Thank you to everyone who attended Our Milwaukee’s first annual meeting! With over 80 business members, our first year as an organization has indeed been a success and it was a pleasure to see so many new faces at Hi Hat Garage last Tuesday.

Congratulations and welcome to Our Milwaukee’s Board Members who were elected at the meeting; Peter Adams (88.9 RadioMilwaukee), Tiffany Becker (incumbent - Pabst/Riverside/Turner Hall Ballroom), and Gordon Goggins (Secretary - Diablos Rojos Restaurant Group).  Special thanks to HiHat Garage for graciously hosting the event, Lakefront Brewery for providing us with tasty Riverwest Stein, and guest speaker Nelson Soler of the Multicultural Entrepreneurship Institute. (Nelson’s presentation notes are now available for download in the Member Resources section of the Website.)

We look forward to the coming year and hope that Our Milwaukee continues to increase its presence in the community by spreading the word about the importance of a strong, local economy - with your help!
