Life is Outdoors in Mercer, Wisconsin
From the vast water wonderland of the 14,300 acre Turtle Flambeau Flowage to the far-reaching wilderness of the 74,500 acres of public forestland, Mercer offers authentic outdoor adventures that you will remember long after you’ve returned home.
Whether you choose to explore on snowmobile, ATV, car, camper, bike, boat, skis, or by foot, you are sure to discover the unending, unique fascination of the Northwoods.
Every season offers a new way to experience our natural beauty. The quiet of winter snow is broken by the sounds of spring peepers that fade as the loon’s calls fill the lakes in the summer. Finally, the woods explode in a riot of color in autumn and then the cycle begins again. That’s the beauty of Mercer. You can’t go wrong . . . life is outdoors.

Event: “Desk Set” — Movie Day for “Love Your Library” month
Date and time: 2/6/2023 at 2:00 p.m.
Location: Mercer Public Library, 2648W Margaret Street, Mercer, Wisconsin
Description: In honor of “Love Your Library” month, the Friends of the Mercer Public Library will sponsor two afternoon movies this month. Join us on Monday, February 6 at 2:00 p.m. for “Desk Set.” This 1957 film is a cult favorite among librarian and stars Katharine Hepburn and Spencer Tracy. Bunny Watson (Hepburn) is in charge of the reference library at the Federal Broadcasting Network when efficiency expert Richard Sumner (Tracy) is brought in to install an EMERAC, a massive early computer. Sparks fly as the reference librarians worry about their jobs, Bunny learns to control the machine, and Bunny’s longtime romantic partner suddenly wants to commit now that Sumner is on the scene. This event is free and open to the public, and popcorn will be provided! For more information, call 715-476-2366 or visit www.mercerpubliclibrary.org.
