The Knox Creek Heritage Center in Brantwood, WI, dedicated to preserving the
heritage of the pioneers that settled these great Northwood's will be
hosting "A Finnish Independence Day Celebration" on Saturday, December, 3,
2016 at the Brantwood Community Center located on Highway 8 at Stadium Road
(County D North). Dinner will be served from 2:00pm - 4:00pm, with the main
dish being Mojakka (a Finnish Beef Stew) cooked in a cast iron kettle over a
wood fire, homemade Finnish whole grain bread. Creamy rice and an
assortment of fruit sauces will be available for dessert. A presentation by
some locals about the history of the settlers and a discussion about some of
the projects the Knox Creek Heritage Center is trying to accomplish will
follow. This is one of our four annual fund-raisers and our 21st year of
existence. We are seeking individuals and families to become part of KCHC.
By becoming a member you can help maintain our unique historical site. We
also have several major projects planned and asking for additional funds,
through donations, to make these dreams come true. Any donation will be
greatly appreciated. Some of the buildings (we have nine) are older than
100 years.and need some TLC. We hope to see you all there for a great
"Finnish Independence Day Celebration" and a little bit of our local
history, good times can be had by all.
