Our Purpose
The Harvey Regional Heritage & Historical Association, Inc., commonly referred to as Harvey Heritage, was founded in 2010.
The purpose of the association is to provide a local resource to assist in the preservation, dissemination, and the full inclusion of the history and heritage of the Harvey Rural Community.
Our Governance
Harvey Heritage is an incorporated, not-for-profit organized community “Volunteer” group, joined by membership, governed by a constitution and by-laws, and managed by an elected board of officers and directors.
Board members are: Sheryl Bartlett, President; Bill Ross, Vice President & Secretary; Don Moore, Treasurer ; and Directors Betty Piercy, Katherine Henry, Judy McNally, Alexander Bridge, Randy Lynch, Tim Patterson, and Adrian Davis.
Our Funding
In order to fulfill its purpose, it is necessary to maintain physical space for storing documents, photos and heritage items, buy and maintain equipment, and maintain other assets. All of this requires a certain amount of operating funds. To this end, we are funded primarily through our own fundraising efforts, membership drives, generous sponsorships of businesses in our community, grants and contributions, and donations from interested citizens.
Our Meetings
Monthly gatherings open to members and anyone interested in our heritage are planned for the discussion of historical topics, presentations, updates and so on. Notifications of date and times will be sent to members by email and generally advertised through social media and other means. They will be held at the Harvey Heritage Mall located at the Upper Village Mall in Unit 7 (the Octagon). Board of Director meetings are held separately.
Our Logo
The Harvey Heritage Logo was redesigned by Alexander Bridge in 2023.
