Welcome... Step outside this month and enjoy the season's last warm weekends. Get in a round of fall golf at one of Milwau- kee County's outstanding courses, picnic in one of our award-winning parks or stroll along a lakefront like none other. An added attraction this year is the inaugural PNC Milwaukee Running Festival, featuring the first marathon run entirely through Milwaukee's many neighborhoods. For indoor fun, check out the outstanding museums, theaters and concert venues throughout Milwaukee County. At the landmark horticultural Domes, the special "Clueless" show leads visitors to solve a murder mystery by collecting clues in the show dome. As you plan your adventures, KEY Milwaukee is an outstanding resource. No matter what you choose to do in Milwaukee County, we're certain you'll enjoy your time with us. Chris Abele, Milwaukee County Executive Surprise! Milwaukee is a gem of a destination. The beauty, the events and the natural advan- tages of our community astonish some of our visitors. They arrive with few expectations and depart with an appreciation of all Milwaukee offers. Throughout our history, Milwaukee's identity has been closely tied to our freshwater assets. Lake Michigan and our rivers have always been important for both commerce and recreation. Water-related in- dustry and waterborne transportation are important parts of the economy. Our lakefront parks and fes- tival grounds draw millions of people; our riverwalk, the trails and bikeways along our rivers, and even our urban fishing add to Milwaukee's character. Our museums, ethnic celebrations and profes- sional sports teams are all important facets of life in Milwaukee. And our neighborhoods are loaded with charm. Our city has a lot to offer. That's no surprise to residents, and more and more visitors are discovering Milwaukee's appeal. Tom Barrett, Mayor 06 keymilwaukee.com 2145 W.
