Welcome to Spooner!! - 10/4/2021
I moved here from NW Illinois in October 2013. Alot of the people here that I've are from the Rockord, Illinois area or South of where I lived. Spooner is what you make it. Local shops love support and have been more than friendly. The bookstore has a discount card. The football players sell a discount card every year.
