Local business expanding beyond its bounds

 

Local business expanding beyond its bounds

A Wonewoc-Center High School graduate is moving up in the world with his business soon moving to a brand new, permanent location. I learned a lot from him and decided to try it starting small, and then it snowballed. I also work out of my truck and a job trailer. Dad had his own business for a short time many years ago.

"Dad and I started the building [construction] last summer and we hope to open it this summer," Baker said.

"I worked with my dad when I was in high school and then attended Western Technical College in La Crosse in heating and air conditioning," Baker said. Dad and I are both master electricians.

In a role reversal, Josh Baker's father Steve Baker now works for his son.

What began as a part-time job for a 17-year-old has become a thriving business.
