Picture of the famed Half-way Tree on the edge of Brodhead, Wisconsin. Welcome to the Brodhead, Wisconsin home page on Green County Spotlight. The City of Brodhead is the second-largest community in Green County with 3,180 people (as of the Year 2000 Census). The Brodhead Depot Museum (top left corner of page) is just one of the many attractions in or near the city. The southern end of the 23-mile long Sugar River State Trail is also located in Brodhead as is a splendid reproduction of the Clarence Covered Bridge-- just a short distance up the trail from downtown.

Home of the Half-way Tree -- It is claimed that the half-way tree (left) was paced off and identified by Native American runners as the half-way point between the western shore of Lake Michigan and the Mississippi River. It's really not quite the half-way point and there is also some dispute as to whether this tree was ever actually identified by such an unofficial survey method but it's a good piece of local folklore and the tree retains its title non-the-less.

For sports enthusiasts, the Brodhead area offers Decatur Lake Golf Course (a picturesque 18-hole public golf course) and is home to the Sugar River Raceway featuring go-kart racing on a half-mile paved track not far from the Sugar River. For the adventurer in you, there are two campgrounds nestled along the Sugar River in close proximity to Brodhead: Sweet Minnihaha Campground and Crazy Horse Campground. If you're looking for a little more refined vacationing accommodations, Brodhead offers a couple of relaxing Bed and Breakfast settings to choose from (the Go-inn Home Bed and Breakfast and Sutherland House) as well as a small hotel geared for biking enthusiasts (the Earth Rider Cycling Boutique and Hotel). Go-inn Home has four rooms, Sutherland House has four rooms and Earth Rider has 5 rooms so you'll want to try to book well in advance.

Brodhead's really big bash of the year takes place in August and is called Covered Bridge Days. The event features a variety of activities around Brodhead including a jazz-fest, sidewalk sales, sports tournaments, dancing, a classic car show, civil war reenactments, and lots more. Also during the summer months, you can attend free twilight concerts held either in the Veterans Memorial Park (during good weather) or in the Congressional UCC Church (when the weather is not so nice). The Brodhead Jaycees hold a couple of craft fairs (March and November) and the community holds an annual Autumn Fest on the last Saturday in September. You can find information about these (and many more) events in the Green County Area Community Calendar here on Green County Spotlight.
