Santa Visited New Lisbon's Riverside park |

The Chamber of Commerce was pleased that we could host Santa again this year. Though not at the typical Lyon's craft fair, as we did in years past, but at Gleam of Christmas Cheer at Riverside park this year.
Children from the area came to see Santa, have hot chocolate provided by Black and White Catering, and see the lights at the park.

Wisconsin Maps Commission
Every 10 years, each state redraws their legislative and congressional district maps using data from the decennial census. In addition to the data from the 2020 U.S. Census, the Commission will use the information gathered during the public hearing process to prepare new maps. It is then up to the Legislature to take up and approve the maps created by the Commission.
Selected by a three-judge panel, the Commission is a nine-member nonpartisan redistricting commission charged with drawing fair, impartial maps for Wisconsin. More information about the Commission, its members, and its activities is available HERE.
Due to the COVID-19 public health emergency, the People's Maps Commission will host the public hearings online for each of Wisconsin's congressional districts. Agendas and additional details will be announced in advance of future meeting dates. The hearing dates are as follows:
