Reservations are now open for the Driftless District Dinner on April 16, 2025 at Rex's Innkeeper in Waunakee.

At the dinner, we will recognize the adult volunteers who make our programs succeed.  This will be our first dinner as a new District and you will find some new and some familiar awards below. Please consider nominating deserving adult volunteers, your Chartered Organization or a Community Organization for one of them. 

"This is a non-uniformed event."

Nominations are due February 23, 2025 and can be emailed to constance.fagre@gmail.com. Full details and requirements are on the nomination forms at the links below.
