MAYOR’S MESSAGE
We’re living through an exciting time in Riverton’s history! As our economy strengthens and more businesses call Riverton home, we continue to prioritize projects that provide our community with things that improve quality of life. We do this while continuing the wonderful traditions that create and sustain a strong sense of community.
As we look to the year ahead, it is our hope that this calendar will provide you with the information needed to get involved in our community. Whether that is by participating in a community event or by becoming more civically engaged. Highly involved citizens help our community truly prosper.
Our city sponsors many special and seasonal events, as well as recreation programs for both adults and children. We hope to see you and your family often this year.
As we strive to continually make Riverton a great place to live, please don’t hesitate to report problems or issues that need to be addressed. You can easily report online at rivertonutah.gov/report.
