Lehi Beautification Week

April 25-29th 2011

Please take time during this week to make Lehi City more Beautiful. Whether it be at home or in your neighborhood, there are
many ways to improve the beauty of Lehi. Ideas; pick up garbage, pull weeds, clear waterways, plant trees and plants.
If you have a group that needs or wants to provide service during this week, we have a list of things to be done. We are working hard to improve our trails systems.

Please call our offices at (801)768-7100 x 2270, for things you can do.

Arbor Day

Did you know that Lehi City is recognized by the Tree City, USA organization? Trees are an important part of our community because they add beauty, function as windbreaks, and provide food and shelter for birds and animals.

Arbor Day in Lehi is celebrated on the last Saturday of April. Our 2010 celebration will be held at Northlake Park (500 W 2300 S) at 10:00am. There will be a tree planting demonstration and some hands-on experience as a few trees are planted in this great park. We will have a coloring/drawing contest for the younger set and a drawing for a free tree! You can also pick up a free package of Giant Pumpkin seeds to plant in your garden so that you will be ready for the Giant Pumpkin Contest in October

Get your entry forms for the coloring/drawing contest! Our theme this year is “Trees are terrific- and energy wise!”

Trail Day

Although most people have heard about the Jordan River Parkway, Lehi has plenty of other trails to explore. Our Trails Day will be held on Saturday, September 10, 2011, so mark your calendars and tell your friends and neighbors. The location will be announced during the summer. Trails Day features a GPS scavenger hunt, educational sessions, a conservation project and other family-friendly activities.

Giant Pumpkin Contest

After you pick up your Giant Pumpkin seeds at the Arbor Day Celebration or at the Legacy Center during Beautification Week, your family can have a lot of fun planting and nurturing your very own giant pumpkin. In October (time and location TBA) we will set up the scales and see who has grown Lehi’s biggest pumpkin! Learn how to grow giant pumpkins:
