Sunshine welcomed Lehi residents this first day of June as temperatures climbed into the low 80s, kicking off what’s predicted to be a stretch of warm, dry days ahead. The morning started crisp, with only a light breeze rustling through town, and the air quality held steady in the good range, making it ideal weather for outdoor activities and local events[4].
Over at the Lehi rodeo grounds, the recent high school sports events concluded Friday night, with the Lehi Pioneers baseball team narrowly edging out Riverton 5-4 in a dramatic finish, delighting the home crowd. Across town, the girls soccer squad wrapped up their spring season with a solid 3-1 win over Lone Peak, capping off a strong year for Lehi athletics.
For allergy sufferers, today brought some relief as the pollen count dipped below average for this week. Persistent grass and tree pollen remain present, but recent weather shifts have kept levels from spiking. Many residents have been able to enjoy time outside without the usual sneezing fits.
Sunday traditions continued with the Lehi 20th and 29th Ward Sacrament meetings held at the South Bench Building, drawing families and neighbors together for messages, music, and community connection[1][2]. Downtown, anticipation is building for the upcoming municipal elections, as June 2 marks the start of the filing period for city council and school board candidates. With the Mayor’s seat and two council positions up for grabs, plus new school board seats in the Central district, the next few days will see a flurry of civic activity as hopefuls register their candidacy. Aspiring public servants can visit the city website or contact the city recorder for details on how to throw their hats in the ring[5].
No major incidents were reported in the last 24 hours, although Friday afternoon brought a scare when a 14-year-old girl was hospitalized after being hit by a car outside a dance at the rodeo grounds. She is reported to be recovering, and the community is sending best wishes for a speedy return to health[3].
As June gets underway, Lehi’s calendar is filling fast. From sports victories to civic engagement, and with clear skies above, it’s an exciting time to be part of this Utah community.
