The story of Founders Day as we know it is firmly rooted in tradition, it is the successor to both Fireman’s Field Days; a previous incarnation of Founders Day, and a celebration that occurred after the solider on top of Memorial Hall was returned to its proper place in 1987. A Founders Day Committee was subsequently formed, and the first modern Founders Day celebration was held in 1988, and has continued on ever since. (Jack Authelet, Town Historian, The Sun Chronicle, June 1, 2017)

Founders Day is the biggest fundraising day for most of the Town’s non-profit organizations and is organized and funded by a small; but dedicated, group of volunteer committee members. Founders Day is celebrated on the 2nd Saturday of June each year with a parade, festivities and food, live music and activities on Booth Field. The day is culminated with one of the best fireworks displays in this area. Please join us on June 8, 2024 to celebrate Foxborough Founders Day !!
