The Green Bay Packers Give Back
A $500.00 Grant
Tim Rasmussen, President of the Howard-Suamico Historical Society volunteered over 200 hours while working on the house and barn at Ancestry Acres during the first six months of 2019. By doing so, the Green Bay Packers Give Back awarded the Howard Suamico Historical Society a grant for $500.00 in a way of supporting Tim and the time he gave to the Historical Society.
Thank you to the Green Bay Packers and all the hard work given by all the volunteers in working on the house and barn at Ancestry Acres.

If you have any books, cd’s, dvd’s, bluray’s, puzzel’s or games to donate, they can be dropped off at the Village of Suamico offices, Kimps Ace Hardware or Thornberry Cottage.
