Friends of the Campus: The Baraboo Sauk County Campus Foundation

08/14/2026

Our latest blog summarizes what the County Redevelopment Report proposes, what is and is not committed, what happens next, and what it means for the future of educational uses on the campus.

As the report explains, educational facilities, nonprofit organizations, workforce training, and community programming remain part of the vision, but these are not committed projects. Their future presence depends upon organizations stepping forward with the financial resources and long-term commitment to make them happen.

Read the full summary on our website.https://www.friendsofthecampus.org/post/looking-ahead-understanding-the-redevelopment-plan-for-boo-u

As the future of the physical campus continues to change, our commitment to education in Sauk County remains unchanged. We will steward our assets in accordance with that commitment.
