News Release

Surprise, It’s A Party! Celebrate Battle Ground’s 75th Birthday - 06/10/26

The City of Battle Ground is turning 75, and the City is ready to celebrate!

 

The City of Battle Ground is hosting a free community "Pop-Up Birthday Party" on Thursday, June 18, from 11 a.m. to 1 p.m. at Kiwanis Park (422 SW 2nd Avenue). Residents, families, and visitors are invited to join this family-friendly celebration honoring 75 years of community.

 

The birthday bash will feature a variety of free activities and attractions for all ages, including mini horse petting, face painting, a foam dance party, and a sneak preview of Battle Ground Parks & Recreation's popular Summer Playground Program. Attendees can also enjoy complimentary birthday cupcakes provided by Rabbit Hole Eatery & Coffee while supplies last.

 

Local artist Ana Gabriela Honsowetz will create a live mural on-site. Event attendees will have the opportunity to watch the artwork take shape, ask questions, and learn more about the creative process behind what is hoped to be one of many future community art projects.

 

As part of the celebration, a videographer will be on-site collecting memories and stories from community members. Attendees will have the opportunity to share what they love most about Battle Ground and reflect on their fond memories of the city. These stories will be incorporated into a commemorative video celebrating the people and experiences that have shaped Battle Ground over the past 75 years.

 

A celebration like this takes a community, and the City is grateful for the support of event sponsors Principal Properties, LLC, Ana the Artist, and Rabbit Hole Eatery & Coffee. The City also extends sincere appreciation to the many community volunteers whose time, enthusiasm, and dedication are helping make this milestone celebration a fun and memorable experience for all.

 

Since its incorporation in 1951, Battle Ground has grown from a small community into a thriving city while maintaining the strong sense of connection and hometown spirit that makes it unique. This birthday celebration provides an opportunity to reflect on that history, celebrate the present, and look ahead to an exciting future.

 

Whether residents have called Battle Ground home for decades or have only recently joined the community, all are encouraged to take part in this once-in-a-generation milestone celebration.
