Ready For Memorial Day Weekend?

Memorial Day Weekend is here, and that means parades, ceremonies, backyard cookouts, and a packed lineup of community events happening all across Waukesha County and beyond. Monday will be filled with local Memorial Day observances honoring those who served and sacrificed, while the rest of the weekend is shaping up to be one of the biggest weekends of the spring for getting out and enjoying the community with family and friends.

This weekends lineup includes the return of East Troy’s beloved Corn & Brat Roast, giant inflatable fun taking over the field at the Lake Country DockHounds stadium, and Falls Memorial Fest bringing live music, food trucks, a car show, vendors, and family activities to downtown Menomonee Falls all weekend long.

Whether you’re looking for something meaningful, fun, or just an excuse to get out of the house, there’s definitely no shortage of things happening around the area this weekend.

⚠️Also, a quick heads up, there will not be a Monday newsletter issue in observance of Memorial Day. Our next issue will be sent out on Thursday, May 28. Wishing everyone a fun, relaxing, and meaningful Memorial Day weekend as we remember and honor those who made the ultimate sacrifice for our country.
