Even as Door County History Days wraps up this weekend, residents and visitors can continue connecting with the area’s heritage throughout the year.

This year’s Door County History Days celebration focused on America’s 250th birthday, with members of the Heritage Alliance of Door County hosting special programs across the peninsula. The fifth annual event concludes this weekend with America 250 exhibits at the Sister Bay Historical Society, Liberty Grove Historical Society and Heritage Village at Big Creek in Sister Bay.

Destination Door County encourages that historical curiosity to continue through its Door County Heritage Trail Pass.

The Heritage Trail Pass takes participants to 32 locations across the peninsula, allowing them to earn prizes along the way.

“Behind every stop on the Heritage Trail Pass is an organization dedicated to preserving and sharing a piece of Door County’s history,” said Elizabeth Charney, marketing and sales manager for Destination Door County. “The pass helps connect people with those stories while shining a light on the individuals and organizations working every day to preserve our heritage for future generations.”
