Editor’s note: WhitewaterWise and Fort Atkinson Online, with help from a poem, titled: “Labor Day,” by Ron “RadioRon” Stelse, wish our readers a happy Labor Day.
Labor Day
The auto repair man
and the firemen across the street
the watchful eyes of the police
when they’re on their daily and nightly beat.
The moms and dads raising their kids
the roadcrew fixing your street
the roof man shingling your house
the furnace expert who brings you heat.
The technician fixing a jet plane
the farmer who plows his field
the little boy picking apples
and a politician who had a bad law repealed.
The cowboy bringing the cattle home
The fishing crew headed for sea
add up these hard workers
they are in fact working for you and me.
Workers, on Saturday, Aug. 24, prepare a blacktop parking area for patrons of the ALDI store in Whitewater. Information shared on the city of Whitewater’s Facebook page in July notes that the store “is set to open” sometime this fall. Update: Whitewater city officials announced on their Facebook page Tuesday that ALDI will open Thursday, Sept. 19. A ribbon-cutting ceremony will be held at 8:50 a.m. Contributed photo.
