The staff is one of the most friendly and knowledgeable staff I have ever seen at a library. They have special events all the time and send out emails on a regular basis with what events are going on. They have great hours and its a great place to hang out if you need a quiet place to sit and think and get out of the hustle and bustle of everyday life.

I'm so glad I'm not the only one who thinks of this park as one of the many wonderful things about…read moreAppleton! This park has a fountain with a big statue of children frolicking around inside of it. There are plenty of picnic tables as well as tons of green space and trees, which are perfect for shade in the hotter months. There is also a playground that is perfect for kids and adults (there were certainly a few times that my college friends and I would venture onto the playground and swing on the swings). This park is just the epitome of Appleton. Even though this place is pretty big, it really has that sort of friendly, mid-west small town feel to it. When I've gone to this park to relax reading a book in the sunshine, I've always heard the laughter of children playing, people walking dogs, strolling, etc. It's so idyllic. If you're looking for a place to bring your kids, or to walk, or have a picnic, this is the place to go!

What a great service for local Appleton residents and awesome way to support the environment!…read more The City of Appleton is producing compost from what were previously considered to be "city waste products." These ingredients include: leaves, brush and biosolids from the Appleton Wastewater Treatment Plant. Over time, the composting process converts these ingredients into a nutrient rich material - perfect for feeding your garden! Rest assured: the compost has been certified by the United States Composting Council's Seal of Testing Assurance program. Keep your eyes open for residential giveaways and program promotions on the compost webpage on the City of Appleton website: www.appleton.org. This year the city has given away free trees and hosted free recycle days of unwanted household electronics (no disposal fee). After looking at prices for dirt at Menards to fill our garden bed (2.5 cubic yards adds up quickly!), I was glad that a fellow gardner told us about FREE black dirt and mulch available at the Appleton Yard Waste Site. Fear not: the compost soil did not have a smell. Our plants LOVED the compost soil and the mulch kept the garden bed from drying out.

This is my favorite place. As avid gardeners my husband and I love the free dirt and mulch. With 6…read moreflower beds and 4 vegetable gardens it sure saves money! Great place to get rid of those old flags that look like heck and other yard waste.

It smells bad in here, like a nursing home or worse. I also wish they had a bigger sign by the road, it wasn't very noticeable. Service: It was a bit of a wait to get called, about 25-30 min. The people that actually helped me get through my name change were fast and organized. I got my new social security card within 5 business days in the mail and I was pretty dang happy about that.

This library boasts a large collection of materials, as well as many useful community resources. The librarians are always courteous and helpful. I have seen them answer all sorts of questions without missing a beat, and they seem genuinely dedicated to helping others. There always seems to be some kind of activity going on during the week, and they especially have many activities for kids - concerts, magicians, movie nights, etc. They have multiple self-checkouts, so you never have to wait long (usually not at all!) to check out your items. It has a Keurig, sells snacks, and usually has a puzzle or coloring pages out to enjoy. It also has conference rooms that you can reserve if you want some more privacy while working or want to have a meeting there. As much as I love this library, there are some downfalls. First, the parking situation is kind of a mess - there simply isn't enough of it for how busy the library is. Secondly, because it usually is busy, it can be hard to find an open table at times and enjoy a quiet atmosphere. Because it has an open layout, you can often hear children screaming/crying if you are upstairs in the "adult" section. If you think about it, these "downfalls" only prove how popular this place is. Overall, this library is great!

My favorite place to do work, hang out and write. Always able to find a quiet spot by the window.read more

I ship all over the world with no issue except to this small post office in Sherwood Wisconsin…read more The postal lady is a nightmare to deal with. I have mailed at least 12 packages to this place to process through to a customer and every time they either have postage due or errors she finds. The odd thing is. They all meet every detail on the DMM (postal codes). We write notes on the packages saying. This is per DMM please deliver. I am curious how much money is pocketed with postage due when in facet there is no postage due. This lady (Anne) needs to be looked into. I will mail a packaged thick enough to be a package and she will say it is not thick enough. I will send a package through commercial based packing rates (up to a pound) and it will be 14 ounces and she will say it can't go first class (yes it can. Retail only goes up to 13 ounces, commercial to a pound) If a package is to thin to go as a first class package she bumps it up to priority and has postage due of 4 to six dollars? I have in fact gone to four different post offices locally to Ask them if each of these packages are packaged correctly (I get a supervisor and tell them the issues in Sherwood). Each one meets DMM and then when they arrive in Sherwood she marks as postage due? Avoid this post office. USPS needs to look into where all this extra money is going that is being collected?

If you expect this post office to ignore postal charges, don't. If postage is correct everything goes through as planned.

I got in, didn't have the customs papers filled out because the online version was being difficult and it was my first time doing it so I was all nervous I was doing it wrong. Brenda helped me out so much. She explained how to fill the papers out and even made me feel better about being a little scattered. It's been tough with him gone and her presence and jokes really made me feel better and had me belly laughing for the first time since he left. I hope I see her again when I drop off his Thanksgiving package. Thank you Brenda, I really appreciate you! Give her a raise. :)

Can I get in and out in less than half an hour? Will you mail my package with a minimum of inarticulate snarling at me? Will you not hoot and holler with your buddies in the back while ignoring the ten person deep line forming in front of you? Given that, I've been totally blown away by the service at this location. I don't think I've ever waited more than 5 minutes, they almost always have 2 windows open, and mailing a package has been practically painless. Plus, the employees are actually friendly! Like, say hello, ask how you are, and actually sound like they care level of friendly. I mean, I now actually don't mind running down to the post office to mail something, where previously I would rather pay four times the price and use UPS just to avoid another unfortunate post office experience. Maybe if you're from around here you're used to it, but color me impressed with, of all people, the men and women of this post office!
