Hello everyone, as the new year swarms us with the possibilities and changes, we here at Citizen Wausau seek to bring new voices to the table. Recently we added a few, and you will learn about them later, but before we get there, we wanted to seek more voices from the wealth that is this fine city.
It is my hope that we can find the following:
1. A city council reporter/correspondent. While I love attending these meetings, I am sometimes unable to. I would love to be able to have a regular contributor there to give us a rundown on what they had seen and heard. The minutes of these meetings reflect the record, but there is something all together different in watching the faces and body language of the folks on the council.
2. High School sports. Last week I had the great pleasure of going to a high school basketball game. It was amazing. We would love for more high school age folks to be involved in CW, and maybe this is a start.
3. The PAF. While the PAF is a highly successful thing, we would love to spend more time talking to someone from there. We think it is a valuable resource and a shining light for the entire state. This needs to be broad enough to encompass the WCT and all the other Community Theatre projects.
4. Wausau Area Events. This might just be a summer time slot, unless we can find someone who would like to dig around like I would love to see them dig around. WAE does things every day, it seems like, over the summer months.
There will of course be more possibilities, but those four pop into mind right away. Please leave a comment if you are interested in providing us with posts on any of the above subjects. You don’t have to be a regular contributor if you don’t have the time to invest, but we’d love to read whatever you can provide. If you have ideas for other “beats” around town, leave a comment about those as well. You can also email us for further information.
