Adam Hall

10 years? Are you kidding? It's crazy to believe it has been that long! After graduation, I got married and moved to Utah so my wife, Amber, could finish school. While I worked on my Bachelor's, my wife ran her own massage therapy business in Park City doing massage on a lot of athletes training for the olympics that came to Salt Lake City. I worked at Blockbuster during school as a district trainer for the Salt Lake Valley, but upon completing my degree in Economics, I was recruited by Best Buy to be a manager for the store in American Fork. My wife and I bought our first home in Lehi, UT two years ago and finally adopted our first child in August. We have decided that we really miss the small town and have purchased some land in Rigby. We hope to be up there within the next year.Can't wait to see everyone from the class of '98. Go Trojans!

Reunion News


Remember our senior class president! Kambria has upheld her duty as Senior class president to head the reunion committee. Thank you! Many of our class mates have volunteered and are helping plan the events and find our lost classmates. Thank you! The committee held a meeting and would like to know what day you want the reunion. Please vote on the poll at the bottom of the page. They decided to hold two events for the reunion. During the day, there will be a "bring your own picnic" at (hopefully) the same park we had our Senior Picnic. They are going to try to get a bounce house and bounce obstacle course. It should be a fun and relaxing event for everyone.

That evening, there will be an event at a hotel. The details of the event will come soon! Some ideas include watching the old senior slide show and a new slide show of the pictures people have sent for the blog. We will let you know as the details are worked out.
