperone.” “There’s dedication, heart and crazy emotion that is put into theater. The nerves I get right before I audition for my part, the joy I feel when I see the part I got, and the rush right before the show begins is what keeps me drawn in. I’m a theater geek, and I’m perfectly okay with that.”

Knowing where the budget comes from, how

much effort is put into raising more money for the productions, and the hard work and persistence the theater students put into their hobby, makes the plays and musicals that much more exciting to watch. The image of tech students building extrava-gant staircases, and the lead actor/actress practicing in the mirror at home to make sure they have their lines and body actions on point, helps remind the students how great Fremont’s The-ater program really is.

“I just want our students to be aware that this is completely non-profit and solely run by the money generated,” Obray said. “For example, athletics. Athletes and their families pay for themselves and they help earn money for their team, where we don’t do that. I accept donations, but grants, fundraisers, and last year’s money is our main income.”

After months of prepa-ration, six days is all the performers get to entertain the crowd.

When the musical, Drowsy Chaperone, premieres this November, every ticket purchased will help the theater department on their next successful production.

Students are thinking about their actions and the consequences of those ac-tions, like what college they will attend, how their grades look. One of the actions that doesn’t make the list is littering out in the student parking lot.

“I hate [the trash],” Tempest Hiatt, a student at Fremont said. “It sucks walking out there when it’s full of people’s garbage. We should have garbage cans outside somewhere close to the parking lot. Maybe kids would start putting their trash in garbages instead of on the ground.”

Students struggle when they see a car looking funny after being parked. People hate it when others park wrong and it makes it harder for them to park correctly.

There are students who don’t pull all the way through the stall, which forces the other driver coming to either park in a different parking stall or park with their vehicle sticking out.

Students and other drivers need to take just a couple more seconds of their time to park correctly. It will not hurt you, even if you need to roll down your window to make sure you fit in perfectly in the stall. Students can improve the parking lot by just learning how to park correctly.

“If you’re a good parker, that’s all you need to learn,” Alan Chavez, a Fremont ju-nior says. Please learn how to park to make it easier for others.

The struggle is real: Advice for the packBy: KayDee Nelson

So here is the thing. I like 3 guys. And 3 of them like me. They are nothing like each other. One of them asked me out, and met my parents. And I’m going to homecoming with him. But I really like the other 2 as well. My best friend likes a guy that’s really close friends with one of the guys I like, so double dates would be such a blast! But the one that met my parents is soooo sweet. But then I feel like I have more fun with the other two. Idk what to do.Ugggh. -Holla@me

Sounds like you’re in quite a predicament here. But no fear- I think I can help you. It’s important in this situation to remember that you’re still in high school and don’t have to be fully committed to one person for now. It’s okay to go on dates with multiple people and see who you’re most comfortable with.

So try this: really get to know each one, maybe go on multiple dates with each boy, because the more you get to know someone, the more clear it will become who you would rather spend time or have the most in common with. That’s the fun thing about being interested in 3 completely different guys- each experience will be nothing like the last, so find qualities that you like in each guy.

Soon it’ll become clear which one you like the most and then you can decide how to move on with the relationship. But in the meantime, just have fun with it, and don’t tie yourself down to one person until you know for sure that you are confident in your deci-sion.

Fremont High School is filled with people with a variety of interests and talents. However, for some time, students were required to find some way out of school to participate in many of the activities they enjoyed.

Now that has changed, and it is certainly for the better. Fremont now allows individuals to form any club they wish- as long as they have an advisor and are capable of getting the funding. Already, many new clubs have been started.

The change has allowed many students to participate in ways they were previ-ously not able to. It has increased the excitement around the school and allowed students to try new things or further engage in their pursuits. It has also al-lowed them to meet others with similar interests.

spewing with melted ice-cream. The ice-cream was melting on the hot pave-ment , and flowing under student’s cars, making mess-es in every direction.

The Maverick and McDonald’s messes are the most common reap-pearances. There are straw wrappers, random pieces of paper, cups, and Maverick food trays outside.

“Fremont needs garbage cans because I don’t want food in my car because it smells,” Georgia Giordano, another student at Fremont said. “I would like to throw it away somewhere.”

Fremont High School is all about school spirit, and

if Fremont did get garbage cans, they could be painted to show representation of the school spirit.

“I’m tired of getting into my friend’s garbage can,” Mr. Bakker, a student teacher at Fremont said. “When they give me a ride they just toss their trash over their shoulder, and I hate pushing aside the trash just to sit in their car.”

The next day student’s come back to school and the process happens all over again. They do not realize the clean state the parking lot is in. When lunch comes, they leave and the street is trashed as they return.

The trash in the school’s parking lot is a controllable situation.

“It takes way too long and it really shouldn’t be as bad as it is, but that’s just

Some of these organi-zations are largely student run, which has given oppor-tunities for more student leadership. Many students are able to serve as officers in their respective clubs, allowing them to gain valu-able skills and experience.

The “open club” policy clearly has benefits for the school. Many of these are being seen right now. The Pack Club, Fremont’s new service club, helped renovate the flower beds around Fremont, and is

planning other service-ori-ented activities that will help improve the look and feel of the school as well as get service hours needed for college scholarships and applications.

The gaming group brings students together who share an interest in gaming. The ski and snow-board club allows those who join to go for outings in the mountains and get discounts to ski resorts. The clubs bring together those who share a common inter-est of passion, making the school stronger and more

united.Furthermore, individuals

involved in these clubs are now more fully recognized for their accomplishments and activities that were previously not linked with the school.

the way things go,” said Brandan Kapp, one of Fre-mont’s part-time janitors. “I go through one garbage bag a day, but mainly the park-ing lot takes up most of my time. Everything else I can get done pretty quick, but the parking lot and every-thing in it is what takes the longest.”

