There may be a quorum of the Forest County Board of Supervisors as the Wisconsin Dept. of Tourism will present a JEM Grant award to Forest County Economic Development Partnership as the sponsoring entity for the 2018 ‘Fall in Love with the Byway’ campaign.  The $38,633.00 award will fund a promotional campaign to increase visitors and revenue to the communities and counties on the path of the 145 mile Nicolet Wolf River Scenic Byway. 

The campaign begins September 4 and continues through October 31.  We anticipate a very positive economic impact to Forest as well as well as neighboring counties; Langlade, Oneida, and Vilas. 

The presentation will be made by Jeff Anderson, Regional Representative for the Wisconsin Dept. of Tourism.  We invite and encourage all elected officials to join in the celebration on Wednesday, July 18, 3:00 p.m. on the greens of the Forest County Courthouse.  With your presence, this is an opportunity to express our gratitude to the many people involved in making the Byway a reality; an effort that began ten years ago.  

Refreshments will be served.

There will not be any action taken on official County business.
