FARMINGTON, Utah (ABC4 News) – Lagoon amusement park will not be opening this weekend due to the issues related to the coronavirus.

Representatives with the park said the decision was made in consultation with the Davis County Health Department. They added that the health and safety of guests, employees, and the community is of utmost importance.
