On Saturday, August 3, Democratic Candidates for the 2024 Primary and General Election
will speak to voters at a free brat barbeque and potluck in Ojibwa Park, in Sawyer County,
Wisconsin, south east of Hayward (W7911 State Highway 70, Ojibwa, WI). Invited candidate
speakers include Tony Evers, Tammy Baldwin, Ben Wikler, Sarah Rodriguiz, US 7 th
Congressional District Kyle Kilbourn, WI 74 th Assembly Jeanne Bruce, Judge Monica Isham,
Judge candidate Susan Crawford, 7 th Congressional candidates, District 12 Senate candidate
Andi Rich, and 35 th Assembly candidate Elizabeth McCrank.
According to Nancy Stencil, Chair of the WI 7th Congressional District Democratic Party,
“The Heart of the 7th C.D. Picnic” has attracted almost every statewide candidate,
approximately 150 voters, and television news media from as far as the Twin Cities. The site
is always chosen because it is near the center of the vast 7th Congressional District, which
includes all or part of 26 counties. Chair Stencil noted, “Ojibwa Park’s old stone picnic
shelter and quiet Northwoods ambience makes this one of the most fun and relaxed campaign
events of the season. It’s a great way for voters in northern Wisconsin to hear and meet
candidates in an up close and personal way and most voters in the district can make the drive
in less than 2 hours.”
The event will take place ahead of the August 13, 2024 Partisan Primary. Candidates are
invited to set up and staff tables with yard signs and literature and visit with voters.
Festivities begin at 1pm with free bratwurst from Whiskey Ridge, and a potluck put on by the
Sawyer County Lac Court Oreilles Democratic Party and the 7th CD Democratic Party. The
public is encouraged to bring their own lawn chairs, bug spray, and beverages. Speakers will
start around 2:00 pm. Come early and enjoy the grounds.
