" Hi, I am a 1991 graduate of West Salem High School. My unit from Fort Campbell is currently deployed to Iraq. If anyone would like to support or sponsor a soldier the address is: " Hi, my name is Manley Hewitt and I live in Ontario, Canada. For the past 15 years I have been collecting promotional items from Cities and Towns that I have visited throughout North America. These promotional items include any item that the city or town were giving away to promote tourism or pride in their community. Six years ago I became disabled and it has made travel almost impossible at least as far as any distance goes. I have found a fabulous way to visit some cities and towns via the internet and this has helped me to pass some time and to continue my collecting. I have visited your home page on the net and was wondering if your town had a promotional item that you could send me to add to my collection. My collection mostly consists of lapel pins but any item with your towns name on it would be a welcome addition to my collection.Please find my postal address below Thank you very much in advance for taking the time to read this email. " " Dear Bob, Thank you for your wonderful Web site! I found it through www.search.com. I was searching my own name and your site came up. I am the son of Dennis Brudahl (Long Coulee Cemetery). Many of my relatives are buried in Long Coulee, and some are at Halfway Creek. You must have invested hundreds of hours researching and entering data, and I thought I'd let you know that your efforts are appreciated! Thanks! " " Quite a nice Web site, and good info on the Hamlin Garland House, who and which interest me a lot. But ... no info as to the days and hours it is open for visiting, that I can see. We stopped by there one Sunday a year ago May and it was not open. We are thinking of taking a drive there tomorrow (Sunday, July 9), but only if it is open, of course. Can you please tell me the visiting hours? " "Hello, I have a question for you. I am going to be moving from Madison to West Salem in the next couple of weeks and I was wondering if you could email me the numbers of the telephone, power, and gas companies, or if you could email me the phone number of who to call to get these phone numbers I would really appreciate it. Thank you for your help. " "Hello, My name is Nick Wagner. I am a senior at UW-La Crosse and I'm interested in some of the issues that West Salem faces in the upcoming years as a smaller sized community in Wisconsin. I am seeking out this information out for a class called Urban Administration. The Professor teaching the course is West Salem's own Pam Rodgers. Any information you could give me concerning West Salem and its future would be greatly appreciated. " "I would like to know if there is a Web site for your youth hockey organization. Please let me know the name if there is one and if there isn't one. We were at the hockey rink on Saturday and it seems to me that there was a sign posted with the Web site on it. Thanks! " "I am looking into planning a 70th birthday party/picnic for my mother, a resident of West Salem. I realize that the Vets Park shelters book up very quickly and wanted to find out if the Village Park has a shelter available and whom to contact. If you can lead me towards the right person it would truly be appreciated. I am in the Minneapolis area and would rather not ask my mother at this time for the necessary info. Thanks for your help. I have to tell you too that I am really impressed by the web site. I hope you get alot of compliments! It's amazing. " "Hi, I'm moving to W[est] Salem in December and I was looking at your site. It's great! What I was wondering is how much money has been raised for the new library? How long does it look like before it'll be built? Thank you! Sue " "Do you know if the schools have any plans to put more information on their site? I have a high-schooler now and get no info from him. I need information on such things as - are there parent/teacher conferences coming up - if so - when. What clubs are available at school - what is their purpose and when do they meet. Upcoming meetings, such as meetings for winter athletics - found out there was a meeting after it already occurred. Would be great if they could put this info on the Internet - do you know if they have any plans to do this? Thanks. " "Hello: I am glad I found your site! I hope you can help me. Charles Craig and family lived in your area late 1940's until - ??. [They] had [one] daughter Mary Craigo Stapleton. Husband Frank Stapleton was in the Navy. Two daughters born 1945 to 1949-Connie and Cathy, possible 1 son-Clifford Wagen. I would appreciate any information on children's addresses or Craigo Stapleton Family! Please e-mail or call, 910-468-4697 " "My army reserve unit did our annual training at Ft. McCoy. I had an opportunity to ride the La Crosse River Trail and stop in your town. We did not get to visit your city very long but I hope to return with my wife and some friends. Businesses made those of us riding bicycles feel welcomed at their establishments. It was good to be in a town where everyone was so friendly. Eddie " "This is a great web site. Although I get back to West Salem quite frequently, as my family is still living there, its great to be able to check out my hometown on the web. As an amateur genealogist I really appreciate Bob Selebrede's work on the cemeteries. Keep up the good work. " "Hi, Just came upon your site tonite--actually our son who now lives in Yuma, AZ found it and let us know. We used to live in the area--from 1973-1977. We lived in Drectrah Coulee and our kids went to school in West Salem. We enjoyed the area very much--it truly is "God's Country?" The site is excellent and we will check back often to keep up on the area. " "Hi, can you please send me an address where I could possibly get info on Camp Neshonoc? I heard many great things about your area. My e-mail address is jennd22@yahoo.com and my home address is Jennifer Dierksmeier, 152 Harvey Lane, Lake Mills, WI 53551. Thank you for your time " "Hi there, this is David Gardner. If you graduated this year you might remember me. I moved to Green Bay in 4th grade. Congrats to all that graduated. Including Jeremy J., Scott K., Jay B., Ben S., Dave A., Nick E., Jeremy F., Jake V., Katie C., Heather B., Courtney I., Kourtney O., and Amy S. I joined the Army but was medically discharged due to a hyperextended left arm. I hope to come visit you all again this summer. Dave " "I don't have a comment. I am looking for the web address for Neshonoc Campground. I know I have found an actual site with their picture and etc on it before. More than I see here. Do you know what their web address is and if so could you please email me the address? Also we just moved here from West Salem in December and we loved the town and miss it very much!!!!! " "Hello, my name is Pat McCormick and my wife and I are going to be relocating to the La Crosse area in August. I was searching the area for housing and found your web site. It is very informative and put together nicely. We are coming up on a house hunting trip and have a few house in West Salem on our list to look at. I will be working in La Crosse, downtown and was curious about the commute. My wife asked me to find out how far a drive it would be. Your web site gave me the informatio right on the first page; 12 miles. I am interested on what type of access to the Internet folks in West Salem have from the residents. I am currently a subscriber to AOL but that is flexible. Could you answer a couple of questions for me? Is the Internet access a local number or do you have to dial toll? Also, who is the local telephone provider in West Salem? I thank you very much if you can answer those two questions " "Hello, Would you kindly inform me of the days and hours of operation for the Garland homestead? I'm planning a trip next week in your area and would like to visit. Thanks very much. "
