Raske Informative Speech

Decent Essays
I grew up in a city called Racine. Racine is located in the southeast corner of Wisconsin. Racine is a pretty varied city. What I mean by that is you come across people from all walks of life. there are a lot of kids, a bunch of teenagers, a multitude of middle-aged people, and some senior citizens. Because of this growing up here was very eye opening to how people can be so similar yet so different. Racine sits on the edge of Lake Michigan. Along the coast is a beach which gets fairly populated in the summertime. Further down but still on the coast you will find a lighthouse which offers tours. Racine has a lot of really good food to experience but our Kringle is well renowned.
