What’s New at the Mansion….from the Exec’s desk – Fall 2020

The 2020 Summer Concert Series has come to an end. We had a tough beginning because of the pandemic. But we had a wonderful line-up and a great crowd. Many Hegeler Carus regulars returned to perform along with a couple of new bands. A 50/50 raffle was introduced. The winners were called at the end of each concert. On two nights, we had a special picnic contest. The prize was a Gift Basket from “Tangled Roots” in Ottawa.

I would like to take this time to thank all of the volunteers bands, vendors, and most importantly the fans and sponsors that came to participate in this year’s Concert Series.

Look to the Spring 2021 newsletter for information about our next Summer Concert Series and visit the event calendar for upcoming events.

Like our concerts, Mansion tours are taking place with social safety protocols in place. Visitors wanting to come for a tour of the Mansion must pre-register . To ensure numbers control, max. 6 people per tour. If you have questions please contact Tour Director, Tricia Kelly at 815-224-5892 (Wed-Sun).

Now that the weather is getting cooler, we are going to be able to re-introduce Half-House and Whole-House Tours. Please click here for details and to reserve your spot.
