I have had the privilege of meeting many of you; whether it was a brief conversation, or an ongoing observation over the course of the year, these are my picks for those people who made things happen in Muskego.
I'm humbled whenever I consider the position I have. I get to tell your stories, whether it's crime, fire, personal triumph, or even just a fun weekend activity that brings a smile to kids' faces.

GOP frontrunner holds town hall meeting at InPro, which is believed to be the first time a presidential candidate has stopped in the city.
A surprise to many, Mitt Romney's stop in Muskego was seen by the city and the business that hosted him as quite an honor.
