Tomahawk Leader

Looks like the work on the dam is complete. They are re landscaping the parking area and have resurfaced the temporary road they put in on the south side. Cleaned up the gravel and put in top soil and seeded it. They have put in top soil and seeded the back face of the dam and are putting gravel do...

. The donation to the Honor Flight will pay for one Veteran to travel to Washington DC to visit the military memorials and be honored for their service. Years ago , a few months before my Dad passed, I took him on The Honor Flight to The World War II Memorial. He was very sick and in a wheelchair. ...

The United States has always been a "Divided" nation. Racism, Prejudice and Division is a part of us, and has only grown more rampant in the past two years. Cait`s speech brought it to our attention. And , not letting her give the speech, just validated her words. As in the words of our ow...

Does anyone know if work on Phase 2 was started over the Spring, or now that we`re into Summer?

Some ideas just go too far! There should BOY SCOUTS AND There should Girl Scouts. If there are things they do in Boy Scouts that some girls would like to try, then I`m sure some of those things could easily be introduced into the Girl Scout curriculum. And , vice-versa. As a former scout leader I fi...

Well then.............That settles it!

There is no longer THE BOY SCOUTS OF AMERICA!

Now

We have .................

Isn`t the reason for the band do to the fact they found deer with Chronic Wasting Disease.

I thought that if they go 2-3 years without finding deer with Chronic Wasting Disease the band would expire?

IT`S FREEZING!!!!!!!

There must be plenty of good ice in Tomahawk!

Any big ones come through the ice!

Phase 2 will involve addressing a boil that was discovered and addressed two years ago next to the fishing platform below the Spirit Dam. They plan to address it after the rainy season next summer. Not sure yet of what all the details will include, but I suspect it will be much less involved than t...

Any Idea what is all involved in "PHASE 2"

Looking at the article in The Leader, it seems like the work to fix the Dam problem is more complicated then I thought. :oops: Which might be a good thing. The fix looks to be a more permanent fix to the problem. :) I somehow feel this problem could affect other Dams in the Tomahawk area in the futu...

Not much chatter anymore about The Fall Ride.

It used to be the topic of a lot of conversations.

Any thoughts on the 2017 Fall Ride?

No need to worry about gay Boy Scouts. The real agenda is to secure a positions for adult gay male Boy Scout leaders. Not that they would ever have any interest in boys . "A kid in a Candy Store" is the quote that comes to mind. ' THAT, has been the problem for decades. NOT, gay scouts, B...

They are working on it now. Mon - Thurs, long days but 3 day weekend. Not sure what all they are doing but a lot of steel has been driven in behind the berm. they also built a road to reach the south side for their equipment. OH, Good! :D They`re installing the special Walleye / Northern Pike barri...

Well, Summer is half over!

There must be some head way made on The Spirit Dam by now?

I don`t think if they pass the law it would be life altering. Probably most tickets would be to tourists visiting downtown. :( You`re riding down the street, looking for a parking space, you spot one on the opposite side of the street, your first reaction is to turn left and get to it before it`s go...

I can see why they figure on having the dam done by Thanksgiving. They bring in a piece of equipment and disappear for the rest of the week. As of today they have a lot of equipment and trailers parked around the lot and on the dam but I haven't seen anyone there doing anything that looks like they...

I wonder if we could lower the gas prices if only 2 grades of gas would be sold?

Just lower octane and the higher octane.

Do we really need 3 grades of gas?

It`s around $2.27 in Milwaukee.

Some are a little higher, some are a little lower.

Unfortunately, it`s Reformulated Ethanol Gas.

I`d pay more for real gas.

I don`t even want to use that gas in my motorcycle, lawnmower, or any small engine!

From the amount of equipment and supplies they are hauling in it must be a rather serious repair they are planning. Seems like I read that they plan on putting some kind of plate in on the water side. Perhaps MrBrowns can fill us in as I believe he is the one that wrote about it. ' So , the plate i...

Does anyone know exactly what all is involved in the repairs?

It must be pretty complicated to do any kind of fix with water still coming through!

You`d think they`d have to empty the entire Spirit !

I bet they get the water level at a all time low before the work is completed!
