2. Tainter books return ticket to State as Antigo finishes ninth at Sectionals (gazettextra.com) — Ashwaubenon won the Division 2 swimming sectional it hosted Saturday, finishing ahead of Pulaski with 345 points.

3. Make Room for Turkey: Trot, Jog or Stroll in Janesville Nov 26 (fox47.com) — Janesville's Festival Foods Turkey Trot starts at 8 a.m. Thanksgiving Day, November 26, with a timed five-mile run and untimed two-mile options. Dogs can join the two-mile Dog Jog. The accompanying Ashwaubenon photo is from 2017, not an announcement of a local race.
4. Green Bay and De Pere Leaf Trucks Collect Loose Piles From the Terrace Until Nov. 15, and Neither City Takes Bagged Leaves (newsbreak.com) — Ashwaubenon's leaf collection runs through Nov. 25, later than the Nov. 15 curbside deadline listed for Green Bay and De Pere. Rules vary by community: Green Bay and De Pere require loose leaves on the terrace rather than in bags, and weather can disrupt collection schedules.
