I was one of the students to help with this drill and it was a very rwarding experience. I can sleep mare soundly knowing that our fire fighters and our medical officers of Grantsville are on top of things.

i was also one of the students... i had a "broken ankle" it was really comforting to know that our emergency workers are going to take care of me if i ever really get hurt. it was also interesting because that same night my brother broke his neck (we thought) at football practice. however, seeing how well tooele county handles emergencies, i knew i didnt have to worry.

Black means "deceased" not "diseased." You guys should try actually reporting rather than printing press releases.
