LOGAN – It’s party time at Willow Park for families at the annual Pioneer Day Celebration and a massive three-band concert lineup at Willow Park (450 West 700 South).
On Friday, July 24, Logan will honor the historic America 250 milestone. Logan City is waving all entry fees for the annual Pioneer Day Parade.

Throughout the day, Willow Park will host three-on-three basketball games, soccer tournaments, and an afternoon Bingo Bonanza. More than 50 food and craft booths will open at 10:00 a.m. and serve patrons until 11:00 p.m. Children ages 12 and under can also look forward to free crafts and the highly anticipated midday “Candy Cannon” drops.
