KAUKAUNA, WI (WTAQ-WLUK) – Wisconsin’s fastest grocery bagger helped raise awareness for a new community project.
Jennifer Neubauer took on Kaukauna Mayor Tony Penterman in a speed bagging contest at StoneRidge Piggly Wiggly.
The mayor was no match for Neubauer’s bagging skills.
She has been competing in the state speed bagging competition for three years.
To her credit, a lot of preparation goes into this.
“The first two years I went and I didn’t do so well, but this year I won, we just kinda practice, um, usually at night, I’ll grab some groceries, practice bagging, work on my speed, the construction of my bags, weight distributions and stuff like that,” said
This was part of an event to raise awareness and money for the Kaukauna Public Library’s new Interactive Learning Garden.
Community officials helped bag groceries at the store.
The project will feature several outdoor classrooms which focus on different learning subjects.
The store is asking for donations for the project through January 8.
