Historical Society of Ogden Dunes, 115 Hillcrest Rd, Portage, IN 46368, US

The Portage Community Historical Society is dedicated to preserving and sharing the rich history of Portage, Indiana. With a focus on the city's past, the society brings together individuals interested in learning about Portage Township history. From the early years of youth basketball to the three consecutive Portage High School basketball sectional titles, the society covers various aspects of the city's sports history. Additionally, the society maintains the Alton Goin Museum, which showcases artifacts and exhibits that highlight the city's heritage. Portage, incorporated as a town in 1959 and later becoming a city in 1968, has a history that stretches back even further. Despite the transformation from a rural community to a suburban setting, the city's agricultural roots can still be seen in its old farmhouses, county roads, and cornfields. As new businesses and subdivisions continue to emerge, the Portage Community Historical Society works diligently to preserve the history of the area, fostering an appreciation for the past and guiding wise planning for the future.Generated from the website
