Howdy ya'll!

We've been getting a lot of questions concerning Trick-or-Treating in regards to Boo in the Park. We are pleased to announce that Boo is NOT replacing traditional trick-or-treating activities!

Trick-or-Treat will officially begin at 6PM on Tuesday, October 30th. During this time, we remind all residents to have both a courteous and patient mindset. There will be a lot of children on or near our streets, and with all the festivities going on, it will be your responsibility as a motorist to make sure you do their part to keep them safe. We most certainly do not want a tragic accident on our hands.

Between 6PM and 9PM, the speed limit on all city streets will be 15MPH. Remember that pedestrians always have the right of way. Taylorsville Police Department will be out patrolling more actively than usual, and may at times be running blue rights to be more visible.

We hope to see everyone outside enjoying the evening at both events!

All the best,
​Mayor Phipps

It's that time of year again, the temperatures are getting SLIGHTLY cooler, the days are getting shorter, it must be fall, ya'll! With the change in seasons also comes an increase in outdoor activities. Here's just a few of the events going on in Taylorsville over the next few weeks!

"Nothing Sweeter Than a Tartar Homecoming"
October 24th-26th

It's time for you to find your way back home to Taylorsville for some good Tartar football! Our homecoming parade will take place on Wednesday, October 24th, beginning at 4PM. The parade will begin at Taylorsville High School, head south on Hester Street, then turn left on Eaton Street. The parade will then pass down Main Street before ending back at the school. Following the parade, there will be a community pep rally in the City Park. Friday nights are best spent under the lights in Taylorsville, and that is true this week as well as the Taylorsville Tartars take on Clarkdale to finish out the regular season of football. Pre-game homecoming festivities begin at 6PM, with kickoff afterwards at 7.

Boo in the Park
October 30th

Everyone is welcome to join the Town of Taylorsville, the Chamber of Commerce, and the Mayor's Youth Council for our first ever Boo in the Park! A family-friendly alternative to traditional trick-or-treat activites, this event is sure to please both parents and the kiddos alike! There will be fun, games, and of course, candy! Did we mention it's free?

Grillin' and Chillin' 2018
November 3rd

Grillin’ & Chillin’ is back for 2018 with free admission!

So with all these events, there's no excuse for you not to get out in the community and enjoy what Taylorsville has to offer! As mayor, I encourage every resident to try one of these events and see what our community offers! I hope to see you out and about!

All the best,
Mayor Phipps
