Evansville soybean crushing plant to feed biofuel industry
Hello, Rock County! Here are your top Friday headlines. Wisconsin immigrant advocacy organization Voces de la Frontera is assigning a network of election observers and community volunteers ahead of the Nov. 3 election, citing concerns that if federal agents or law enforcement are stationed near polling places, it could intimidate voters. Japanese tourists love Edgerton and Wisconsin because of the city and state's ties to the Sterling North-penned children's novel "Rascal," which Japanese people revere because it was adapted into a 1970s anime series. A group has established the "Rascal Trail," a new network of tourist stops curated because of ties to both Rascal, and pieces of Japanese culture embedded in Wisconsin. Stops are in Edgerton, where Sterling North grew up, and in Madison, Milwaukee and Jefferson, among other communities statewide. Do you have a story you'd like the Gazette to follow?
