The week before Christmas is easily one of the busiest times of the year for the Sturgeon Bay post office, but Postmaster Don Erdmann is pleased with how things proceeded this year. Employing a full staff, Erdmann said a lack of weather issues and fantastic customers were big factors in keeping things from getting out of control. He also mentioned that while it was not a perfect week, major problems were kept to a minimum.
Erdmann said the post office was moving up to 2000 packages every day during the lead-up to Christmas, but following Christmas, that number has dropped to around 600.
