Enjoyed another celebration of Wisconsin dairy at Thorp FFA Dairy Breakfast on Sunday! A huge thank you to Sander and Amy Penterman at Dutch Dairy for hosting this year. The work you do in promoting the dairy industry in our state is great. Thanks to all the farmers who make Wisconsin's agricultural industry strong! 🥛🧀

Last Sunday, I stopped by the Town and Country Dairy Breakfast in Medford. While there, I caught up with several constituents, including Clem Johnson and Billie Hartwig. It was great to chat with everyone!

There was a great turnout on Saturday for the 29th Annual Make Their Hearts Smile Truck Convoy. It was truly a sight to see—dozens upon dozens of semi-tractor trailers, school buses, trucks, and cars driving from Neillsville to Marshfield and back to support Make-A-Wish Wisconsin. I was glad to be a part of the convoy!

I was honored to attend the graduation ceremony for the 56th Class of the Wisconsin National Guard's Challenge Academy last Wednesday. Successfully completing this rigorous 22-week program is a tremendous accomplishment. Congratulations to all the graduates! I wish them the best in their future endeavors!

It was great to support Athens Youth Baseball at their Dinner on the Square fundraiser last Friday. Youth sports are an important part of our communities. Thank you to all the parents, family members, and community members who help our young athletes grow into strong and talented adults!

This morning, the Loyal Greyhounds will take on Columbus Catholic in the Division 4 Semifinals of the Wisconsin Interscholastic Athletic Association's State Baseball Tournament in Appleton. This is the team's first-ever appearance at state. I wish them the very best in today's game. Go Greyhounds!

On Friday, I had the privilege of attending the grand opening and ribbon cutting for Homer's Bar & Grill and Ashley's Sweet Treats & More in Greenwood. It is always a pleasure to help welcome new small businesses to the 69th Assembly District.

🇺🇸 Happy Flag Day! 🇺🇸

On this day in 1777 the Second Continental Congress passed a resolution creating the first official flag of the United States. Happy birthday to the stars and stripes!

Earlier this week, the Loyal Greyhounds baseball team earned their first-ever trip to state with a 5-0 victory over Mellen. They are scheduled to take on Columbus Catholic on Tuesday at the Wisconsin Interscholastic Athletic Association (WIAA) State Baseball Tournament in Appleton. Congratulations to the players and coaches on this tremendous achievement!

The Medford High School Softball Team is scheduled to face Pewaukee in the Division 2 Semifinals of the Wisconsin Interscholastic Athletic Association's State Softball Tournament this afternoon in Madison. Their hard work has earned them the #1 overall seed in Division 2. I wish them the very best in today's game. Go Raiders!
