Greater Chippewa Valley League of Women Voters forum on Gerrymandering
This is the first forum sponsored by the recently-rebooted Chippewa Valley League of Women Voters chapter. This session is a presenation by Andrea Kaminski, Executive Director of the League of Women Voters of Wisconsin, and Jay Heck, Executive Director of Common Cause. The session was followed by a lively Q&A session. There were over 75 in attendance at the meeting, which is a great start for the local chapter. For more information on the LWV in Wisconsin, including information on how to join, see the link below. Since the chapter locally is new, it is an At-Large chapter, meaning you will have to join the state-wide organization, and wlll become a member of the local chapter that way.
The LWV will have an organizational meeting on July 13 in Menomonie.

Chippewa Guide
Okay, this isn't political - but what the heck, it's my web site and sometimes you just have to say what you have to say. There's always something going on here at the farm - at the moment I'm furiously working on a new project called Chippewa Guide . Chippewa Guide is intended to be a complete guide to the Chippewa Valley, built on a Web 2.0 model - I want to build a guide that will primarily be built from community input.
At the moment I'm trying to get input from the business and arts community in the Chipewa Valley, which is why I'm posting here about it. If you have any interest in forming the design of a guide to the Chippewa Valley, you can sign up for a mailing list to discuss the guide.
Or you can just contact me directly. I'm looking for ideas and potential collaborators. Let me know!
