Christmas comes to the Hillsdale County Courthouse Gazebo!
For the past 5 years The Heritage Association has taken it upon themselves to decorate the Hillsdale County Courthouse Gazebo to give back to the community for their continued support of their projects. Coming this November will mark our 6th year, Christmas tree lighting will take place the weekend after Thanksgiving!

LOVING OUR COMMUNITY
"As the state Senator who represents Hillsdale County, I have a greater appreciation than ever for the work done by people who truly care about the historic preservation in our community. The Heritage Association is an active group providing arts, cultural, educational and entertainment programming for the community."

“The Heritage Association of Hillsdale recently donated a beautiful sculpture to Mrs. Stock's Park, one of Hillsdale's many parks. The artwork done by Artist Heather Tritchka is remarkable. Hillsdale is fortunate to have such a talented artist and active Heritage Association board.”
- Hillsdale City Manager, David Mackie
