Apple Dumpling Day Races – September 12

The Elroy Lions Club will be sponsoring their 20th Elroy Apple Dumpling Day Races on September 12, 2026.  We offer a marathon, a 1/2 marathon, a 5K, and also kids races.  The races take place at the Elroy City Park (Schultz Park).
 
The marathon and 1/2 marathon races are run on Juneau County’s Omaha Trail and feature running through an 875 foot tunnel.  Marathon runners start in Elroy and run through Hustler and towards Camp Douglas.  They turn around there and run back to Elroy.  The 1/2 marathon runners are bused to Hustler where they run from Hustler back to Elroy.  Our course is known for being straight, flat, shaded, scenic, and fast.  Last year we had 18 Boston Marathon qualifiers.  
 
The 5K is run on the 400 Trail and the Kids Races take place right at the park.
 
Last year’s races had 318 registrations from 20 different states.  This year looks to be about the same except with an increase in kids runners.  This year’s race’s theme is “Running for Abbey” and in memory of Abbey Schuster who passed away in January.  Abbey was a Lion member, a Royall teacher, a daughter, sister, wife, mother, and a friend to many and is dearly missed.
 
For more information or to register, please visit our website at www.appledumplingdayraces.com
 
100% of the proceeds go to the Elroy Lions Club and the profits are used to support our many local, state, national, and international needs.

The Aging and Disability Resource Center of Eagle Country – Juneau County Office is excited to invite your organization to participate in our 2nd Annual Juneau County Aging Expo on October 16th from 9-12pm at the Mauston High School!

Following the success of last year’s event, we’re looking forward to once again bringing older adults, caregivers, families, and community partners together for a day focused on education, resources, and connection. We value the important role your organization plays in supporting individuals throughout Juneau County and hope you will join us for another meaningful event.

This year’s Aging Expo has been redesigned to provide a more streamlined and engaging experience for both attendees and exhibitors. The morning will begin with a featured keynote presentation from 9-10 a.m, followed by the Community Resource Fair, allowing attendees dedicated time to connect with participating organizations. We are excited to welcome local keynote speaker Wendy Horbinski, who will present “Bye Bye Paper Piles,” sharing practical tips and strategies for getting organized and reducing paper clutter at home.

  • The featured keynote presentation will begin at 9:00 a.m. The Community Resource Fair will open to the public immediately following the keynote presentation at approximately 10:00 a.m. This schedule is designed to encourage attendees to enjoy the presentation before visiting vendor booths.

Enclosed you will find the Vendor Form as well as the Expo Flyer.

Juneau County Sheriff App Download


Sign Up for Code Red Alerts

A Code Red Mobile Alert is a mobile application that provides residents with location-based emergency alerts, public safety notifications, and other important community information from local government and public safety agencies, complementing the existing CodeRED emergency notification system. This free app, available for iPhone and Android devices, uses your phone’s GPS to send targeted alerts to you even when you are traveling away from home, ensuring you receive timely, geo-targeted safety messages.  

How it Works

  • Location-Based Alerts:The app sends alerts to your phone based on your current location, even when you are traveling outside your registered address. 
  • Multi-Channel Communication:In addition to the mobile app, the broader CodeRED system can also deliver notifications via voice calls, text messages, and email, ensuring widespread coverage. 
  • Targeted Delivery:Agencies can send alerts to specific areas, ensuring the right people receive relevant information for their location. 
  • Urgent Notifications:The system is designed for fast, reliable communication during emergencies, such as severe weather, lost children, or wildfires. 

What to Expect

Timely Information:You will receive updates and instructions on what to do to stay safe during emergencies. 

Variety of Information:Alerts can cover a range of topics, from public safety issues to non-emergency events like boil-water notices or traffic closures. 

Enhanced Awareness:By utilizing your phone’s location, the app ensures you get warnings relevant to where you are, not just where you live.
