Western Sports Park Opens with Festive Ribbon Cutting and Community Celebration
Western Sports Park officially opened its gates to the public with a lively ribbon-cutting ceremony that drew families, local students, and sports enthusiasts alike. The celebration kicked off on the evening of September 17, marking the beginning of what promises to be a vibrant new hub for recreation and community events.
Attendees were treated to a festive atmosphere filled with music, food, and activities. The Farmington High School Band set the tone with a spirited performance during the ribbon cutting, energizing the crowd. Throughout the event, visitors enjoyed face painting, local food vendors, and interactive entertainment.
Adding to the excitement, collegiate athletes were on site to engage with attendees, and the event featured a high-energy dunk show by performers from Brigham Young University. Special guest Ronnie Price, a former professional basketball player, made an appearance and connected with fans young and old.
The park, designed to serve a wide range of sports and community needs, is now officially open for public use. Wednesday evening's festivities served not only to commemorate the opening but also to highlight the park's role as a gathering place for the community moving forward.

Utah Unveils Site for $75M Homeless Campus in Salt Lake City
Utah has announced plans for a 1,300-bed homeless services campus at a 15.85-acre site in Salt Lake City's Northpointe area. The state-run facility will provide shelter and a broad range of support services in a single, centralized location. With a projected $75 million infrastructure cost and annual operations exceeding $30 million, state leaders will seek legislative and partner funding to complete the project. Officials plan to hold public meetings in the coming months to gather community input, and residents can sign up for updates at homelesscampus.utah.gov. The first phase is expected to open in 2027.

Hope Takes Center Stage: Theater Fundraiser Supports Local Nurse Battling Cancer
For over 20 years, Rachel has dedicated her life to caring for others as a nurse. Today, the community has an opportunity to give back as she faces a personal battle with breast cancer.
Support for Rachel is growing through a special production of The Scarlet Pimpernel, where proceeds will help cover medical expenses and bring encouragement during her journey to healing. Community members can contribute in two meaningful ways: by purchasing tickets to the show and by donating directly to Rachel via Venmo at @givehopebox.
The production not only highlights local talent but also serves as a powerful reminder of what can be achieved when a community comes together in compassion and solidarity.
Secure your seat and make a difference today: Purchase Tickets Here
Together, we can offer Rachel the same hope and strength she has shared with so many throughout her career.

🏈 Davis' Bode Sparrow Named High School Football Player of the Week

Massage Minute with Chelsea 💆♀️✨

Don’t Let Your Sleep Hurt You 💤 🛏️
Waking up sore or stiff? It could be your sleep position. Small tweaks—like a pillow under your knees or between your legs—can keep your spine neutral and muscles relaxed through the night. Combine that with regular massage and you’ll feel the change from the inside out.
🌙 Need help recovering from restless nights? Book your massage today!

🧸 Be the Light with Lily’s Birthday Stuffed Animal Drive
Last year, Lily celebrated her birthday by organizing a stuffed animal drive for Intermountain Health’s Cancer Center—collecting 140 stuffed animals to comfort kids whose parents are battling cancer. 💛
This year, she’s back with an even bigger goal: 200 stuffed animals by September 30th! Each donation, whether new or gently loved (small to medium-sized), helps bring hope and comfort to kids and teens during an unimaginably hard time.
There are lots of ways to get involved:
Drop donations off at Lily’s house
Order online and ship directly to her
Meet up for a hand-off
Or contribute funds so she can purchase animals on your behalf
As Lily shared, “Learn to light a candle in the darkest moments of someone’s life. Be the light that helps others see.” 🌟
👉 You can read Lily’s full post and DM her directly if you’d like to contribute: [Facebook Post Link]
