KAUKAUNA — In 1926, Rapide Croche Hydro began generating electricity from the power of the Fox River, marking a significant milestone in Kaukauna Utilities’ history.
Built to meet the growing demand for electricity and support economic growth throughout the region, the facility helped expand local electric service, attract industry, and establish a legacy of affordable, reliable and sustainable energy that continues today.

Please RSVP by Friday, July 10th so they can plan accordingly.
