Wisconsin Sheep and Wool Festival
Be sure to attend the Wisconsin Sheep and Wool Festival in Jefferson on September 10-12. People of all ages can enjoy exceptionally smart Border Collies bossing herds of sheep, sheep shearing contests, and several vendor buildings with everything from yarn to spinning wheels to animal supplies. Sign up for classes – whether you knit, spin, or want to raise your own sheep or Border Collies – and enjoy the quilt show (wonder if that quilt batting is made of wool?). Spend a day – or all three – and you will find something to enjoy.
Katie was the Executive Director of the Lake Mills Main Street Program from 2011 to 2019 and was the Secretary for the Jefferson County Tourism Council. In 2019, she retired to explore a new fashion degree and travel throughout the world. Katie was also a writer and contributed a great deal of copy for our website and printed guide. She was a great asset to our organization and we'll miss her!
