Come take a tour of the Boardman House, built in 1692 and preserved as an architectural study property by Historic New England. Built for William Boardman, a local joiner, this house has survived three centuries remarkably intact and today provides an opportunity for close study of early construction techniques and finishes. Tours are ongoing between 11am and 3pm, and are free for Saugus residents and members of Historic New England. For more information please call 978-768-3632.

Saugus Founders Day started 32 years ago during the 350th Celebration, the people of the town loved coming together for the Country Market in front of the Town Hall. In the 1940's the farmers and neighbors in this Town brought their fruits, vegetables, preserves, flowers and home-sewn, knitted and wooden crafts to the Town Hall where they shared their stories and renewed friendships. There will not be a rain date this year. If the rain is too heavy we will move to Saugus High School. If it is just a light rain we may stay at Town Hall.
