Oconto Falls’ biggest weekend of the year is right around the corner.

The Oconto Falls Memorial Day Celebration kicks off May 22 and runs through May 25. The weekend includes a Memorial Day service, the 11th annual Dash O.F. Color, carnival, car show, fireworks, softball tournament, food stands and live music.

Many in Wittenberg turn to Britt’s Candy and Ice Cream Shop to satisfy their sweet tooth fix. Beginning in June, there will be a new mural to satisfy customers’ visual senses as well.

Election season has begun for the Wisconsin Assembly, and Rep. Elijah Behnke kicked off his mission for a fourth term in office with a campaign fundraiser May 14 at Scolly’s Hometown Pub in Pulaski.

Attorneys representing the Oconto Falls School District have filed a motion to dismiss a civil rights lawsuit against the district in which several plaintiffs accused the district of systematic sexual misconduct toward students.

Earlier this year, several former students filed a lawsuit alleging that for more than 20 years, the district failed to protect students from a predatory environment.
