Yes, Arne Halvorsen is coming and History Alive Project knows you will want to welcome him and Jørgen!
Recently, Westby High School Senior, Kaston Compton, was sincerely thanked by the entire History Alive Project Board with a special rosemaled plate.
Kaston has served on the History Alive Project Board for the past school year where he was excellent source of information, especially on agenda items involving our community's teenagers, what was going on at Westby High School and advised Board members of those activities that would work, kid-wise!
History Alive Project HAP Vice-President, David Kraabel (r) did the beautiful Norwegian-style artwork for the plate.
History Alive Project hosted our cultural speaker for Westby Syttende Mai 2025. Former United States Ambassador to Norway, Mr. Tom Loftus,.

Take Part
No place really becomes a community until it is wrapped in human memory: Family stories, celebrated traditions and every day life all contribute to this. No place is a community until it has awareness of its history. Our connections and commitment to one another are strengthened when we share stories and experiences.