The administration has strong opinions about the trashy parking lot too. Mr. Shaw, an assistant principal, said that he feels bad be-cause he cares for Fremont and his students, but the trash outside is becoming a problem.

“Realizing that for some reason, and I don’t always think it’s by accident, that trash ends up on the ground,” Shaw explained. “It’s pretty common to see a whole sack full of

garbage, and piles of gar-bage where someone has emptied their car or truck out and just put it on the ground. It does not help Fremont be a better place

when students do that. Anything that holds garbage and keeps it in a place until it can be disposed of prop-erly would be a good thing.”

who park wrong because they are late to school. Stu-dents should be able to help each other out and park correctly.

At the beginning of the school year, Kaden Winter, a senior at Fremont, had his car hit by another Fremont student that was rushing in the parking lot. “A girl came in and T-Boned the side of my car,” said Winter.

Students who are careful when driving into the park-ing lot prevent accidents.

Utah’s faultline continues activitySome natural disasters

happen more than others but all of them can be absolutely devastating to a community. Lately, earth-quakes have been shaking up people all over the world and leaving some cities left in nothing but ashes and rubble. The last earthquake that is instilling fear into the minds of people all over America is the 6.0 magnitude earthquake that hit northern California on Sunday morning, August 24 at roughly 3:30 A.M.

“It terrifies me that earthquakes are happening everywhere, all the time”, stated Emma Pehrson.

This earth shaking event left people trembling in fear of when the next ‘big one’ will be, and if this could possibly trigger earthquakes in Nevada and eventually

here in Utah. Utah ranges anywhere from one to two earthquakes a week mostly at a magnitude of 1.0 and 2.0. These size of earth-quakes usually can’t be felt by us because they can be from 9 to 12 miles under-ground.

“Really? I would have never guesses we had that many earthquakes a week, I thought we never got them”, exclaimed Sierra Hansen.

The National earthquake association, Utah receives a large earthquake every 400 years or so. However, our chance of having an earth breaking event happen in the next 50 years is a 1 in 4 possibility. Scientist have been studying the Wasatch fault line closely over the last 20 years because it is referred to as an active fault line, which means it’s highly likely to experience

an earthquake in the near future.

Utah has had 5.5 to 6.5 magnitude earthquakes about every 7 years, since 1880 we have had 15 earthquakes in the 5.5 range magnitude. Our largest earthquake on record in Utah was in the year 1934 in Hansel Valley. It was a heart pumping, adrenaline filled, feet trembling 6.6 with aftershocks of 5.5.

Our ‘big one’ could be in 400 years, it could be in 50 years, or it could be tomor-row, but when it happens we are expected to have a magnitude of 7.5 or higher. If this size does start to rumble under our feet, the damage that occurs over the the Wasatch Valley has been an estimated $4.5 billion. Most of the damage will occur in buildings in Salt Lake City and in the valley homes. Extreme rock slides,

landslides, and mudslides would be almost a guaran-tee. The national earthquake association shows that Utah would have segments of mountains that could break apart from 20 to 40 miles and displacement on the surface - meaning roads, valleys etc- could move or rise 10 to 20 feet.

Now, this all seems a bit terrifying but being prepared for an earthquake, or any natural disaster for that matter, can make a huge difference. Everybody should have a 72 hour kit that should include a flash-light with extra batteries, a change of clothes, first aid kit, a heating source, food and water, and anything else your family feels it needs should be included. The earth is holding still for right now, but lets see what tomorrow has in store for us.

Bending that upsets people

Fremont students are always looking for the latest technology. Apple products have been a big part of our everyday lives, and now the iPhone 6 is out.

“I do not plan on getting one because they are complete garbage,” said Kaidon Spencer, a senior at Fremont.

What if a teenage boy walks into an Apple store and wants to see if it will bend. With his friend filming it, they bend and break the phone. This kind of thing is happening all over the U.S. with the new Iphone 6 as well as the 6 plus. It is not just in Apple stores but multiple different

stores. 9to5Mac, an Apple

intelligence company, wrote, “How often do you purchase the next genera-tion and it doesn’t hold up as good as the first?”

Johnathan Morison, who gives reviews on apple products, decided it was time to put the iPhone to the extreme with the case on. He had some friends sit with it in their front and back pockets, and no dam-age was done. Then with all of his strength, he attempt-ed to bend the iPhone. The case saved the iPhone with only a slight bend that wasn’t noticeable.

Morison said, “If the iP-hone 6 bends, don’t assume it’s the worst product on the planet.” He also warns

everyone that you shouldn’t always believe what read on the internet.

Apple reported to CNET that, “only nine

customers contacted Apple. ..with a bent iPhone 6 Plus.”

danced, yelled, and cheered as loud as they could.

“It was so much fun, everyone was stoked!” said junior class president Nicole Bowden. The fans were involved in every play. You could hear the “Yeah!” the “Ohhhh!” It showed the school’s spirit.

As the game was a com-ing to an end, the students started to count the sec-

onds. When the scoreboard read 0:00, all the students rushed onto the field.

They were on the field for about 30 seconds. Most of the fans were hugging each other, giving the foot-ball players a hug or a pat on the shoulder and many others were just cheering.

Right away, the football coaches started to tell all the students to move off the field.

Kory Bosgieter, the head football coach stated, “It’s a scary situation for the opposing team and even though our kids are awe-some and meant no harm, it’s a scary situation.”

It’s a region rule that students don’t rush onto the field.

Students were really pumped and showed their spirit until the end.
