Past Events
Fright Factory
The Fright Factory will be open every Friday and Saturday evening from October 6 -28. Tickets will be available at the door.
The Nicolet Players, in partnership with the Rhinelander Masons, are once again leaving the safe confines of the Nicolet Theatre to bring back the Fright Factory this Fall! Make your way through the dimly lit passageways and creepy spaces of the Historic Masonic Lodge in downtown Rhinelander filled with delightfully frightening ghosts, ghouls, and goblins that will get you in the spirit of the Halloween season!
Issues in Cardiology - Cancelled
This event has been cancelled.
LIR’s favorite cardiovascular internist, Dr. Joel Furda, will host an informal discussion of some of the more common cardiovascular issues we face as we age, including high blood pressure, congestive heart failure, and coronary artery disease. Dr. Furda will briefly introduce each entity, then take audience questions about that topic. There will be no need for the doctor to hurry on to the next patient as sometimes happens during an office visit, so this will be an excellent opportunity to get a detailed overview of the effects of these conditions on the body, the possible treatments, and maybe most important of all, the best preventive measures we can all take for our health. Medical Assistant students will also be available to do blood pressure checks.

TICKBORNE ILLNESSES PRESENTATION BY JEFF WAITE
Free Admission
There is much yet to be learned about ticks and the diseases they can transmit to people. What is known is that in the United States nearly 500,000 people are infected each year, and around 20% of those infected develop chronic symptoms that become life altering, or in some cases life ending. Since neither ticks nor we are planning on departing anytime soon, it’s imperative to know what needs to be done to coexist. This presentation focuses on conveying the knowledge needed to remain healthy in the epicenter of Midwestern tick populations.

Don’t miss the annual Nicolet Cosmetology Student Hair Show, where students have an opportunity to show off their creativity and skills in a fun and engaging setting.
