Camp Point Historical Society

A few years ago, the Camp Point Historical Society used funds from community fundraisers and generous donations to digitize every issue of the Camp Point Journal. Today, these archives are easily accessible from the comfort of your home computer, making it simple to explore the rich history of our community.

It’s an engaging experience—you may find yourself lost in the fascinating news stories, local events, and glimpses of everyday life from years gone by.

When you stop by the Camp Point Public Library on Friday night for Christmas in the Village, venture to the north room of the Library and meet the founding fathers of Camp Point! Stroll through time with a look at some old fashioned Christmas toys and traditions.
