History:Formed
in 1988, and incorporated in 1991, the Historical Society of Ogden Dunes has
been housing important town archive materials since its inception, and provides
a popular and continuous series of programs since 2004. The society maintains a
modest museum with limited public hours in the former O.D. and Tillie Frank

continues to operate with generous contributions of many individuals, as well as
grants from: The John W. Anderson Foundation, the Ogden Dunes Community Fund,
and the Sara Lee Foundation. The Historical Society of Ogden Dunes is a 501(c)-3
not-for-profit organization.
