LEHI TODAY: SUNSHINE AND CIVIC ENGAGEMENT FOR JUNE KICKOFF
Sunshine welcomed Lehi residents this first day of June as temperatures climbed into the low 80s, kicking off what's predicted to be a pleasant start to the summer season[1]. The clear skies have created perfect conditions for outdoor activities across the city.
In sports news, the Lehi Pioneers baseball team advanced to the state semifinals with a convincing 6-2 victory over their rivals[3]. This impressive win keeps their championship hopes alive as they continue their playoff run.
Today marks an important civic milestone as the Declaration of Candidacy Filing Period opens in Lehi. From June 2-6, residents interested in public service can file to run for two City Council seats and the Mayor's position[2]. Current Mayor Mark Johnson's second term concludes this year, while council positions held by Chris Condie and Paul Hancock are also on the ballot[2].
Candidates must be registered Lehi voters who have resided in the city for at least 12 months. Those interested should visit lehi-ut.gov for information packets or contact the city recorder at

The Central school district also has board seats open for election, with positions covering parts of Lehi, Highland, American Fork, and Alpine[2].
The Lehi City Council has a Work Session scheduled for tomorrow, June 3, at 4:00 p.m. in the Council Chambers at 153 North 100 East[5]. This provides another opportunity for citizens to engage with local government.
The community continues to rally around local youth, with recent attention focused on safety after a 14-year-old girl was hospitalized following an accident outside a dance at the Lehi rodeo grounds[4].
As Lehi residents enjoy this sunny Monday, the combination of civic engagement opportunities, sporting achievements, and beautiful weather creates a vibrant atmosphere throughout the city. Whether you're planning to attend upcoming community events, cheer on local sports teams, or participate in the electoral process, there's no shortage of ways to connect with the Lehi community this June.
