Join us August 3th -13th for a week-long community celebration.In the spring of 1947, Alpine Days began because there was a need: the rock church required shingles. Church leaders volleyed ideas to raise funds and decided on an event with a basaar, a minature parade, meals, contests, games, and entertainment.The celeabration was named Ward Day. World War II had recently ended; commodities still scarce, but there was need and the town came together. An invitation to Ward Day, a Homecoming, was sent to former residents and friends. Successful it was, and so it continued for 28 years, sponsored by the church to fund church projects and programs.
