As many of you know, on January 25th of this year, Lola Unruh Passed away. In addition to her many contributions and volunteerism in the Hillsboro Community, Lola had been Chairperson for the Hillsboro Convention & Visitors Bureau off and on for many years. Her Obituary stated a request for Memorial Contributions to be made to Main Street Ministries. In honor of her, the HCVB is asking anyone who is financially able, to join us by making a Donation to Main Street Ministries in Lola's memory. MSM is working towards an Apartment Remodel and Renovation. If you or someone you know is able to help, please send your donation, no matter the amount, to:

Main Street Ministries
415 South Main Street
Hillsboro, Kansas 67063

Thank you!

Call the Hillsboro Museum and schedule a Tour of the Schaeffler House! She's Pretty on the inside too!

We've restored the gas lamps (now electric) that originally graced the Schaeffler's front porch. Thanks to Staci Thurston Silhan and Sue Wadkins for organizing this.
