The people of Milwaukee love
to celebrate. We celebrate our
ethnicities, our sports teams,
the arts, growing businesses
and we especially celebrate our
families.
A new trend celebrates the
future, encouraging those who
will define our future. Groups such as NEWaukee and
Fuel Milwaukee channel the energy of early-career
professionals. They attract young talent and work to
fulfill social, volunteer, and professional interests.
They are powerful forces in our civic life.
NEWaukee calls itself a social architecture firm, offer-
ing direction and structure in order to make our com-
munity greater. Fuel Milwaukee focuses on engage-
ment, adding dimensions to the lives of young profes-
sionals.
Among young people here, the level of enthusiasm,
involvement, and action has surpassed any I have
seen before.
Sincerely,
Tom Barrett, Mayor
October is a special month in
Milwaukee County. Our parks,
backyards, Lakefront and even
our Downtown gains the fiery
accents of fall color. I believe its
Mother Nature's way of inviting
us to step out and enjoy the
autumn weather.
Milwaukee County embraces fall
with excellent outdoor opportunities to enjoy the sea-
son. Stop by one of our farmers markets, enjoy a
special day at the Milwaukee County Zoo, or squeeze
in one more round of golf before the snow comes.
For indoor fun, visit the numerous museums, theaters,
and concerts Milwaukee County offers. Consider a
walk through the famous Domes to explore the
beautiful floral displays or attend a morning yoga class
in the Milwaukee Art Museum.
As you plan your adventures in Milwaukee, KEY
Milwaukee is an outstanding resource. No matter what
you choose to do in Milwaukee County, I hope you
enjoy your time with us.
Sincerely,
Chris Abele, Milwaukee County Executive
