Fifth Grade had the wonderful opportunity to tour the Utah State Capitol. We met the senator for our area. His name is Doug Welton. We learned what the senators were discussing and voting on. We also learned that the marble on the stairs and floor was shipped in from Georgia. However, the marble in the courtroom is from Utah and called Birdseye Marble. They only use that room one day of the year, otherwise court is held at the Matheson Courthouse. You can take your family and tour the Capitol anytime that it is open and we highly recommend it.
