The Highground, Neillsville / 6pm
The Highground, the Willard Well and several supporters, including musician Victoria Shoemaker (of “Virginia Steel” – virginiasteelmusic.com), are offering military Veterans the opportunity to learn how to play acoustic guitar. The program is designed to help them gain skills to bring the joy that accompanies creativity to their lives and enjoy the camaraderie of fellow Veterans.The Vets & Guitars program will consist of 10 sessions of instruction and “jamming” with fellow Veterans and musicians. Each session will run 1-2 hours every Thursday evening through December 1 (the lesson during the week of Thanksgiving is TBD).
All Veterans are invited to join the program and early registration is encouraged. In addition to the overall fun of learning to play guitar, the physical, mental and spiritual activity of playing a guitar or other instrument has been proven to bring a sense of peace, accomplishment and “centering” to people under stress and to those living with post-traumatic stress.
Veterans will be supplied with an acoustic guitar and all accessories needed to play for free. Sponsors and donations are needed to support this unique healing program because it is being offered to Veterans at no charge. The current “Vets & Guitars” sponsors are the Willard Well, Morgan Music, Ken McEwen, Lawrence Kizewski, Julie Diesing and The Highground.
Businesses and individuals can sponsor a Veteran for a donation of $125. The program is also accepting donations of new or gently used acoustic guitars and gig bags/cases.
Veterans can register for the Vets & Guitars program now by sending an email to Theresa at museum@thehighground.us or by calling 715-743-4224.
The Highground is located at W7031 Ridge Rd, Neillsville WI 54456.

On this morning, participants will be raking leaves for elderly and disabled Marshfield residents.Make A Difference Day is a great event to help the community we call home with family, friends, church groups and/or co-workers. You can make all the difference with a little bit of time, a little bit of muscle and a lot of heart for Marshfield residents who are physically unable to rake their lawns themselves. Volunteers interested in helping on this day can register at volunteermarshfield.org, by sending an email to info@marshfieldareaunitedway.org or by calling 715-507-5005.
Volunteers are asked to register in advance so United Way can estimate how many lawns can be raked during the event. United Way asks that volunteers bring their own rakes and have their own transportation. A light snack and water will be provided.
Residents in need of assistance with their lawns should call United Way prior to October 14th to see if they qualify for assistance. Please note anyone receiving help on this day must be home on the morning of October 22. Additionally, residents are responsible for providing enough paper leaf bags to bag all the leaves raked by the volunteers.
Please contact Marshfield Area United Way at 715-507-5005 with any questions.

The Highground, the Willard Well and several supporters, including musician Victoria Shoemaker (of “Virginia Steel” – virginiasteelmusic.com), are offering military Veterans the opportunity to learn how to play acoustic guitar. The program is designed to help them gain skills to bring the joy that accompanies creativity to their lives and enjoy the camaraderie of fellow Veterans.The Vets & Guitars program will consist of 10 sessions of instruction and “jamming” with fellow Veterans and musicians. Each session will run 1-2 hours every Thursday evening through December 1 (the lesson during the week of Thanksgiving is TBD).
All Veterans are invited to join the program and early registration is encouraged. In addition to the overall fun of learning to play guitar, the physical, mental and spiritual activity of playing a guitar or other instrument has been proven to bring a sense of peace, accomplishment and “centering” to people under stress and to those living with post-traumatic stress.
