From the meeting

At its August 12, 2026 meeting, the commission advanced a $1,772,100 rehabilitation of the Baggage Horse Barn at Circus World in Baraboo. The project repairs structural and exterior deterioration to preserve a National Historic Landmark resource. The Wisconsin Historical Society said it had received a Save America's Treasures grant from the National Park Service Historic Preservation Fund, which is partial funding for the work.

Bid opening is set for December 2026, so the grant-funded project is moving toward procurement.
