Last night's viewing party was well attended and the crowd was enthusiastic. i provided an update at halftime to the group of 50 or so which included several notables:

* Milwaukee Alderman Michael D'Amato and his wife Becky.
* Judge Marshall Murray and his wife Jo Ann. Judge Murray is also a Wisconsin ODP official. Their son Sean is a senior MF/F on Furman University's soccer team.
* Beth Bishop Perrigo, Associate Director of Wisconsin Boys ODP.
* Steve Perrigo, a public affairs specialist with the Broydrick Group who is helping us with the project
* Kurt Zimmerman from the Zimmerman Design Group, our project architect
* Tyler Hawley, former Cedarburg H.S. and Indiana University standout who now invests in 3rd Ward real estate projects
* Floyd DeBow, the founder of Milwaukee Simba's inner city soccer club that launched the career of newest Fire player Dee White
* MPS interns Mike Norton and Brett Lashbrook and MPS Info Squad members Brian Thomas and Patrick Stanley
* Ben Foldy, aka iwishiweremingus1

Thanks to everyone who was there last night. It was a great time and i hope we can have a similar gathering Thursday evening from 5:30 to 6:00 pm for the Commissioner's appearance.
