This project was funded by the Wisconsin Historical Society as part of a “lasting tools” component of a partnership between the Wisconsin Historical Society and Wisconsin Public Television. This affiliation resulted in the production of Wisconsin Hometown Stories – La Crosse feature documentary which premiered in May 2008.
