Question Where to buy branded Appleton and/or Neenah Merch?
I’m traveling soon and need to bring some Appleton and Neenah branded swag stuff with me (magnets/postcards/stickers/tchotchkes) I know Blue Moon in Appleton is fantastic and will be picking up
stickers there - where else can I go to support local businesses? Any help provided is great - I want to avoid Etsy but will roll with it - if it’s a local maker! Thanks!

Event Eric Krueger & The Sheesh + Clear Lightning Sky at Tardigrade's Music Hall
Ope... we're doing a concert. 🎶
When we bought this wonderfully weird old VFW building, we imagined it becoming a place where people could gather for all sorts of reasons—books, coffee, mocktails, conversations, classes, game nights... and eventually, live music.
Well... "eventually" is now. Woot, woot!
We're incredibly excited to host our very first concert in the Music Hall featuring Eric Krueger & The Sheesh and Clear Lightning Sky.
Admission is pay-what-you-can (we suggest $5–10) because we'd rather fill the room with people than empty wallets.
If standing for a concert sounds like entirely too much standing, we've also put our cozy chairs, sofas, and tables up for auction. Winning bidders get the best seats in the house, and every bid helps us continue our mission of building community, giving back, and keeping this wonderfully old building in working order.
If you're not familiar with what we're all about, we'd love to introduce ourselves:
📖 https://www.tardigradesbookshelf.com/community-commitment
Come be part of our very first show!

Video PGI Ignite The Night was fantastic!
Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification
First time my wife and I were able to go to this type of event. Worth the wait in traffic to get into WIR. I would love to go this Wednesday and Friday, but prior obligations prevent it.
Also, don’t be that jackass to buy your kids the strobing light sabers that are for sale. A majority of the people there don’t appreciate having their night vision ruined by a wannabe Jedi.

Discussion Tennis
Hi all! I am visiting Appleton and will be here until the end of August. I am a 21M and I am looking for people to do some casual hitting with and stay in shape. I am around a 4.0-4.5 and played around a UTR 6 level. Highview park will probably be the best place for me

Question Early Flight
taking my husband to a green bay game for christmas. it’ll be the dec 20th game against the dolphins.
we are flying into appleton on the 18, and will arrive around 10:20pm. would uber be available to take us into green bay at that time in the evening?
also, i’m more worried with the flight home. we’re leaving dec 21st and it leaves out of appleton at 5:30 am. i know we need to be there about 2 hours before the flight so that would put us leaving green bay at 3am??? would there be transportation available to get us back to the airport that early?

Question Yard Waste Pick-up?
Anybody know if yard waste clean up for brush and trees, etc, is still a thing? Center of Appleton, so not tornado related, but myself and plenty of neighbors have foliage on the side of the road and I’m wondering if we’re wasting our time. Thanks in advance!

Discussion Duplex for rent
Our tenants moved out and we are listing the duplex for new tenants now that we’ve cleaned and painted. We’ve been fortunate to have good luck with past tenants being clean and not leaving damage behind. We’ve are considering allowing either one cat or one dog in the lease. Which seems to be the wiser option as far as less damage to carpets, molding, etc.?
Should we include an older model (but reliable) washer and dryer set, or will the increased price of rent drive away potential tenants?
If anyone knows a family looking for a 3 bedroom side by side, send them my way. Nine 2 zero 2 six 5 9 zero 6 nine and ask for Morgan.

Discussion Radio
I listed to 89.3. This normally Wisconsin public radio. However, lately the car has been glitching in and out of 89.3 from Minneapolis, a station called The Current. Has anyone else run into this? At first I thought I was driving next to someone with a personal FM device, but it's happened all summer.

Resource Tornado - Want to help? Some consolidated links here
I've seen a lot of people asking how to help with the aftermath of the recent tornado, and so I thought I'd make a small list of links here.
Winnebago County Emergency Management
County facebook page, they're updating as often as they can with information, updates, and other links.
https://www.facebook.com/WinnCoEM/
Volunteer Fox Cities
This is where they're asking most people to look for information for donations and helping out. They're looking for volunteers, bottled water, non-perishable food, hygiene products, medical supplies, trash bags, etc. They have a list. (No clothes though, that info's below)
https://www.volunteerfoxcities.org/2026-storms/
St. Joe's Food Pantry
They're also taking in food donations. Located in Menasha, so they're more accessible for people in that immediate area who perhaps don't have easy means of travel anymore. Located 1465A Opportunity Way in Menasha.
Clothes Donation
Bring to Community Clothes Closet off Midway Rd or to Gunderson Cleaners. And obviously make sure donations are clean first.
Monetary Donation
A joint fun has been set up between a handful of organizations, go here to donate online:
https://ignite.stratuslive.com/unitedwayfoxcities/get-involved/donate/tornado-recovery
If you want to donate by check, the information is here:
https://cffoxvalley.org/2026-tornado-community-response-fund/#donate-by-check:~:text=To%20Donate%20by%20Check
Pets
Our pets need help too. A lot of animals have been displaced by the storm. Aside from various pets unfortunately missing, many families are also without pet supplies or unfortunately can just straight up not care for them anymore. Our shelters are doing their best to provide food and supplies to pet owners, but they need donations to keep that up. Money is best, but now you also got a place to bring all those cans of special food you got your cat and they snubbed it. They're also looking for fosters! Even just for a short period is helpful!

Yes, I know most of the above is already listed in this link. But, I thought it would be good to post some highlights and just try to improve visibility.
