Homelake Veterans' History Museum

Homelake Veterans' History Museum The goal of the Museum is to honor and celebrate the service of its residents and the Valley who have served through artifacts, memorabilia and a database.

At the present time the Museum is located in the old Dining Hall and work is being done on the old Administration Building for the Museum’s future home. The goal of the Homelake Veterans History Museum is to provide a venue to curate and display the artifacts and memorabilia of the residents of Homelake and veterans of the San Luis Valley. In addition to this, it is the goal of the Homelake Vetera

ns' History Museum to provide to the public access to the records of the residents and the veterans of the San Luis Valley through an online database. This database is being developed from the records of the Veterans' Center, newspaper articles, personal communications, cemetery records, etc.

In October 2025 the HHPRF and the Museum held an event to introduce the Foundations current Preservation and Restoration Project; the Homelake Old Administration Building. Once this building is restored, it will become the new home of the Homelake Veterans History Museum! If you were unable to make the event, and are interested, I have attached a video that covers some history of Homelake, the foundation, and the Museum. It also provides a virtual tour of the interior of the Old Administration Building. It is a narrated video approximately 12 min. long. Hope you enjoy it. Don't forget to Volume up!
