HIGHER EDUCATION
UWP…what college should be

projects? Professors teaching small-size classes using the
latest technologies? Academic programs that are aligned

facilities in a warm, caring and friendly environment?
Incredible opportunities for involvement in activities,
programs and events? If you believe this is what college

HEALTH CARE & WELL BEING
“My doctor said I needed surgery.
After planning the surgery, I
learned I needed to plan my
recovery, too.”
Residents of the greater Platteville area are fortunate
to have their healthcare needs met by several medical
clinics, a hospital and a number of independent physicians, dentists, chiropractors and other qualified
healthcare providers.
My doctor suggested post-hospital care at
an HCR Manor Care “nursing home.” My
doctor told me, “they’re different than you
think.” So, I met their physical therapists,
visited their rehab area and talked to the
admissions director and case manager
who reviewed their successful patient
outcome history. After my surgery, HCR
Manor Care helped me rehabilitate so I’d
be ready to go home. I was surprised at
how young the patients were and that
many of them were receiving medical
rehab and returning home.
Accredited by The Joint Commission, Southwest
Health Center is located at 1400 East Side Road.
It offers the latest diagnostic and treatment options
and features a physician-staffed 24-hour emergency
room. Complete surgical and rehabilitation services
are offered along with a specialty physician clinic.
Adjacent to U.S. Highway 151, the beautifully-designed
Southwest Health Center facility offers expedient
access to quality care.
At HCR Manor Care, our team has
the expertise to guide you through
your personalized care program
so you can plan your recovery as
part of your planned surgery.

KATIE’S GARDEN
Katie Vaassen was a
very inspirational
young lady who
symbolized the
word “volunteer.’’
While in high
school, Katie
volunteered over
800 hours at the
Chamber of
Commerce and
continued to work
there while attending college. Katie passed away at the
age of 23 in May, 2004. As a tribute to our special
friend, the Chamber dedicated a garden in her name
“Katie’s Garden” on July 25, 2004.
Dozens of volunteers donate their time and talents to
make this one of the most beautiful places on earth!
This garden is full of color all season long and has
benches, tables, picnic areas and walking paths
throughout. The focal point is a beautiful gazebo
where one can sit and enjoy the beauty of the gardens.
It has become a destination for weddings, wedding
receptions, garden parties and picnics. Countless
photographers enjoy the beauty of this Garden during
all four seasons. Bridal Boutique filmed a commercial

in Katie’s Garden in 2008. “Katie’s Garden” is the
anchor to the Platteville Community Arboretum and
Rountree Gardens project that encompasses areas
along the Rountree Branch Trail. The trail, which
meanders along the Rountree Branch stream through
the Platteville community, is a picturesque quiet
hiking and biking trail that is becoming a focal point
of the community. As the Chamber/Visitor Center
is located along the trail, the creation of “Katie’s
Garden” is only the beginning of a truly wonderful
experience for our visitors and community alike.
A visit to “Katie’s Garden” is a must!
Platteville Community Arboretum
A grassroots community initiative, the Platteville
Community Arboretum, began with the development of
Katie’s Garden in 2004. This community-based organization consists of a Board of Directors and numerous
volunteers. Due to the success of “Katie’s Garden,”
more garden and natural areas have been planned
along the Rountree Branch stream and trail. A dog
park was developed along the trail and is a great place
to exercise one’s pet. A community garden is one of the
next major projects. Other future plans include woodland gardens, flower gardens, and prairie and natural
areas as well.

well cared for. There will be a large opening ceremony, a large veteran’s parade on Sunday, July 12 with a
formal closing ceremony. Between opening and closing, there will be many related events in the tri-state

Platteville began as Platte River Diggings in 1827. Once
home to the Winnebago Indians, Platteville was settled in
the mid 1820’s by European miners who were attracted by
rich lead deposits. After the discovery of mineral lead in
the area, the region’s economy began to flourish.
Tour The 1845
Lead Mine & Ride
The 1931 Mine Train
In 1827, Major John H. Rountree and Major John H.
Campbell purchased Metcalf’s lode and opened a general
store. Two years later, this small 150-person community
was named Platteville. The town was planned in a style
reminiscent of Yorkshire, England – quaint and practical
– with access to the town’s mine entrances. In the 1800’s,
the town was further developed and Platteville was
incorporated in 1880.

people in their everyday lives which grew to a collection
of over 20,000 items. The guided tour of the Rollo

exhibits of carriages, farm implements, tools, a tavern/

was the site of the original Platteville Academy, which
existed from 1842 – 1866 when it was converted to a state
Normal School. General Ulysses S. Grant dedicated the
north wing of Rountree Hall in 1867. It also housed the
Wisconsin Mining Trade School, which was responsible
for the creation of the Big “M” on the mound seven miles
east of Platteville. (see “Outdoor Adventures’’)
The Heartland Festival produces musicals each summer with a
“stock’’ company of professional actors. The Festival shows are on a
