Black Creek is a village in Outagamie County, Wisconsin, United States. The population was 1,316 at the 2010 census. The village is located within the Town of Black Creek.

History

The village of Black Creek was settled by American Civil War veteran, Thomas J. Burdick and his son, Abraham L. Burdick, in 1862. The community had been known as Middleburg, due to its geographical proximity to the larger communities of Green Bay, Shawano, and Appleton, until its incorporation as a village in 1904. This name change was made to reflect the dark-colored creek at the northern edge of the community. Black Creek's first village president was Charles J. Hagen, founder of Chas Hagen Cheese Box Company, now known as Konz Wood Products.[8] In 1962 a centennial celebration[9] was held and a sesquicentennial celebration was held on June 2, 2012.[10]

In 1869, the country's first organized baseball team was formed in Black Creek by L.J. Cook. Thus, the village is known as the birthplace of Wisconsin baseball.[1] At the time, the team played at the village's North Park. It was a part of the Dairyland League along with teams from the communities of Bonduel, Hofa Park, Landstad, Garso, Seymour, Oneida, Shiocton, Kaukauna, Bear Creek, Oconto Falls, Greenville, Ashwaubenon, and Little Chute.[11] Black Creek's major rivalries were with the Navarino Rangers and the Nichols Nitros. The Black Creek team disbanded in the mid-1990s. To commemorate the village's baseball history, a "North vs. South Grudge Match" softball game is played annually.[12]

St. Mary's Roman Catholic Parish c.1910

In 1875, Black Creek published its first newspaper, the Black Creek Journal, which was discontinued in 1880. The Black Creek Times Press was first issued in 1904 and discontinued in 1928.

Main Street looking north c. 1915

Black Creek established its first dairy factory, Black Creek Creamery, in 1901. Since the plant's beginning, numerous changes in ownership have occurred.[12]

The village library formed in 1901. The following year, 1902, a large fire destroyed much of Main Street, leading to the organization of the village fire department in 1904. In 1910 telephone service was made available to local residents, with electricity making its debut in 1911.[9]

The Black Creek area was formerly the nation's leader in sauerkraut production.[13] Thus, the village has supported multiple sauerkraut factories since the late 1880s.[12] One well-known brand was Frank Pure Food Company which purchased an existing kraut plant in Black Creek in 1956. The plant specialized in Frank's Quality Kraut on the village's west side for decades, but later ceased operations in the mid 1990s.[14]

Former Immanuel Lutheran church (1915-1969)

In an effort to promote tourism, the nickname "Crossroads to the Northwoods" was adopted in 2004.[15] Four years later, in 2008, the former Green Bay & Western Railroad corridor was converted into the multi-use Newton Blackmour State Trail.[16]

In the summer of 2010, Black Creek experienced two major flooding events. The first occurred on the morning of July 19 when 4 inches (100 mm) of rain fell[17][18] and the second on the night of August 20 when the community received another 6 inches (150 mm). Other smaller floods in the past flooded only the Canadian National Railway underpass.[19][20]

Main Street revitalization

Downtown Christmas lighting

In the summer of 2011, the "Open for Business" Campaign was begun by the village and area businesses in an effort to attract new businesses. Their goal is to revitalize the community and the downtown area. The campaign is encouraging structural face-lifts and the growth of new specialty shops to help attract tourists traveling through to the Northwoods.[38][39]

Capstone Project

Main Street business league signage

Towards the end of 2013, the Black Creek Business Association partnered with a UW-Madison student to conduct a community needs assessment.[40] A survey of residents showed that what most wanted was a sense of community, with an atmosphere of a small town and an emphasis on "ma and pa" shops. Residents expressed an interest in an increase in food choices, the addition of flower planters and trees, making village streets more biker friendly, more parking areas, and slowing traffic on Main Street. Additionally, a desire from residents to restore and preserve historic buildings is also present throughout the study.[41] It was suggested that the community utilize an empty lot adjacent to the state trail for a new community center that would host indoor and outdoor events. In addition to this, a new Veterans park with extended trail systems, and the addition of decorative lighting would be added to the downtown area. Together, with a UW-Extension consultant, the board devised an eight-step plan for recruiting new businesses.[42][43]

Black Creek Village Library & Community Center

Black Creek's first school was built in 1874 and condemned in 1900. A two-story school, built in 1900 along State Street, was used until 1954. Because of lack of space, the school system also rented the former community hall from 1937 to 1954. Black Creek's present school was constructed in 1954. In 1958 the one-room schoolhouses in the surrounding vicinity closed and their students transferred to the village school, doubling the enrollment. Kindergarten, art, music, and physical education were also added that year. The village school was consolidated into the Seymour Community School District in 1963.[9]

The Black Creek Village Public Library is a member of the Outagamie Waupaca Library System (OWLS).
