As we wrap up another busy week in Menomonie, I wanted to share a few things I’m looking forward to around our community.

First, I hope you’ll join us for the Grand Reopening of Wakanda Park on Friday, June 19. Thanks to the support of community partners, the park now features resurfaced courts, upgraded basketball amenities, and improved batting cages that will serve residents and visitors for years to come.

Just around the corner, Murals in Menomonie officially begins June 25. Over five days, artists from around the world will transform walls throughout downtown into vibrant works of public art that celebrate our community’s stories, history, and character. It’s shaping up to be a truly memorable event for Menomonie.

For renters within the Neighborhood Stabilization and Enhancement District (NSED), this is a reminder that rental inspections begin July 1. Information letters and FAQs were mailed recently, and residents are encouraged to schedule inspections in advance. More information is available on the City website at www.menomonie-wi.gov/NSED.

Lastly, be sure to check out the Menomonie Public Library’s calendar. Between Yoga on the Lawn, Music over Menomin, summer reading programs, and special events, there are plenty of opportunities to learn, connect, and have fun all season long.

Whether you’re exploring a new mural, enjoying the new courts at Wakanda Park, attending a community event, or checking out a good book, I hope you find time to enjoy everything Menomonie has to offer this summer!
