Making memories with family, friends and neighbors and bringing together the community to celebrate — these are the aims of Vineyard Days, coming up the week after Memorial Day.
Our council and staff have planned activities throughout the week to give residents and visitors an opportunity to see all that Vineyard has to offer!
We kick off the week of Vineyard Days, on Tuesday, May 31, with a Better Days exhibit featuring the traveling statue of Martha Hughes Cannon. Residents can participate in a variety of learning activities about the role of women in Utah’s history. The exhibit will be from 10 a.m. to 6 p.m. Once the exhibit ends, we will be hosting an “Empowering Women” panel discussion in conjunction with Timpanogos Regional Hospital to help women find greater joy and direction in their careers.
Come enjoy “We Don’t Talk about Bruno” and the many other delights of “Encanto” for a movie at Grove park on Wednesday, June 1, at 9 p.m. Movies in the Park are one of Vineyard’s most beloved summer traditions — don’t forget to bring your chairs, blankets and popcorn.
