Bingham Canyon will revert back to the "Good Old Days" when it will take on the atmosphere of the true mining camp which it was 60 years ago. Galena Days celebrates the finding find-ing of Galena ore in the canyon by the early settlers of Salt Lake Valley. This year the time of the celebration has been set to coincide coin-cide with the Mining Congress meeting in Salt Lake City. Since schools will have reconvened after af-ter the summer recess, it is hoped hop-ed that there will be school bands entered in the parade which will take place on Saturday, the 14th. Any individual or organization which has had entries in other celebration parades is invited to participate in the Galena Days parade. Former citizens of Bingham Bing-ham Canyon will be notified concerning the time and place of the "Oldtimer's Get-Together". Those who expect to participate partici-pate in the beard growing contest con-test have things well started. Those who do not wish to "let their hair (grow) down" will have to purchase a permit to shave. The "Deputies" are again on the job to "arrest" those without with-out hirsute adornment; it won't be long until the "judge" will take his place at the jail house to mete out his penalties; the "hang tree" will be in place to care for the serious offenders. Western attire or old time dress will be the order of the day in the canyon until September 15. Various mining contests will take place during the celebration along with other attractions of an old time mining camp. Everyone Every-one is invited to come to Bingham Bing-ham Canyon for Galena Days, to see the fun, be a part of the fun, and have a gay time.
