New Neighbors, Great Tips, and a Celebrity!

Greetings from the Welcome New Neighbor Program of Shorewood, WI! It's been a fun-filled two weeks of Concerts in the Park and a fun time at Big Bay Brewing Co. last night. Guess which local Shorewood Celebrity came to see us? (answer at the end!)

Sign up for the Manager's Memo! Our Village Manager wants you to be in the know!
 
Did you Know? Every time we do a Reception with new folks, we learn something new about this 1.59 mile square Village. Last night, a couple from Brewer's Hill stopped in at the Brewing Co. and offered these two factoids:
1. We have the only Blockbuster for miles, which offers season combos for .99.
2. The Sendik's on Oakland (aka Shorewood Sendik's) is recommended by other grocers (Groppi's, another Sendik's) for having the only aged dried beef for miles.

Schedule
of Upcoming Free Meet 'n Greets (Free and Open to the Public - grab a new neighbor or come solo and meet new people). Rachel Vesco from the School District of Shorewood will be on hand to answer questions about registration, fees, online school features and upcoming events.

Celebrity! Miranda K Levy
Last night's New Neighbor Meet 'n Greet at Big Bay Brewing Co. had a celebrity couple! (not just the Village President, the Library Director, the Shorewood Connects Director, and the School District PR coordinator).   It was Shorewood's very own Miranda K Levy and beau Michael Adler. Miranda is a fierce contestant on the current season of Project Runway! Check out her Home Visit Presentation on the Show, which features Shorewood, WI!
