If you come to the Heritage Days in Angelica for the focus on local historyyou will certainly enjoy this year’s program. The festival is sponsored by the Angelica Booster Citizens and takes place in the town square in the center of Park Circle National Historic District.

Starting with the 100-year-old Soldiers’ Monument, which was placed in Park Circle in 1924 and later moved to Until the Day Dawn Cemetery, Self-guided audio walking tour focuses on “things that are no longer there” or have been repurposed. Booster Citizens and Angelica Tourism Trek have teamed up again to create the eight-stop tour, accessible on your smartphone by scanning a QR code.

The croquet tournament on the unique “roque” court has been a highlight of Heritage Days since the event began in 1969. This year’s competition will feature 13 two-person teams competing for the championship. The semi-finals are scheduled for Saturday, with the finals taking place on Sunday afternoon.
