A look back at Winona landmarks

From a restaurant known for its Friday night fish fries to a steamboat-turned-museum along the Mississippi River, Winona has a long history of places that hold strong memories for the people who experienced them. Some of those places are still familiar landmarks. Others have disappeared, leaving behind old photographs, stories, and a sense of curiosity among younger residents who never had the chance to visit them.

Deer hunting legend shares public-land secrets

Trophy whitetail hunting legend Greg Miller of Wisconsin was a master at killing big bucks on private and public land, but he estimates that 75% of his deer were harvested on public land. Miller shot his best-ever archery buck, a 17-point non-typical that gross-scored 202 5/8 points in December 1990 on snowy private land in Eau Claire County.

Trio of Fall Creek athletes sign letters of intent

FALL CREEK — Three Fall Creek senior athletes put pen to paper Wednesday at Fall Creek High School, inking their commitments to college athletics next year. Miles Schmidgall signed with NCAA Division II Upper Iowa for basketball, while Ethan Westrate signed with DIII Bethel University for baseball and Rylee Winsand signed with Viterbo University for track and field. “It means a lot making it official,” Schmidgall said. “I’ve been dreaming of this since I was probably 3, 4 years old, and it honestly feels surreal that it’s finally happening.” “It’s kind of like a weight off my shoulders,” Westrate said. “I’ve known that I’m just going to make this decision for a while now. But, finalizing the decision, it feels good.” “I’m really grateful that I’m able to continue my track career,” Winsand said. “It’s something I’ve wanted to do since I was a little kid.” Last year, Schmidgall, a nearly 6-foot-9 forward, was named a Division 4 All-State member and a first-team All-Western Cloverbelt Conference selection after leading the Crickets to a 22-4 record and a share of the conference title.
