Utah Pioneer Day and Pie & Beer Day: Celebrating Tradition and Community
Utah, known as The Beehive State, was given its nickname by the Mormon settlers who saw themselves as hardworking and industrious as bees in a hive. Bees spend their whole lives working together for the survival of the community. And hidden under the bustling colony of bees is a treasure of honey. But what do bees have to do with Pioneers and Pie and Beer?

Heading to the lake? Don't forget these water safety tips
SALT LAKE CITY — Summer means fun in the water. But as you're out recreating, remember — accidents can happen in an instant. Drowning is the leading cause of death for kids ages 1-4, and the second leading cause of unintentional injury death in kids up to 14 years of age.
'I can breathe easy': West-side Mexican eatery gets reprieve as development pressure mounts
SALT LAKE CITY — As development pressure spreads to Salt Lake City's west side, score one for a mom-and-pop operation in the neighborhood. Margarito Parra, operator of El Asadero, a west-side Mexican restaurant, had been told by the prior developer of an apartment building taking shape next to his business that he'd have to leave to make way for more apartments. It's been the source of plenty of worry over the last two years as the initial building west of his restaurant, still incomplete, has risen from the ground, reducing traffic at El Asadero.

Eagle Twin & The Otolith Unite for Legends of the Desert Vol. 4 Split Out Sept. 20
Desert Records comes back strong with the next installment of its ongoing Legends of the Desert split series, going high-desert with the mountainous sounds of The Otolith and Eagle Twin, both based in Salt Lake City, Utah. The pairing, well, rules. Eagle Twin‘s last album, The Thundering Heard (Songs of Hoof and Horn) (review here), came out in 2018, while The Otolith‘s debut, Folium Limina (review here), showed up in 2022, through Southern Lord and Blues Funeral, respectively. But neither is an album-a-year-type outfit, so the fact that they’ve joined forces for Legends of the Desert Vol. 4 is pretty special even before you get to the music. Not the kind of thing that would happen every day, is what I’m saying.

Guest Editorial: Bill’s excellent adventure with public transportation in Europe
Editor’s note: Park City Councilor Bill Ciraco is chronicling his exploration of public transportation in Europe in a series of commentaries, beginning with this one. Pioneer Day is expected to make official Salt Lake City’s — and by association Park City’s — role as host city for the 2034 Winter Olympics. This seemed to be an opportune time to travel to Paris and a nearby country that inspired my thoughts on what transportation could do for the Wasatch Back. I would combine a trip to Switzerland with three nights in Paris from July 23-26 to take part in the SLC 2034 Bid Committee festivities there. Disclaimer — none of my trip is being paid for by Park City — this is entirely self funded because I am that focused on transforming what transportation looks like in and around Park City.
Your Week Ahead: July 22 – July 28
