We need your help.
Can you become a member? We need your sustained input.
With assistance of the Friends and the Ad Hoc Committee, the City, through its Historic Preservation Commission, applied for a grant from the Wisconsin Historical Society to study the archeological details remaining on the Hillmoor property.
The grant has wound its way through the process and we are on our way to selecting a company to complete the survey. More to come on the timing.
We are working on a series of lectures/presentations to accompany the Historical Society grant. Watch for dates of our
BEFORE, DURING & AFTER
presentations on what could be below the surface on Hillmoor.
The 3D model of the Hillmoor property is now on display on the second floor of City Hall. Stop by and see how it makes the terrain visible.

day and all days to come.

It depends on how adventurous you are… Hillmoor has some very beautiful vistas, and the White River winds through it. Note that the city has not taken down the “No Trespassing” notices; travel at your own risk.
OR you can go to the White River County Park, 6503 Sheridan Springs Road, to see the river further along its path.
