As
the summer days quickly fade, it’s
almost surprising to find that Labor
Day is already upon us. Yet, the
transition into fall is always a
welcome one. The Wasatch Back comes
alive in autumn, not just with the
brilliant colors of the season but
also with the excitement of
cherished events like Swiss Days,
Miners Day, and
Howl-O-Ween.
As
you plan for the months ahead,
remember that dates and details may
shift due to weather or other
factors, so be sure to check the
links we've provided for the latest
updates. Hope to catch you at one of
these wonderful fall
festivities!
