This sweet pup showed up at our Public Works (901 NW Rhoton Rd). While we're ready to put them to work, we think they'd rather snuggle up at home.

If that home is yours, please reach out to Public Works.

🎓 To the Yelm High School Class of 2026: Congratulations! 🎓

Before they were serving the community, managing projects, planning events, maintaining parks, balancing budgets, and helping keep Yelm running, they were high school seniors just like you.

Today, we're sharing a few throwback senior photos of City of Yelm employees to celebrate this year's graduates and remind you that every journey starts somewhere.

Whether you're heading to college, the workforce, military service, trade school, or still figuring out your next step, we're proud of all you've accomplished and excited to see what comes next.

Congratulations, Class of 2026! Your community is cheering you on every step of the way.

Join Mayor Joe, Chief Carlson, Public Services Director Cody C**t, and Recreation Coordinator Line on June 16th for our monthly Community Conversation.

What IS a Community Conversation?
It's an opportunity for residents to meet, ask questions, and have their concerns addressed in an informal environment. This month, we will be joining the Yelm Lions Club during their regular meeting. This is a great opportunity to learn about their organization as well.

Join us monthly to engage directly with city leadership.
