New Administrative assistant! Brandi Cha began on Monday, September 14.
Brandi is the only administrative assistant at UW Extension and will be shared with all educators.
Hello, my name is Brandi! I was born and raised in Sheboygan, Wisconsin. I
come from a big family and have four older siblings, who have given me a total of nine nieces and nephews. I don’t have children of my own, but I consider my nieces and nephews my kids and love spending time with them.
I recently graduated from the University of Wisconsin-Green Bay in May 2026
with a Bachelors in Marketing. Before graduating, I worked in the banking industry for four years, where I gained valuable experience in customer service, communication, organization, and working with people from all different backgrounds.
Outside of work, I love to travel. Whenever I travel, my goal is to visit new places
and experience things I haven’t experienced before. I enjoy exploring different cities, learning about new cultures, and creating new memories.
If your club will not be meeting at your usual time/date, let the Extension Office know.

Open House & Enchanted Forest
Open House & Enchanted Forest
Enchanted Forest/4-H Open House is being held on Sunday, October 4th, 2025 from 1:00-3:00.
Please feel free to bring flyers to promote your club and new enrollment.
A great turnout last year (300 people) and this event has been heavily advertised. We are continuing working with local resources and we'd love if you would promote bringing non-perishable food donations for the Sheboygan County Food Pantry.
You will be asked to bring everything you need for this event including treats (if you choose). Power and tables, for example, will not be provided. Please also bring informational flyer for those who might be potential new members to your club.
Any questions, please email Barb Scholten at scholbas@gmail.com or Sarah Feider at sfeider@wisc.edu.
Thank you!

Team Building
Got Your Back
Tape a piece of paper to each person’s back. Give the team a theme of what they are going to write to each other (Ex: It can be what they bring to the team, their role for game day, why you are thankful for them, one word that describes them, etc.) Each person goes around the room and writes on everyone else’s papers, either signing their names or writing notes anonymously.
