The recent ice storm in Barton County was less destructive than in many other areas, but left a huge clean-up mess for everyone here at the Barton County Historical Village. We would like to send our appreciation for all the cooperation and extra help provided for our five acres.
Special thanks to the crew at the Great Bend compost site, Barton County sheriff’s trusty program, and to Randy Suchy for his equipment. We were able to get things in good shape so that everyone can visit the village and rediscover our unique past without delay.

Building and Grounds Maintenance Supervisor
