Lehi’s Family Park, which opened in September 2024, remains a popular spot for families. This $20 million all-abilities park features an aviation-themed playground, a 420 sq. ft. splash pad area, and a fully fenced single entrance. Despite initial controversy, the park has been a hit with the community[1].

### Upcoming Projects
Excitement is building around the upcoming Lehi Temple, announced by President Russell M. Nelson of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. The temple will be built on a 22.48-acre site and will include a multi-story structure and a public meetinghouse.
