Adam SmallCORRESPONDENT
To be honest, I don't know a ton about the cost of other disasters, but I mean, i- in a historical context, this may be something to keep in mind.
Adam SmallCORRESPONDENT
This is the first major flood declaration in Utah since 2023, after our record snowpack where we were starting to see flooding pretty much immediately in Sugar House, Kaysville, places like that.
Adam SmallCORRESPONDENT
It was just the craziest winter ever.
Adam SmallCORRESPONDENT
It's been that long since we've had any kind of declaration in terms of flooding.
Richard Paul EvansGUEST
Right.
Richard Paul EvansGUEST
The biggest entities in the world, from my little home in Sugarhouse, Utah.
Richard Paul EvansGUEST
Right.
Richard Paul EvansGUEST
[laughs] It's like with no money.
Amanda DicksonHOST
The church also donated 38,000 pounds of food to five food banks in the area, continuing an effort to deliver 250 truckloads of food to celebrate the country's 250th anniversary.
Andy FarnsworthHOST
The future is uncertain for the Sugar House Santa Shack, as the owner says she's been forced to move it from its normal location.
Andy FarnsworthHOST
KSL News Radio's McKenna Rodriguez has details.
McKenna RodriguezCORRESPONDENT
The shack sits near a construction site for the UTA S-Line, and the spot is needed for additional parking, which is the reason behind its needed move.
McKenna RodriguezCORRESPONDENT
Owner Laurie Bray says she feels like she's in a limbo state with nowhere to go.
Laurie BraySOUNDBITE_SPEAKER
I mean, I've had a couple other cities in the area express interest in it, but I don't have any final decision.
McKenna RodriguezCORRESPONDENT
The shock is a longstanding Sugar House tradition, and Bray says she's seen generations of families visit, with people who came in as kids now bringing their own kids to take pictures with Santa.
McKenna RodriguezCORRESPONDENT
Bray has received messages on social media of people saying they don't want to see it go, and even suggesting places for it to move.
Amanda WarrenGUEST
But I do think that there is this interesting trend around Salt Lake just being a laggard full stop.
Amanda WarrenGUEST
Because if you look at Sugar House where we have like Sweetgreen and Barry's, it's like so New York City circa 2015-
Ali VallartaHOST
Yeah
Amanda WarrenGUEST
... and we're amped to have it in 2026.
Amanda DicksonHOST
All the money raised from the run will cover student lunch debt.
Andy FarnsworthHOST
The 80-year-old Sugar House Santa Shack is looking for a new spot to call home.
Andy FarnsworthHOST
Nearby construction on UTA's S-Line has forced the shack to move, and shack owner Laurie Bray says she feels like she's in limbo.
Andy FarnsworthHOST
The shack has been a longstanding holiday tradition for many local families.
Gina BarberiHOST
[laughs]
Bill AllredHOST
And finally this: for generations of Utah families, the Sugar House Santa Shack-
Kerry JacksonHOST
Yeah
Bill AllredHOST
... has been a part of the magic of Christmas.
Gina BarberiHOST
Yeah.
Bill AllredHOST
Uh, it currently sits near construction for the UTA S Line extension, which is the reason it has to find a new home.
Bill AllredHOST
The S Line is that, I think it's that, uh, train, track th- nobody rides, you know? Goes from Sugar House down to the Central Point.
Bill AllredHOST
Uh, inside the shack, families have made Christmas memories with children sitting on Santa's lap, sharing their wish lists, and eventually bringing their own children and grandchildren to the same place.
Ali VallartaHOST
And Salt Lake City said, "Look, we're gonna give you a beautiful regional park, and we haven't had a new regional park in a long time." And regional park means just, like, you know, kind of a crown jewel.
Ali VallartaHOST
Our other regional parks are Sugar House and Liberty.
Ali VallartaHOST
It basically means huge.
Ali VallartaHOST
And when we got this list of amenities, I was sort of stunned.
Andy LarsenPANELIST
...
Andy LarsenPANELIST
it is harder to get to these places.
Andy LarsenPANELIST
Um, you know, uh, if, obviously if you live by Liberty Park or Sugar House Park, those are awesome amenities, but if you live on the west side where so much of Utah's or Salt Lake's residential housing is, um, it's, it's really tough.
Ali VallartaHOST
Yeah.
Jared HookerGUEST
So Scoville, it's Scoville's.
Jared HookerGUEST
It's in, uh, Sugar House.

Jared HookerGUEST

Paul PugmireHOST
U into Golf has stores throughout the state.
Paul PugmireHOST
Uh, north to south, they're in Riverdale, Sugar House, Sandy, Orem, and St. George.
Paul PugmireHOST
So if you are down here for the Bank of Utah Championship, and you're playing a little golf on the side, and you need something, you can get yourself over to the, the U into Golf here in St. George.
Paul PugmireHOST
Everything you need, it is a full service, uh, golf store.
