Wondering how many crimes against property were reported to the Shawano County Sheriff’s Department in 2025?

What about the number of sheriff’s department incidents responded to in the Town of Grant or the Town of Wescott?

Shawano Lake and its connecting waterways are so important to the local economy, residents and other users that when Shawano Area Waterways Management holds its annual golf outing, you can be sure the fundraiser will be well-attended.

Beautiful weather doesn’t hurt, either.

The 2026 golf outing was held at Golden Sands Golf Course in Cecil on June 9.

The last time the greens saw action was four years ago at what was then Shawano Sports Park. That changed earlier this month when Dusty and Stephanie Delorme opened Shawano Mini Golf, an 18-hole mini-golf course at 1056 E. Green Bay St.
