LEHI, Utah, Oct. 5, 2018 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- From flu shots to a Halloween costume parade and crafts for kids, the Steward Urgent Care Lehi community open house will have a scary good variety of healthy treats for people of all ages.
The Steward Urgent Care Center in Lehi opened in July and the public is invited to a grand opening celebration on Thursday, October 18.
