If you've ever been talking to someone from outside Wisconsin, who recognized the name "Wausau," they probably learned about the Marathon County Seat because of one of these companies and their products. So this month we are featuring the stories of these companies that "Put Wausau on the Map."
This month we decided to put a well-deserved spotlight on a few kinds of maps, to learn how to read and interpret them, and to see a few stories they can tell us.
The Third Graders at Marathon Area Elementary have spent the last twelve weeks studying a notable individual from the past and then recorded a short video to show what they learned about them. And these videos were compiled to create a virtual "wax museum."
