Light Exhibit - Museum of Ancient Life
Did you know that distance in space is measured by how long it takes light to travel there? The distance between the Earth and sun varies, so that means that the light we have here on Earth is about 8 minutes old by
the time we see it. Learn facts like this and more in the Andersons’backyard in the Museum of Ancient Life.
Space Garden - Farm Country
Seeds that have been in space? Tiny tomatoes? The Junior Master Gardeners are planting space plants and creating lunar plant growth chambers as they learn about the future of NASA and food in space.
Solar System Walk
Ever wondered how far away Earth is from Venus? How about which planets are the closest together? The Andersons wondered too, and they built this walk through the solar system in Thanksgiving Point Gardens
to show you. Learn the vast nature of the solar system and the size of and distance between planets all in the beautiful serenity of the gardens. You’ll walk the gardens as if you were in the solar system exploring the science beyond planet earth.
Activities, Day Camps, Star Parties
Build and launch a rocket at a Garden Adventure event held at Thanksgiving Point Gardens. Sign up your little ones to be summer astronauts at a NASA day camp. Or attend a star party hosted with the Clark Planetarium and explore the galaxy using high-powered telescopes.

Community Garden
Many have taken advantage of the plots available by the church building to start family gardens and it's been so much fun. It's great to see all of the people out there, by themselves or with their families. So much green is showing up all over and some plants are beginning to produce! It's wonderful when you put so much work into something to see the fruits of your labors. Many people are meeting new friends and getting to socialize with neighbors we maybe don't see as often as we would like and overall it's been a great experience.
If you haven't taken advantage of a plot it's not to late...yet...
You can still get a plot for $20 and that includes your drip line and water. It's too late to plant many seeds, but you could still get starts or start thinking about a Fall crop. This is for anyone! You do not have to be a member of the church.
Send me an e-mail if you would like the contact information to get your own plot and come out and join us in growing fruit, veggies, herbs and friendships.
See you in the dirt!
Extreme Eaters

110 in the Shade

110 in the Shade
Jun. 28 - Aug. 7
From the same creative team that wrote "The Fantastiks" comes this musical of Lizzie Curry, a spinster in the American Southwest. Two suitors are interested in Lizzie: one is a respectable, upstanding citizen, while the other is a con-man who comes to the moisture-deprived town masquerading as a rainmaker. Lizzie's choice cuts deeper than selecting a beau--she must decide whether it is best to pursue a life of dreams or to live the life that the world considers responsible and reasonable.

Carillon Concert

7 p.m.
BYU Centennial Carillon Tower
The BYU Centennial Carillon Tower has now stood for thirty years as a symbol of freedom and spirit. The annual Freedom Festival Carillon Concert awakens emotions of patriotism and liberty through performances that appeal to children and adults alike.
BYU University Carillonneur Don Cook will perform patriotic pieces, as well as folk, Broadway, classical, and original compositions for an eager audience Hundreds will bring lawn chairs, blankets, and picnics to the shady lawns surrounding the tower to enjoy an evening concert. This is one of the more simple and leisurely events of the Festival.
The tower stands 97 feet tall and contains 52 cast bronze bells. The smallest bell weights 21 pounds with the largest at 4,730 pounds. The keyboard consists of broomstick-like manual keys and short pedal keys that are played with the side of the closed hands and with the feet. Each bell plays until the tone fades away naturally, allowing new tones and fading tones to resonate with one another. Don Cook studied carillon at the University of Kansas until he returned to BYU in 1991 where he has participated in the concert yearly.
