Get Ready for Spooky Fun!

Chequamegon’s homecoming parade is set to start at 2:00p.m on Friday, October 2nd, 2026. We would love more community involvement in this event! If there is any interest in participating in the parade by creating a float, please contact our high school student council or our advisor, Mrs. Tank. If you do not have interest in particularly creating a float, but would instead like to sponsor a class float or a sports float (this could be by including business name on float, supply float supplies, monetary donate, etc) also please contact us at chsstudentcouncil@csdk12.net or Mrs. Tank stank@csdk12.net; 715-762-2474 extension 2260.

Have you been impacted by pulp and paper mill closures in Park Falls? Do you want to share your thoughts on how these closures have impacted your community? Leah Williams is currently a master’s student at the University of Wisconsin – Stevens Point (UWSP) in Forestry. Leah’s thesis focuses on community members’ response to pulp and paper mill closures in rural Wisconsin and their perceptions of the pulp industry. Leah aims to interview members of the Park Falls to gain insight into how current residents have responded to the change in social dynamics, perceptions, and understanding of the pulp industry. Interviews aim to target former mill workers, Chequamegon School District faculty, church clergy, social club and organization leaders, healthcare providers, and business owners. If you are interested in discussing these topics and contributing to this research project, please contact Leah at lewillia@uwsp.edu to schedule an interview. Your information would be a vital part of the thesis work and could help inform similar communities going through similar transitions.
