The earth furnished red clay for bricks used to construct businesses and homes, many of which are still in use. When James and Ephrime Boardman built the first cabins, there were no roads, not even an Indian trail for a guide. The homestead was ten miles from a neighbor, with camps of Chippewa Indians in what are now the townships of Reseburg, Worden and Butler. New settlers followed; trails, and then roads were carved out of the wilderness. Farms sprang up on the fertile land, and schools, saloons, general stores and churches were established. Within ten years, there was the beginning of a thriving community. The Village of Thorp was established on May 29, 1893, with a population of 883. In April 1948, the Village of Thorp became the City of Thorp with a population of 1,052. In the early 1900’s, dairying was so well established, farmers brought cheese makers to the area to begin processing our now famous cheeses. These cheeses and traditional sausages can still be purchased as you travel through our beautiful four-season area. The original Boardman and Indian trails became part of the famous Yellowstone Trail. In the 1920’s, this road, which ran from Plymouth Rock in Massachusetts, to Puget Sound in Washington, was the nation’s first interstate highway to be completed. In Clark County, it is now identified as Highway’s County Road X and State Highway 73. The four corners in Thorp, State Highway 73 and County Road X, are now marked with the yellow stones and signs, which marked the original road. A new movement is in progress to not only retrace the trail in Clark County, but throughout the State of Wisconsin. Helping the Thorp Community Prosper! The Thorp Area Chamber of Commerce’s mission is to strengthen the local economy and serve as a voice of business in community affairs, while recognizing that a healthy business climate is a requirement for a healthy community.

A cow in rubber boots? Or one wearing swim trunks and goggles? Life-size themed cows like these roam around freely in Thorp, Wisconsin, where we’re so “head over hooves” for our herd that we let them out to pasture for everyone to enjoy! True . . . there might be other cities and towns that have cow replicas, but ours are unique. Each of our cows pays tribute to the dairy and agricultural heritage of our community— after all, Thorp is part of Clark County, the #1 county in Wisconsin for dairy farms, milk production, and number of cows (only living, breathing cows were included in this statistic—ours didn’t count)! Thorp’s bovine beauties do count, however, in terms of the pride they convey for the people, places, and events that make our community a wonderful place to call home . . . and a fabulous place to visit! Check off all the cows as you “Moo-ve” around Thorp. It’ll be “udderly” fun! Find a map & a list of all the cows on the next page.

Shortly after winning her first gold award at the United States Cheese Championship in February of 2007, her small retail store turned into a nation-wide supplier of her handcrafted, artisan, farmstead Gouda Cheese. Eight years, and over one hundred world and national awards later, her team has grown to over 30 members, and they now have a brand new, modern dairy farm and creamery right off highway 29 in Thorp, Wisconsin. Rolf and his team milk 300 cows on Penterman Farm and supply Holland’s Family Cheese with fresh, rBGH-free milk that goes from cow to cheese in five hours. Their milking parlor and cheese-making rooms are equipped with large viewing windows, and they offer a variety of tour options you can read about on their new website, www.mariekegouda.com. Plan to stop in at their annual Open House the last Saturday in July to enjoy many family-friendly activities as well as free tours of their farm and creamery, local vendors, live auction and of course, samples of their award-winning Marieke Gouda Cheese. Contact their retail store by calling (715) 669-5230 or shop online and ship anywhere at www.mariekegouda.com. Come, meet our Gouda Family along with DUTCH-ESS the 14’ cow & tour our NEW LOCATION! 30 www.CityOfThorp.com Thorp Community Guide 2015-16 31 Yellowstone Trail T Explore the history of the Yellowstone Trail that runs through Thorp, WI here are seven unique towns along the Yellowstone Trail (County X). They offer a buffet of little gems like small community parks, turn of the century churches, quaint restaurants and American history. In 1912, roads were dirt wagon roads – dust and mud. Citizens gathered to improve and connect local roads to make the first coast-to-coast route in the northern tier of states: The Yellowstone Trail. In 1918, Wisconsin was the first to number its automobile highways and governments were starting to fund good roads. By 1929, the Yellowstone Trail was the first Wisconsin highway to be paved with concrete all across the state. Thorp(e) - Railroad telegraphers dropped the (e) from founder Joseph Gilbert Thorpe’s name. This lawyer, lumber baron and State Senator lived in Eau Claire, but never in his eponymous town. Thorp’s Yellowstone Trail Park is so named because it is on the Trail, (Stanley St., Co. X). The park recently received that name due to a resurgence of interest in the Yellowstone Trail. Outdoor activities there include ice skating and summer live music. Almost two decades ago, local resident Arnoldine Gulcynski was instrumental in reviving interest in the Trail in the area by placing markers at the main intersection in town, Stanley St. (Co. X, YT) and Co. M. At the same intersection is Bob’s Corner Service and next to that Bolt’s of Fun Quilt Shop. In the 1920s and 1930s, Al Capone, the famous Chicago gangster, frequently stopped at this station on his way to his hideout in northern Wisconsin. At the same intersection sits the present Heritage Court Motel in a 100 year old building. There is a large yellow rock on the corner of Hwy. X and Gorman Ave. marking the Trail.
