While History is our passion, it’s important to keep our Society communication in the present! Society member and Crossroads Rendezvous Co-Organizer, Mary Boyle, has agreed to help us with our website and social media upgrades. Stay tuned for some website updates and, if you are a Facebook user, head over to the brand new SAHS Facebook Page! SAHS currently has a Facebook Group, which will not be going anywhere, but a Page works better for promoting the Society and its events, while a Group is better for discussions or the sharing of photos and memories among members. Be sure to “Like” the Page and share with other members of both the SAHS and the community!

The Saukville Crossroads Rendezvous is back!

From 1991 to 2006, the SHS ran the Crossroads Rendezvous historical reenactment at Peninsula Park every third weekend in May, bringing thousands of visitors to Saukville and providing an incredibly unique educational experience for area children and their families. Revenue from the event funded the restoration of the 1912 Firehouse, located on Mill Street in Saukville, that the Historical Society calls home.

In the fall of 2017, Mary Boyle and Sara Dahmen, two historical reenactors from Port Washington, decided it was time to bring the Crossroads Rendezvous back.  Together, with their families and the Saukville Historical Society, they are excited to  introduce a new generation of visitors to the magic of living history and the important part “the crossroads” of Saukville played in the history of our community, State, and Country.  Join us at the Crossroads this May!
