sledz 23 | 2,250 16 Jun 2007 / #1Krysia told me about a Polish festival in Wisconsin next weekendI hear it gets a pretty good crowd and its right on the lakefrontin downtown Milwaukee....Its not that far from Chicago, I think its time for a roadtrip....Is anybody else going to go?????
krysia 23 | 3,058 16 Jun 2007 / #2WOW! Does that mean I get to meet the same forum member twice in a year? Is that a new record??
krysia 23 | 3,058 16 Jun 2007 / #6I guess it's up to us to take pictures and post them on the forum...So the whole Polska can see that America respects and keeps the Polish traditions alive.
OP sledz 23 | 2,250 16 Jun 2007 / #7I didnt know there was a big polish community in MilwaukeeI`m sure alot of ppl from Chicago will drive up alsoIts only 70 miles away

Nic - | 9 18 Jun 2007 / #20I'd love to go myself with my Dad and a cousin, but as usual the timing stinks for me. Anyone from Michigan that would be interested in a voyage, to get to the Festival. I live in Muskegon where we have The Lakes Express. It's a ferry that will take you and your car to Milwaukee. I haven't checked the rates lately, but I'll give it a whirl today. If someone is interested I would even help with travel plans and directions. My e-dress is <nicsflix@zcloud.net> Milwaukee does know how to throw a festival. Good food, drink and events. I know the ferry runs at least twice a day. It's a 2.5 hour trip across Lake Michigan to Milwaukee. I think their festivals vary throughout the Summer. Have a Grreat Week!
OP sledz 23 | 2,250 18 Jun 2007 / #21I think their festivals vary throughout the SummerSummerfest in milwaukee is huge music festival, I went there last yearand am planning on going again..June 28 thru July 8summerfest.comKrysia ru still planning on going???
