“As a UW-Oshkosh alumna, this community will always hold a very special place in my heart,” Haberman said. “I discovered neat places and fun activities (and plenty of great restaurants), many of which I had not experienced as a student, despite living here for four years! The opportunity to return to Oshkosh to film for the show reminded me of just how diverse and unique this city really is. We are thrilled to include Oshkosh among our 2015 Choice Destinations.”
Discover Wisconsin is the nation’s longest-running tourism program and can be seen statewide on Fox Sports North (FSN) Saturdays at 10 a.m.
The OCVB is a private, not-for-profit organization, funded solely through room tax dollars from Oshkosh hotels. Its mission is to promote Oshkosh as Wisconsin’s Event City and Winnebago County as a premier destination for corporate, sports and leisure groups and individual visitors.
