Bringing our town back.

What we do

Less talk about 1963. More about right now.

We put on the events and tackle the projects that make Drexel a place to live, work, play, visit — and return to: concerts and fish frys, murals and historical markers, grants for the downtown park and Main Street’s hundred-year-old buildings, cleanups and trail days. We do it hand in hand with the Town of Drexel, the alumni association, the fair board, the museum, and the Burke River Trail Association.

“We may not be able to solve everything. But we can do our best to make our community the best it can be — for those living here right now, and for generations to come.”
