Water Contest Winner Revealed

Water is an essential resource for Milwaukee. To celebrate this resource, the Milwaukee Press Club is producing a limited supply of commemorative bottled water that will be available to party attendees and to Press Club members. The Press Club Members and party attendees will help brand this invaluable resource by developing a name and tagline for the bottled water that reflects the importance of fresh water to our region.
