What's new at the Windmill: Spring and Blogs

Happy Spring from the Windmill!

Finally things are warming up and the tulips are blooming. We are getting a lot of visitors at the Windmill office now that it is possible to be out and about without freezing. The long winter certainly makes one appreciate the warm sunshine even more, and it is nice to see everyone come out of hibernation.

The Windmill Project is moving along nicely as we plan for our new location on Island Park. A new design for the visitor center is being developed and is based on the old Zeeland Mills building which used to be on the island. Our fund raising total is now $2.1 million and we plan to order the windmill from Holland this summer. Excitement is picking up and we are hearing lots of positive feedback on the Island Park site.

I have been thinking about doing a Little Chute Windmill Blog for a while now, to share the everyday things that happen with the Windmill Project, at our office and around town. If all goes as planned, you will be able to read our blog right here on the website. So please check back soon to read about the latest Windmill goings-on!

Little Chute Windmill Blog Coming Soon!!!

If you have questions or comments, please do not hesitate to contact me.

Met vriendelijke groeten (With friendly greetings),

Robin Dekker, Windmill Director
