GRUNDY CENTER - From prairie-style gems to Victorian masterpieces - the architectural history of Grundy Center is rich and filled with stories. Those stories and that history will be on display during the Historic Home Tour on Thursday afternoon.
 
The tour - which is being hosted by the Grundy Center Chamber Main Street, Grundy Center Historical Society and the local P.E.O - will be held on Thursday, May 30 from 4:30 to 6:30 p.m. and will showcase four historic homes in Grundy Center in honor of National Historic Preservation Month in May.

GRUNDY CENTER – Earlier this month, family and friends of the GCHS Class of 2019 gathered in the auditorium for the annual Awards Night Ceremony, where this year’s seniors were honored for their academic, athletic and extracurricular achievements.
Beth Bockes, Grundy Center’s National Honor Society advisor, commended the students for all their hard work, and reminded them to always be proud of the community they grew up in, and the family, school and teachers that taught them to be the people they are today. 

When members of the final graduating class at Beaman High School received their diplomas in 1958, most of the current administrators and staff at what’s now BCLUW hadn’t yet been born. But even as the town of under 200 residents endured multiple consolidations in the ensuing decades, the reunions were always can’t miss events, attracting Wildcat alumni from across the country and packing the Beaman Memorial Hall to the brim.
