Notable Events

[edit]

In late August of 2024 there was a break in at the Boston School Forest (BSF) in Plover, Wisconsin. The BSF is an environmental education site owned and operated by the Stevens Point Area School District. Students attend field trips to the BSF every year up to 10th grade to receive education relating to the natural world.[4] No individual or group of individuals have been charged in the break in to date. According to Portage County Sheriff, Mike Lucas, the damages to the property by the burglars were approximately valued at $4,000. The damages included the theft of archery bows and arrows, damage to living trees, building break-ins, sliced screens, and broken materials.[5]
