Worst Christmas present ever for Eagle Point: the fire that burned down the historic Butte Creek Mill in 2015. The old mill is listed as the last water-powered grist mill west of the Mississippi river.
And it will soon begin to rise again, thanks to support from the community. Some notable figures, including actors Patrick Duffy and Jim Belushi, have joined the effort to raise money for the mill's rebuilding.
And the fundraising has been brisk. Campaign board chair (and former Jackson County commissioner) Sue Kupillas visits with details.
