(WAUSAU, Wis.) – Northcentral Technical College (NTC) is pleased to announce a partnership with the NTC Property Foundation to create housing options that support learners in the woods/forestry industry at NTC’s Antigo campus. Timberwolf Cabins will provide learners with a unique space to live and learn while attending classes at NTC’s Wood Technology Center of Excellence and Sawmill.

“Students travel from across the nation for hands-on training in the forestry industry at NTC’s Antigo campus,” said Dr. Jeannie Worden, President of NTC. “We recognized the need for additional housing options for our students and are grateful that the City of Antigo supports our plan for Timberwolf Cabins.”

Timberwolf Cabins will provide housing options to incumbent workers attending 4- to 8-week continuing education programs or traditional college students enrolled in a one- to two-year credit program. Students will also have access to an outdoor social area, laundry facilities, business equipment and recreational equipment during their stay.

Due to the generosity of the Elwyn Remington Foundation, the first Timberwolf Cabin is fully funded. Mark Bradley, a founding board member of the Remington Foundation, noted, “As a lifelong resident of Antigo, Al Remington understood the important role the timber industry plays in the Antigo area economy; thus, the board of directors of the Remington Foundation thought a gift to construct the first student cabin was a wonderful way to honor Al’s commitment to education and economic development.”

This donation launches the NTC Property Foundation’s campaign to raise funds for another five cabins.
