Pioneer Days at This Is The Place Heritage Park, Salt Lake City, UT, July 24

History buffs get a taste of the olden days when the Mormon pioneers officially arrived in Salt Lake City in the 1800’s. Go back in time and enjoy some of the same activities the pioneers had for entertainment such as foot races, games, and crafts. The day ends with a ceremonial bang from the famous Candy Cannon. thisistheplace.org
