Today we're celebrating National Train Your Brain Day!

Your brain loves to learn—and there’s no age limit on trying something new!

Today is a great day to challenge your mind while connecting with others. Try a puzzle with a friend, learn a few words in a new language, explore a new topic, play a favorite game, or share something you know with someone else.

• Work on a puzzle
• Learn something new
• Play a game with others
• Practice a new language
• Join a class or discussion group

Learning together can be just as rewarding as learning something new. Choose an activity that works for you and enjoy the process!

What is something new you’d like to learn?

Effective January 1, 2027, the City of Medford will take over the well water testing program from the Taylor County Health Department.

Beginning November 1, 2026, testing bottles can be purchased directly from Medford City Hall during their business hours at 639 S. Second Street Medford, WI 54451. Taylor County Health Department will sell testing bottles through December 29, 2026. Throughout the transition, testing will continue to be completed at the City of Medford Wastewater Treatment Plant located at 603. S Whelen Avenue Medford, WI 54451.

Businesses who hold a license through Taylor County Health Department (food, lodging, recreational camps, etc.) will still need to complete a yearly test for their licensing but will now be required to send results to the Health Department.

💙 Taylor County Human Services encourages our community to attend tonight’s sextortion education presentation at 6:30 PM.

We are honored to have John DeMay, a father personally affected by this devastating crime, share his story and help bring awareness to the serious issue of sextortion.

Sextortion is a growing concern that can affect children, teens, and families. Education and awareness are essential to recognizing the warning signs, understanding the risks of online interactions, and knowing how to respond when something goes wrong.

As a community, we have a responsibility to work together to protect our children and support families. We encourage parents, caregivers, educators, and community members to attend this important event.

Please share this post and help us spread awareness. Together, we can make a difference. 💙
