STURTEVANT - Racine County officials on Wednesday confirmed the location of the massive Foxconn factory that someday could employ thousands.
The sprawling industrial complex, covering 20 million square feet and by far the largest industrial complex in the state, will be located off I-94 between Highway 11 and Highway KR, officials said at a news conference. The exact location will be in the far southwest corner of the Village of Mount Pleasant on 1,198 acres in a section bounded by I-94 on the west, Highway KR on the south, Highway H on the east and Braun Road on the north.

Congratulations Gov Walker
Let’s celebrate, go buy a Kringle.
Pecan is my fav, I will pick one up today.
Maybe it’s good that I don’t live near there now.
Pecan is our favorite also, when I am in the area, I clean Woodmans out of Pecan.
I didn’t even know what a Kringle was———so I just looked it up.
I want a raspberry one.:-)

Racine Kringles has a turtle kringle that’s pretty good. The almond is good too.
WINNING!
One can get them online, if you are interested. They are more expensive that way.
They are very good and I would recommend them, pecan is hard to beat.
Thanks-—do you know a good bakery for them?
