The position will be based in Baraboo, Wis., about 40 miles north of Madison. Candidates who choose to live in Baraboo or the immediate area (15 to 20 miles) will receive preferential consideration.
Our newspapers focus on local high school and college sports and local recreational sports (youth and adult).
