The 2026 Mt Pleasant Walk With the Dead t-shirt on sale at the event on September 26th
On Saturday, September 26, 2026, The Mount Pleasant Pioneer Association is hosting a spooktacular event at the Mt Pleasant City Cemetery. You are invited to Walk With the Dead , take a step back in time and learn about Mt Pleasant’s pioneers buried right there in the cemetery. You will visit actual pioneer gravestones and hear about pioneer lives, struggles and contributions to Mt Pleasant when it was a new settlement. You will get to know the ongoing stories of Mt Pleasant’s local people resting in the cemetery, whose legacies helped shape our community throughout the last 17 decades, forever remembering those who rest on those sacred grounds.
Meet at the Cemetery any time between 4 p.m. and 7 p.m., the walk will continue until 7 p.m. A kid’s story walk and kids games will be happening simultaneously.
At 7:30 PM there will be a twilight 1K and 5K walk/run through the cemetery. Runners are invited to come in costumes, all ages and abilities are welcome. Following the 5K run at 8:30 p.m. The Sanpete Theater Co. will be performing Kickin’ the Bucket, a comedy for all ages.
Available for purchase at this year’s event, Mt Pleasant Walk With the Dead t-shirts will be the hottest item for this fall. In memory of the youngest children resting in the Mt Pleasant Cemetery or to honor a child you know and love you can sponsor an “Angel Pinwheel” for five dollars. There will be vendors and food trucks. All are invited to this Fall Festival, so please join the fun.
There is no admission fee for the festivities, but visitors are invited to donate what they can to help support The Mt Pleasant Pioneer Historical Association and The Relic Home which is located at 150 S. State St. in Mt Pleasant, Ut.
