Northwoods Police Department
Did you know that Northwoods has a rich history and that the place where you now reside might once have been an Indian campsite? The history of Northwoods is one to delight the hearts of any child (and many parents) that live here today. While we aren’t historians, we do know that our land was once a popular Indian camp ground—partially because of its geographical location and natural advantages of shade, shelter, drinking water, observation cliffs, etc. At one time seven (7) natural springs could be found bubbling out of the ground—hence the infamous “Baden Creek” that runs through our City today.
