Wisconsin

Wisconsin entered the Union in 1848.  It was the 30th state to do so.  Today the capital is Madison.

The nickname for Wisconsin is the Badger State.

Wisconsin is bounded by Illinois, Iowa, Michigan, Minnesota, Lake Superior and Lake Michigan.  The state’s largest cities are Milwaukee, Madison, Green Bay, Kenosha and Racine.

The agriculture in Wisconsin includes cheese, dairy products, corn, cattle, hogs and cranberries.  The industries include food processing, paper products, tourism and machinery.

Some of Wisconsin’s state symbols are:
            Flower is the wood violet
            Tree is the sugar maple
            Bird is the robin
            Animal is the badger
            Wild life animal is the white tailed deer
            Domestic animal is the cow
            Insect is the honeybee
            Fish is the musky

        Don’t miss ....     

• The House On The Rock.  Built in the 1940’s this is an amazing complex with the center being truly a house built on a 60 foot pillar of rock. It became such a tourist center that it wasn’t long before there were more rooms added as well as a resort and convention center.  Today you can wander from room to room including one with 3264 windows.  From ancient Japanese art to stained glass to rare books, an aviation room, circus room, about 250 doll houses and the world’s largest carousel. Besides the 14 room house, there are streets, buildings, and gardens covering over 200 acres.
• Not far from The House On The Rock is Noah's Ark in Wisconsin Dells.  It’s the nation's largest water-themed park.
• Do you like fishing? Rafting? Swimming? Hiking? Or just enjoying the sound of rushing water? Wisconsin has enough miles of streams and rivers to more than circle the globe.  Additionally, there are 5 state parks along the 250 miles of Lake Michigan’s shoreline.
• In Milwaukee, you can visit the International Clown Hall of Fame (did you know that the first Ringling Brothers circus put on its first show in Wisconsin?). See costumes of many famous clowns and lots of other historical artifacts.
• Heritage Hill State Park in Green Bay is a large park with buildings that have been reconstructed dating from the early pioneer days.  Actors in costume explain the hardships and joys as well as the various jobs needed to survive.
• Also in Green Bay ....you guessed it.  The Packers live there!  Green Bay is arguably the strongest fan base of any pro football team.  Do you know why?  The town actually owns the team!! You can visit the Packers Hall of Fame and take a tour of Lambeau Field
