Good morning, Ogden.
🏘️ Community
Ogden officials announced that Lester Park will receive a $2.4M makeover this fall to add pickleball courts, an updated playground, a sports field and an ice rink—plans that aim to give local families and seniors better access to nearby recreation.
Community members hope the revitalization will also boost nearby businesses and create a more welcoming neighborhood space.
🌲 Environment
After a dry summer, a heavy monsoonal storm dropped over two inches on parts of Weber County on Wednesday, Aug.
28th — causing minor flooding and basement water in Ogden. City crews and county emergency management quickly cleaned storm grates and closed a busy intersection on Rulon White Boulevard before reopening it Thursday.
🏈 Sports
Local fans will gather at Lindquist Field on Sept.
6 as the Ogden Raptors host the Boise Hawks with a pregame concert, flag ceremony honoring Major Brent Taylor, and a playoff-deciding game. City officials and sponsors will also remember fallen officers and local heroes while a DJ spins music later in the night—bringing the community together.
