Message from State Representative Lisa Subeck
Hello neighbors,
If we have not yet had an opportunity to meet, I am Lisa Subeck, your Representative in the State Assembly. As we recently completed our legislative session, things have calmed down around the Capitol. Though we are no longer “in session,” I would like you to know that I am still here to answer your questions and to assist you. You can contact me by email at Rep.Subeck@legis.wisconsin.gov, or call my office at 608-266-7521.
I hope you have been enjoying the warmer weather as we spring into summer. With the weather getting warmer and the days getting longer, it is a great time to take advantage of any of our state parks, forests, trails, and recreational areas. Below, you will find some tips from the Department of Natural Resources to help make your recreation time more enjoyable.

Beach Tips
- Wisconsin has 56 miles of beaches along Lake Michigan and Lake Superior as well as inland lakes and rivers. To check beach advisories and water quality, you can visit www.wibeaches.us.
- When swimming, make sure you never swim alone, stay in designated swimming areas, spend some time outside the water in shaded areas, wear sunscreen SPF 30 or higher, and avoid swimming after a heavy rain.
- Make sure to shower after swimming, wash your hands before eating, and don’t swallow the water.
Camping Tips
- There are more than 4,900 campsites in the Wisconsin State Park System. Reservations can be made online at www.dnr.wi.gov or by calling 1-888-947-2757.
- Notify others of where you will be, and when you plan to be home, in case someone needs to find you.
- Prevent animals from getting into your food. Place food containers in your vehicle or hang it in a tree (12' high, 4' from tree trunk).
- Don’t move firewood! Check the Firewood in Wisconsin map on the DNR’s website to check by county where it is legal and illegal to move firewood. Firewood purchased from a WI certified dealer is always legal to move because it is processed to eliminate harmful pests and fungi.
