Notes for the Week - November 30th

I am working some posts about the upcoming referendum that was approved this week by the Menomonie school board. I put together a short survey to help me figure out what to include. Please take a few minutes to complete. You can find it here. I will have a post on the website with a link to the survey and will also put it up on the Menomonie Minute Facebook page. Please share with your family and friends. Thank you!

This past Tuesday was Giving Tuesday. Stepping Stones shared the following: 515. That's the number of kids' weekend meal bags (also known as SAM bags) that were packed by volunteers the week before Thanksgiving. This number was 433 only 8 weeks ago, and numbers are steadily increasing. This giving season, please consider donating to support our ongoing programs.

Two of the stars of the Menomonie Theater Guild's upcoming production of Frozen Jr. made an appearance on WEAU this week. You don't want to miss this great interview with these two amazing girls. Watch it HERE.
