AGP Executive Report

Last update: 9 hours ago

Tourism Boom: Gov. Tony Evers says Wisconsin hit a record $27B tourism economic impact in 2025 for the fourth straight year, with nearly 118M visits and $1.7B+ in state and local revenue. Outdoor & Conservation: The Wisconsin DNR is rolling out Invasive Species Awareness Weekend (June 20-21) with more than 30 events statewide, from workshops to guided hikes and volunteer fieldwork. Forest Policy Watch: A federal push could repeal Wisconsin’s “roadless rule” protections in the Chequamegon-Nicolet National Forest, with critics warning it won’t meaningfully reduce wildfire risk. Travel Ideas for Families: A Journal Sentinel reader poll crowns Peninsula State Park as Wisconsin’s top campground overall, plus top pick for tenting. Local Color & Culture: La Crosse’s Mississippi River history and Pepin’s Laura Ingalls Wilder “Big Woods” legacy keep drawing visitors, while a new “Airing of the Quilts” event adds another reason to plan a summer stop in Caledonia. Unique Stays: A historic silo in Lincolnton is now an Airbnb—an unusual lodging option for travelers looking for something different.
