AMA: Ask your Badgers-related questions
The Wisconsin Badgers had an impressive month of June, hitting the recruiting trail hard to land a majority of their 2025 recruits throughout their official visit weekends.
While the buzz has simmered recently with most of the targets now off the board, either to Wisconsin or other schools, there are still a few recruits out there that the Badgers are vying for to add to their 2025 class.
On the basketball side, the Badgers recently offered 2025 four-star forward Amari Allen, who is a native of Kaukauna, Wisconsin, but plays at powerhouse IMG Academy.
He joins a group of targets that Wisconsin is pursuing in the 2025 class to add to commits Zach Kinziger and Will Garlock.
Every week, I’m looking to do an AMA session, where everyone can ask whatever questions they have about the Badgers in the comments, and I’ll answer each and every one over the next 24 hours.

MADISON, Wis. (WMTV) – Sugar River Emergency Medical Services (EMS) received a $20,000 grant from Only in Wisconsin Giving on Thursday.
“This is an exciting time both for our region and state, and a real ability to show what happens when communities work together,” Sugar River EMS Chief Chris Backes said. “We think what we’ve built in partnership here is a model for what’s possible to improve rural emergency medical care.”
Only in Wisconsin Giving is the philanthropic area of the New Glarus Brewing Company.
The grant will help the department purchase a new cardiac monitor defibrillator for a brand-new ambulance that will be in use this summer.
“Only in Wisconsin Giving has taken great pride in providing grants to all the first responders in our area for many, many years,” President of Only in Wisconsin Giving Scott May said. “From police and EMS, to the volunteer firefighters in our area, ensuring folks in rural areas are covered is something that is very important to us.”
Sugar River EMS is a collaboration between seven municipalities serving over 10,000 people in northern Green and Dane Counties.

A Safe Haven Baby Box has been purchased for Wisconsin Rapids. The next step is choosing the best alarm system for the project before it can be installed.
WISCONSIN RAPIDS − The city is close to having a Safe Haven Baby Box installed to help protect babies who are unwanted or unable to be cared for by their parents.
Volunteers have raised $35,000 for the Safe Haven Baby Box project and spent about $17,000 to pay for the box. The remainder will help to cover the cost of an alarm system and installation of the box in Wisconsin Rapids’ Fire Station 2, 1641 W. Grand Ave.
Safe Haven Baby Boxes are secure, temperature-controlled, ventilated boxes that provide a place to anonymously put a newborn baby the mother can not or does not want to keep.
The project currently is waiting on the selection of an alarm system, said Linda Casper, who has led the efforts to get a Baby Box. Wisconsin Rapids Fire Chief Benjamin Goodreau is researching what system would be the best and most cost effective, Casper said. The alarm will alert the Wood County Communications Center when the box is opened. A delayed alarm then sounds after the baby is placed in the box and it is closed. The second alarm is delayed to allow the person dropping off the baby time to leave the area, Casper said.
Casper said she learned about the Baby Box when she was reading a newsletter from a state organization she and her husband belong to and found an article about the Safe Haven Baby Box. Casper thought it was a good idea for Wisconsin Rapids and contacted Wisconsin Rapids City Council member Jeff Penzkover about it. After discussions about a location that would work for the Baby Box, it was decided to place it at Wisconsin Rapids Fire Station 2.
Once the alarm system is chosen, Altmann Construction will begin the process of installing the box, Casper said. The installation will require removing bricks from the outside wall of the fire station. Before the box can be put into service, the firefighters and some members of the Wood County Sheriff’s Office will have to be trained on the correct protocols for handling a baby being left in the box, Casper said. Fire Department administration also will have to adjust the protocols to fit the department, she said.
Since the efforts to get a Baby Box in Wisconsin Rapids have become known, Casper has been getting phone calls from people in other communities, including Marshfield and Wausau, who want to know how she got the project going.
How you can help
Although the initial cost of the Baby Box is covered, Casper and the other people who have worked to bring the lifesaving device to Wisconsin Rapids still are working on raising more money. The box will need to be inspected each year by Safe Haven and the alarm system will have a monthly fee, Casper said. She hopes to raise enough to cover the costs for years to come.
People interested in helping can send donations to: Sts. Peter and Paul Catholic Church, 1150 Second St. N., Wisconsin Rapids, WI 54494. Please put “SHBB,” for Safe Haven Baby Box, on the memo line so church staff know where the money should go.
