🎃 Witches, Ghouls & Local Businesses: We Need You! 👻

Preparations for our upcoming Halloween Event are in full swing, but to make this our spookiest and best celebration yet, we need a little extra community magic!

Whether you’re an individual looking to get involved or a local business wanting to show your community spirit, here’s how you can join the fun:

Volunteer: We need help with setup, game booths, crowd control, and cleanup. A few hours of your time makes a massive difference!
Become a Sponsor: Partner with us to help fund entertainment, decorations, and activities. It’s a great way to showcase your business to hundreds of local families!
Host a Scare Station: Set up a scare station to give attendees a fun fright!

Upcoming Member Events & Announcements

Black River Health and Jackson County Public Health are teaming up with Great Rivers United Way, health departments, healthcare systems, schools, and other community organizations for the Compass Now 2027 Community Health Assessment survey. This survey is done every three years to find out what the community needs and what health problems people are facing. Jackson County Public Health and Black River Health are asking the public, including you, to take the Compass Now survey to help plan community projects to create a healthier community.

Survey results are used to develop important programs, activities, and policies by local hospitals, health centers, and health departments. It is also used to apply for funding and grants, creating policies, and community development projects by community partners, and state and local leaders.
