August, 4, 2020, Green Lake, WI - Will Gerstein can officially stick a feather in his cap! As of July 31, nearly 15,000 Bucket Wings have flown out the door. Because of the overwhelming response from the Green Lake community, Will’s “summer business,” Bucket Wings at Town Square, won’t be flying south for the winter. New hours will begin September 1 and after eight weeks, Will and the team will see if they can even turn this into a year-round business. 

“Everyone has been so welcoming.” says Will. “This summer’s venture has exceeded all of my expectations.”

When this whole thing started, Will went as far as to offer to wash dishes and clean the kitchen if his team exceeded 1,000 wings sold in one day. Guess who was elbow deep in dishes within the first couple of weeks?! 

What has been truly memorable for this young entrepreneur is the amount of customers who have flocked to get their chicken wing cravings met. Some have made a point of coming all the way back to Town Square after dinner just to tell the team how awesome it was. Many of these folks have turned into regulars and getting dinner from Bucket Wings, a new weekly tradition. 

As of this week, Will has left the area to start his freshman year at Chapel Hill in North Carolina to major in...get this...Business Finance. But don’t worry! Whether you are already a Bucket Wings fan OR you haven’t had a chance to check it out, there is a well seasoned team of six including two local high school student managers who will continue to serve up the 10 amazing flavors of air-fried chicken wings and freshly baked chocolate chip cookies

The whole Bucket Wings team would like to thank the Green Lake community, Green Lake Chamber of Commerce, and Town Square Community Center for all of their support!

Until the end of August, Bucket Wings is open Friday-Sunday, 5:30-8:30 p.m. and starting September 1, Friday night for dinners 5:30-8:30 p.m., Saturday lunch 11:30 a.m.-2:30 p.m. and dinner 5:30-8:30 p.m., and Sunday dinners 5:30-8:30 p.m.
