Monroe Chamber of Commerce: Welcome to Monroe, Wisconsin
A brief video showcasing the many talented people, opportunities, and benefits of living in Monroe Wisconsin, The Cheese Capital of the United States.
Green County - Welcome to SWISS-consin
Home to picturesque communities like New Glarus and Monroe, Green County is known for its cheese factories, breweries, and Swiss heritage. In this episode of Discover Wisconsin, hosts Mariah Haberman and Eric Paulsen learn about Green County's history when it comes to cheesemaking, and see firsthand how business owners and community members are carrying on traditions today. Among other things, we visit a 125-year-old tavern, taste a Limburger cheese sandwich, meet father and son master cheesemakers who are carrying on Swiss traditions, and attend one of the state's most anticipated events, Cheese Days. Visitors to Green County will love the Swiss-chalet style buildings, great shopping and authentic Swiss cuisine, but it's the welcoming spirit and hometown pride of Green County's communities that make it what it is - a uniquely Wisconsin destination that you are sure to love.

Baumgartner's in Monroe - donating a dollar to the ceiling
Along Highways 11, 59, 69 and 81, you'll find beautiful Monroe, known as Swisstown. The town square features the Green County Courthouse and, across the street, a great bar, restaurant and cheese shop known as Baumgartner's. One stop in there will not only yield great sandwiches, but also a lesson in how cool donating a dollar can be.
Around the Corner with John McGivern | Program | New Glarus (#805)
[Original Airdate: January 31, 2019]
It doesn’t take long to figure out the heritage of New Glarus. If the Swiss flags or the edelweiss at Brenda’s Blumenladen don’t give it away, the Alpine architecture and the brown Swiss cows all over town sure will! You know that people are proud when they name their organizations after the city. That’s just what New Glarus Brewing Company, New Glarus Welding, New Glarus Kinderchor and the New Glarus Hotel Restaurant did, which made them really easy for John to find. And he was happy to be “Swissified” by Chef Roland Furst, cultural expert Peter Etter and Swiss shop owner Esther Zgraggen. He was surprised when he was asked to milk the animals at the Voegeli and Lucky Dog farms, but at least he was good at it! John may never get to the original Glarus in Switzerland, but who cares? New Glarus is better anyway!

In Green County they say, “cheese is life!” And there is a lot of Swiss (cheese, people and cows!), but for you shoppers, there’s more for sale than just cheese. Need a robot, or a drive-in movie ticket, or some homemade soap, or how about some of the best food we’ve ever tasted?
For you animal lovers, Monroe offers more than cows. We found prehistoric sheep (for real!) and purple martins (we know – not an animal, a bird). And for those of you looking for a new hobby, you’ll be inspired by the mystery writer who doubles as the mayor, the town clown and more than 100 accordion players who accompany the Monroe City Band.
Without a doubt, Monroe has the best court house we’ve seen and the best yodeler we’ve ever heard, and the best Limburger John’s ever tasted (OK, it was his one and only taste, but he might eat more someday). No doubt: Monroe is a town that can stimulate all the senses!

Listening is a more natural way of learning, when compared to reading. Written language only began at around 3200 BC, but spoken language has existed long ago.
Learning by listening is a great way to:
- increases imagination and understanding
- improves your listening skills
- improves your own spoken accent
- learn while on the move
- reduce eye strain
Now learn the vast amount of general knowledge available on Wikipedia through audio (audio article). You could even learn subconsciously by playing the audio while you are sleeping! If you are planning to listen a lot, you could try using a bone conduction headphone, or a standard speaker instead of an earphone.

SUMMARY
=======
Wisconsin ( (listen)) is a U.S. state located in the north-central United States, in the Midwest and Great Lakes regions. It is bordered by Minnesota to the west, Iowa to the southwest, Illinois to the south, Lake Michigan to the east, Michigan to the northeast, and Lake Superior to the north. Wisconsin is the 23rd largest state by total area and the 20th most populous. The state capital is Madison, and its largest city is Milwaukee, which is located on the western shore of Lake Michigan. The state is divided into 72 counties.
Wisconsin's geography is diverse, having been greatly impacted by glaciers during the Ice Age with the exception of the Driftless Area. The Northern Highland and Western Upland along with a part of the Central Plain occupies the western part of the state, with lowlands stretching to the shore of Lake Michigan. Wisconsin is second to Michigan in the length of its Great Lakes coastline.
During the 19th and early 20th centuries, a large number of European settlers entered the state, many of whom emigrated from Germany and Scandinavia. Like neighboring Minnesota, the state remains a center of German American and Scandinavian American culture.
Wisconsin is known as America's Dairyland because it is one of the nation's leading dairy producers, particularly famous for its cheese. Manufacturing, especially paper products, information technology (IT), cranberries, ginseng and tourism are also major contributors to the state's economy.
