Krueger-Haskell Golf Course 100th Anniversary Celebration
The course traces its first official season to 1927, making 2026 the 100th season of play with the official centennial in 2027. The committee was scheduled to plan a commemorative celebration, with no city funds allocated so far.
Friends of the Parks volunteer group
The city has been exploring how to launch a Friends of the Parks volunteer group, and a presentation on the Friends of Rock County Parks was scheduled to show how such organizations work. More volunteer support could mean better-maintained parks without added city staffing.
Establishing a Friends of the Park group
The commission was scheduled to continue discussing whether to form a Friends of the Park nonprofit to support park improvements, fundraising and community engagement. Beloit currently has only one such group, the Friends of the Riverfront.
Disc golf course at Big Hill Park
Ryan Triplett was scheduled to give a formal presentation on a disc golf course at Big Hill Park. If the commission moves it forward, Beloit could gain a new free recreational amenity, though location and maintenance questions would need answers.
