A listening session with Assembly Speaker John Gard, R-Peshtigo, regarding the issues facing Wisconsin's dairy and agriculture industries will be held 1-2:30 p.m. Thursday at Tauscher Farms, 2118 County Road C, Green Bay.

Motorcycle safety summit set for Thursday
Motorcycle advocates and law enforcement officers will address Wisconsin's escalating motorcyclist highway fatality rate 10 a.m.-noon Thursday at Northeast Wisconsin Technical College, Room C 219, 2740 W. Mason St.

This year, at least 60 people have died in motorcycle crashes on Wisconsin roads. That's twice as many motorcycle fatalities as this time last year, and far greater than the five-year average.

Because of the urgency of this highway safety crisis, the Wisconsin Department of Transportation Bureau of Transportation Safety is bringing together members of the motorcycling community, law enforcement officers, highway and traffic engineers, emergency medical personnel and others, at this summit.
