The Hortonville Public Library is right across the street from the high school which is the emergency shelter. Open ‘til 6 tonight (Friday) and open 9-1 Saturday!

Update: The Red Cross Shelter at HHS will close tomorrow morning at 7 a.m. The Red Cross has informed us that the need has declined and HHS is no longer necessary. The high school will, therefore, be open and run as scheduled on Monday, April 20.

Red Cross representatives also asked us to pass along a thank you to our community for their support. Thank you, Polar Bears, for all of the help and support you provided our neighbors over the last several days.

4/17/26: Hortonville High School will be closing today at 1:15 p.m. We have been working with our neighbors the last several days to assist people with the current flooding. Hortonville High School will be used as a Red Cross Shelter for those in need.
