One word - PROUD!

Waunakee's Prairie Elementary School is a State School of Character. Take a few minutes to watch this video which proves it! http://vimeo.com/44730572

Congratulations to everyone at Prairie School (students, teachers, parents and administrators), and the Waunakee School District, for making character education a top priority.

¿What's That?? Winner and Reveal

Congratulations to Angela Butkevic for submitting the first correct answer: Cousins Subs.  The photo was of the trademark tiles behind the main counter.  The larger version of the original photo is posted below.

Cousins is located at 604 East Main Street, at the intersection of Main and Division, next door to Anytime Fitness.  New Wisconsin sub options including cheesy chicken and the Wisconsin steak and brat on onion cheddar bread have recently been added to the menu, so stop by and try one!

Thank you to Cousins for participating and thank you to everyone who participated this week.  Please stay on the look out for another chance to win next Tuesday morning at 8:00 a.m.

¿¿What's That?? - Another Chance

Stumped?  Though I have received some guesses, no one has guessed correctly yet.  This a different view of the same picture posted last week, taken at a Waunakee business.  As was noted last week, the first correct response will receive a gift card from the featured business!                            

Please submit your answer to Stephen Bechler via email at adminintern@vil.waunakee.wi.us.  Good luck and thank you for participating!  For more information on ¿¿What's That?? click here

P.S. Stay tuned for the picture reveal and winner!

Leaf Collection

Leaf collection will begin on October 1, 2012 and end on November 15, 2012. Please remember to keep the brush and leaves separate from each other. Leaves must be on the terrace in front of your house, not in the road. There is no leaf pick up in the alleys and leaves in plastic bags must be removed from the plastic bags before pick up. If you would like to haul your own leaves and brush you can take them out to the compost site on Highway Q south of the Village just past Highway K.
