    8 Things to Do in Menomonie, WI: Beer & Cheese!

    Traveling through Wisconsin by bus has opened my eyes to cities along the way that are interesting, and great to visit, even without a car. One of those bus stops as I was making my way from Minneapolis to Eau Claire was Menomonie. During that bus ride, I didn’t get to walk around Menomonie but saw a bit of the downtown area and the university from the bus. Little did I know, I’d get a chance to visit the city as part of a FAM trip from TBEX Eau Claire. Here’s how to spend a day in Menomonie Wisconsin. This post is part of our Wisconsin Series.
