Um, yes hello!
Geo Rutherford, this year’s Speaking Contest Emcee, is an artist, author, and educator from Sauk City. Geo has gained a massive following on TikTok and Instagram for her creative and educational content.
After lunch on Wednesday, you can purchase a copy of Geo's debut book, Spooky Lakes: 25 Strange and Mysterious Lakes that Dot Our Planet. The lakes featured in the book aren’t spooky because of ghosts or ghouls, but rather due to natural phenomena, scientific oddities, human interactions, environmental disasters, and the mysteries lurking beneath the surface!
