Westby marked Syttende Mai with a 103 unit parade watched by more than 4 000 people. The Sons of Norway float from Appleton led Vikings to the crowds while a clown entertained. The evening tractor pull was canceled and the flea market moved indoors, with “A Taste of Norway” slated at the high school.

Hidden subterranean lifelines of La Crosse revealed
City utilities lie underground supplying water gas electricity and communication. Knudson notes tangled mains from early 1900s and depth patterns vary to avoid sewer lines. Haugstad cites 171 miles of sanitary sewers and 163.64 miles of water lines with pipes ranging 6 to 24 inches. Access via manholes helps locate stoppages and resolve clashes with other pipes.
