NORTHWEST WISCONSIN — Today marks a major milestone for DrydenWire.com: our 10-year anniversary. On October 1, 2015, DrydenWire officially launched with a mission to provide fast, accurate, and community-focused online news to Northwest Wisconsin. A decade later, DrydenWire has grown into the region’s most-read online news outlet, trusted daily by thousands of readers.
Over the past ten years, DrydenWire has covered breaking news, community stories, politics, crime, weather emergencies, obituaries, and more — always with a commitment to keeping the people of Northwest Wisconsin informed.

Founder Ben Dryden reflected on the milestone:
“When DrydenWire launched in 2015, I never imagined what it would become. What started as a small idea has grown into something so much bigger — and that’s because of the trust and support from our readers. This community has made DrydenWire what it is today.”
As DrydenWire looks ahead to the next decade, the focus remains the same: delivering news that matters, serving readers first, and continuing to grow as a platform for honest, accessible, and timely journalism.
“This isn’t just DrydenWire’s anniversary — it’s Northwest Wisconsin’s,” Dryden added. “We’re honored to be part of your daily lives, and we’re excited about what the next 10 years will bring.”
