DRØSET: Welcome you tourists some are here. This is the last deal of this years summer series of tourist guides to Stavanger, and today we shall see closer on Viking Stadium.
On a sign just off the highway entering the town of Wahkon during the month of November was this tribute: âThank you Chris W. for 24 yrs.â
Most of the 206 residents who populate this small town on Mille Lacsâ south-east shores are familiar with Chris W., but for those who are not, he is Chris Weinreich, a 62-year old man who has served his adopted home town as its head maintenance person for nearly a quarter century.
âYou might as well say he is our city engineer,â says longtime Wahkon City Clerk/Treasurer Karrie Roeschlein. âHe is a man who is a jack of all trades and is someone who has dedicated much of his life to making this a better place to live.â
