Ribbon cuttings held Tuesday were the things of local dreamers Aug. 4, 2010 There was really more to the ribbon cuttings Tuesday at the city’s new walkway and the building at the Field Street park.
Those attending saw artist’s drawings of the plans for the Spring Brook development — certainly a number of years away. But the fact that the ribbons were cut on the walkway were reminders that nothing is impossible.

Congressman Obey is leaving memories of power, accomplishment May 6, 2010 There is nothing quite like going out at the top of your game.
And that’s just what Wisconsin’s legendary lawmaker, Congressman Dave Obey, did in a surprise announcement Wednesday morning.
After almost 42 years in the U.S. Congress that followed over six years in the Wisconsin legislature, Obey has 48 years registered as a lawmaker. It has been quite a full-time job.
As districts shifted, Obey represented portions of Langlade County and the city of Antigo, and as he is retiring, he is our representative.
