The Waupaca Area Public Library is inviting the community to get up close with some of Wisconsin’s most fascinating birds of prey. Tomorrow at 1:30 p.m., the library will host a Raptor Education Show featuring wildlife educators and live avian ambassadors from Raptor Education Group Incorporated, or REGI. The interactive program will take place in the library’s downstairs meeting rooms and will focus on common, but rarely seen, raptors found across Wisconsin. The City of Waupaca is preparing to open its new Waupaca Business Center, a community hub designed to support entrepreneurs, remote workers, and small businesses. Located as part of the Recreation Center expansion, the facility will feature business suites, conference rooms, telehealth spaces, and high-speed internet access. City officials say the center is expected to open later this summer, helping foster economic growth and career development throughout the community.  More details and a survey are available on the city’s website, cityofwaupaca.org. Finally, Friends of Waupaca Parks is now seeking vendors for this year’s Fall-O-Rama fundraiser. The event is scheduled for Saturday, September 19th from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. at South Park, with the Waupaca Recreation Center serving as the backup location in case of bad weather. Organizers are inviting crafters and direct sales vendors with family-friendly products. Early registration pricing is available through August 17th, with vendor registration closing September 4th.
