The U-Days committee is currently looking for new volunteers!A big part of what makes U-Day special is the tradition of citizens coming together and graciously sharing their time and talents with the community. U-Days wouldn't be possible without all the locals who generously volunteer and make sure the celebration comes off as a success. If you are interested in volunteering contact: City Council Member, Jerry Smith 801-476-7502
The U-Days Committee is always grateful for donations for the year’s Uintah Days celebration.
During the two days of celebration we rely heavily on donations and sponsorships to make the U-Day events possible.
We accept donations in the form of cash and/or monetary or prize items for our silent auction, 5k run, and raffle.
We are a small community with a small tax base, so your donation is greatly appreciated!
Your donation may be tax deductible, so please ask for a tax donation receipt.
We will also feature each commercial business donor or sponsor publicly on our events banner.
If you are interested in making a donation, please contact: Uintah City Hall 801-479-4130.

In 1994 the U was lit with oil lanterns for the last time. Click here to see the photos.
In 1970 U-Days was reported in the Ogden newspaper. Click here to see the article.
Thanks to Leora Dye!
