Historic Elk Rapids Township Hall Association Launches Capital Campaign, Starts New Chapter
By Craig Manning | June 7, 2026
By the end of this year: That’s Karen Morris’s ambitious timeline for paying off the mortgage on the Historic Elk Rapids Township Hall. Morris is president of the Historic Elk Rapids Township Hall Association (HERTHA), which bought the building last fall after a months-long saga that nearly saw it sold off as a residential use. Now, Morris and her team are ready for a new chapter – one involving building improvements and modernizations, more events and community uses, and bigger cashflow and economic impact. The first step is owning the hall free and clear, and HERTHA has launched a new capital campaign with precisely that goal in mind.
