Harold the Canyon Parks Chicken

Today's post is contributed by Dave Vincent, Canyon Parks Supervisor.  Thanks, Dave!

Harold is a Pyle Leghorn rooster that was dropped off at Jolleys Ranch 3 1/2 years ago. When Kim Francom and I found him we were concerned that somebody would shoot him while turkey hunting. So Kim lured him in with dry cat food and I caught him with a fishing net and brought him to the Canyon Parks compound. Soon after Harold's arrival to the compound we noticed him eating Box Elder Bugs through out the yard. Since Harold has lived in the canyon parks compound there has been a significant decline in the Box Elder Bug population.

 



 

Harold likes to get on top of the backhoe and crow at everybody teeing off of number 14 tee box at the golf course and sometimes runs to the corner of the yard to heckle the golfers teeing off of number 18. Many golfers look for Harold when ever they are about to tee off and will talk to him from across the parking lot. Harold also acts as the canyon parks watch dog and will charge after anyone that comes into the compound that does not belong in there.

 

We have always felt Harold was a beautiful bird so I entered him in the 2013 Utah County Fair. While at the fair Harold won ribbons in the following categories; best of show, 1st place, special award and he qualified for the state fair.

 

 

 

 

 



City Employee Golf Tournament

As the cold weather approaches so does our upcoming date for the Employee Golf Tournament. 

October 3^rd. 

 

 

 

Sign in begins at 8:00am.  Sonny will determine when the actual tournament starts.

We currently have 12 teams signed up. 

If you are an individual who has replied saying you would like to play, I will have you on a team before we start.

Next week I’ll be sending out a new updated tournaments rule sheet.  I’m looking for 3-4 employee who will be playing in the tournament to work with me on putting some new rules together.  Please email if you are interested jgleave@springville.org.

This is a fun event.  Hobble Creek Golf Course is BEAUTIFUL this time of year.  - John Gleave 801.491.7810

 

 

 

 

Stop by and visit!

  

An employee asked me the other day if he could just stop by and visit – do you have an ‘open door’ policy?  The answer is yes, yes, yes!  If you have a thought, a concern, an idea or if you just want to say ‘hi,’ please stop in.  Every employee can see whether I am generally available by making a meeting through outlook.  You can also call Hilary, Crystal or Christie to check up on my availability. 

 

 

 

Years ago, when I was involved in a lot of the hiring, I knew almost everyone.  Lately, there are a lot of faces I don’t recognize.  Please make sure you introduce yourself to me.  I would love to get to know you.  If you have an idea for the City, please share it.  Call, email, text or visit.

 

The only way we can make improvements is if we know there is a problem.  The only way I can let the Council know we are doing something right is if someone lets me know.  Letting us know is your obligation.
