Old Settlers' Day

Old Settlers' Day is a Perkins Tradition that began in 1923. Every fall, people from across the state join our Perkins Community friends & neighbors for a parade and street festival celebrating our unique cultural heritage.

This year, our community will join together in making Perkins the Happiest Place on Earth as we bring the Magic to Main Street with a Disney themed parade and street party. We hope you will join us Saturday, September 30, 2023 as we celebrate our 100th Old Settlers Day: The Wonderful World of Perkins!

We are looking for enthusiastic characters to join our committee, parade, vendor list and food truck options. Please explore the options linked on this page to participate in this historical event.
