Sheboygan, WI – March 2, 2026 – Light snow updates, a police-community skate recap, and a record-setting Habitat gala fundraising push this week.
Top local headlines
1) Snow forecast shifts: most accumulation expected south of Sheboygan
A late-winter system that had been pegged for a heavier hit in the area looked less intense in updated forecasts over the weekend. The latest outlook pointed to a later start time and lighter totals for much of Sheboygan, with the steadiest snow focusing farther south and west. Travel could still turn slick during the evening window, but the overall picture improved compared with earlier projections.
2) Skate with a Cop draws families to the ice
A new community event pairing kids and officers on skates was chalked up as a strong first-year turnout. Organizers said many attendees were trying skating for the first time, and the focus stayed on low-pressure fun, conversation, and building familiarity outside of emergency situations. The department signaled interest in bringing it back again next year.
3) Habitat for Humanity Lakeside reports record results from Raise the Roof gala
A major fundraising night for local housing and repair work set new benchmarks for attendance and dollars raised. Organizers said proceeds will help support affordable housing efforts and home repairs across Sheboygan County, with next year’s event already scheduled. For residents watching the cost-of-living squeeze, it was a notable vote of support for housing stability close to home.
