The official 55th Annual Sinclair Lewis Days poster is here! 🎉

A huge thank you to the Sauk Centre Herald for designing this year’s poster and helping us showcase everything coming up for Sinclair Lewis Days.

From July 15–19, Sauk Centre will be filled with community events, family fun, live music 🎶 , food, shopping 🛍️ , tournaments, the parade, fireworks 🎆 , and so much more. There is a LOT packed into this week, so save this poster, zoom in, circle your favorites, and start making your plans!

Please help us spread the word by sharing this post with your friends, family, coworkers, neighbors, former classmates, favorite cousins, and anyone who loves a good small-town celebration.

We can’t wait to see you in Sauk Centre!

🎥 Sauk Centre is ready for its close-up! 🎥

This week, Visit Sauk Centre is partnering with Explore Minnesota and Sizzle Media to film a new promotional video showcasing the people, places, businesses, art, trails, music, and small-town charm that make Sauk Centre so special.

And here’s where YOU come in!

We’ll be stopping at several local businesses and community spots on Wednesday, June 24 and Thursday, June 25. If you stop by during these times, you just might end up in the next Sauk Centre promo video! 👀

We would love to see these locations filled with smiling faces, friends, visitors, and community pride as we work together to showcase Sauk Centre.

Wednesday, June 24
6:00 PM – Purple Parlor
6:30 PM – Babbitt's Wine Bar
7:00 PM – Bandshell / Concert in the Park / Lake Area

Thursday, June 25

We know Sauk Centre is filled with amazing businesses, organizations, and community spaces, and we truly wish we could include every single one in this video. With limited filming time, that just isn’t possible, but this project is about promoting Sauk Centre as a whole and helping more people discover everything our community has to offer.

So grab a coffee, meet a friend for a drink, enjoy the concert, stop for a bite, visit a local favorite, and help us show off the heart of Sauk Centre.

Let’s fill these places up and make Sauk Centre shine! 🎥✨
