Looking Through the Past: Window Makers of Marathon County

History Speaks at the Woodson History Center: Looking Through the Past: at Window Makers of Marathon County The original date turned out to be a snowy day not suited to travel, so the Marathon County Historical Society has rescheduled its first talk in the 2020 History Speaks at the Woodson History Center. “Looking Through the Past: at Window Makers of Marathon County” will be presented at 2 p.m. Saturday, February 1, 2020, at the Woodson History Center, 410 McIndoe St., Wausau. From simple sashes to complex curtainwall systems, the window has come a long way over the last century. Ben Clark will describe how the window companies of Marathon County have helped to drive the development of the industry, and quietly made Central Wisconsin the “window capital of the world.” Ben Clark is archivist at the Marathon County Historical Society. There is no admission fee; however, donations are appreciated. Registration is not required. The Historical Society is grateful to Janke Book Store and to Compass Properties for their sponsorship of the History Speaks series.
