Bay Park Square, the largest mall in Green Bay, was recently recognized as a 2017 Weather-Ready Nation (WRN) Ambassador of Excellence by the National Weather Service (NWS).

 

The WRN Ambassador initiative is the NWS's effort to recognize partners who are improving the nation's readiness against severe weather events. The Excellence recognition honors Ambassadors for their outstanding work and contributions to building a Weather-Ready Nation. Bay Park Square held its first ever Severe Weather Awareness Expo in April 2017, where dozens of vendors, two television stations, and the NWS, staffed information booths and conducted seminars. The event drew hundreds of people to the mall where they learned how to prepare before, be safe during, and recover after a storm.
