Beginning 1984 the Dayton Gurdwara Sahib was establish with very few families in the Beavercreek area. As the sangat grew larger and larger there was a need for expansion of the guru ghar which lead to the movement to the Harshman location. Currently there are 200 families whom are part of the congregation of the Dayton Gurdwara Sahib. We are close knit family of Sikhs and welcome any and all whom wish to join.
