Planning is underway for the 17th annual Back to School Bash, coordinated by the Waushara County Department of Human Services. The Back to School Bash provides backpacks and school supplies for Waushara County children in need.
Paying school registration fees and purchasing required school supplies can be a financial hardship for many families. The start of the school year can be especially stressful for parents and students if they return to school without the expected school supplies and know their parents can’t afford them. The Back to School Bash depends on support of local business, civic groups and community members to ensure community children have the tools they need to learn. Last year, more than 300 children received backpacks of school supplies.
The committee is currently seeking donations of school supplies and backpacks. Donation totes have been placed throughout Waushara County. In Wautoma, totes are located at: St. Joseph’s Catholic Church, Shopko, Hometown Bank, US Bank, Huntington Bank, BMO Bank, Waushara County Courthouse and the Wautoma Public Library. In Wild Rose, totes are available at the Farmers State Bank, Centex Coop, United Methodist Church, United Presbyterian Church and the Patterson Memorial Library. In Plainfield/Hancock/Coloma communities, totes are available at the Royal Supermarket, Portage County Bank, the Hancock Bank and the Coloma Library. In Redgranite, totes are available at the First Congregational Church, Hometown Bank, BR Diner and the Curve-In Café.
Monetary donations can also be made payable to Waushara County DHS-Back to School Bash and mailed to P.O. Box 1230 Wautoma, WI 54982.
The Back to School Bash will be held Saturday, August 11th in the basement demonstration room of the Waushara County Courthouse. School supplies will be distributed from 8-11am on a first-come first-serve basis. To offset program costs, $2.00 per backpack fee will be collected. Proof of Waushara County residency is required.
To learn more about Waushara County’s Back to School Bash or make a donation, contact Angie Konieczki at 920-787-6550 angie.konieczki@co.waushara.wi.us or Jan Novak at 920-787-6600 jan.novak@co.waushara.wi.us

June 1st through August 31st. The concerts run from 7:00 to 10:00 pm and take place at The Village Green located at the corner of Watson and Seward Street in downtown Ripon.
For the 26th consecutive summer, the streets of downtown Ripon will be filled with the sound of music when the Ripon Summer Concert Series returns. This year’s series includes a greater variety of music than ever before. Organized by Ripon Main Street, Inc., the free outdoor concer series will begin on Thursday, May 31st with performances by the RMS and RHS Jazz Bands. The entertainment continues on Friday, June 1st with Wisconsin’s premier 80s rock cover band Cherry Pie.
The series features a diverse group of entertainers encompassing a wide range of musical styles. Several community favorites are returning to the lineup including Cherry Pie, Road Trip, Star Six Nine and Vic Ferrari. New groups including FBI & the Untouchable Horns, Incendio and Keith Anderson. We believe you will find the mixture of new bands and old favorites very appealing.
The series typically takes place on Friday evenings, June through August, but occasionally bonus concerts are added or events rescheduled due to weather issues. Participants are encouraged to bring lawn chairs or blankets to sit on. NO CARRY-INs are allowed in the park because beverage sales help cover entertainment expenses. Free music isn’t really free.
A special Thank You goes out to the local businesses that sponsor the music series. Let them know you appreciate the financial commitment they have made to our community. We are grateful to have their support, because there would not be a concert series without their financial assistance.

ThedaCare Stop The Bleed Class
The Stop the Bleed initiative is designed to train non-medical citizens the ability to recognize life threatening bleed and then provide helpful interventions. The vision is that this training be as common as CPR and that people will readily step in to provide aid when safe and appropriate.

www.bleedingcontrol.org
This course is not about civilians or non-medical personnel taking the place of EMS. Rather, it is an emphasis on quick thinking/emergent interventions that can be safely done while awaiting the EMS team that has been activated by 911. We teach to first check for scene safety, then ABC (Alert (911), Bleeding (identify where and if it’s life threatening) and Compress (apply pressure or a tourniquet). Many preventable deaths from bleeding can be addressed if civilians take action. Similar to the work on CPR in years past – it’s now a highly recognized intervention performed every day by non-medical personnel.
