50th Birthday Celebration

Description

Sauder Village is turning 50 years old and we want to celebrate with YOU!

Join us Sunday, June 14, for a complex-wide birthday celebration marking the past 50 years and looking ahead to Sauder Village’s future. In honor of our birthday, we’re offering $3 admission to the Historic Village — The very same price as 50 years ago! If you haven’t visited us since your third grade field trip, June 14 is the perfect opportunity to explore what’s new at Sauder Village.

The Village will be filled with birthday-themed activities and 1970s history. Make a birthday card for us and create make-and-take crafts. Learn about ‘70s slang and Sauder Village’s early history as we showcase our growth through the decades.

That’s not all! The Barn Restaurant and Doughbox Bakery will also open for special Sunday hours of 11-7 and 7-3:30 respectively. At the Barn, buy one adult meal, get one kid’s meal for $.50 cents — the original 1976 kids’ meal price! At the Doughbox, enjoy a $.50 cent donut when you purchase a drink. (Both offers are one discount per one purchase.)

Were you a past employee, volunteer or Junior Historian? If so, we are inviting you to a homecoming reunion Saturday afternoon, June 13. Reconnect with former colleagues, find out what is new at the village, enjoy a meal, share your memories and get a special birthday treat. To learn more, email us at [email protected]

Over the last 50 years, Sauder Village has grown from a small living history village to a destination offering endless opportunities for connection, history, and fun. We thank everyone that has visited, donated, and supported us at any point since 1976 and encourage you to join us as we commemorate this exciting milestone.

Our 50th Birthday Celebration is made possible by our generous sponsors.
