The Basehor Historical Society will soon have a home. We will be moving into 2812 155th that will be used as a temporary museum. Lela Wiley and family donated the building to the Society to be used for a museum. Along with the Wiley donation, was a $25,000.00 donation from Mr. & Mrs. Bill Beaver in memory of Gloria Neu for renovations, Heartland Plumbing & Heating will be donating the plumbing, heating and cooling. Miller Sign Shoppe will be donating signage for the outside of building, Dixie Kreider donated $1,500 to assist us with the purchase of an emergency exit door. Many donations are continually coming in.

Plans are to still raise the money needed to construct a Museum and Conference Center to be located at 158th & Parallel. A citizen in the community has pledged $15,000.00 towards the Museum & Conference Center project. We have received the first installment of that donation which has been placed in a secure account. 

If you would like to donate artifacts, abstracts to home properties, cash donations, or time in helping with renovations contact the society at (913) 724-4022 or Project Manager Doug Neu at (913) 724-1646.
