WAUPUN — Waupun Volksfest 2022 was held at the Waupun Community Center last Saturday. With a pancake breakfast, all-day concessions, on tap beer, countless treats, and live music including the WHS band, this year’s Volksfest was attended by hundreds of residents and tourists who wanted to celebrate the area’s German heritage.

This year’s Volksfest was organized by the Waupun Hockey Association, lead by Cory and Bambi Buchholz. Proceeds from Volksfest concessions will go towards replacing the Community Center ice rink floor which was originally built in the late 1970s.

Cory Buchholz estimated that Volksfest had over 750 attendees, and that the concessions went through ten and a half barrels of the on-tap beers throughout the event.
