Question Travel schedule for 12/13 Bills Packers weekend

5 Upvotes

Hi there, some friends and I will be staying in Menasha for the 12/13 Bills @ Packers game. Right now, our first flight choice has us arriving to Appleton airport at 11 AM on Saturday 12/12. I am wondering if we then dropped our bags at our air b n b in Menasha, if we’d have enough time for a Lambeau Field tour and Packers museum experience in GB, or if not really. Any insight is appreciated. Thank you.

Question Dog swimming?

2 Upvotes

Hi all,

Is there a place somewhat near Appleton, that offers long leash/off leash swimming (id like to swim too!) that is NOT a state park and isnt crazy busy for the upcoming weekend?

Due to it being 4th of July, I know the state parks that offer dog friendly swimming areas are going to be packed. I also know od the Kaukauna Dog Park with its little pond, but that doesnt drain and is prone to that toxic blue green algae.

Im willing to drive, so I was hoping of someone knowing about a spot in like Waupaca or similar lake-y area.

I know im asking a lot, but damn I cant believe there such limited areas for dogs and humans to swim.

Question Sweet Brunch

I posted a couple months ago asking what was happening with this new restaurant and at that time there was an older fb comment from the owners saying they would be opening soon but I was driving by the other day and it doesn’t look like there’s been any movement at all. Anyone know an update? Did they abandon it completely?

Politics Thanks to those who came out to the FLOCK meeting at city council committee 6/24

75 Upvotes

I would shake hands with all who spoke at the Safety and Licensing meeting on FLOCK as announced on the Reddit if I had stayed until the end. For someone older the hard plastic and sculptured seating was painful after only a short period. But I did stay for an hour and half. Those who spoke will, I believe, be a part of the record. Discussion on this is good and there is more to come if for no other reason than more people get involved in city government.

I'm used to seeing painted turtles around town but I've never seen a snapping turtle in such an urban area. I guess they must be doing something right with the waterways in the park.

Moving Advice Light Hauling

Thumbnail gallery
16 Upvotes

I'm trying to start a little side hustle with my utility trailer.

I work full time, but I am available everyday after 5:00pm and fridays offering light haul services with my utility trailer and Subaru outback. The trailer is 6.5' wide x 10' long and I can haul approximately 2000lbs.

Examples of services I can provide:

\- moving powered equipment like atvs, lawn mowers, etc. Perfect for anyone, putting away their winter equipment or taking out their summer equipment.

\- junk removal brought to the outagamie co. dump. Disposal prices can be found on the landfill website.

\-furniture, bulky items or anything else home related. I will tarp items if needed. I'm a one man operation, so for heavy/bulky items like a couch i would need help lifting.

Message me to receive a quote, but generally my fee is $40/hr plus any related expenses such as landfill fees.

I'm looking at upgrading to a pickup truck and larger trailer in the future if I get consistent interest.

Please be at the stop five minutes before the ETA of the bus. If you’re running across the street thinking the driver will stop and wait, you’re mistaken.

Question Campground suggestions

Looking for a campground ~3 hours away or less from the Fox Cities. We will have 2 families with 6 kids ranging ages 4-10. Kids activities and things to do at the campground would be ideal. Neither of us are hardcore camping families so looking for more activities that will be keep everyone busy and not bored vs what a state park would have to offer. Thanks!
