Relating to: celebrating the 51st anniversary of the American Birkebeiner and proclaiming February 17 to 23, 2025, as American Birkebeiner Week in Wisconsin.

SJR 5 is a ceremonial resolution that proclaims February 17-23, 2025, as "American Birkebeiner Week" in Wisconsin to celebrate the 51st anniversary of the American Birkebeiner cross-country ski event. It recognizes the event's significance as North America's largest cross-country ski race, which draws over 12,000 skiers and 35,000 spectators annually, supports local tourism in Sawyer and Bayfield Counties, and involves 2,500 volunteers. The resolution has no binding effect and does not create new laws or allocate funds - it is a symbolic gesture of legislative recognition for the American Birkebeiner Ski Foundation's annual event.
