Green County Well Water Monitoring Program's Year Two Results

Groundwater is the principal water supply for Green County municipalities, industries, and rural residents. While municipal water supplies are regularly monitored and required to meet drinking water standards, private well owners must make decisions regarding when and what to test for and what to do if there is a problem. In an effort to understand changes to well water quality over time and help to focus public health outreach efforts to private well owners, Green County undertook steps to initiate a 5-year project to monitor well water quality.

New Glarus Friends Book Sale

After a one year hiatus, the Friends of the New Glarus Library are back with our annual Labor Day weekend book sale. We have accumulated a huge selection of books over two years.
To accommodate safe guidelines, the sale will limit the number of people allowed into the New Glarus Village Hall Community room at any one time, but we will have the sale over two days, September 4th and 5th, to allow anyone who wants to browse and select books without feeling crowded. It goes without saying – but we’ll say it – anyone is free to come back as many times as they wish.
