Dog Park

Under the commentary for the Disk Park there is a suggestion for a dog park which I think is a great idea. I know there is one in Ripon but it is not easily accessible. I would love to see one around here. What do you think?

Land Use and Planning Commission Mtg

There is a County Land Use and Planning Commission meeting on Thursday, Feb. 26. I'm not sure where the meeting is being held at the moment. It can determine the direction of the county in the next 30 years and if you don't go you will be the same people who go to ABA development meetings or Nortons sale meeting too late and wonder what happened.

How's The Fishing?

The Walkers Fisheree is this weekend. How's everybody doing? What is the ice like? Who's winning? There were 212 entered in the contest. I know Jay Kramer did pretty well. How was everybody else?

Feb 17th Elections.

I'm falling down on the job here. Thanks for reminding me to post this. I meant to do it a while ago. I'm getting a little worn down on the school and property stuff.

Anyway, there are elections coming up for the school board. I am not sure what else there is. There were interviews in the Green Lake and Ripon papers with the candidates.

Area Unemployment Stats

This is information is from the US Bureau of Labor Statistics. This area currently has an unemployment rate of about %5.9, ending December 2008, for the Fond du Lac Area which is the closest to the Green Lake area that are currently on record. The national unemployment figures came out today.

I am just wondering what is going on out there with local jobs and how secure people feel about their jobs right now.
