We keep repeating these three pillars: Remember | Connect | Serve.
Together, they represent one powerful legacy.

Together, we will REMEMBER the stories, lives, and history connected to the Teton Dam Flood.

Together, we will CONNECT with neighbors, family, community events, and the shared experiences that shaped Eastern Idaho 50 years ago.

Together, we will SERVE in the same spirit of resilience, compassion, and community support that emerged in the aftermath of June 1976.

Throughout Flood 50, these three ideas will guide exhibits, films, races, service projects, tours, celebrations, and community gatherings across the region. And we will honor the resilience that endured long after the waters receded.

Help us flood the feeds by engaging with our posts about Flood 50 - like comment & share so all in the community and the region can participate in this once-in-a-lifetime event!
