Marathon County Historical Society presents History Speaks – Stevens Point and Wausau: Sister Cities of the Pinery

Our September History Speaks program will be presented by John Harry, discussing the connection between Wausau and Stevens Point and how George Stevens brought the two communities together through the early logging industry.

George Stevens, Point Brewery, and UW-Stevens Point all have connections to their northern neighbors that run deep in camaraderie, and sometimes, in fierce competition.
