Volunteers have been busy this week as they get ready for the summer opening of Pioneer Town in Cedaredge. Saturday, May 26, is Heritage Day, with free admission and lots of activities to encourage people to explore the many buildings and exhibits of Pioneer Town.

Surface Creek Valley Historical Society celebrates Pioneer Town's season's opening with Heritage Day — an annual event, this year held from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. on Saturday, May 26.

Pioneer Town and the Welcome Center take on a special look and feel of earlier days in the Surface Creek Valley.

Heritage Day is a free day of special events including demonstrations of early crafting skills, hay rides, music in the chapel, and extra exhibits throughout the grounds and 24 buildings.

Cedaredge Rotary Club will be selling hamburgers and more at lunch time.

You are encouraged to dress in pioneer or western style clothing if desired though not at all necessary. Bring your camera; there will be plenty of photo opportunities.

Look for the three tall wooden silos and Welcome Center just off Highway 65, two blocks south of Main Street in Cedaredge.
