We finally have snow, which means sledding at Sugar House Park.  It also means we need to keep our sidewalks clear of snow and ice.  You can read more about the ordinance and learn about the responsibility of the resident.  If you are able please help those neighbors that may need assistance in clearing their walks as well. Sugar House is full of hidden gems.  To me Fairmont Park is one of those places.  My mother has wonderful stories of riding her bike to Fairmont Park to swim in the outdoor pool, saunter over to the Forest Dale clubhouse for ice cream and a walk along the witches trail on a dare.

December 2014 What is a sense of place? Amy Barry Westminster I have often asked myself this question in relation to places I find special.  Mostly this question has been to my love for wilderness areas and being lost in a desert or canyon where I can barely comprehend the time and natural forces that created these landscapes.  However, more recently I have begun thinking about the importance of place as it is related to my home community of Sugar House. One of my favorite quotes comes from Wallace Stegner who stated "... talking about the knowledge of place that comes from working in it in all weathers, making a living from it, suffering from its catastrophes, loving its mornings or evenings or hot noons, valuing it for the profound investment of labor and feeling that you, your parents and grandparents, your all-but-unknown ancestors have put into it."
