Rock County Public Schools

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.
