๐จ Trail to Canvas Hike in Mueller Park
The Bountiful Davis Art Center is hosting a family-friendly โPlein Air Hike โ Trail to Canvasโ on May 30 in Mueller Park Canyon. Residents can take an easy hike along Kenny Creek Trail and watch local artists paint Bountifulโs canyon scenery in real time as part of the upcoming Plein Air Exhibition and the cityโs โRed, White, and Move!โ activities. Event runs from 10 AM to noon and is open to the public.
Itโs a fun, free way for South Davis families to enjoy Mueller Park while supporting local artists and community events. ๐ See Post

๐๏ธ Search & Rescue Team Honors โChappyโ
The Davis County Sheriffโs Search and Rescue Team announced the passing of longtime volunteer Jason โChappyโ Chapman after his battle with cancer. Chappy served with the team for more than 20 years, mentoring new members, responding to emergencies, and becoming known for both his preparedness and sense of humor. Team members honored him with a memorial hike to Flag Rock this Memorial Day weekend. Chappyโs decades of service left a lasting impact on emergency response efforts and the Search and Rescue community across Davis County.

๐บ๐ธ Bountifulโs Memorial Day Ceremony Inspires Ukrainian Leader
During Bountifulโs Memorial Day program at Veterans Park, Mayor Kate Bradshaw shared the story of Ukrainian Military Administration Mayor Andrii Seletsky and his February visit to the city. Bradshaw said Seletsky was deeply moved by the communityโs traditions honoring veterans and those lost in service. The visit sparked ideas for creating similar spaces of remembrance in his war-affected hometown of Novovorontsovka, Ukraine.
Bountifulโs local traditions and community values are resonating far beyond Davis County, offering a meaningful example of remembrance and unity during a time of global conflict.

๐ข Davis County Shelter Looking for Home for Rescue Turtle
Animal Care of Davis County is searching for a new home โ or reptile rescue โ for โRingo,โ a red-eared slider turtle currently in the shelterโs care. Staff say the turtle would thrive with an experienced reptile owner who can provide the right pond or habitat setup, complete with proper basking space and care. The shelter shared the post hoping to connect Ringo with someone ready for a unique pet companion.
Local shelters are caring for more than just cats and dogs, and finding specialized homes helps ensure animals like Ringo get the long-term care they need.

Slow Down the Sniff Walk ๐ถ๐ฟ
Not every walk has to be about distance or speed. Sometimes the best thing you can do for your dog is simply slow down and let them sniff.
Sniffing is mental enrichment for dogs. It helps:
โข Reduce stress and anxiety
โข Build confidence
โข Mentally tire dogs out
โข Create a calmer, more fulfilled pup
โจ A 15-minute โsniffariโ can sometimes be more beneficial than a rushed walk around the block.
Try letting your dog lead the pace for part of your next walk (safely, of course ๐). You may be surprised how much happier and more settled they seem afterward.
Stop by Preppy Paws for enrichment ideas, healthy treats, and tools to help your dog thrive inside and out!
