The Sharpenberg Home at the Village Red Brush
- Found east of Fort Wayne by Roger & Sue Barton in 2002.
- Donated by BTDK by Ken & Carolyn Koeing.
- Disassembled & moved July 27 & 28, 2002.
- Permission given to locate the home on the Kosciusko Community Fairgrounds.
- 35,000 pounds of logs were transported by G&G Hauling & Excavating to the fairgrounds.
- G&G Hauling and City of Warsaw Street Department unloaded & stacked the logs to await reconstruction of the Scharpenberg Home at its new location.
This is the start of our Red Brush Village
Village of Red Brush
In 2006, Brian Gambill and Nick Stiles of Boy Scout Troop #730 of Warsaw completed their Eagle Project by designing and building a handicap ramp, front steps, and brick walkway to the log house.
Our thanks to the following for their support: Custer Sand and Gravel, Lowe's, Warsaw Masonry, Carter Lumber, Elkhart Sand and Gravel, Builder's Mart, Warsaw Public Works Dept and the many hours by parents and members of Troop #730.
Future Hopes & Dreams
- Summer Kitchen
- School/Church

- Three Additional Cabins

Not necessarily in that order, but as funds and buildings become available.
