OSHKOSH, WI- The Winnebago County Sheriff’s Office has had a busy weekend with ice rescues. Authorities say they had to conduct 14 rescues in a little over 16 hours from Friday at 6:30 p-m through 11:00 a-m Saturday on Lake Winnebago and Lake Poygan. Wind gusts of 56 miles per hour were reported in Sherwood Friday just before 7:00 p-m. The winter weather forced the early shut down of the Battle on Bago fishing tournament at Menominee Park. No deaths were reported in any of the rescues.
