Welcome. There are travel teams in Wisconsin. Send a private message to rz1 and/or BigWi, board members in WI. They can put you in touch with the right folks. The Wisconsin Blazers travel nationally. I think one or two more do as well.
When you block a person, they can no longer invite you to a private message or post to your profile wall. Replies and comments they make will be collapsed/hidden by default. Finally, you'll never receive email notifications about content they create or likes they designate for your content.
Note: if you proceed, you will no longer be following .
