“Milwaukee Moments” Photo Contest Calls for City’s Most Memorable Snapshots
- Winners to be Featured at 162nd City Birthday Party, January 29 -

The Milwaukee Press Club announces a photo contest for the 162nd City of Milwaukee Birthday Party to be held January 29, 2008 at The Pfister Hotel.
“No doubt many in our city will be prompted to pull out the shoe box or dust off the photo album to pick out photos that represent the fun times and memorable moments that they’ve had with family and friends in Milwaukee,” said Julie Pedretti, chair of the City Birthday Party committee for The Milwaukee Press Club. “The popularity of electronic photos makes this contest so easy to enter.”

Residents and media can view contest rules and entry instructions on the contest Web site: www.MilwaukeeMoments.com. Submissions must be uploaded electronically. All FedEx/Kinko’s locations throughout Metro Milwaukee are available to scan photos and assist residents in submitting their snapshots.
“Images have always been a powerful storytelling tool and our modern-day version of the folk tale,” said Pedretti. “Photos shared by those who were there often play a role in defining key moments in Milwaukee’s history. This year, the Milwaukee Press Club would like its members and the community of Milwaukee to celebrate that role.”
