NOW Post Prom Event
Our Brookwood 2025 Post Prom was a great success! We had a total of 64 students join us at the Jump Start Adventure Park in Onalaska, Wisconsin. We had four chaperones willing to jump around with the kids and keep an eye on them:)
Also, we hired Jason Gerke, a fantastic caricature artist, to draw mementos of the students to take home with them. A huge shout-out to Captain Ryan Lee for running the drug and alcohol goggles obstacle course and for going above and beyond by helping us with set-up and tear-down.
We served Toppers pizza, meat and cheese tray, various fruit, Dunkin Donuts, scotcheroos, and a variety of drinks. At the end of the night, each student went home with a door prize. The students all expressed their appreciation and we received several thank-yous.
Your very generous donation was used toward the rental of the Jump Park. Without your support, events like this wouldn't be possible. We so appreciate your involvement and all that you do to keep our community and our kids safe!
Thanks,

Fall Drug Take Back Day
Eryn collaborated with community partners to host Fall Drug Take Back Day on Saturday, 10/26 at Mayo Clinic in Sparta. Community members were very appreciative of the opportunity to safely dispose of medications and household sharps (for the first time at an event)!
Substance Use Prevention Day- October 10, 2024.
Sophomore students from Brookwood learned about and experienced the effects(simulated) of substance use impairments, distracted/impaired driving, stress management, vaping and how to quit, healthy eating, and the lived experience of substance use survivors. This program was sponsored by the MCSCC with financial support from Mayo Clinic and Monroe County Human Services. We would like to thank the presenters from law enforcement, Fort McCoy, UW Extension, Agents for Change, Next Steps for Change and Monroe County Health Department as well as the many volunteers who made this program possible.
