On Wisconsin would regulate dog breeders under bill

It's just another TAX on the small business owner. Do you really think this will stop or regulate the "puppy-mills"? Most of those operations are out in the sticks, out of sight.

On Walworth County Fair numbers remain strong

Yep!! Spent 5 days at the fair. Had a GREAT time visiting with folks we only get to see about once a year -- at the fair! It always amazes me the number of talented kids (and adults) we have in the area with all of the exhibits and entertainment. For all there is to see, the admission price is well worth it.

On another note, Scott -- "...heading to its 161th anniversary in 2010..." Shouldn't that be 161st? Or would 2011 be the one-hundred and sixty-tooth? <grin>

Sorry, couldn't pass that up! Thanks for a great story and photos!

Absolutely, I could not agree more! Being avid campers we have always followed the DNR rules for firewood in an attempt to minimize the spread of EAB.

It's Friday and I couldn't pass up the opportunity for a little "humor". Lighten up!

How was that for covering my ash? (sorry)

On Doyle approval rating at all-time low in survey

Sorry, I disagree with term limits. If you have someone in office that is doing a good job, let them stay. If someone wishes to run against them, may the best person win.
...
With term limits, some "putz" could be elected only because the person most qualified had to step down.
...
Nope. No term limits for me!

On Membership declining among service clubs

Posted on March 23 at 9:39 p.m. ( Suggest removal )

JvlBorn: You may be right with clubs splitting due to differences but I think the reason "new" clubs have started is an attempt to increase membership by accommodating those unable to attend the "regular" club meeting times.

Does sponsorship tend to exclude potential members? Perhaps. Unfortunately today, ANY potential member is screened through CCAP and other sources only because of our involvement with children and elderly. It is an ugly fact there are n'er-do-well's in our midst and we like to have the sponsor at least get to know their prospect (at least a little) before presenting them for possible membership. Sad fact of today's society.
===
Demographics have changed and the days of one parent working are gone. Even though many have a desire to volunteer, time contraints prohibit their participation. Many folks believe if they can't give a service club 110%, they won't join. Unfortunately, membership suffers as does the community it supports.
