Beaver Dam Daily Citizen: Dodge County products vie for “Coolest Thing Made in Wisconsin” title

MAYVILLE – Two Dodge County manufacturers have placed in the top 16 of the “Coolest Thing Made in Wisconsin” contest.

More than 18,000 votes were cast in the first round of the competition, whittling down the field from 150 products to 16.
