Onalaska is a city in La Crosse County, Wisconsin. The name for the city
comes from the poem"The Pleasures of Hope", by the Scottish
poet Thomas Campbell. The original spelling of the name in Campbell's
poem was "Onalaska" (an Aleutian island and fishing village).
Onalaska sits on the banks of the Mississippi River and is conveniently
located right off I-90. It's the ideal place to relax and enjoy the outdoors.
Onalaska is known as "The Sunfish Capital of the World." |
