The Knox Creek Heritage Center in Brantwood, WI, dedicated to preserving the heritage of the pioneers who settled these great Northwoods, will be hosting our “Mid-Summer Cook-Out” on Saturday, July 25, 2026.
The grounds will be open at 11 am for everyone to experience our historic buildings and artifacts. Local crafters are invited to display their wares. Homemade Finnish bread and pulla (a cardamom braid sweet bread) will be available for sale. A lunch will be served with grilled burgers, brats, and hot dogs (for the kids), with all the fixings and will be served from noon until 1:30 pm. This is one of our four annual fundraisers since being established in 1995.
Come enjoy the afternoon with old friends and newcomers looking to reconnect with their historic roots. We are looking for anyone who can help with putting on this event, in the kitchen, serving, and cleaning up afterward. Please reach out to Kevin Wollemann, President, at (715) 551-5967 to commit to helping for the day.
We are also seeking individuals and families to become part of KCHC. By becoming a member, you can help maintain our unique historical site. We have had a couple of major projects recently completed; the Main House and Keto House have been resided and painted, and turned out fantastic! Any donation of time and/or money will be greatly appreciated. The next BIG project is with the Spirit Baptist Church, and we are soliciting suggestions on what can be done (and fire is NOT AN OPTION).
Mark your calendars for our third annual Chili Cook-Off on Saturday, September 19, 2026 (donate your best chili for judging and an opportunity to win a Grand Prize…and bragging rights).
