Did you lose your Barbie last weekend at the City Wide Garage Sales? We had a call at the Chamber office from one of the stops who said someone left Barbie at her house. Barbie is here at the Chamber office helping out with Wa Du Shuda things and enjoying her time around town too. Give us a call if she belongs to you and think it's time for her to come home.
Don't worry, we bought her a push pop at the New Lisbon Pool. She loved the diving board!
Barbie loves to read. She spent all day in the air conditioning of the Library! She really enjoyed the big purple chair in the kid's area.
She has been a lot of help here in the Chamber office. She polished the Wa Du Shuda Madalion to get it ready for the scavenger hunt and helped with the Parade paperwork. She is nice to have around, but if it's time for her to come home, we understand (and to tell you the truth, her refusal to wear shoes is a little unprofessional) Just give us a call to arrange a time to pick her up

The New Lisbon Area Chamber of Commerce has chosen the winners of the Community Service Award and Citizen of the year. Each Year we ask the great citizens of New Lisbon to nominate individuals, couples, businesses, and groups for these awards. This year's nominations did not disappoint. We would like to thank everyone who sent in nominations.
The 2021 New Lisbon Citizen of the year honor has been awarded to Nate Koca. He is very deserving of this award, as many community members will tell you. The nomination form that came in this year for Nate said, "Every Thursday for the last 20 years Nate has taken the garbage can of the residents of New Lisbon from the street back to the house for no other reason but to be helpful. Nate always has a smile on his face and is such a joy to interact with." It is not hard to find many more stories like this about Nate and his caring ways. We appreciate what he does for our community.
The 2021 Community Service award is honorably bestowed upon Castle Rock Realty. Bobbi and Randy Brandt, along with everyone at Castle Rock Realty go above and beyond to help our area. They show selflessness in help others, donate to the community, and volunteer their time. They are all well-deserving recipients of this award.
This year we give special recognition to the Sunshine Movement. One nomination for this new organization said, "They bring kindness and a sense of togetherness during a very difficult year." Other nominations noted their Gleam of Christmas Cheer project at Riverside Park.
A banquet in the winners’ honor will be held in October, where we will also honor the 2020 winners. We appreciate everyone who contributes to making the New Lisbon Area such a great place to live, work, and play. Please help us in congratulating these shining examples, and may they inspire you to be your best as well.

The DNR has been putting out notices of very high fire dangers lately. This weekend alone the DNR responded to 26 small wildfires. Burning permits remain suspended. To help keep Wisconsinites safe, the Wisconsin Department of Natural Resources asked the public to reduce outdoor burning, including limiting the use of outdoor grills and campfires.
Although some scattered chances of rain are forecasted, with cooler temperatures and less wind, the precipitation is expected to be very minimal and is not likely to improve the overall fire situation. Fuel conditions such as trees, shrubs and grasses are very dry. Please continue to take extra precautions as a dry stretch of weather remains.

Many businesses have had to change their way of doing things. Either by changing services, like our local bars that have switched to only having take out orders available. Some businesses have changed up their hours, and some are limiting their business in other ways, like only letting a few people in their doors at a time. They are working to help keep our community safe and healthy. The Chamber of Commerce would love for you to help keep their businesses healthy. Healthy physically by staying home if you are sick, but also helping them stay healthy financially. They need our support to keep them in business now and after this Social Distancing orders end. If you need something, can you find it locally, does a small business in the area have the item? When you eat out, are you supporting small businesses? When you buy groceries, are you getting them locally? Check our website to see local businesses you can support.
