Who or what is behind the names we see around Rice Lake? Join us to hear Nicole speak about her study of Rice Lake’s history!
Muschinske’s quest to learn the ‘who’s who’ of historical Rice Lake, such as Knapp and Stout, became interwoven with her pursuit of history and environmental knowledge at UW-Madison’s Nelson Institute for Environmental Studies, where she is studying the relationships between people and the land throughout time.
