Thank you!

15 Years and Counting When hard-working, smart, and impassioned people come together, anything is possible.

15 years ago, two former Horicon Reporter editors sat down for dinner, discussing their experience working with the people of Horicon. Back then, there was a lot of talk about what Horicon lacked, and these two journalists thought the time was right to start focusing on what Horicon did have, and more importantly, on what it could have. From that discussion, the Horicon Phoenix Program was born.

Founded on a love for the community, these impassioned people moved forward, raising funds to develop a wide range of community programs that helped Horicon rise. Few in town have not been impacted in some way from the efforts of the Phoenix Program, whether that be through the exceptional produce and goods available from the Farmer’s Market, a fun night out at the Market Summer Series, attending school with the help of a Phoenix Scholarship, or gaining helpful assistance from the Phoenix Baby Pantry.

The faces have changed over time, but the mission continues. Everyone who has worked with the Phoenix will always be grateful for the community businesses, service organizations, and community members who have supported us throughout those years. In 15 years, the program has come a long way in making Horicon a better place to live, and the future looks bright for Horicon and the Phoenix Program because of your support.

Sincerely, Bob Rettmann, Founding Member horiconphoenix.com | 319 E. Lake Street, Lower Level, Horicon, WI info@horiconphoenix.com
