2023 Peach Days Parade
Peach Days at Brigham City—A Partnership with USU Extension Language Programs We are delighted to sponsor Peach Days, an iconic event in Brigham City that celebrates the rich history and heritage of the community. Originating in 1904 as a day to take a break from harvest work and celebrate the abundance of Utah's finest peaches, Peach Days has evolved into a cherished tradition. Every year, the event draws approximately 35,000 spectators from the Top of Utah and Southern Idaho, taking place the weekend following Labor Day each September.
This year, we were particularly excited to have Mr. Shi-Zhong Zhang, a dedicated Chinese language instructor, organize a participation unit for his students in the Peach Days parade. Demonstrating enthusiastic involvement, Mr. Zhang and his students contributed vibrantly to this significant cultural event. We are proud to be part of such a longstanding community tradition and look forward to future collaborations.
