From the Sutherland AD: Kayla, I wanted to pass this along to you to share with your fans. I know there will be some littles who may miss out on trick or treating because of the game so if parents would like to bring the little guys/girls to trick or treat in Sutherland, we would love to have them. If they would like to bring their vehicles and open their trunks and hand out treats as well, that would be great too. Our soccer field is just south of the football field on the visitor side of the field. We are still doing our Trunk or Treat 5:30-6:30. We are Moving it to the soccer field parking lot. We feel this will be safer for all the little people and easy if you want to be at the game also. Should be a beautiful night for both activities. Hope to see all the great costumes and trunks. Thanks to all! Also we will have hotdogs and chips for the kids in costume . Thanks

From the Rocktoberfest Committee: The Rocktoberfest Committee has thought long and hard about Saturday’s event. We want to thank all the businesses and community members who have invested in this amazing event. Due to forecasted high winds, lower than expected volunteer turnout due to scheduling conflicts, and overall safety of our patrons, we have made the impossible decision to CANCEL Rocktoberfest for 2019. Anyone who has purchased wristbands already, please message us and we will refund your money. Include location purchased and payment type. All who have donated for sponsorships will be contacted by the committee in the near future. We are heartbroken by the decision but feel it is in the best interest of our community. Thank you for all the support. The FFA Haunted Escape room is cancelled as well. The Rock County Hospital Vendor Fair downtown is still on as scheduled.
