With record breaking temps along the greater Wasatch Front, we wish you a cooling welcome to August.
If you are feeling a little too much heat, check out the Cool Zone Program. Cool Zones are areas in county and SLC facilities where members of the public can escape the summer heat, hydrate, and learn about available programs throughout the Wasatch Front. Call (385) 468-3200 for more information or for list of Cool Zone locations near you
With August we all start thinking about getting back to school, at any age,
