Small Towne America... Something Worth Saving
The main mission of Small Towne Preservations is to acquire, rehab, and restore the many forgotten commercial buildings in small towns and villages. Starting with ourbeloved home town of Sharon, Wisconsin we hope to see every building occupied with a thriving business making our downtown a vibrant destination. Along with forgotten commercial buildings, many historic homes find themselves run down, with only a faint idea of the greatness they once were. Our mission is to help homeowners acquire grants and funding to restore these homes to their past grandeur. The last piece of the puzzle is the small towne way of life. Through community projects and events we hope to instill the tight knit sense of community that makes small towne living so great.
With the help of donors like you, we have been able to complete several community projects
In 2023 we took on our biggest project to date!
In July, we acquired one of the oldest buildings in Sharon, Wisconsin. The Prindle House, more commonly known as the Sharon Tap and Bowl is home to a vintage second story bowling alley that was installed in 1938. Prior to that, the building was home to a general store, jewelry store, and even an ice cream parlor. Through gifts from donors like you, we are embarking on pealing back the layers and restoring the building back to its original look and feel. Once restoration is complete we plan to open a low cost community fun center with family friendly games, food, and bowling!
