Ruth Olson
I’m Ruth Ann Olson. I reside in Onalaska, WI. I have been escorting for Here We Go Tours since the beginning 17 years ago. I have met many travelers on our bus trips. I have been a widow since 2005, when I lost Jim (known as Sweetie Pie on the tours) of cancer. We all miss him dearly. Since I’ve lost Jim, I was diagnosed with cancer. I won the battle and am now cancer free. I have a daughter Traci, her husband Ken and four grandchildren. They reside in the Holmen area. I am looking forward to seeing all of the folks that have been traveling with Here We Go Tours. I certainly been blessed to be your escort and working with Here We Go Tours. Do come and join us on a future tour.
Remember- yesterday is history & tomorrow is a mystery and today is a present!
Cindy Westby
I’m very happy to be working another years as an escort with Here We Go Tours.
I work full time as a corporate receptionist at RTP Company and part time during the summer months at beautiful Cedar Valley Golf course. I also spend a lot of time volunteering in the Winona community.
I live in Winona and have been married to my husband Chuck for 33 years. We have two grown children, Chad, 32 and Chelsie, 25. Chuck and I have a cabin over by castle rock lake Wisconsin and thoroughly enjoy spending our summers there.
Chuck and I both love to travel and that may explain why he accompanies me on most of the tours. I love working with Here We Go Tours as they always travel top class.
I would love to have the opportunity to serve as your escort on some of the upcoming tours. Looking forward to meeting you….

I’m Dianne Campbell, married to Bob Campbell for many years living in the Onalaska area most of those years. We have a diversified wonderful family consisting of three married children, eleven grandchildren and five great grandchildren.
I have watched “Here We Go Tours” grow, providing excellent professionally planned tours, to claim the motto “A Step above the Rest.” I’ve met many new and old friends along the way and have been richly blessed. I’ve enjoyed working for this excellent tour company and the owner. We look forward to seeing you again. Since escorting for Here We Go Tours I have met my goal of visiting every state in the USA!

I have worked in the travel industry for over 27 years and have a passion for visiting new places and meeting new friends. I worked in various areas including Minnesota, Wisconsin and New York.
My husband and I relocated from the St. Paul area 12 years ago and are delighted to be living in the coulee region. We have two children attending Holmen High School. I am currently employed in the Holmen School District. I am very excited to be a part of HERE WE GO TOURS!
Peg Lyga
I have been an escort for Here We Go Tours for many years. It has been a fantastic way to enjoy “retirement.” The opportunity to meet new people and renew old acquaintances has been great. My husband, Mike, also helps me escort on extended trips. We have lived in West Salem for 47 years, which indicates how long we have been a team. We started our teaching careers here. I retired from the Holmen School District after teaching 1st grade for another twenty three years. I still enjoy the opportunities to be a substitute teacher. I must admit, escorting is real upgrade from field trips.
My favorite times are when we are at our cabin in the woods or at our cottage on the Mississippi river with friends and family. Grandchildren now number seven from 18 months to 11 years old. We spend a lot of time together doing fun things. Thursday is the day we babysit. My greatest gifts! I enjoy many activites and hobbies, but my most rewarding hobby is knitting Christmas stockings as gifts. My weekly volunteering in Kindergarten, 1st and 2nd grade is a joy. Mike and I celebrated our 50th anniversary in June. We enjoy the cabin and family and friends which makes life a real pleasure.
