Did you know that in addition to America celebrating its 250th birthday this year, the DUP is celebrating its 125th!!!!
Come be a part of this amazing organization, preserving history, making friends, having fun, and serving the community! (Pioneer Ancestry optional). Just ask us how!
There's an unassuming organization right here in Utah that, for 125 years now, has been doing something quite remarkable! The Daughters of Utah Pioneers was founded in 1901 by a small group of women who wanted to make sure the people who settled this state were never forgotten.
Since then, they've collected thousands of pioneer artifacts. They've preserved historic landmarks across the Wasatch Front.
Above all, they've spent generations teaching school children about the men, women and children who crossed the plains to build the life we get to live today.
That kind of dedication is the same spirit you'll find at OPD every July! We honor the past while building something new for the next generation.
This year marks 125 years of the Daughters of Utah Pioneers keeping our history alive. We're grateful for every bit of it.
