Good morning, Green Bay. Here's your local news at a glance for Wednesday, the 19th of March.

BUSINESS NEWS

  • Farm stores and hatcheries across Wisconsin are struggling to keep up with a surge in orders as calls flood in and shipments of baby chicks sell out in under two hours—customers and experts say it is a chance to lower egg costs but emphasize the need to check local rules before starting a flock. Experts warn that rising orders may lead to waitlists and that new buyers should confirm each municipality’s requirements for keeping chickens.  Green Bay Press-Gazette

CRIME NEWS

  • A Howard man, Tyquiwon Byrd, 23, was charged with attempted first-degree homicide—one count for shooting a man during a November drug deal and one count for attacking his girlfriend’s mother with a screwdriver in February—and he was booked into Brown County Jail on March 17 with bail set at $300,000 for each charge.  Green Bay Press-Gazette

CULTURE NEWS

  • The wreck of the Margaret A. Muir—a cargo schooner that sank in 1893 off Algoma—has been named a historic place by the Wisconsin Historical Society as of March 6. Maritime historians discovered the remains last year using sonar; the site is now protected under state and federal law.  Green Bay Press-Gazette

EDUCATION NEWS

  • At Monday night’s meeting, the school board approved a new strategic plan that sets clear goals for academics, student well-being and staff development over the next five years and confirmed the existing mission and vision statements. It also approved a land swap agreement with the city that exchanges property near several schools — giving the board 9 months of exclusive negotiating rights on two sites and including demolition costs from a past referendum.  94.3 Jack FM

  • Early voting for the Wisconsin Spring election begins today at City Hall from 8:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. Additional voting hours will be available at City Hall through March 27 and voters in other northeast Wisconsin communities should check with their local clerk's office for in-person absentee voting times.  NBC 26
  • Green Bay will host the NFL Draft next month with about 240,000 people expected, and city officials say more than $1 million in public safety costs will add to local taxpayer expenses. County and state leaders are finalizing funding plans—each set to share part of the cost while the event is expected to boost the region.  94.3 Jack FM

SPORTS NEWS

  • AJ Dillon thanked the Green Bay community in an Instagram post Monday before leaving for the East Coast after signing a one-year contract with the Philadelphia Eagles—he said Wisconsin had become home and expressed gratitude for the support he received since joining the Packers in 2020. The 25-year-old running back will start a new chapter while forever remembering his time with the team.  WBAY
