Donna Nickel, the Sawyer County Record's lake columnist for the Spider Lake News, has penned her last column for the newspaper.
Nickel, a Cleveland native, has been writing the column — "leaving her unique stamp of whimsy, humor and insight on a column devoted to community news, stories, events, weather, anniversaries and birthdays" — since Jan. 8, 2014. During the last eight years, it has developed a devoted following.
Mike Johnson, sports editor for the Kenosha News since 2018, announced in his farewell column Sunday that he will be leaving the newspaper.
Johnson joined the Kenosha News as a sports reporter in 2004, shortly after graduting from the University of Wisconsin-Madison, where he worked at the Badger Herald student newspaper. At the News, he covered countless high school regional and sectional games, and many state championships — as well as the NFC Championship Game that turned out to be Brett Favre’s last as a Green Bay Packer.
Alexandra Steussy-Williams, former assistant editor for Lee Enterprises' Madison based Agri-View, is the new Natural Resources Communications Specialist with University of Wisconsin-Extension, the newspaper reports.

After the work inspired her to dive into the confluence of conservation and agriculture, she left the newspaper to pursue a master’s degree in agroecology at UW-Madison. In her new role she works specifically on Grassland 2.0, a collaboration of farmers, academics, Extension professionals and others who work to develop pathways for farmers to increase profits, yields, and efficiency.

A new Wisconsin Policy Forum analysis finds areas for potential economic improvement in Kenosha County that local policymakers and business and civic leaders may wish to consider.
As Outagamie County district attorney, Vince Biskupic let potential defendants buy their way out of trouble. As a judge, he offered deals that fell in a ‘gray area’ of the law.
Statistically speaking, the roads in Scotland are much safer than in Wisconsin. But it didn’t quite feel that way for Chris Hardie and his wife during a recent trip abroad.
Asked if he would consider someone for the post who believes the last presidential election was fraudulent, Vos said he wants his new appointee to concentrate on a “fair election in 2022” who’s not going to “focus on 2020 and backward.”
