Winter beauty
The Grant County Fair grounds in Herman glow in the low winter sun.
Summer beauty
These colorful flowers were planted at the Herman-Norcross Community School last summer by a group of community volunteers. The second bed of flowers resembles the American flag when viewed from above. Plans are afoot to repeat the feat this coming summer.

Community sculpture in Herman
Sculpture created by members of the Herman community and artists who took part in the 9th Annual Herman Iron pour is on the lot between the Post Office and Larry's Auto Parts on Highway 9 in Herman. The sculpture was designed to be expandable, so if your family, church, or other organization has an idea for an addition to it, let the Iron Pour committee know in time for next year's 11th Annual Herman Iron Pour. They would be happy to help you make your idea a reality.
More information about the Herman Iron Pour is here.
Wow!
Thank you to each and every one of you who attended the Herman-Norcross All-School Reunion! Nearly 1,000 people enjoyed reminiscing with each other at the Fairgrounds Saturday, July 5, 2003. We hope you will all come back and see us again at the next All-School Reunion. Better yet, why wait? Come back and see us again soon -- and often.
Here is a complete -- we hope -- list of the people who registered for the All-School Reunion.
