July 2: Celebrating the 4th of July

July 3, 2007

Celebrate the 4th Milwaukee!

Since 1911, the City of Milwaukee has provided its citizens, neighbors and visitors a safe and friendly celebration of America's independence.

In parks throughout the city, families and friends gather for picnics, games, doll buggy parades and talent contests. At night the sky is filled with fireworks bursting all over town.
This is your invitation to join the 4th of July Commission in celebration of America!
