Escapetowisconsin.com
The Wisconsin Association of Convention and
Visitors Bureaus has revived a familiar slogan for its Web-based
directory targeting the leisure traveler: The site is at
escapetowisconsin.com.
It directs visitors to 29 member destination Web sites,
such as www.packercountry.com,
the Packer Country Regional Tourism offense. The site differs
from the state Department of Tourism's TravelWisconsin.com
by offering a limit on choices, aimed at busy vacationers.
Among the site's promotions: a revival of the familiar green
and yellow "Escape to Wisconsin" bumper stickers. They are
available at state visitor bureaus.
Appleton-based
Athenet adds Milwaukee
Appleton-based Athenet has bought the subscriber base of
Phoenix Internet Technologies, a Milwaukee-based Internet
service provider. Athenet is a locally-owned ISP covering
most of eastern and southern Wisconsin.
Mark Adam, Athenet's president said the move builds on a
long-term plan of becoming the largest locally-owned ISP
in Wisconsin. The company said it will have 20,000 clients
after the Milwaukee acquisition.
