The Kenyon Business Park was completed recently, and we are gearing up for advertising new businesses to flourish here. We have had another new restaurant open recently, and have an ongoing restoration of the M.T. Gunderson House, listed on the National Register of Historic Places. Most recently, we’ve put new life in the old fire hall and have a community garden open for families wishing to grow food.

History of Kenyon

In 1855, the first settlers arrived in the area.

L.N. Bye settled in the north corner of sections 7 and 8. Christian and Sever Halvorson settled in section 18 just west of the Old Stone Church, whose construction didn’t start until 1871. L.A. Felt built the first building in town on the north side of the Zumbro in 1856.

These four men were the first to open up the Kenyon area.

The following year in May 1856, James A. Day and James M. LaDuc came and made claims to where the village is now situated. LaDuc named it Kenyon after his alma mater, Kenyon College in Gambier, Ohio. The year 1857 was busy. A steam saw mill was built. It stood where the swimming pool is now. In March, Stephen Bullis established Kenyon’s

first hotel, “The Pioneer,” on the corner just west of Roseview apartments. The village boomed with the arrival of the Chicago Great Western Railroad in 1885. A store was opened by P.L. Berg in the area of Kenyon Ace Hardware. By 1893, the village had two hotels, a foundry and machine shop, a large brick school building, a tannery, two banks, a flouring mill and a weekly newspaper. A second railroad, the Chicago Milwaukee, came along in 1903.

The small village continued to prosper until 1908 when the “April Fool’s Day Fire” destroyed seven businesses along Main Street.

Momentum was regained after World War I and after the worst of the Great Depression. Kenyon Municipal Utilities

GOING

took over electrical service in 1932 and has maintained it ever since. Telephone service, started by Dr. Joseph A. Gates in 1901, was continuously improved until a modern exchange connected all residents with service.

The school in Kenyon was accredited in 1896. In 1915, the voters of Kenyon decided a new school building was needed. Work on the $62,000 structure was completed by mid-December that year and the building was dedicated in 1916. A new gymnasium/ auditorium was added in 1938 and another addition was done in 1962. A new elementary school and Picha Memorial Field were constructed in 1954. Kenyon schools combined with Wanamingo in the fall of 1990 and became District 2172.

A new Kenyon-Wanamingo Middle High School was erected in 1998 alongside the former elementary building, housing grades 5-12. A monument to the old school building is currently being designed using the decorative egg and scroll pediment and cast nameplate saved from the original 1916 building, which was demolished in 2013.

Boulevard of Roses: If there’s one thing that is iconic of Kenyon, it is the impressive Boulevard of Roses. People driving through town on Hwy. 60 are appreciative of the beautiful display of 100 colorful and fragrant tree roses planted along Gunderson Blvd. The

history of the roses dates back to 1962, when Kenyon resident Lloyd Jystad asked permission to plant 10 standard tree roses to ornament the boulevard. He was a city employee and donated his time to care for the roses.

The unusual roses attracted so much attention that Harold Severson suggested they plant 100 roses. The new larger display garnered national acclaim, and the Boulevard of Roses was officially dedicated on June 30, 1968. Today, Kenyon city workers care for the roses, burying them beneath the ground in the fall and unearthing them in the spring. The variety of blooming rose colors and fragrances are well worth a closer look during the summer months.

Historic M.T. Gunderson House: This local gem is located on the corner of Gunderson Blvd./Huseth Street. Built in 1895, this Victorian style home home is on the National Register of Historic Places and managed by the Kenyon Area Historical Society.

Tours are available on the third weekend of each month in the summer and for certain events during the winter. People may book the home for special occasions such as a wedding, shower or

birthday event at a reasonable fee. The KAHS holds fundraiser and educational events at the home throughout the year, such as the cookie walk during Christmas in Kenyon, a special Norwegian Holiday Dinner and book talks by author.

Kenyon Community Gardens: Two community gardens -- one near Trondheim Park and one with raised beds near First Lutheran Church-- offer residents the opportunity to grow nutritious food and develop a love of gardening within the community. Gardening provides benefits in mental health, nutrition and exercise, and the gardens were developed with grants through Live Well Goodhue County.

Plaques may still be added to the wall and forms are available at the park. Service and branch flags fly over paved walkways, making for easy access. During Kenyon Rose Fest, the park hosts a Field of Flags along with a memorial program.

History of Wanamingo

According to the Wanamingo Historical Society, the town was named after a heroine of an Indian novel that was popular at the time. The original village began with the platting of 40 acres by James Brown in sections 25 & 26 in 1857. That land is located 1 mile west of present day Wanamingo.

