Our partners with the Fox Cities Chamber of Commerce helped connect us with Ann Franz, Executive Director of N.E.W. Manufacturing Alliance. Ann comes armed with details on their recent Economic Vitality Study. In basic terms, the study shows us the strength of manufacturing in Northeast Wisconsin and the recruitment need for this industry. She also worked in the U.P., so obviously, she and Maino can connect on that! Then Katy Compton with the Mulva Cultural Center swings by to promote a new exhibit called "Unofficial Galaxies", one of the largest private single collections of Star Wars memorabilia in the world! Then Bryan with Heights Pub & Parlor joins to celebrate their 1 Year Anniversary.
