Woodmen of the World Camp

Over the last few weeks it has been a great pleasure to host groups from the Woodmen of the World Youth Camp here in Nebraska City, NE. Camp WOW, sponsored by Woodmen of the World, is a weekly summer camp for local kids age eight through fifteen. On the last day of each week the kids walked the few blocks over to the museum and have a tour of the factory, as well as see the working ELI windmill across the street. The Woodmen of the World Campgrounds in Nebraska City has on its property an original ELI windmill dating from about the mid-1930's. The kids were able to come here and see what that windmill would have looked like when it was first erected, likely by George & Art Kregel themselves.

We would like to thank Woodmen of the World, Evelyn Alonso, and all of the camp counselors and campers for making the Kregel Windmill Factory Museum part of their summer vacation. We hope to see you all again next year!
