Good morning, Green Bay.
🏘️ Community

The ride raised over twenty thousand dollars for the cause.
Yesterday, Dec. 13, runners and walkers in Green Bay joined the inaugural Run Run Rudolph Fun Run, donning reindeer antlers and being cheered on by Santa Claus (a nod to the season).
🎭 Culture
The 144-year-old schooner Jennibel, which sank after a gale in 1881 near Chambers Island, was added to the Wisconsin State Register of Historic Places on Dec.
11 (it is Door County’s 33rd registered shipwreck); divers must not remove artifacts from the site.
Millions of LEGO blocks fill Bay Beach Wildlife Sanctuary as local community members display winter holiday scenes built by FOXLUG.
The event continues today from 10:00 a.m. to 3:00 p.m. featuring builds like LEGO ice skaters and holiday parade displays.
