Smaller Crowd Attends Ogden Pre-Pioneer Day Festivities
OGDEN, UTAH -- As many as 50,000 to 60,000 people turned out Sunday, July
22nd for Ogden's 23rd Annual Lindquist Family Summer Pops Concert and
Fireworks, however the crowds were "visibly fewer people" than at last
year's event, which drew an estimated 65,000 people. Some Ogden residents
claimed that the LDS Church's pioneer commemoration broadcast held the same
evening accounted for the smaller crowd.
