The Lakes Edition was the first "where to go, what to do" guide for summer residents and visitors in the Lake Koshkonong area. Through the years, my family expanded the edition to include the areas surrounding Lake Ripley and Lake Kegonsa, Madison, Beloit, Janesville, Rock River, Whitewater Lake, Delavan, Sun Prairie, Monroe and Watertown.I work with local businesses to attract tourism business and build awareness for their product, service or location. Our goal is to drive local tourist dollars to local establishments to build growth and bring prosperity to the southern lakes region of Wisconsin.Any business who welcomes tourist traffic can benefit from advertising in the Lakes Edition published by the Edgerton Reporter. This includes restaurants, golf courses, retail establishments, area attractions, hotels, antique stores, gift shops, campgrounds, RV, boat and model home dealers, marinas, and fishing areas.Contact me at 608-884-8187 for a free copy of the Lakes Edition to see if advertising in this publication is right for your business.

I am the publisher and a major shareholder in the Edgerton Reporter, the local weekly newspaper co-owned with my mother. I've been directly involved in the management and operation of the newspaper since 1978. I became co-publisher of the Edgerton Reporter in 1992 after the death of my father, Harland."The most important thing a local newspaper can do is to get people to think. To react."
