Who We Are 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 Jerry’s 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 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 elemen-

Discover Kenyon 2017

tary 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 school was erected in 1998 alongside the former elementary building. It is now known as Kenyon-Wanamingo Middle/High School (grades 5-12). 2017 marks the 26th graduating class of Kenyon-Wanamingo High School. A monument to the old school building is currently being designed using the decorative egg and scroll pediment and cast nameplate from the original 1916 section of the building. 

How We Celebrate FESTIVALS, ANNUAL EVENTS

Christmas in Kenyon: Held on the first Saturday in December, this community event stirs the holiday spirit with downtown window painting, horse-drawn wagon rides, visits with Santa (for the pets too!) and hot cider/treats at downtown businesses. Guest readers entertain children with their favorite Christmas book at the library and the Kenyon Area Business Association hosts a chili feed luncheon. If you like Christmas cookies –and who doesn’t – plan to attend the cookie walk at the M.T. Gunderson House on the Boulevard of Roses. Made by members of the Kenyon Area Historical Society, these family-recipe cookies are sold by the pound and they go fast. In the early evening, attend the community Christmas tree lighting at the Veterans Memorial Park and sing carols by candlelight. The final events of the day are a live nativity held at St. Michael’s Catholic Church and the community Christmas concert featuring local talent.

Schweich’s Hotel, Food and Bar: This 1908 historic brick building was originally the Central Hotel and Café, operated by Hans E. Bergh. Over the years it was home to several different clothing businesses and then sat vacant before developer Lawrence Schweich renovated the building reusing some materials, such as the original stamped tin ceiling tiles. The old Central Hotel was brought back to its original purpose. The hotel offers 5 full suites on the upper level, restaurant and bar on the main floor, private event space on the lower level and a full-length outdoor patio. The décor features a cherry wood floor-to-ceiling bar, exotic animal mounts and old school conference memorabilia. Location: 632 2nd St, Kenyon, MN 55946. (507) 789-5800 Boulevard of Roses: If there’s one thing that is iconic of Kenyon, it is the impressive Boulevard of Roses. People driving through Kenyon 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 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.

Originally referred to as “Cannon Park” for the cannon it contained, the park has grown into a true memorial to veterans past and present. In 2017 there will be an official dedication ceremony for the newly-improved park on Sat., July 15.

Service and branch flags fly proudly over the park’s paved walkways leading up to three memorial walls of honor.

The walls feature the name, rank, branch of service and time of service of the honored veterans. Plaques are still being added to the wall and forms are available at the park or by contacting Mike (Mac) McDonald at 507-789-5461.

During Rose Fest the park hosts a field of flags along with a memorial program to honor the area men and women who fought with honor and served with dignity.

Wanamingo 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 one-mile west of the present day Wanamingo.

In 1903, the Chicago, Milwaukee and St. Paul Railway Company 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 issuing 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. : Wanamingo has the honor of being the namesake for Governor Mark Dayton’s German Shepard dog.

DISCOVER NERSTRAND

Nerstrand HISTORY

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 North Western Railroad (later the Chicago Great Western Railway) was constructed, extending from Lyle, Minnesota to St. Paul, and 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.

Location 1.4 square miles along state Highway 246 in Rice County.

DISCOVER DENNISON

Dennison HISTORY

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.
