This is what education looks like for us. Kids who see where food comes from, how work is done, and what responsibility actually requires.

You can teach kids about life, or let them live near it.

The Greater Onalaska Heritage Society’s 7th Annual Cow Plop Bingo is in the books for 2024! We appreciate everyone’s participation. The donations will go to rebuilding the back porch roof of the 1904 Heritage House, 400 S 356, next door to the Onalaska City Hall.
Lucy May (the cow) came prancing out of her private pen and into the small arena, so the viewers could see her. She put on a good show, prancing, going from side to side, never even pretending to do what she was there to do. After 30 minutes with no p**p, she went back inside.
Sally (another cow) was happy to come help us out!
She bounced into the arena, within 1 minute she did what she was there to do.
I really believe I saw a little smile on her face as she turned around and walked back inside her pen.
CONGRATULATIONS TO THE WINNERS!!
Lauren Hodge. $700
Kathy Fresquez $100
Herman Barnett $100
Angelia Kennedy $100
Ronnie Vincent $100 donated his back
We will do this all over again next year!!!
