NEW IN OUR MILITARY ROOM

Part of HCHS Mission is not only to preserve local history, but also to EDUCATE the community about our history. To this end, we have a new exhibit in our MILITARY ROOM featuring a TV with educational videos about those from our county who served our country.

WE ARE NOW ON OUR
3rd PRINTING! Thank you for your interest in our
new book!

THE HILLSBORO STORY
is on the shelf now!
With the help of Elsie Ayres' step-grandson and permission of her daughter, we took her 1957 booklet and have increased its size and number of pages. Updated with 2017 information as well as many rarely-seen photographs, this is sure to become a favorite. Elsie's book was originally produced for the Sesqui-Centennial and can rarely be found these days. Stop at Highland House to purchase a copy or you can order online (postage applies). Click on "Online Ordering" on the sidebar above.
$22.95 plus tax
(HCHS Members save 10%)

NOW AVAILABLE!
Add this great documentary to your DVD library! This is the positive and uplifting story of mothers who stood up for their children's education. This was the first northern test case following Brown v. Board of Education.

Looking for a way to "PAY IT FORWARD" to your community? Consider becoming a volunteer at Highland House! We use volunteers as GREETERS, CLERKS in our Museum Shop (special training required), behind the scenes work, such as reframing photographs and documents, marking objects (part of our ongoing cataloging project), assisting with mailings such as our newsletter, and general cleaning and straightening. You might like to become an costumed interpreter in our Log Cabin or love gardening and would like to share in the work of keeping our beautiful grounds lovely. You can call the office at Highland House - 393-3392, or fill out the form on this site (click on "Volunteers" in the side panel for more information or to find the form).

Have you registered your KROGER PLUS CARD listing HCHS as your charity of choice? This costs you nothing, nor does it take any of your fuel points! BUT, Kroger will share part of their charitable giving with us! We currently have 6 folks helping us and our last check from Kroger was over $50.00. Please help and register your Kroger Plus Card Charitable Organization as HCHS!  THANK-YOU!
