~Jackson County~

black river falls

 

Jackson County is a large, mostly rural county located in West-Central Wisconsin with a population of approximately 18,000 people. It contains large regions of forested land, which make it a popular tourist area for outdoor recreation. Black River State Forest is very popular for outdoor recreation such as hunting, snowmobiling, ATVing, canoeing, horse riding, bicycling and cross country skiing. The western half of the County is part of the driftless (non-glaciated) region of Wisconsin. This area is mostly rolling hills and valleys (known locally as coulees) and is scattered with dairy farms.

I am the coolest 22 year old I know, and I just moved to Black River Falls, WI. Born and raised in Southern California, I started community organizing and working for causes that I felt passionate about.  Now as a fellow Wisconsinite I am eager to get to know and become part of my new community.  I will be working with UW-Extension and Together for Jackson County Kids to develop programs that help keep youth away from drugs and alcohol.
