So many good things are happening in our community. Even while we are going through the pandemic, we are seeing some amazing compassion happening for the less advantaged in our community. Covid has had a lot of impacts on families in Provo, and there are many (including city employees) who are making a big difference for those who are struggling. Thanks to all of you for being a force for good in our community.

FUN STUFF
I suspect that many of our employees and their family have been visitors to the Midway Ice Castle. It is quite a remarkable thing to see and experience - even though it is usually very cold! This little video shows how the Ice Castles get built - it is pretty remarkable that this happens, right in our Provo Canyon back yard!
Have a great day- we'll visit again tomorrow!
