Celebrating America’s 250th, Box Elder Style

BoxElder250 is Box Elder County’s community-led celebration of America’s 250th anniversary in 2026. Towns, schools, museums, cultural groups and local businesses are hosting their own events to look back at the county’s history and ahead to its future.

Brigham City Tabernacle

History Worth Celebrating

Box Elder County has a front-row seat to American history. The transcontinental railroad was completed at Promontory Summit in 1869, and Brigham City’s Main Street, historic Tabernacle and museums tell the story of the people who settled the valley.
