On Sunday, July 24th, the Fever River String Band performed in Village Park. A number of people took advantage of the opportunity to sit in the shade and enjoy the music. Coming up on July 31st, the Mad City Jug Band will perform at 6:30 p.m. and everyone's favorite, the MAUI Ukulele Band, returns on Sunday, August 14th.
Bring a chair or a blanket and enjoy music with your friends and family. In case of rain, the concerts will be held at the New Glarus Home Chapel. These free concerts are the result of a grant from the New Glarus Community Foundation.

The Monticello Sports Boosters, as well as the Monticello School Board, have come together in starting a community fitness center. The School Board has funded the project for the facility and the Sports Boosters are heading the fundraising efforts to get the equipment for the new fitness center. At Monticello we believe in living and teaching a healthy lifestyle to children of all ages. <strong> In an effort to reach all members of the community, we are opening the new fitness center to the community for public use once it is all finished.</strong>
