The FP&M tradition continues for another year with the 9th Annual Brats for Tots Cookout to benefit the local Toys For Tots Foundation, a not-for-profit public charity that collects toys for children in the community.
The event will be held Thursday, Oct. 15, 2026 from 11 a.m. until 1 p.m. at Fleet & Service Garage 27 N. Charter St.
Due to scheduling challenges resulting from the chilled water line incident and available committee resources, Brats for Tots will remain a first-shift only event; there will not be second or third shift events this year. Interested in leading a second or third shift Brats for Tots event in the future? Please contact Brad Schenkel at bradley.schenkel@wisc.edu or 608-265-5293.
