We at Bremer are so proud to be a part of the Menomonie community, which was recently named as the 15th best small town in America according to the Smithsonian Magazine. Below is an excerpt from the May 2012 publication.
"For more than 120 summers, families from all over the Chippewa Valley have packed up picnic dinners and headed down to Menomonie to see whatever was going on at the Wilson Park band shell: sometimes a concert by the Ludington Guard Band, one of Wisconsin's oldest performing city bands, or sometimes a Shakespearean play performed by the Menomonie Theater Guild. If you're in town during the colder months, you can still catch a show at the historic Mabel Tainter Center for the Arts, built as a community center and Unitarian church in 1889 and now serving as a visual and performing arts hub. The presence of the University of Wisconsin-Stout, a widely respected polytechnical institute, draws some of the most sophisticated technological, commercial and industrial minds to the former lumber town. -- AS"
