Can You Name All Our State Symbols?

Wisconsin has 22 state symbols, the most recent addition to the list being the official state tartan.
The story behind the tartan is quite interesting. Despite what you may think, this…
is not a state symbol.
Wisconsin’s list may seem lengthy, and in some cases, odd. But other states have more symbols, and some are pretty strange. A state bean? A state cooking pot? The National Conference of State Legislature has more.
All of our state symbols are pictured in the Wisconsin Blue Book. If you would like a Blue Book, please contact me at Sen.Lazich@legis.wisconsin.gov, www.senatorlazich.com, Senator Mary Lazich, State Capitol, P.O. Box 7882 Madison, WI 53707 or 1-800-334-1442.
