Bertrand Chosen For Onalaska Council Seat

Tuesday, 11 June 2013 20:40 |

The Onalaska city council chooses its newest member...

Former naval officer Harvey Bertrand was elected from a group of four candidates last night. Bertrand will serve until an election next April, filling the 3rd district seat recently vacated by Kim Smith. All four applicants for the council post spoke to aldermen at last night's meeting, and then the council voted separately on each candidate in random order. Bertrand was the last candidate put to a vote, and the only one to get a three-vote majority from the council.

YWCA/WTC Enter Into An Agreement

Monday, 06 June 2011 16:30 |

The YWCA of the Coulee Region will announce a partnership Tuesday morning with Western Technical College that will keep affordable and accessible child care in downtown La Crosse. It will be at the future YWCA Child Center located on Western Technical College’s La Crosse campus.

Mary Kay Wolf, executive director of the YWCA of the Coulee Region says the Y has a long history of child care and nationally the program is common place for their organization. She says this was excellent timing to bring child care back into the YWCA programming mix after some time without it.

The YWCA Child Center will open August 22nd under the direction of the YWCA. The center will continue to serve as a clinical site for Early Childhood Education students at Western. Enrollment for fall is being accepted.

The WTC board, back in January, voted to close the center.
