Spring in Milwaukee is a great season. As the winter recedes, people here begin focusing on outdoor activities.That includes enjoying all the fun Milwaukee packs into the warmer months. Baseball is a big attraction as the Brewers kick off the Major League season. Milwaukee loves baseball, and the springtime offers us all a chance to dream about another winning season. The lakefront parks in Milwaukee see an influx of visi- tors. People from out-of-town are amazed by Milwaukee's "fresh coast"– the great vistas and open spaces along Lake Michigan. And Milwaukee has a growing tradition of urban agri- culture including personal vegetable gardens, public spaces dedicated to gardening, and prominent organ- izations promoting local production of healthy foods.. As the days grow longer and warmer, Milwaukeeans get outside, embracing the spring season. And they participate in activities that make Milwaukee special. Sincerely, Tom Barrett, Mayor Warmer weather means Milwaukee County visitors can take part in some great outdoor activities. Make your way to Lake Michigan and enjoy biking, skat- ing or sailing at the Milwaukee Sailing Center. What better way to celebrate the outdoors than with Earth Day. Head to one of our many parks on April 20th and cele- brate with festival, music and fun. Or see the animals at the Zoo come out and enjoy the great spring weather too. The Brewers hit the field this month, as fans fill Miller Park. Enjoy great food and friends as you cheer on our team. If the outdoors is not for you, stop at the Marcus Center for the Performing Arts for the Milwaukee Ballet Company's Spring Series. Or enjoy the Milwaukee Art Museum's special exhibition, "Amazing Folk: Traditions in American Art." Let KEY Milwaukee be your guide to the great opportu- nities in Milwaukee County as we jump into spring!
