Meetings: Shawano meetings 1st Saturday of the month at 1 pm.

See text for locations.

Langlade meetings also listed in text.

 

Our Shawano meeting was held at the Coachlight Bar & Grill on Saturday November 1st. We had 23 members in attendance. The meeting started with the Pledge of Allegiance followed by a Moment of Silence for those in harm’s way.  Langlade had their meeting on November 8 at White Lake’s Top Secret in White Lake. We proceeded through the same agenda.

 

Pauline presented the Treasury report that included the FYNR results. We sent almost $1200 to the state in October. We held a 50/50. We will be filing our raffle ticket license soon.

 

For Legislation, we reviewed the veto by our Governor Evers of SB184. Lobby Day is Tuesday, February 17th, 2026. Watch for changes in the bus schedule-there is no Green Bay stop.

 

Sue continues to train driving students in Antigo. So far 225 students have been trained. She will be hosting a session at the Antigo senior center soon.

 

Good news! I confirmed Bruce Prellwictz is at an assisted living facility in Waupaca and I will plan to go there to see what his situation is and if he would like to receive his newsletter. Bruce is a lifetime member with over 25 years and the previous Region 3C Region Rep.

 

On Nov 3 Kaitlyn Cress (who crossed the centerline on Cty Hwy R last year and hit a couple from Manitowoc with severe but not fatal consequences) had a plea hearing. Her attorney asked for a new date as new information was provided and he needed more time. The next court date is January 30 at 1:30 pm for a plea hearing.  I was surprised that Kaitlyn was not in jail already.

 

SAFETY: We reviewed the yearly fatalities. The safety topic was watching for fall leaves, deer, and wet pavement during fall.

 

Our B2B Tour Potluck Meeting and B2B awards followed our meeting at the Coachlight Bar & Grill.  Casey and Doug won the most stops. We had 1st - 4th $$ winners and many certificates and 1 Bottle from the Back Road Bar. We want to thank all of our business members for participating in our B2B Tour and supporting ABATE of Wisconsin.

 

Sue and Robin will be at the Antigo Christmas Parade on December 3 providing awareness around ABATE of Wisconsin. Call Sue to contribute candy or walk in the parade. Sounds like fun.

 

We will hold a Cookie Raffle right after our December meeting on Dec 6 at Remi’s Bar & Grill in Cecil. Get those great Christmas cookies and treat recipes out. We usually have some great “surprises” arrive for this event. And they all taste so good.

 

Robin is coordinating a Walking Meat Raffle starting at Boettcher’s Bar in Antigo and continuing to Kastaway’s, Taphouse, Animals, and ending at Beer 30. The raffle starts after a brief meeting. Meat purchased from Charlies County Market.

 

Thank you, Nikki, Naomi, and Grace at the Coachlight and also to Melissa and Sarah at White Lake Top Secret for your hospitality and for supporting ABATE of Wisconsin!

​

Hi Everyone,

 

Not much going on. We did not have a meeting as we were out of town. Also, there will not be a meeting in October because we will be at Freeze Your Nuts Run, so come join us for that. It’s going to be a great time.

 

Our next meeting will be November 8th at White Lake Top Secret see you there.

​

Robin
