News » Kimberly kicking off centennial celebration
Mar. 16, 2010
100 years ago today, members of Kimberly's village board met for the first time.
Current members are celebrating the anniversary tonight with a meeting of their own.
Village administrator Rick Hermus says Kimberly has grown a lot over the years, and they're now a land-locked community. He says they've turned what could be a negative into a positive by working more closely with their neighbors.
Hermus says members will dress in "period clothing" for tonight's meeting. He says they're using gas lamps to light the room, and the board will sit at a round table, instead of desks.
The meeting kicks off a centennial celebration that will culminate with a big party in September. |
