Schools (most relevant to Town of Rhine families)
Plymouth School District posted upcoming schedule and activity reminders, including a no-school day on Friday, Feb. 20, plus a busy evening of events at Plymouth High School (boys basketball and a concert program). Families should double-check building calendars and activity times before heading in, especially with winter driving conditions.
Community events (nearby, open to Town of Rhine residents)
The Sheboygan County Chamber of Commerce has several late-February events posted, including membership and young-professional networking programming in Sheboygan. These are countywide opportunities for Town of Rhine residents who work, own businesses, or volunteer across Sheboygan County.
Road work and travel notes
No new, Rhine-specific road-closure notices surfaced this week. With temperatures staying below freezing (highs in the 20s and low 30s), watch for patchy ice on rural roads and shaded stretches, especially overnight and early morning.
Public safety
A garage fire in the Village of Waldo on Thursday (Feb. 19) drew a large multi-department response. Authorities reported no one was home at the time and no injuries were reported; the cause remained under investigation. While this incident was not in the Town of Rhine, it is a timely reminder for winter fire safety: keep space heaters clear, dispose of ashes properly, and ensure working smoke/CO alarms (including in attached garages and near sleeping areas).
