Doyle Makes Stops on Way to La Crosse

Gov. Doyle made the most of his trip to La Crosse today.

He first stopped at Camp Douglas on his way west to speak to the Wisconsin National Guard Leadership Conference and the opening of the U.S. Property and Fiscal Office at Volk Air National Guard Base.

While in LaCrosse, he handed out a $375,000 Transportation Economic Assistance grant for infrastructure to support a Kwik Trip plant expansion. The project is expected to create 166 jobs.

Doyle state spokesman Matt Canter said the governor's campaign would reimburse the state for part of the trip because it included political work.
