It isn’t every day that a family-owned and run restaurant reaches the milestone of being in business for 30 years.

In Shawano, there is one such place.

Luigi’s Pizza and Pasta in Shawano celebrated its 30th anniversary on Dec. 26.

She’s only 19 years old, but Charli Ritter has already made some big decisions in her life.

One of them included purchasing a building and opening her own business.

Three months after she first opened the doors to Mountain Ground at 13960 State Highway 32 in Mountain, Ritter is convinced she made the right move and is looking forward to a busy summer with plenty of tourists.

Honey Soul Collectives Co., located at 144 S. Main St. in downtown Shawano, opened its storefront business Sept. 27, 2025.

At Blazer’s Bar and Grill, located at N3189 County Road SS in rural Tigerton, owner Chelsea Wiszus and her staff have plenty of food and drink on hand — with hot, homemade daily specials offered to customers, offsetting cold winter days.

With a heart to serve, Wiszus has been in the restaurant industry ever since she was 15 years old, as her first job was waitressing at Prime Time in Marion.

Goodbye, The Flower Shoppe, and hello, Northern Roots.

Not only does the Oconto Falls floral and gift store at 224 N. Main St. have a new name, it has a new owner as well.

That new owner is Lori Fournier, who recently purchased the business from Melanie and Matt Rice. Fournier is no stranger to the business, as she worked at The Flower Shoppe for 18 years.

Cruisers Yachts announced the launch of the all-new 50 FLY, the newest addition to its FLY series. Building on the success of the 57 FLY, the 50 FLY brings big-boat features, refined design and long-range livability to an owner-operator-friendly size.
