Extension Marathon County
We provide outreach education to the residents of Marathon County.
As a statewide engagement arm of UW-Madison, the Division of Extension embodies the Wisconsin Idea to extend university knowledge to every corner of the state. Our statewide network of educators and specialists with UW-Madison and on UW campuses across Wisconsin is responding every day to emerging and longstanding hurdles residents are overcoming to compete and prosper.
We are moving! We will be closed the week of March 17-21, 2025. We ask for your patience over the next several weeks as we finish packing and unpacking. Our new address will be 1100 Lakeview Dr, Suite 500, Wausau, WI 54403.
