The recently built Community Center and remodeled Patterson Memorial Library is the hub of our community.  As part of the Winnefox Library System, the Patterson Memorial Library provides resources of all types for all the interests of our residents, whether year-round or seasonal.


The Community Center serves as the Senior mealsite.  The Center includes the typical rooms available for meetings, get-togethers, and special events, in addition to a state of the art warming/serving kitchen and a relaxed atmosphere of the library lounge complete with oak tables, fireplace and comfy seating on couches and overstuffed chairs.

Contact the Wild Rose Village Clerk, Lindsey Inda, at (920) 622-4183, to reserve the Community Center for your next event!

In addition to services provided by Winnefox Library System inconjuntion with the Patterson Memorial Library and the beautiful facility; the Wild Rose library staff have accumulated a treasure trove of biographical, historical records, and memoirs of the first settlers of the Wild Rose area.

The library has many resources which can only be accessed on site, particularly those relating to local history and genealogy.

Buy a Brick Program

Financing the community center addition and remodeling of the library was an effort spearheaded by Linda Steffens, head librarian, and the Library Board. In addition to the various fundraisers, grants, and outlying community support, the "Buy a Brick" program was established. A brick patio and outdoor seating area was built using bricks engraved with supporters who purchased a brick to commemorate various people or events in their lives. If you wish to support our library in this fashion, please contact Linda Steffen as bricks are still available and engraved and installed on a regular basis.
