Good morning, La Crosse.

Araia Breedlove and Sister Sue Ernster discussed the historic return of the Marywood Spirituality Center—transferred for $30,000, the price paid in 1966—on La Crosse Talk this morning.

They said the reparations move addresses past harms from Catholic boarding schools and sets a model for similar actions.

Families burned calories at the annual Turkey Trot in Onalaska on Thanksgiving morning — hundreds of local participants joined the 18th race on Nov 27.

Tim Alberts, a La Crosse School Board member, is forming a new committee with city officials to address concerns over the North Side Community Pool needing nearly $1 million in repairs and the district’s lack of a competitive pool.

The group has met three times in an unofficial capacity and will soon add members—its work could lead to plans for a new indoor pool.
