PIONEER DAYS
(JULY 23 - 24)
This is the Place to Celebrate! The Mormon pioneers were one of many groups of settlers that traveled West in the 1800’s. July 24th marks their official arrival into the Salt Lake Valley. The day begins with a flag raising ceremony and ends with the bang of our famous Candy Cannon!
Enjoy some of the same activities that brought joy to the weary pioneers following their long journey to the Utah.

- Candy cannon
- Youth parade
- Foot races

Whether your family arrived in a covered wagon or a wide-bodied jet, we all came from somewhere else. Renew those family ties here where history lives on!
