Chippewa Falls "Bounce Back" Sweepstakes 6/30/2020 - 8/30/2020

Mon, 22 Jun 2020 13:43:48 GMT

Want to win prizes by shopping small downtown?

Here's how:

1. Shop at any downtown business in Chippewa Falls (including retail, restaurants, gas, services, etc.) and keep all of your receipts.

2. Staple all of your receipts (or photocopies) to an entry form. (Pick up an entry form in downtown businesses or click here to download a PDF.)

3. Mail or bring in your form and attached receipt(s) to us at:

Chippewa Falls Main Street

514 N. Bridge St.

Chippewa Falls, WI 54729

You will receive (1) entry for every $10 spent in the downtown. Receipts need to be dated from June 30 - August 30, 2020. Entries must be received by September 3, 2020.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

Do I need to submit a separate entry form every time I spend $10?

No, you may save all of your receipts and submit them together with one form. We will do the math and give you one entry for every $10 spent downtown.

I submitted my receipts, but now I spent another $10. Can I enter again?

Yes! Simply attach your new receipts to a new entry form. However, if you submit multiple entry forms, the math will be done only for the receipts attached to that specific entry form. For example, if you spend $27 and submit your entry form and receipts on November 10, you will receive (2) entries. If you spend an additional $13 and submit this receipt and entry form on December 1, you will receive (1) entry, even though you have spent $40 total. To avoid this problem, we encourage you to submit all of your receipts with one entry form!

Do receipts for gift cards/certificates count?

Yes! If ordered online, print off the online (or email) receipt to attach to your entry form.

Script & Songs by Jerry Way Projected Visuals by Carol Way

Thu, Aug 6, 2020, 7:30 pm
Fri, Aug 7, 2020, 7:30 pm

Is there something in the beauty, power and danger of the Chippewa River that inspires creative expression? Does life in the north woods nurture artistic activity? Are there folks living in the Chippewa Valley who love the arts? The answer to all three questions is a resounding YES!

THE SWAMPERS: “From the Heart” celebrates community arts – music, creative writing, the visual arts, theater and dance. Kicking off the Chippewa Falls Pure Water Days celebration, the musical lumberjack aggregation performs stories and songs by Jerry Way with projected photographs by Carol Way. The entertaining and informative odyssey features the vocal & instrumental “swampgrass” harmonies and storytelling abilities of Amanda Schafer, Judy Brist, Kathy Danielson, Tim Danielson, Rob Kuchta and Jerry Way. Join your friends and neighbors for this very special multi-media performance at the beautiful and historic building. Audience members of all ages will exit with smiles, humming new favorite tunes, and treasuring the pure joy of an evening well-spent with the Swampers.

Chippewa Valley Century Ride 8/9/2020 7:00 AM - 8/9/2020

Fri, 24 Jan 2020 19:58:44 GMT

Due to the COVID-19 Pandemic and Restrictions on Events, the CVCR Committee has decided to postpone the 2020 Ride until August 9th. We are still working on all the details. That weekend is part of Chippewa Falls' Pure Water Days, so there will be fun events for everyone.

We are committed to providing a safe ride for the riders and the 100 volunteers working the ride. We expect details to change as we get closer to the ride date and know what the experts recommend for large group events and social distancing.

If you have already registered for the 2020 ride, your registration will be transfered to the new date.

We will offer refunds up to and including the day of the ride as we do not want anyone to attend if they do not feel well or are concerned about their health. There will be an online procedure to request a refund which will be launched in the next few weeks.

Some of the changes we expect:
* Saturday night wrist band and packet pick up will not include a party / get together.
* There will be NO onsite registration. All registration must be done online or by mail before the ride.

Dinner in the Orchard

....a Heyde Center for the Arts culinary collaboration with Bushel and a Peck

Experience a delicious farm-fresh dinner and a stunning view overlooking rows of apple trees in the rolling hills of Chippewa County with orchard owners Lisa and Wayne Geist. Bushel and a Peck orchard is situated on a scenic ridge separating the Chippewa River Valley and the Eau Claire River Valley. The orchard was started over a century ago and now includes over 20,000 trees producing over 30 varieties of apples. The orchard adheres to ecology-based growing practices that promote soil and tree health, nurture pollinators, and protect biodiversity. In addition, the orchard has currant plantings, raspberries and a pumpkin patch.

The evening begins at 6:00 p.m. with drinks and a walking or a wagon ride tour of the farm. Wayne and Lisa will be on hand to talk about the orchard and offer some behind the scene insights about a working apple orchard. At 7:00 p.m., guests will gather around the farm table for a dinner of charcoal chicken hot off the grill, fresh grilled corn on the cob, Waldorf salad, buttery baby red potatoes and homemade cornbread with honey butter. After dinner, guests will move to the fire pit for live music and a bonfire under a ceiling of stars not visible in the city.

Casual attire and sturdy walking shoes recommended, but provisions will be available for people with mobility limitations.

Rain date: Wednesday, August 12 at 6:00 p.m.

Cost is $45/person, which includes:

· dinner and non-alcoholic beverages such as water, coffee/tea, and light sodas.

· camaraderie

· live music around a cozy bonfire

· all in a beautiful and serene orchard setting.

Additional beverages (beer and wine) can be purchased at the orchard.

Sun, Sep 20, 20202:00 pm

Written by Joe DiPietro. Nick Cristano may be living the life of a modern young professional in New York City, but his loving grandparents never let him forget where he belongs: in New Jersey, in the bosom of his tenacious, tender-hearted, loud, loving, and well-fed Italian-American grandparents, who live two doors down from each other in Hoboken, and who lavish all of their affection on their last unmarried grandchild. Faithfully, Nick goes “over the river” to Grandma’s house every week for Sunday dinner. When he is offered an important promotion in Seattle, Washington, Nick threatens to break this routine by a distance of some 2,800 miles! Frank, Aida, Emma, and Nunzio are heartbroken at the prospect of their beloved grandson raising a family all the way across the country -- or worse, not raising a family at all! Besides the usual tactics of emotional blackmail, in order to keep him safe at home, these wily elders cook up a matchmaking scheme, inviting lovely nurse Caitlin O’Hare over for Sunday dinner. Will the prospect of true love keep Nick from moving across the country? Over the River and Through the Woods is a warm-hearted, boisterously funny, and touching story about inter-generational relationships, deep familial love, and the inevitable little heartbreaks that occur as time passes and children grow. Directed by Michele Langhough.

Do you wish you knew exactly what grant reviewers were looking for? Although the grant application process varies, there are some important common elements which can give you an edge. This full-day, hands-on workshop will provide you with insights into persuasive and effective grant writing through a mock-interview process. This program is a great resource for all grant writers, whether you are writing your first grant or have years of experience. In order to be best prepared for this workshop, we recommend you take Beginning Grant Writing the day before so you learn current best practices. Plus, by taking both workshops you will earn the Professional Grant Writing Certificate.
