This event is a litigation fundraiser to help prevent a luxury development from being built on the banks of the Colorado River, just outside of Moab. The area is a fragile riparian floodplain, and it is near many popular outdoor recreation spots for climbers, hikers, and mountain bikers. We hope to rally the Salt Lake community around this cause in an area many of us love to visit, and to raise funds for the legal battle we are fighting. The event will feature live music by local artists including the Trash Moon Collective, the J-Rad Cooley Band, and Queen Street. We ask for a $5 - $30 donation for entry. https://kanecreekwatch.org/

Join us for a weekend in the mountains! Camp Tuttle invites all adults, for a weekend of relaxation, rest, and connection. Join other members of our community in classic camp activities like hiking, singing around the campfire, and arts & crafts. We will participate in mental health and identity formation work as well! Since 1958, Camp Tuttle has provided a safe place for spiritual, environmental, social, and personal transformation. Campers and counselors work to create a safe place to challenge comfort zones, societal norms, thinking patterns, and understanding of the life and world around them. Our Camp experiences are for youth rising grades 2-12 grade. Through this work, we provide abundant opportunities to connect with self, others, nature, and the Divine. Mountain peaks and rushing rivers root us deeply to God and call for action in protecting, sustaining, and nurturing the creation for which we are responsible.
