City crews will be collecting trees curbside from today through January fourteenth. The city wants the trees naked: no ornaments, tinsel or tree bags and they should be out on the curb by seven in the morning. Trees can also get dropped off at the Isle La Plume brush site Monday through Friday.
Boys Club Roof Collapse At West SalemFriday, 31 December 2010 12:30 | | |
Imagine the roof collapse at the Metrodome, happening on a much smaller scale...
A cave-in at the Boys and Girls Club of West Salem looks more damaging than the recent accident in Minneapolis. The center of the club's roof fell in overnight, pushing the ceiling of the lobby area down to the floor. Boys and Girls Club director Mike Desmond says insurance ought to cover the damage. The building is owned by Franciscan Skemp, which operated a clinic there until the current Onalaska clinic opened three years ago. Desmond was helping firemen and volunteers remove furniture and game tables from the building today. The club was scheduled to be closed for the New Year's weekend anyway.

Sparta Bar Burns On New Years DaySaturday, 01 January 2011 20:08 | | |
A bar, just closing up after a very successful New Year's Eve Celebration, half burned to the ground early this morning. Fire erupted around 4:45 at Crocker's bar on the outskirts of Sparta, just after the owners had closed up. Firefighters were on scene most of the afternoon and the State Fire Marshal was on scene around 3pm to investigate the blaze. It took firefighters about an hour in single digit temperatures to knock down the blaze that could be seen from the I-90/94 overpass about a half mile from the bar. No one was in the bar at the time the blaze broke out and there were no reported injuries. Two houses on the property close to the bar were not damaged. No word yet on what caused the blaze.
Hancock Weighs Another Run For 94thThursday, 30 December 2010 21:20 | | |
This hasn't happened in over 25 years...
Wisconsin's 94th Assembly District is preparing for a special election to fill a vacant seat, because state rep Mike Huebsch has a new job in Governor-elect Walker's cabinet. Huebsch will not get to serve the term he won in November against Democrat Cheryl Hancock. And Hancock says the possibility of Huebsch getting a promotion out of the legislature was rumored about a couple of years ago. Hancock hasn't decided whether she would run in a spring election. The last time the 94th District seat was open was in 1984, when Democrat Virgil Roberts gave up a safe seat to run a losing campaign for State Senate. Roberts regained the seat two years later, and kept it until he lost in 1994...to Mike Huebsch. |
