Green Bay Girls Who Walk

Hi! My annual post encouraging women in the area to join our social walking group as the weather gets nicer.

GRB GIRLS WHO WALK

We’ve been around since July ‘24, and offer a wide variety of walks and social events. This past winter we continued our meetups through winter, although many events were indoors.

95% of events are free and it’s an excellent way to meet other women in their 20s-30s. Sometimes our events have a nominal registration fee to cover ticketing. Many of our regulars are remote workers and transplants who want to make friends and build community.

About the name: some people last year commented disliking the name saying it reminded them of s*x workers - it’s a national name that we use locally for our chapter. 🤷🏻‍♀️We chose it for brand recognition, I’m sorry if it is off-putting to some.

We are not on FB or Instagram (long story - there was a post about it on here last summer), but you can follow us on TikTok, Bumble BFF, or join our email list / follow our website. All links on our website linked above.

💛

Speeding threshold

In about a year, I’ll be moving to Appleton from New York. In most places around where I currently live, you can comfortably do 5 over and sometimes stretch it to 10 before you even have to worry about getting pulled over. Is there a big difference in WI?

Hi,
we’re four guys, and we’ve put together Westminster’s restaurant scene in an app called Vota. The concept is simple: you see two places side by side (for example Famille vs. Kachina Southwestern Grill), you choose the place you’d rather go to, and the ranking updates instantly. The more people vote, the more accurate the list gets over time. There are still a few duplicates here and there, but I’m continuously cleaning up the data.

Here’s the iPhone version, with categories that actually fit Westminster’s food scene:

And here’s the Android version (finally live):
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=org.vota.app

P.S. I’m not from Westminster (I live in Gothenburg). I’m not collecting data, not selling anything, and the app does not use AI-generated content. I’m posting in a few different subreddits because we now support more regions, and I genuinely want honest feedback from people who actually know the area.

Moving to the area

Hi! My husband and I are looking to relocate from Cape Coral, FL to Appleton. I’m originally from the Dane county area, and he’s from Iowa so we’re familiar with Midwest living generally speaking. But we’ve never really been to Appleton, apart from the mall and Penzys. We’re looking to rent, either apartment or house or duplex type home.

Are there any apartments should we steer clear of? Either between management, neighbourhood in general, personal experiences, or just general knowledge. We’re thinking max budget $1500.

Any local belt makers

I was wanting a leather belt I went to look at the tailored hide but apparently they recently closed. Are there any other business in the area? I know hanks makes good stuff too but I like to shop local when I can.

Anyone local could help out?

Hey! I am home alone with my kiddos and am very stressed. I would greatly appreciate if anyone local to Appleton was out and about and would be willing and trusting enough to pick me up a 4 pod pack of 5% menthol for the Vuse vape. I have cash I would leave in my mail box where you could leave the pods. I know this needs lots of trust in humanity, lol, so I don't expect any real replies tonight, just throwing it out there. But I can't order from delivery, so I would always give a few $$ extra for anyone willing to message me and help a divorcing mama out!

Is anyone familiar with property managers or housing that accepts people who have prior charges/evictions in the area? Thanks!

Maternity clothing

Anyone know where one could find maternity clothing in the area? No stores in the mall have sections specific anymore/they were recently taken away.

Places to buy pride pins?

I know I could find someone’s Etsy shop, but I want to support a store nearby in-person. I’m mostly just looking to get a lesbian pride pin for my purse/outfits/work lanyard. :)

There was a store I went to downtown last year during MoM that had wonderful progressive/queer stickers that I bought, but I was drunk and forgot where/what the store is, lol.

Thx for reading!

EDIT: this post fits the sub and there’s nothing inherently wrong with it. Stop downvoting and posting troll comments because you don’t like gay people.

Found a cat! Need help

This amazing looking cat showed up in our garage yesterday (5-16). He/she seems friendly but is cautious to not come to us (of course and rightly so). They have eaten the food and treats we’ve given them which is good.

We live near George’s Steakhouse.

Does any one recognize this cat? We leave for a trip on Thursday and would love to find this cats owners.

Local motorcycle helmet painting?

I want to get one of my motorcycle helmets custom painted and was wondering if anyone knows a location that might be able to help with that? Maybe some custom print shops might be able to help?

thanks for any help!

Tree disposal in Appleton?

Hi! I cut down a small birch tree but the trunk is larger than 6in in diameter. Where can I dispose of it properly? The Outagamie county landfill guidelines say the tree remnants have to be smaller than 6in in diameter.

Thnx!
