LABOUR DAY DELIGHTS

Unlike any other holiday commemorated in the United States, today celebrates the contributions made through the efforts of employees and service workers and acknowledges their overall impact on the National Product.

While I hold to no opinion whatsoever on issues of a political nature I too am going to be remembering the efforts of those who straighten the freedoms I know and love by celebrating with my friends in the labour movement.

Here in the Metropolitan Milwaukee area there is an event called Labour Fest http://www.milwaukeelabor.org/about_us/laborfest.cfm which is put on through the generous efforts of the Milwaukee Chapter of the Wisconsin A.F.L.C.I.O. Labour Council. The Festival is being held at the:

Henry W. Mier Festival Park
200 N Harbour Dr.
Milwaukee, WI 53202

The event is open to the public from 12:00 PM C.S.T - 05:00 PM C.S.T. General Admission is free. There is also a parade honouring the labour force throughout the City which begins at 11:00 AM and originates at the Honourable Zeidler Union Square Park which is located between Third and Fourth streets on Michigan Avenue.

There is sure to be fun, food, fabulous music, and entertainment for all of your family and friends!
