Past Events with McLit


Marathon County Literacy held our first annual spelling bee October 2024. We had so much fun raising money for literacy in Central Wisconsin and are looking forward to doing it again.


Arc-Hives Johanna and Matthew for GEM Learning Center won first place! Great job guys!


Thanks to all of our sponsors and participants in the bee. You helped the Wausau community grow and succeed!



Celin and Ligia celebrated Day of the Dead in the community with HOLA.


HOLA (Healthy Opportunities for Latin Americans) provides individuals and their families with important bilingual resources and assistance.

We held our 7th birthday party August 2024. The party was complete with cake, tacos, popcorn, and many different drinks.


Thanks to everyone who brought something to share and to everyone who stopped in to celebrate!


We had such an amazing time and are looking forward to more birthday parties.
