Wausau Pilot & Review Open Search

Wausau could see as many as 100 new refugees resettling in the city beginning in October if a federal agency reviewing the resettlement gives final approval for the plan.
The proposal was submitted by Arlington, Virginia-based Ethiopian Community Development Council, one of nine refugee resettlement agencies nationwide. The U.S. State Department Bureau of Population, Refugees and Migration is reviewing the proposal. If approved, which officials say is a likelihood, the first batch of new refugees could arrive late this or early next year. State Department officials did not have a comment by press time.

WAUSAU, WI (WSAU) â A new version of an old favorite returns to Central Wisconsin this weekend.
The inaugural Taste âN Glow Balloon Fest is set for this weekend, July 9th through the 11th at the Trailmates Snowmobile Club grass drag in the Town of Stettin. The event was put together by local hot air balloon enthusiasts after Wausau Events canceled its âBalloon and Rib Festâ for the second time in two years, citing the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic.
Two of the driving forces behind the event have been Steve and Nancy Woller, who have been planning it since February of 2021. While the event will feature some old favorites from the previous version like balloon rides and a couple of rib vendors, Balloonmister Steve Woller says the event has a very different feel.
