Building the WAY

Our Community is Designed with the Future in Mind......

Building the WAY is a group of youth and adults from our community with a focus on improving lifestyles and opportunities for the youth of our area.

We hope youth and adults from our community will support this effort. Building the WAY has partnered with the Village of Winneconne and the Winneconne school district to meet the needs of the youth, and let them have a sense of ownership, commitment, and value to their community.
