'''''History''''':

Many years ago, a dhanagar was arrived to a small hill with sheep and goats in search of food. He liked this place and decided to stay on the hill. Then he blessed with 4 sons. Every son then extended their family and now we are few thousands in number. We have 4 "Wada's" which are extended families of 4 sons. Kolpe is last name of all successors and Kolpewadi is name of the village. Shashikant Kolpe is one of the successors.
