2014 Semi-Annual Meeting

Guest speakers for the meeting included Mark O’Connell with Wisconsin Counties Association and Ryan Hexum with Wildwoods Manufacturing, a recent start-up furniture manufacturing company, which has grown due in part to assistance from NWRPC. The keynote speaker at the semi-annual meeting was Senator Bob Jauch. Jauch gave one of his final speeches as a state senator before he retired on January 2, 2015 after serving northern Wisconsin for 32 years. “I want to express my honor in serving you and to let you know we set a good example, the gold standard on good government, on good public service, and creating good opportunities, in a way we are not only serving the citizens today, but more importantly we are creating the right kind of opportunity for people whose faces we will never see and names we will never know, but will be impacted by the good we all do,” Jauch said.

Myron Schuster concluded the meeting with a “State of the Commission” and a quick review of the meeting schedule for 2015.
