Good morning, Whitewater
There are two public meetings scheduled for Whitewater today, and one election. There’s a meeting of the Whitewater-University Tech Park Committee at 12:30 p.m. today, at the University. Later, there will be a South Campus Neighborhood Association meeting, at 7 p.m., at the Municipal Building.
It’s also election day in Whitewater, because it’s election day in Wisconsin.
In 2002, the Wisconsin Historical Society notes a proud accomplishment for Wisconsin, as Wisconsin Skater Takes Gold:
On this date West Allis native Chris Witty won a gold medal in speed skating’s 1000 meter at the Salt Lake City Olympic Winter Games. She broke the world record with a time of 1:13.82, even though she was recovering from mononucleosis. Before Witty competed in ice staking, she was a professional bicyclist.
