This Pageant is about the pioneers that came form San Pete county to settle Emery County. It is really awesome! I play an Indian the first four nights then I will be a pioneer for the last four. The pageant really opened my eyes about the county. It looks barren and desolate, but it is really a pretty place :)
Any one who reads this, and has time or is able, should come! We have people from all over the state coming to see it. Last night we had a lot of people there, but Fridays and Saturdays always have the most people.
There are signs for the pageant all over. Just before you go into the Spanish Fork Canyon there is a big sign talking about it. When you get into Emery County there are big orange signs all over so if you get lost just look for those :)

I am amazed at this pageant. This may just be me, but i am sorry that i cant meet these pioneers...now. I love the pageant even though i have seen it once. The cast was awesome and the entire thing was awesome. I encourage everyone who sees this page and has the opportunity to see the Castle Valley Pageant to go see it. :)
:) I so agree Morgan :)
I would very much like to meet them too. I think I would like to talk to them about there struggles and blessings :)
I got news, girl. People come from all over the nation, not just the state. It is a nationally famous thing.
oh, and what did you mean by quote "stealing landons and darins grapes"?
Yes I know we had people from France. Any way where did I say that??? I meant it was fun stealing their grapes. The ones we had before we marched
Sounds like fun. Wish I could see it!
The pageant was really fun :) I loved loved loved it!!!! They have decided to do it every other year now so in two years if you are around Utah any you should come down and see it. I remember when you went to my Jr high, and the Pageant is around that area well kind of :)
Oh that's cool that you got to be in the pageant! I went to it, and it was fun. It has a great spirit about it.
When did you go to it? What day?
Now I get the grape thing. I forgot that we had grapes before the parade. Are you really that close to Darin that you would steal his grapes? I wouldn't dare do that unless I was ok with that person. But to each his own.
No he was throwing them at me so I ate them.
Yeah, all the drummers are kind of close... they all know each other and talk to each a lot too. :)
