Chocolate Walk Weekend, Police Scam Alert, and Village Updates
Community Snapshot
Menomonee Falls heads into the first weekend of February with a mix of community celebrations, public safety reminders, and local updates that touch daily life around the village.
Chocolate Walk Brings Foot Traffic Downtown
The annual Chocolate Walk is underway Friday and Saturday, drawing residents into local shops and restaurants. Participating businesses are offering chocolate-themed treats while encouraging visitors to explore the downtown district during one of the colder stretches of winter.
Police Issue Reminder About Home Improvement Scams
Village police are again urging residents to be cautious of door-to-door driveway paving and sealing offers. Officials say scammers often demand payment upfront and either perform poor-quality work or disappear entirely. Residents are encouraged to verify contractors and report suspicious activity.
Schools Celebrate Student Achievements
At Menomonee Falls High School, student athletes are making headlines. The varsity dance team is competing at the state championships this weekend, while the girls varsity bowling team has qualified for the state tournament for the third year in a row, highlighting a strong winter sports season.
Village Focused on Growth and Sustainability
Village officials continue work on long-term planning projects, including residential development and environmental initiatives. A local neighborhood remains part of a leaf-mulching study aimed at reducing yard waste costs and improving stormwater quality flowing toward Lake Michigan.
Looking Ahead
With more winter events on the calendar and election-related deadlines approaching later this month, village leaders encourage residents to stay connected through official channels and community announcements.
