🛴 Davis County Sheriff Urges E-Bike & Scooter Safety
The Davis County Sheriff’s Office is reminding e-bike and e-scooter riders to follow traffic laws, wear helmets, stay visible, and ride predictably as serious crashes and unsafe situations increase. Drivers are also being asked to slow down, avoid distractions, and watch carefully for riders, while parents should know what their children are riding and how fast it can go.
With e-bikes and scooters increasingly common across South Davis County, safer habits from riders, drivers, and families can help prevent serious crashes close to home.
🥫 Turn Your Next Group Project Into Pantry Packs
Looking for a hands-on service project? The Bountiful Food Pantry is inviting local families, businesses, neighborhoods, and church groups to host a Pantry Pack Project, assembling weekend food packs for Davis County students. Projects can be scaled for groups large or small, and the pantry provides a guide, assembly instructions, and a calculator to help determine how much food to purchase.
Nearly 4,000 Pantry Packs are distributed each week, so a family service night, workplace project, or church activity can directly help local kids have food over the weekend.
How to Help: Sign up for a Pantry Pack Project through the Bountiful Food Pantry website, donate specific Pantry Pack food items, or make a financial donation designated for the program. Questions? Call the pantry at 801-299-8464; projects happening within 24 hours should be coordinated by phone.

Your Massage Should Fit YOU
Not every body walks into a massage appointment needing the same thing — so your massage shouldn’t be one-size-fits-all either.
Maybe your neck and shoulders have been screaming at you all week. Maybe it’s your lower back or sciatic area. Or maybe you really do need that full-body reset.
At On Point Therapeutic Massage, we start by finding out what’s going on with you and what you need today — then tailor the session accordingly.
And one more thing? You don’t have to make conversation! 😄 Want to chat? Great. Want an hour of glorious silence? Also great.
No cookie-cutter massages. No guessing. Just therapeutic massage focused on what your body actually needs. 👉 Book a Massage
