Red Cross Chapter of Cuba City

Did you know that Cuba City once had its own Red Cross chapter? In honor of Red Cross Month, this image captures a parade float for the Cuba City chapter of the Red Cross, circa 1951.

Image from the "Remember When" DVD put together by Beanie Loeffelholz and the City of Presidents.

Cuba City's Red Cross branch formed in 1917, when members prepared medical supplies and clothing for American soldiers during World War I. The chapter existed until at least the early 1950s.
