This image highlights the first day of the public Temple open house on July 29, 2006. One major challenge was to keep the plants alive that had recently been planted in the withering heat around the Temple grounds. Parts of the image- such as the three girls and the golf cart -were actually taken on August 25th at the same spot and later added to the image. The posed family appears to be photographing themselves! |

Concrete finish work at the front gate of the temple. Just over 10 million pounds of concrete was poured (including the foundation, walkways etc…) - enough to pour over 100 “regular” size driveways. Zoom into the right to see workmen unloading wooden wall panels for the temple. The TempleCam is mounted on top of the construction trailer. |

Area members of the church have done a marvelous job in preparing the Sacramento Temple Host Center. The Center is a conversion of the Mormon Center Cultural Hall (formerly a basketball court). The Host center is the final gathering place after the temple tour. Two panoramas show the Host Center before and during the open house.
