We apologize if we may have missed any of our volunteers, we thank you dearly for your contributions. Highland Fling would not be possible without our amazing volunteers!
We’d also like to recognize our Highland City Mayor, City Council Members, Youth City Council, Youth Service Committee, and City Staff for their efforts
The initial mission statement of the society is, "To preserve and [share] the past of Highland City for a better present and future." As their first project, Greenland, Schoenfeld and other historical society members are working to put together a comprehensive written history of the city. In addition to the written history, the historical society has a small museum in the Highland Community Center, 5378 West 10400 North. The museum displays a collection of historical artifacts, for example, household items and small tools.
The historical society meets the third Wednesday of each month at the museum, at 7:00 p.m. The meetings are always open to the public. If you have items you'd like to donate or lend to be displayed at the museum, give Greenland a call at 801-913-5200.
