In the past, La Crosse County offered a small grant program for established local historical societies in the County. This program was administered by the La Crosse County Historic Sites Preservation Commission. The County portion of the project could exceed $1,000. Local match was not required, but was encouraged. The grants are not longer available, but below is a list of past winners.
