Southeast Wisconsin Antique Power & Collectible Society-SEWAPCS Our goal is to preserve and maintain the history, machinery, and ways of the early farmers of Southeast Wisconsin for all generations that follow.

Our main goal is to preserve and maintain the history, machinery, and ways of the early farmers of S.E. Wisconsin for all the generations to follow. This project is very dear to our hearts, and we are so grateful that so many of our friends and fellow farmers are helping us accomplish our lifelong dream by preserving antique farm implements and sharing their talents with all those who are interest

ed in early farming methods. Our membership has so much to offer and is a big part of early farm history. Without your interest and participation in our association, so much would be lost. The Officers and the Board of Directors appreciate your support and welcome you as a Southeast Wisconsin Antique Power & Collectible Society member.

Grace Kane - Society Member - Information and Update

Grace Kane, wife of Board of Director's member Josh Kane was severely injured in a multi-vehicle accident on Thursday, January 22nd. She was taken by "Flight for Life" helicopter Transport to Froedert Hospital in Milwaukee and stabilized following the accident.

In the days since, Grace has had to endure several surgeries to her right leg and ankle, which suffered extensive damage in the accident. She also broke at least one rib, and will have a long road to full recovery.

Grace's brother, Matthew Hipper, has created a "Go Fund Me" page and is seeking donations to aird Josh and Grace through the financial stress that will likely accompany the recovery process. The "Go Fund Me" link is below, and the first two comments contain links to the news stories that have been published.

UPDATE: Grace will be released from the hospital today. Grace and Josh welcome your well wishes, but please be patient and respectful of their needs and wishes as they navigate the next few days. They are currently not recieving visitors directly.

Note: The fatality was the other driver who crossed the road. Of the two other drivers involved, Grace was more seriously injured. None of the vehicles had any passengers that I am aware of.
