| The people of Wausau, Wisc., are proud of
their community. As the last city before the great
Northwoods, this metro area is the retail,
commercial and cultural hub for north and central
Wisconsin. Wausau leads the nation in per capita
giving to the arts and is home to many prestigious
philanthropic organizations. The city is also home
to the oldest annual Blues Festival in the state, the
Festival of Fine Arts, a Renaissance Faire, and a
strong, stable employment base.
City Pages was created in 1993 in response to a
cry for an alternative source of local news. Public
response was immediate and overwhelming. City
Pages' circulation and advertising revenue
continue to grow each year. Circulation recently
surpassed the daily's metro numbers. Our weekly
news coverage always includes in-depth articles
on local and regional topics, challenging some
conventional wisdom, yet reflecting the energetic,
artful and sometimes quirky character of this
growing town. From politics to progress to
entertainment, no other media feels the pulse of
the community like City Pages. |
