United Way "Stuff the Bus," library aquatic night and other local events this week in Wisconsin Rapids

Sunup Wisconsin used its community segment to highlight upcoming programs across Wisconsin Rapids and neighboring towns. The United Way of Southwood County's "Stuff the Bus" drive is accepting registrations through Aug. 1 with drop-off at 351 Oak Street; hosts encouraged donations and volunteer support.

Aaliyah noted a McMillan Library-sponsored family aquatic center takeover with "free admission to the aquatic center from 6:00 to 8:00 p.m." on July 22, and promoted the Southwood County Historical Museum's traveling "Immigration and American Story" exhibit running through Aug. 24. Hosts also listed the Port Edwards Lions Club picnic at Alexander Park on July 21, weekday public skates at the Southwood County Rec Center, monthly Artists Coffee at Olio Arts and Music Center, and the ongoing downtown farmers market.

Listeners were urged to check organizers' web pages and social-media channels for registration and sponsor details. These items were presented as community announcements; no formal municipal actions were reported in this segment.