In 1903, the Chicago, Milwaukee and St. Paul Railway Co. platted and sold lots for a new town where the present day township is located. With the rail line right in the township, growth came quickly thereafter and Wanamingo incorporated in 1917.

In 2003 — with its population then exceeding 1,000 — Wanamingo turned 100, and celebrated with a logo contest and pin, plays and a keepsake calendar.

Wanamingo still has an original old log cabin which sits at the south end of Main Street near the old water tower. The Wanamingo Fire Department celebrated a century of service to the community in 2013. :

The city has the honor of being the namesake for former Gov. Mark Dayton’s German shepherd.

History Dennisonof

A village that originally was part of Warsaw and Northfield townships in Rice County, Dennison was named after Morris P. Dennison, a settler near its site in 1856, on whose land the village was located. The little village was first settled by 1849 and incorporated as a village on December 3, 1904. Dennison became a city in its own right on July 20, 1907. Its post office began in 1885, although there is some confusion as to whether it was named Spring Creek before the post office was established in Postmaster Gunnar A. Bonhus’s general store.

Dennison himself first visited Minnesota in 1849 from Vermont, brought his family in 1856, and filed a land claim, building a log shanty in the center of the city. He moved to Northfield in 1865 and died there in a farming accident in 1879.

History of Nerstrand

In 1856, Norwegian immigrant Osmund Osmundson moved to Wheeling Township in Rice County, where he homesteaded at the present site of Nerstrand, building a house and farm. In 1877, he built a store on what became the right-of-way for railroad tracks on what is now Main Street. In 1885, the Minnesota and Northwestern Railroad (later the Chicago Great Western Railway) was constructed, extending from Lyle, Minnesota, in Mower County to St. Paul. Osmundson platted the town on the line, naming it after his hometown of Nedstrand in Norway. Osmundson later became a

state legislator.

Thorstein Veblen, who grew up just outside of the town, became a nationally renowned sociologist and economist. His farmstead is now listed on the National Register of Historic Places.

Nerstrand’s first city hall was built in 1897. A newer one was built in 1907. That building, as well as homes belonging to Osmund Osmundson and another famous Nerstrander, Tosten Bonde, are also considered national historic landmarks.

Places to visit

Nerstrand Big Woods State Park

Located just a few miles up the road at 9700 170th St. E by Nerstrand, Big Woods features nearly 3,000 acres of the old growth woods that covered much of southern and central Minnesota before settlers arrived. The park offers environmental education, birding, a visitor’s center, camping and hiking on a variety of wooded trails. Additional features include Hidden Falls waterfall, spectacular spring wildflowers, and fabulous fall color. Wintertime activities include snowshoeing and cross country skiing, on occasion by moonlight. The park is open daily from 8 a.m. to 10 p.m.

Nerstrand City Hall

Built in 1908, the hall is listed on the National Register of Historic Places. It is one of Rice County’s best examples of municipal buildings constructed in the first decades of the 20th Century.

Nerstrand Meats & Catering

This family owned business has been in operation at the same location since 1890. They maintain a century old tradition of preparing, producing and serving fine smoked meats and specialty foods.

Thorstein Veblen Farmstead National Historic Landmark

This historic farm is not only the homestead of world renowned economist Thorstein Veblen, but also a working flower farm and farm stay

destination. Tours are by appointment only, scheduled on Wednesday afternoons between Memorial Day and Labor Day, located at 16538 Goodhue Avenue, Nerstrand. For more information, see www.historicveblenfarm. com.

History of West Concord

Organized in 1884 along the path of the new railroad line, the village of West Concord gets its name from the nearby town of Concord. Many businesses and homes were built in the early days as the town grew. Building materials were plentiful and there were many good jobs.

The town outgrew several smaller schoolhouses and voters eventually approved a bond for construction money to build a brick school building. Completed in 1902, with additions built in 1914 and 1936, the school still stands and is now the West Concord Historical Society Museum. The gymnasium and stage section, which were built with the assistance of a Federal grant and WPA workers, are now the West Concord Community Center. By 1991 the West Concord School District combined with Dodge Center and Claremont to become the new Triton School District.

West Concord had a large stock pavilion which opened in 1919 on the north side of Main Street. According to accounts, it sold 110 head of registered Holsteins for a total of $42,655. Dairy and farming were big business for the area, and it was known to sell and ship dairy cattle both nationally and internationally.
