LOCAL. FAMILY
FUN. TODAY.
Milwaukee was
recently named the
#2 mom-friendly city
in the country. And it’s
no surprise given the
vast amount of free family fun there
is all year round, all over the city.”
MiltownMoms.com is dedicated to
helping Milwaukee families
find fun every day of the year. “
The website features a full calendar
for the city of Milwaukee and
surrounding suburbs, as well as a
Weekend Guide featuring the top five
picks for the week. “
The website was started by local
mom and Milwaukee Public Schools
teacher, Calie Herbst, who was
looking to keep a family fun
calendar for her own family. Now,
the website reaches thousands of
local families each month.”
This summer, we’ll continue to bring
families up-to-date
information about free and
inexpensive opportunities to explore
the city together.”
Stay up to date with places like
Havenwoods State Forest, the
Marcus Center for the Performing
Arts, Bayshore Town Center,
Schlitz Audubon Nature Center,
Old World Wisconsin and
Milwaukee Public Libraries all in
one place! Happy exploring,
Milwaukee!”
“Denim & Diamonds” event to
benefit ovarian cancer research
A small group of women business
owners in New Berlin created a unique
local fundraiser to muster the power
of its local businesses and residents
by using trolleys in the fight against
ovarian cancer. They have created a
special formula to grow its impact
and awareness for ovarian cancer
research. The Denim and Diamonds
event will be held for the fourth time
on June 18th to bring community
members together for a common goal
– fighting ovarian cancer. By using
trolleys to transport event participants
from location to location, participants
can catch a trolley at any of the ten
participating local area businesses
to experience discounts, pampering,
food, beverages, prizes, entertainment
and more.
There will be something for everyone
at the Denim and Diamond Event
on June 18th, from 2 PM – 8 PM.
Participating businesses in the New
Berlin community include Arizona
Spa, Armeli’s Restaurant, the newly
opened JLK Outlet, Prospect Hill
Garden Center, Linda’s Hallmark,
Pure Family Chiropractic, Shady Acres
Nursery, Shop to Carrie On, Tobin
Jewelers, and Twins Flowers.
The Wisconsin Ovarian Cancer
Alliance located in New Berlin benefits
through a portion of the proceeds
of the annual Denim and Diamonds
event. Since 2000, this non-profit
group has been on a fast track to
provide education, advocacy, and
helps generate support to local
patients and their families. Theresa
Frinzi from one of the participating
businesses, Twins Flowers, celebrates
her eighth year of winning the
fight against ovarian cancer. jsonline.com
