De Pere Historical Society

​What Your Support Means…

Your support of The De Pere Historical Society means more than just a show of your interest in our community’s history, it illustrates your belief in the need to preserve that history for future generations. Membership support is vital to the preservation and maintenance of both White Pillars Museum and the Polo Resto Service Station. Your support allows The De Pere Historical Society to insure the availability of both exhibits, displays, and archival resources at White Pillars Museum which are used every day by our researchers and enjoyed by visitors to the museum. Your support also assists us in our current development of educational programs for De Pere’s Elementary Schools, enhancement of our unique Museum Archive Research System, and in plans for the future of the De Pere Historical Society. 

Membership

The De Pere Historical Society Board of Directors would like to thank you for your membership and support during this past years. The Board continues to maintain White Pillars Museum and the Polo-Resto Service Station along with planning various events during the year. Please stop in and see what changes have been made at White Pillars such as our rotating exhibits and our Digital Archive System (M.A.R.S). The system is very easy to use, even for those with limited computer skills, come in and check it out. The Picture Shows are a lot of fun, very informative and enjoyed by many.
​

The Board of Directors cannot do all this alone, your support is an integral part of what we do. We urge you to renew your annual membership so that together, we can continue to preserve De Pere’s rich history.
