Snow Removal –
- If there is no new snow, it is not necessary for volunteers to come to the temple.
- If you are unsure if there has been new snow at the temple, you are welcome to call or text our Grounds Supervisor, Matthew Wright, at any time before the assignment. He can be reached at 801-750-7906.
- We have about a dozen snow shovels for volunteers to use. If more than 12 people sign up then we would need a couple of people to bring a shovel. We ask that if individuals bring their own shovels that they are not metal or metal blade shovels.
- If it has snowed during the night, we ask stake volunteers assigned to the morning to arrive around 6 am so that we can get sidewalks cleared for patrons. The temple has machines which will clear parking lots but all sidewalks and approaches must be cleared by hand.
- A recommend is not required for this service opportunity. All volunteers are welcome so long as they can perform the work safely.
- When we do have snow, we will meet at the utility building at the southwest corner of the temple parking lot for orientation and a prayer.
- Please have volunteers dress appropriately for the weather.
