Historic Hermann Launches Campaign to Raise Funds for Major Projects

There are costly projects that need to be undertaken to preserve and enhance the historical treasures of Hermann.

Historic Hermann, Inc. has identified the German School as one of their main projects.  The windows need to be repaired, an air-conditioner has to be replaced, insulation and repairs are needed in the attic.  Additional lighting is to be installed, and numerous outdoor landscaping projects are planned.  The clock works for the school's clock tower needs to have a thorough cleaning, and refurbishing.  Some floors need to be replaced, or refinished, and a donor plaque is to be installed.

In addition to the German School work, Historic Hermann is responsible for moving and reconstructing the Heckmann Memorial (Pilot House) to a new location.  This move was  necessitated by the construction of the new Hermann bridge.

The donor plaque will have name plates in different sizes, depending on the amount of the donation.  Those who contribute will be recognized in the following categories:

"The names of the donors will be proudly displayed," said Joy Kallmeyer, president of Historic Hermann.  "I think it is a great way to let future generations know who helped preserve their heritage."

"We can't do these projects alone.  We need our friends and neighbors," said Kallmeyer.  "Our struggle to raise enough funds to do these projects is real.  We're asking for help in our quest to continue providing an outstanding museum for Hermann citizens, and for all the visitors who enjoy our many historical displays."
