HOLIDAY LIGHT PARADE
This event has been CANCELED
Thank you for the many years of support for this event. The Santa Parade started in 2020 during Covid as a way to still interact with the community and then evolved into the Holiday Light Parade as a part of our Centennial Celebration in 2024. To ensure safety along the parade route in the dark, we made the decision to cancel this event.
Please email recreation@lindon.gov if you have any questions.
ACTIVE AGING
WHAT IS ACTIVE AGING?
Newton’s First Law of Motion is “an object in motion stays in motion.” So let’s get moving!
Research shows that if you start living a healthy lifestyle earlier in life, you have better chances of staying healthy as you get older. Staying physically active, eating well, socializing, and improving your health can help you live a healthy, happy, and active life as you get older.
This is a wonderful time of year to get out and enjoy the beautiful mild weather. Take a walk around the block and soak in the sunshine and fresh air!
