Greene's Public Swimming Pool

Refresh yourself with a swim in our fine memorial pool, hours 1pm - 5pm and 7pm -9pm daily. This recreation center was made possible in 1965 through the generous donors, W. H. Buchholz (1872-1939) and wife Etta (1873-1963). Their deep sense of community responsibility, the welfare of our youth, our schools, our religious institutions and continuing progress of the community was consummated in this gift for the enjoyment of future generations. William Buchholz, together with Henry Dralle, founded the department store on the corner of Traer and Second Street. It remains in operation today as Dralle's Department Store, with third generation Dralles in charge.

Camping


Camping is available in Conservation Park near the swimming pool, along the west side of the Shell Rock River, Greene, Iowa and also at Camp Comfort, four miles south. Both are located on the Shell Rock River bank, and have electrical hookups, shelter houses, picnic tables and boat ramps. The Butler County Conservation Commission maintains both.







Many services offered in our new, modern library

Known throughout Iowa as one of the finest small town libraries in the state, the Greene Public Library houses over 17,000 books, cassettes, (both audio and video), magazines, art prints, and paperback books. Adult classes, arts and crafts displays, a public meeting room, a video camcorder, a FAX machine, and computers for public use are just a small portion of the many services offered at the Greene Public Library.
