Newsletter May 2024


May is National Historiic Preservation Month and we celebrate by announcing our local Historic Preservation Awards. Check out this year’s recipients. We appreciate the extra care and respect they show for their historic properties.

The National Trust for Histotric Places helps us advocate for historic preservation with a list of economic and environmental impacts of preservation. You can also see the different ways we have to recognize our local historic properties. 

Thanks to all the Deere and other company employees who took part in the Day of Caring.

Your ongoing support and preservation  of historic Rock Island  is appreciated, and as always, please share this newsletter with anyone who you think may appreciate the articles.  Note that this is formatted to print on a large sheet of paper, so the pages may not seem in order.
