“The greatest story after the flood was the people who stayed to help.” — Honoring those who came to serve in 1976

The response to the Teton Dam Flood became one of the largest volunteer and relief efforts in Idaho history. Thousands showed up to help neighbors rebuild homes, clear debris, deliver supplies, and support one another.
Flood 50 honors that spirit of service by inviting our community to serve again.

SERVE during Flood 50 with:
• Daily community service projects throughout Flood 50 week
• Food drives, blood drives, and cleanup projects
• Volunteer opportunities connected to marathon events
• Partnerships with America250 and local service organizations
• Community-wide projects focused on giving back

Help us “flood the feeds” with opportunities to SERVE together. Flood 50 begins next Monday, June 1.

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!

The results of the Police Station Bond election are now final. The bond measure did not pass. We truly appreciate the residents who took time to engage with us – whether by asking questions, attending town halls, touring the current facility, reviewing shared information, or voting. Community engagement and feedback are, and will always be, an important part of how Rexburg plans for the future. While the bond was not approved, the facility challenges that led to the proposal remain. Moving forward, City officials and the Rexburg Police Department will take time to evaluate options and consider the best path forward. As those conversations continue, we remain committed to providing education, facts, and updates across our official channels. Thank you, sincerely, to everyone who participated in the process.

We heard residents' concerns over the cost of the bond. By reducing the project scope, we lowered the estimated property tax impact. The May bond proposal has a $3,285,138 lower cost than the November bond proposal. By making changes to the bond plan, voters can consider a proposal that better addresses residents' concerns.
