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 1,
2018 at the Brantwood Community Center located on Highway 8 at Stadium Road
(County D North). Our celebration will begin at 2:00pm with our Annual
Meeting and election of officers followed by dinner served from 2:30pm -
4:30pm, 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.
Insight to celebrating Finnish Independence Day will be provided. A silent
auction and a holiday basket raffle will be held. This is one of our four
annual fund-raisers and our 23rd 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 and help share in our unique
local heritage. We also have several major projects planned and are asking
for additional funds, through donations, to make these dreams come true.
Any donation will be greatly appreciated. We have recently put the new roof
on the Spirit Baptist Church and poured the concrete for our planned
pavilion. 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." We also hope to see you in March and at our
summer events at KCHC in June and September 2019.
