This pin commemorates one of the most dramatic weather events in Lehi’s history — the Flood of 1983.
In the spring of 1983, Lehi experienced unprecedented flooding due to a rare combination of factors: record snowpack, saturated soil, and sudden 90-degree temperatures over Memorial Day weekend. The water surged through Dry Creek from Alpine and Highland, flowing into Lehi and overwhelming the culvert at Lehi Elementary.
Anticipating disaster, the community sprang into action. Dirt was hauled in from the sandpit, ditches were cleared, and nearly 1,500 sandbags were filled by volunteers and city workers. Streets became rivers, bridges were damaged, and recovery lasted for months — but no homes were lost thanks to the preparedness and unity of Lehi residentsflood-back.
This 1" enamel pin features a cheerful yellow duck and rolling blue waves under the phrase “Survivor 1983 Lehi Flood,” capturing both the seriousness of the event and the enduring spirit of the community.
1" hard enamel pin with black nickel finish
Raised emblem on back featuring the Lehi Historical Society seal
Features bold waves, a cheerful yellow duck, and the text “Survivor 1983 Lehi Flood”
Commemorates the 1983 Lehi flood and the community that came together to protect the city
Wear this pin with pride or add it to your collection as a tribute to the resilience, quick thinking, and neighborly care that define Lehi’s history.
