Dr. Dyer's thoughts on life
What comes out when life squeezes you? When someone hurts or offends you? If anger, pain and fear come out of you, it’s because that’s what’s inside. It doesn’t matter who does the squeezing—your mother, your brother, your children, your boss, the government. If someone says something about you that you don’t like, what comes out of you is what’s inside. And what’s inside is up to you, it’s your choice.
September is Constitution Month. It is also the Remembrance of 9-11
What can you remember about the Constitution? How do you feel personally about the Constitution? How do you think it has changed?
Most of the children born in the last 20 years have no recollection of the events of 9-11 or the months afterward when there was more concern for our neighbors. What can we do to help our community?

NATURAL HISTORY MUSEUM, ZIONS BANK BRING FREE COMMUNITY SCIENCE NIGHT TO GARDEN CITY Sept. 7
NATURAL HISTORY
MUSEUM, ZIONS BANK BRING FREE COMMUNITY SCIENCE NIGHT TO GARDEN CITY
The museum’s
‘Soil Stories’ exhibit will be on display at Zions Bank through September
GARDEN CITY, Utah, August 24, 2023 – Garden City is
the latest stop in the Natural History Museum of Utah’s “Soil Stories”
traveling exhibit, featuring the untold stories of the earth beneath us. The
public is invited to a free Community Science Night on Thursday, Sept. 7, from
4:30-7 p.m. at Zions Bank’s Bear Lake Garden City branch, 557 N. Bear Lake
Blvd. The community event will feature interactive stations, hands-on
activities and touchable specimens.
In conjunction with the Community Science Night, a traveling
exhibit, which is free and open to the public, will be on display at the Bear
Lake Garden City branch during regular bank hours through Sept. 30 as part of
its multi-county tour across Utah.
- Soil
samples and soil crusts from across Utah
- Insect
specimens and small vertebrates
- Indigenous
farming tools, artifacts, and pottery
- Paleosol:
where it’s found, and why it matters
“We’re excited for Traveling Treasures to come to Garden City
for the first time since our branch opened in May 2021,” said Steve Allred,
manager of Zions Bank’s Bear Lake Garden City branch. “The museum does a great
job making science and history accessible.”
Visitors will learn that soils vary in color, texture and smell,
and that the organisms that inhabit soil – like cicadas – are just as
interesting. One exhibit shows the Indigenous farming practices that allowed
Utah’s original peoples to thrive in an arid climate, while another highlights
the importance of corn, beans, and squash, and their role in the soil.
“In my work studying insects, I have always been fascinated by
soil,” said NHMU entomology collections manager Christy Bills. “Invertebrates
such as beetles, ants, and snails enrich soil and play a large role in
sustaining all kinds of ecosystems in surprising ways.”
For more than 20 years, the Natural History Museum of Utah and
Zions Bank have partnered to brings natural history collections and research to
Utah’s diverse communities. Each year, a team of educators, exhibit designers,
bankers, and museum volunteers create a new traveling exhibit that explores a
unique aspect of natural history in the state, region and beyond.
