Manti - Today is the dedication of these beautiful gardens – the result of the vision, and leadership talents, persistence and volunteerism of the Manti community and beyond, and some key individuals. I got to be there to record some of the VIP’s that were there. Here they are:
Jane Braithwaite, whose name is synonymous with “Manti” and “Pageant” and “Culture”. She is visiting with The Honorable Greg Bell, Lt. Governor of the State of Utah and his tie. Isn’t his a great tie for a politician? Very patriotic.
Shannon Miller, whose name is synonymous with “Beautiful Manti’s Main Street” and “Preservation” and “Restoration”. She blows wind into the sails of everyone around her, using her resources she has and creating more new ones she needs. And her mysterious photographer – with whom I did NOT get to hob-nob with at all. I shall probably never know any wonderful photo tips from him. But I like his tie too.
I’ll post more later today. Gotta go now to the Snow College AC where the Mormon Tabernacle Choir and Orchestra on Temple Square will present a program in more honor of dedicating the Gardens. Wow.
I didn’t get ALL the VIP’s, but there’s a sampling of ‘em.
