| The History of Collins Marsh….September 19th 1pm. Local historian Bob Domagalski takes us back…waay back… to the area before it became Collins Marsh State Wildlife Area. Bob will begin with the Native Americans residing in the area and progress through the 1835 land survey, the land speculators who received property from the newly formed state of Wisconsin, whom they sold the property to, and the land owners up to the time of purchase for the new Wildlife Area in the early 1960’s. Lots of interesting stories to be told!
