NEW GLARUS — In early October, the 2.2 acres of green space adjacent to Candy Cane Park was listed for sale by Shepherd of the Hills Church. This green space has served as an extension of Candy Cane Park for well over 50 years and is widely utilized by children and families in the community throughout the year.
