Get a Once in a Lifetime View of Georgetown this Weekend

Located at the corner of Volta and Wisconsin, Georgetown Lutheran is currently undergoing an large scale renovation project to restore and modernize their historic parish. As part of that project they are working on the church bell tower, using scaffolding to access the the top.

Taking advantage of the limited opportunity to access this view, the church is opening it up to the community to climb up to the top and take in this unique and short-lived view. More details below:

Our pictures don’t do it justice (we were focused on the repair work) but the scaffold high over our bell tower has the most incredible view of our beloved Georgetown. So when we’ve been up there, we thought of you – and want to invite you, neighbors and friends who join us with a donation to this “People for the Steeple” campaign – to join us for this special view and a history tour for those interested.

It is truly a once in a lifetime view and opportunity. Come learn from and support Georgetown’s oldest congregation, founded 1769 here on this corner. We’re proud to be your neighbor and a community partner that serves and shares. This restoration and renovation work has come a long way to improve our corner: we’re proud of it and want to celebrate it with you. 

Click here to register your RSVP/interest to join us for the view and tour, this Sunday, January 19!

We’ll welcome small groups escorted up the scaffolding pointing out architectural and interesting history along the way. Wear sturdy shoes and bundle up as needed, but know that the scaffold is very safe and easy to ascend: five or so ladder rungs at the start lead you to a secure, five story fully enclosed with full regular staircases and railings throughout. Then join us in the church for some light refreshments and more history, art, and architecture to see and learn about as you’re interested!
