Heat For Heroes

United States’ Military Veterans are among the least likely to come forward to ask for help in times of trouble, even when they find themselves facing life threatening situations.  Pride is often the principle barrier for Veterans in receiving this much needed assistance.  Recognizing this, in September, 2013, Energy Services, Inc. and the Keep Wisconsin Warm/Cool Fund launched its statewide Heat for Heroes Campaign! The Heat for Heroes Campaign is uniquely designed to avert life threatening energy related emergencies by helping struggling Veterans keep their heat and power on; while also providing adequate resource connections with other State, County and Veteran services for optimal, long-term household stability.

Phil Koch Photography

I created the series of Horizons in 2010 as photographic journey through the landscapes of Wisconsin.   I rarely shoot in the same location as the sun rises and find the meadows that most just drive by without a second thought as the best place to wait and watch.

Gibson Music Hall

Located in the historic Gibson building in the heart of downtown Appleton. In 1929, after a fire destroyed a tire store on the property,  the building was reborn as an automobile dealership and rebuilt in 1931 using classic “Machine Age” Art Deco style, as still seen today.  We are honored to a part of this great city and building’s history.  “We” are three humble hard working brothers from the Fox Valley with different backgrounds, coming together to create a haven for people to gather while enjoying great music in a friendly, relaxed atmosphere.  Whether you are a musician or are simply looking for a place to raise a glass with friends, GMH is here!  Join Us!
