Dan Kapanke stopped in the studio to talk about the upcoming seasons for the La Crosse Loggers baseball team, the newly created La Crosse Steam softball club and the PFAS “forever chemicals” situation in the town of Campbell. 

Kapanke is co-owner of both the Loggers and Steam, who will both play at Copeland Park this summer. He is also the board chair for the Town of Campbell, which has been on bottled water for over four years because of PFAS contamination in 90 percent of the private wells on the island.

Spent a good portion of the show talking about the inaugural season for the Steam, some history of the Loggers — including MLB all-stars Chris Sale and Max Scherzer — plus a little bit on how renovations at Copeland Park, which is owned by the city, compare to how stadium upgrades happened with the Milwaukee Brewers.

Ended the show (32:20) discussing the PFAS situation, what Campbell’s options are and where the money to proceed with any of those options will come from.
