The Templeton Historical Museum Society will host a celebration of Founders' Day, the 1886 arrival of the first passenger train in Templeton. This day marked the town as the southern terminus of the train line from San Francisco to Los Angeles. 

Guests can enjoy the 12:00 presentation of colors by members of the American Legion, and learn about the history of the Salinan Tribe. Also:
—the main house, blacksmith shop, and railroad depot will welcome visitors, showcasing Templeton's past
—the museum will have antique vehicles, tractors, and railroad artifacts on display
—"hit and miss" machinery will be in operation
—blacksmithing demonstrations and music.

There will be activities for the young and young at heart, including cakewalks, games, and a 4-H petting zoo. As always, the Templeton Museum will offer free pie and cake, available until supplies run out—a Founders' Day tradition since 2006.
