The Village Board will also discuss a Geoffrey Farnsworth memorial and the JCC's request to amend its development agreement.
Here's a look at some of the events in our events calendar this week. If we're missing something, you can add it to the calendar.
An Evening of Wine & Chocolate: Escape the cold with a night of sweet treats and specials in the shops along Silver Spring Drive with "An Evening of Wine & Chocolate" Thursday night from 5 p.m. to 8 p.m. Meet business owners and take advantage of complimentary chair massages, demonstrations, sneak previews, special sales and – of course – wine and chocolate. The event is made possible through a partnership with the Wisconsin Breast Cancer Coalition. Visit the shopping district's website for more information.
The Village Board will meet at 7 p.m. Monday to discuss a proposal for Geoffrey Farnsworth's family to offer a donation of a memorial council ring in Buckley Park in honor of the late teacher and cross country coach.
