Neville Public Museum: Golden Age of Video Games May 25 – Sept. 3, 2013
If you were a child of the 80′s and 90′s, then you might want to take a trip down memory lane with the Neville Public Museum’s latest exhibit.
It’s called the Golden Age of Video Games and runs from May 25 – September 3, 2013.
Think Pac-Man, Space Invaders, Donkey Kong and Frogger in those giant arcade-sized machines. In fact, there are more than 80 original arcade games on display.
Brown County residents can get in free to the Neville every Wednesday from 6 – 8pm with proof of residency.

Repost: Online Resources for Green Bay area Rummage Sales
This is it. The last weekend in April means a ridiculous amount of rummage sales and large ones, too! It’s Rummage Sale Season!
There are some great online resource to help you plan your rummage sale routes.
One is called Yard Sale Treasure Map – A Yard Sale Planning Tool.
The site shows you the garage sale listings that people post on Craigslist but in map form. While I am not a huge rummager anymore, I think this could be a very useful tool if you hop the sales. And if you are having a rummage sale, you might want to consider putting an ad on Craigslist because of this online resource, too.
Another place you can check is a Facebook page called Brown County, WI Rummage Sales. They have a calendar that lists city-wide sales as well as reader-submitted postings, too. Let them know Green Bay Consumer sent ya!
Let’s get out there and get rummaging!
