My Nonprofit Reviews

I was able to help the ERHS by taking part in the bi-annual Cemetery Walk, and acting as one of the Eagle River professionals of an earlier era gave me touch of the Eagle River history I am coming to value. Seeing the ERHS continue its mission by expanding to two sites, after having moved from the Trees for Tomorrow site, demonstrates, for me, what a dynamic group of people can do to capture the imaginations of those who value history. I look forward to the opening of the new site on Highway 45S and the uncrating of all that must be stored presently. I look forward, also, to seeing students pour over the exhibits and the artifacts, searching for a context that includes either their families or people about whom they have heard while studying Wisconsin history or the history of Vilas County. ERHS is invigorating the history of the area (witness the Sunset Point summer evening event) and awakening many to the treasures around us.
