STORM RECOVERY UPDATE: With the unprecedented amount of storm damage and power outages in the Town of Winfield and throughout Lake County, here are a few reminders and updates for our residents and neighbors.

TREE BRANCH PICK UP: Our Public Works crew has been out dealing with storm clean up and branch pick up as best as they can since yesterday. They are starting in the worst hit areas first and will eventually get to all areas around town. There is no need to call or sign up for branch pick up during this time. PLEASE BE PATIENT!

WINFIELD BUSINESSES: Most of the Town of Winfield still has power, so many of our businesses are open, however they are doing their best to keep up with unusually high demand. PLEASE BE PATIENT! There is a business directory on our website if you want to check with individual places to see if they are open BEFORE heading to them https://www.winfield.in.gov/businesses

We will post any other updates on our page and website www.winfield.in.gov

Our mission was successful and another Movie in the Park is in the books! Thank you to all those who attended A MINECRAFT MOVIE last night at Randolph Street Park, Winfield, IN, and especially Councilman Jon Derwinski for Sponsoring the movie and bringing LOTS of free cotton candy and popsicles!
Before the start of the show, kids were able to enjoy free runs through the obstacle course, a photo op with Minecraft props, free back-to-school pencil pouches and building with magnetic blocks. They could also purchase toys from C&O Glow. Our food trucks were also awesome last night with Snowie NWI and Up in Smokers!
This concludes our summer Movies in the Park for 2026, but the fun continues with a few more events coming up this year. Check them out at winfield.in.gov/events
