Eveleth Heritage Committee is one
of two Independent Councils of the Laurentian Chamber of
Commerce.
The mission
of the Eveleth Heritage Committee is to help maintain and
expand the economic vitality of the community by supportin
and promoting the preservation and interpretation of the
culture, history, and heritage of Eveleth.
One of the activites the
Committee undertakes is an annual gathering to discuss some
aspect of Eveleth's history and to present an award for
