To keep the project going, we have set up a GoFundMe page (click on the button above) to assist in raising funds for the project. We would like to invite you and your business to help out by contributing whatever you can. All donations are tax deductible. Please share this opportunity with everyone who enjoys learning about our shared history and the stories of people who lived and worked right in the areas where we live and work today..
Total construction costs will be approximately $400,000, of which the Historical Society will contribute $130,000. What remains is the $270,000 needed to complete the project. All funds will be used to hire local Lake County construction, excavation, and plumbing contractors to build the 40’ x 60’ building, complete with an ADA bathroom.
Help us keep this valuable and historically significant carriage collection in Lake County and available to the public!

CARRIAGE HOUSE HOEDOWN WAS A HUGE SUCCESS
More than 100 of Lake County's Museum supporters and donors came out to help the Historical Society raise funds to build a Carriage House for Lake County's collection of horse-drawn carriages.
We want to give a huge THANK YOU to the sponsors, donors, and museum volunteers who made it happen.
