It's a time to celebrate the variety of cultures, art, entertainment and cuisine that people from around the world have brought to Milwaukee. A number of factors contribute to the success of festivals in Milwaukee. We have splendid locations at our lakefront and downtown to hold big events. We have visitors and locals who turn out every year. Perhaps most importantly, we have dedicated volunteers who make sure the traditions continue. The cultural festivals in Milwaukee honor traditions and celebrate the arts. Unique dance and musical performances, history and great food are all shared with festival goers. While many attendees have family connections to the celebrated cultures, the festivals embrace everyone. We celebrate our family roots and we invite everyone to join in! Sincerely, Tom Barrett, Mayor July is a busy month for Milwaukee! I want to welcome all our visitors, especially those attending the 134th Northwestern Mutual Annual Meeting of the Association of Network Representatives. Can you hear the music? Summerfest remains the world's largest music festival with over 800 performances filling the 11 stages for 11 days, This month, Milwaukee County is host to many cultural festivals, including Bastille Days, Festa Italiana and German Fest. For something quieter, take a stroll in one of our beauti- ful parks or a bike ride along the Oak Leak Trail. Whether you came to Milwaukee to enjoy the music or to attend a meeting, KEY Milwaukee is a great resource for you to find out everything that is going on in Milwaukee. Sincerely, Chris Abele, Milwaukee County Executive
