|
|
Friday, 31 August 2012 |
 Bldg. E-16, Freeport Center
Unless you own a RV dealership (recreational vehicle) you may not have heard of Stag-Parkway. Stag- Parkway is a leader in the distribution of aftermarket RV parts and accessories in North America. Their Clearfield Freeport Center location is one of twelve distribution centers STAG has located throughout the country.
With over 20,000 brand name RV parts and accessories stocked in their twelve warehouses, RV dealers order products from Stag-Parkway and sell them to us, the end consumer. But that’s not all they do. STAG (as they are commonly referred to) prides themselves on serving RV dealers “from the showroom to the backroom.” In addition to distributing aftermarket products such as aluminum platform steps, supplemental braking systems and water aeration devices, STAG provides dealers with profitable business solutions.
STAG offers dealerships complete marketing and merchandising programs designed to help RV dealers build their brand, boost store traffic and, essentially bring their retail store to life. They offer their dealers a leading parts and accessory software program, online ordering, as well as education solutions that help dealers run successful retail operations while improving their bottom line and customer service levels.
Stag-Parkway’s corporate headquarters is in Atlanta, Georgia, and they have been in business since 1968. When the company expanded in 1989 by acquiring Parkway Distributors, a division of Holiday Rambler Corporation, new warehouse locations were added in Oregon, Utah and Iowa. Their Freeport Center location is a 40,000 square foot warehouse, with nine employees.

Citizens Emergency Response Team Training |
|
|
|
Friday, 31 August 2012 |
 Registration Going on Now for October Class
Clearfield City will be holding a CERT training class beginning in October. Those interested in attending the class, which will be held on Tuesdays from 6pm – 9pm, can call Richard Fisher, Clearfield Emergency Services Manager at (801)525-2833 (the exact date/location will be advised at that time).
CERT training is an eight-week certification course. There is no charge for the class; however participants must purchase an emergency responder pack with supplies for $45.
When you complete the CERT certification course you become part of a citizen-based Emergency Response Team. In the event of a city-wide emergency, such as an earthquake or chemical spill, CERT members immediately activate and perform such duties as traffic control, evacuation assistance, search and rescue, damage assessment, administrative support, assist medical personnel with triage procedures, and more.
Topics included in the certification process are: disaster preparedness, fire safety, disaster medical operations, search and rescue, disaster psychology, and terrorism.
The city periodically holds mock emergency disaster exercises in which CERT members, firefighters and police officers get a chance to practice their emergency/disaster response skills, and adjust their emergency response plans based on what is learned during the exercise.
Be sure to register early as classes are limited to thirty students; anyone age 15 and older is welcome to attend.

2012-2013 Clearfield Youth City Council |
|
|
|
Friday, 31 August 2012 |
Amidst the Independence Day hoopla, fourteen youth were sworn in as the 2012- 2013 Clearfield Youth City Council (YCC). In addition to the swearing-in ceremony, the Youth City Council sold ice cold Pepsi products and face painting services to the large crowd of holiday revelers.
“It’s one of our biggest fundraisers of the year for the group,” said Natalee Flynn, the city’s YCC coordinator and Public Relations Specialist. “The youth have a lot of fun getting their float ready for the parade, riding in the parade, and then serving the crowds through their fundraising activities.”
But, being on the YCC isn’t all fun and games. The youth are given the opportunity to learn about municipal government, and being an active member of their community.
“Serving on the YCC trains them to be the leaders of tomorrow,” shared Flynn. “They give the city a good name by choosing to be on the YCC. Hopefully, they will continue to give back to their community, wherever they may end up.”
Now in its sixth year, Clearfield’s YCC is open to youth in grades 9 through 12 or 13-18 years of age. Members must reside in Clearfield, and commit to a minimum of six hours per month while serving on the Council. In addition to fundraising activities, the YCC is involved in: Local Official’s Day/Utah State Capitol, the Youth City Council Leadership Conference at Utah State, conducting City Council meetings (quarterly), and conducting the opening ceremony at City Council meetings
The 2012-2013 YCC will be led by youth mayor, Makenna Hill; this will be her fourth year serving on the YCC. Makenna is a senior at Clearfield High. She is a member of the National Honor Society, will serve as the Senior Publicist for CHS’ student government, competes in cross country, serves on the Red Cross Youth Council, and has been in Weber State’s Pre-College/Scholarship program “Upward Bound” since ninth grade. Makenna’s younger sister, Kyia, is also a member of the YCC.
“I have learned quite a bit from being a part of the YCC,” said Hill. “I have been given many opportunities that I normally wouldn’t have had. I have been able to be in close contact with our City Council and see how hard they work to keep our city running smoothly. I have learned a lot about our government and what our city is all about. I have learned a lot about successes and failures and how important it is to keep going no matter what the circumstances. Being on YCC has helped me to gain more leadership skills and take on bigger responsibilities.”
For this coming year, Hill’s biggest goal for the group is being more organized, which will ultimately help them accomplish more
by way of fundraisers and community service.
“Overall, I want the YCC to be really fun and build memories for all my Council members,” concluded Hill.
