Rexburg Races

Today, as the Teton Dam Marathon races through Rexburg and the Flood of Memories film shows at the Romance Theater, we as a community remember the tragedy that took place as an origin story for both of today's events. Next year marks 50 years since the dam broke in 1976, unleashing 80 billion gallons of water on the communities below. In preparation, the Rexburg Cultural Arts Department is compiling a series of events and activities to commemorate that community-defining disaster. Introducing "Flood 50". Over the next 12 months, please join us in remembering stories, serving our communities, and reconnecting with our past. Visit Rexburg Cultural Arts online for more info. rexburgarts.org

🚦🏃‍♂️ATTENTION REXBURG! The Teton Dam Marathon is coming through town this Saturday, June 7th, and with it, you might encounter traffic delays and a few street closures to ensure the safety of all participants. Please note: the route has been updated this year—affected streets on the east and southeast side of town will be closed starting at 5 am and reopen after the last runner passes through, usually by 2 pm. Check out our graphic here of the Rexburg route, or visit our interactive Construction Impact Map online for more details. This exciting event attracts thousands of visitors to Rexburg, so expect longer wait times and increased traffic across town. Let’s show our hospitality by being patient and allowing yourself some extra time to reach your destination this Saturday.

Due to unforeseen circumstances (our boiler is having trouble), we regret that we have to delay the opening date of Rexburg Rapids. We hope to be ready for opening on Monday, June 9th. How important are heated pools anyway? Only kidding. We can't wait to see you when the water warms up!
