The Greendale Historical Society has hired consultant and grant writer Stephen V. DeLeers as part of its campaign to renovate the historic former Police Station and Annex building.

DeLeers will work with the Historical Society with board development, organizational structure, public relations and grant writing. DeLeers has worked with non-profit organizations for more than 20 years and has assisted groups including the Wisconsin Conservatory of Music and the Latino Community Center.

The Historical Society hopes to raise $2 million in less than a year to rennovate the former Police Station and Annex into a museum, gift shop, office space and a community meeting room.
