Meet some of the Graeser Park’s supporters.

He is the author of the Arcadia Publications, “Images of America Robbinsdale” and “Images of America Breezy Point”. Pete serves on the historical society’s board and is the webmaster for the organization. He has had a hand in many of the society’s events and activities.

If you came out for the Annual Robbinsdale Whiz Bang Parade you may have noticed him roller blading  in circles behind the historical society truck dressed as a Cootie Bug.

Pete grew up in Robbinsdale and has enough fond memories of Graeser Park to fill a beehive. He is a tireless researcher and dreams of the day when the park and its historic structures are turned over to the city to be preserved for future generations.

She was involved with research of various historic highways, and was thrilled to realize that Graeser Park’s boundary of West Broadway is the original route of the Jefferson Highway.

Along with her husband Mark Mueske, she was a member of the reorganized Jefferson Highway Association. Carol received a Minnesota History Society fellowship to research the highway’s route in Minnesota.

She wrote National Register of Historic Places nominations for New Deal era parks in Nebraska and Iowa, and was interested in exploring the possibility of a similar designation for Graeser Park.
