Bountiful to Hold Memorial Day Ceremony at South Davis Veterans Park
Bountiful residents are invited to gather in solemn remembrance this Memorial Day at the South Davis Veterans Memorial Park. The ceremony is scheduled for Monday, May 26 at 11:00 a.m., and will take place at the park located beside City Hall.
This annual community event offers residents a moment to pause and honor the brave men and women who have served and sacrificed in the armed forces. Local officials, including Mayor Kendalyn Harris, are expected to attend as the city pays tribute to its veterans through a thoughtful program of reflection, patriotism, and unity.

Federal Officials Call for Care After Damage to Iconic Salt Flats
A vehicle recently caused damage to the Bonneville Salt Flats after driving on the surface while it was still wet, a move that can leave long-lasting scars and result in costly recovery efforts. When wet, the flats become fragile and easily broken under a vehicle's weight.
The Bureau of Land Management (BLM) reminds visitors to only drive on the flats when the surface is completely dry. Travelers should check for standing water and avoid soft or damp areas, especially near the edges where the salt crust is thinner.
The safest route is via Exit 4 off I-80, continuing on Bonneville Salt Flats Access Road to the designated parking area. Driving beyond that point should only be done if the surface is fully dry and stable.
Officials stress the importance of protecting the flats, a unique natural site visited by people from around the world.


Utah Animal Shelters Sound Alarm on Donation Scams
Utah animal rescue groups like the Community Animal Welfare Society (CAWS) are warning donors about scammers creating fake Venmo accounts that closely mimic official profiles. These fraudulent accounts, sometimes using nearly identical names and logos, aim to intercept donations meant for animal care.
Evergreen Animal Rescue has faced similar issues, prompting both organizations to alert their supporters. They urge donors to verify charity accounts, look for verification badges, and confirm details directly with the organizations before giving.
With fundraising already challenging, these scams are making it harder for nonprofits to provide care for vulnerable animals in need.
