Handcart Days celebrates 75 years

By Becky Ginos

BOUNTIFUL—It might only be May but it’s time to start planning to attend one of Bountiful’s biggest celebrations – Handcart Days. There’s a change this year with the event being held after July 24. In past years it’s been before the holiday. This year it will be July 25 and 26. The change was made so the celebration wouldn’t conflict with the Days of 47 parade downtown.
