Shawano County Board’s Executive Committee unanimously approved a resolution asking the Legislature to create a nonpartisan procedure for the drawing of redistricting maps. This would end the gerrymandering we have been living with. Please call your County Board Supervisor and tell them to vote “yes” at the Aug. 26th County Board meeting. If you would like to give your support to our efforts, come to the meeting which begins at 3:00 pm.

Parents are terrified and they should be. COVID-19 is extremely infectious.
It’s a tough time for parents and school districts. They are forced to make decisions they don’t want to make.
With no federal guidelines to follow, each school district must wrestle with how best to accommodate all students in a safe environment. Options include returning to virtual learning started in the spring, the usual in-class instruction or some combination of the two.
The Shawano County Democrats held a sign painting party on Wednesday, August 12th. The event was held at the home of Shawano County Democrats Chairperson Jan Koch.
Pictured below is 8th District Congressional Candidate Amanda Stuck who was on hand to join in the sign making effort.
The Shawano Dems will be painting signs on Wednesday, August 12th at Koch residence on the west shore of Shawano Lake. We will be painting the base coat from 10:00-12:00 am. Richard Sarnwick and Amanda Stuck will be there to help.
Around 2:00 pm we will be spray painting the lettering which should take a few hours.
If you can help out, send Jan Koch an email or call/text at 715-296-6726 telling what time you can come. She will respond with her address.
