| - Champion est une zone non incorporée dans la ville de Green Bay dans le comté de Brown, Wisconsin, États-Unis, autrefois appelée "Aux Premiers Belges", puis "Robinsonville". Entre le 1er juillet 1852 et le 30 juin 1853, la plupart des familles protestantes vont quitter Biez et Grez-Doiceau pour les États-Unis, suivant les conseils du pasteur Vleugels. Dix familles protestantes originaires de Biez vont ainsi fonder la colonie wallonne de Green Bay. D’autres familles s'installent à Robinsonville, où une Eglise presbytérienne francophone, la de New Franken, est fondée, le 17 février 1861. Les cultes y seront célébrés en français jusqu’en 1913.

| - Champion is an unincorporated community in the town of Green Bay in Brown County, Wisconsin, United States. It is part of the Green Bay Metropolitan Statistical Area. The town hall for the town of Green Bay is located in Champion and the National Shrine of Our Lady of Good Help is located just east of Champion. The city has received its name in the 19th century from immigrants coming from a Belgian city called Champion located close to Namur. Before it was called Champion, the community was called Robinsonville after Charles D. Robinson who operated the first post office there, and is sometimes referred to as Robinsonville in Catholic readings. When the post office moved to the store and tavern of Mr. Delvaux to be more centrally located Mr. Delvaux, he didn’t want the office named after him. The suggestion of Champion was from Sister Adele Brice, because it was the name of a little village near Wavre in Belgium where she had planned to join the convent in sisterhood before her parents immigrated.
