The
Beaverdam Heritage Days Foundation is a non-profit organization founded in
1996 for the purpose of broadening our understanding of the history,
culture, and contributions of various groups in the founding of the Town
of Beaverdam. All proceeds, beyond those required for annual operations,
will be returned to the community. We are an all-volunteer organization.
Our goals include:
- Providing scholarship awards that
support students pursuing studies in history.
- Providing financial support to organizations, associations, and
churches that contribute significantly to the mission of the Beaverdam
Heritage Days Foundation.
- Providing financial support to our local fire and rescue squads.
- Supporting the Beaverdam Depot in restoration and historic
conservation.
- Fostering student learning by encouraging active involvement in the
foundation's annual event which celebrates the history of Beaverdam.
- Heightening awareness of the contributions that various groups have
brought to the origin and development of the quaint village of Beaverdam.
- Celebrate the rich heritage of Beaverdam through an annual event that
includes music, crafts, living history exhibits, children's games, fun,
food, and fellowship.
