Sarah Spang & Steve Leaman, Pop-Up Fond du Lac

Steve and Sarah talked about their Pop up Crepe event. A group of eight put together this event to promote Fond du Lac. It is an offshoot of Envision and a talk from Greg of Fargo ND. The Pop up Crepe Café, the inaugural event of the newly formed Pop up Fond du Lac, recently operated at the former Pockets Bar in downtown Fond du Lac. The group more than doubled their excepted business over the course of the two days, selling approximately 2,000 crepes. Funds made from the Crepe Café will be held to assist in funding future pop up events. Pop Up Fond du Lac hopes to ignite a conversation on how unique events can provide unlimited possibilities for the community.  Anyone that is interested in finding out more about future events is encouraged to follow Pop Up Fond du Lac on Facebook. The group has the support of Envision Fond du Lac as this falls under their plan’s first year focus of implementing projects such as pop up events.

Allen Buechel, Fond du Lac County Executive

Allen has served as Executive since 1993 after serving on the County Board for 17 years. Some of Allen’s highlights are piloting a welfare reform program starting in 1994, county’s program for long term care program for elderly, and regional medical examiners program serving 14 counties. Other major projects include addition of the new University Center, consolidation of four dispatch services, safety upgrade to airport, expansion of county golf course, three new parks and major expansion of the jail. Allen talked about temporary changes to the intersection of Hwy K and Hwy 23. Because the Hwy 23 project is on hold, they need to make changes to handle the new traffic load. It will be similar to the intersections on the bypass. They are upgrading Hwy V and Hwy 151 bypass.  Hwy 45 over 151 will lose it off ramps to 151 and become a county road. And finally Harbor Haven is being remodeling. Thanks to Allen for the update and any questions.
