Chamber Welcome

Welcome to the 3rd Annual Brooklyn Area Community Guide. We want to thank the businesses and community groups that help us each year to make the Guide a success. This coming year the Chamber will continue to promote and serve our members and other businesses in the area. Meetings are once a month and we’ve been experimenting with lunch time meetings and different days of the week to make it more convenient for members to attend. We hosted a Business Fair in February and plan to make it a yearly event to highlight the businesses our community has to offer, and we’d like to thank Down Home Cookhouse for opening their restaurant for the event. There is a need for activities for youth during the summer. The Village Recreation Committee has summer youth from the end of June through early August. The Chamber would like to come up with some ideas for students in fifth grade through ninth grade. If anyone has any suggestions, please contact the Chamber.

Brooklyn Area History The Village of Brooklyn started out as part of the Town of Brooklyn and Town of Rutland. Charles Sutherland received a land grant in 1844, and after homesteading for two years, he was deeded the quarter section 1-4-9. The Town of Brooklyn was registered in 1849 and the village developed in this town. Growth of the village began in 1855 when Hiram Capwell purchased land from Sutherland and enticed the railroad to locate through his property. The railroad laid tracks in 1864 and Capwell filed a plat map and registered as the proprietor of the Village of Brooklyn in 1868. The railroad allowed residents to travel to larger communities, brought commercial development, and the village grew. It formally incorporated as a Village in March of 1905. Merchants from Evansville, Oregon and Rutland came to Brooklyn soon after to set up markets and businesses. Primarily an agronomy economy, the Plat Map of 1891 shows stockyards and the first industry, the Duplex Windmill factory, were both located on Market Street. They were followed by blacksmiths, a church, shops, railroad hotel and the largest grain mill between Chicago and Minneapolis. The first school was built in 1883 for $3,000 in the Legion Park. This building burned down and a second school was built in 1903 at the site of the present school. Our school was incorporated with the Oregon School District in 1962. Brooklyn Elementary School is still an anchor of the community.

Brooklyn Village and Town Resources The Village is looking forward to a year of growth in 2020. Going into the new year, the final two businesses are being built in the Business Complex, new duplexes and homes are being completed at the north end of town, and a new music venue called Main Street Music and More has opened in Andy Meyer’s building on Main Street. This year is also a big election year. There will be four elections this year – February 18, April 7, August 11 and November 3. There are three Village trustee seats to be filled in April. Incumbents, Sue McCallum and Kyle Smith, will not be running, while incumbent Dan Olson will be running for re-election. There is still the opportunity to support the Village by being on the board as a write-in candidate. The Recreation Committee has expanded their offerings at the Community Building. The gym is free for anyone wanting to play Pickleball weekday mornings between 8 and 10:30 a.m. In the summer, Pickleball will be offered in Legion Park on one of the tennis courts. In addition to their continuing Yoga classes, they offer an aerobic class and switch between PiYo®, WERQ®, Country Heat® or Zumba®. Adult Karate classes have also started. You don’t have to be an expert for any of these classes; beginners are always welcome. Punch cards are available for all the classes or they offer pay as you go. For the kids, there is Ballet in the spring and fall and Summer Rec starting late June through early August.

Carter & Gruenewald Company, Inc.

A new addition to the Village is the Sunday Dance Party. Every Sunday night from 7:15 to 10 p.m. there is ballroom dancing at the Community Building. It is $10 per person and includes beginner lessons starting at 6:30 p.m. Dance to a DJ or live music on occasion.

Brooklyn Area Veterans Memorial The Brooklyn Area Veterans Memorial reflects a commitment to the community and our soldiers. Since the Revolutionary War until today, over 800 men and women have left the Brooklyn area to enlist in the Armed Forces to defend our country. To honor these heroes, Brooklyn Area Veterans Memorial Council, Inc. and advisors developed the Memorial to depict military eras that correlate with the events of Brooklyn area history. This memorial is a reality due to dedicated workers, generous donors and a wonderful commitment by our community and citizens. This tribute to our veterans will be preserved for many decades through multiple donations, purchase of pavers, fund raisers and bequests. Contact the Council by calling (608) 516-5401 or (608) 455-5049, emailing lyle@wanlessauctiongroup.com or send information to P.O. Box 272, Brooklyn, WI 53521, www.brooklynveteransmemorial.org.
