Milwaukee Green Roof Symposium
The workshop will provide an opportunity for participants to learn from local and national experts about the general design and implementation of green roofs. Regional case studies will be featured and afternoon focus group sessions will allow attendees the chance to identify with relevant city officials the local research needs and obstacles to implementation. Input gathered from participants of this workshop will help guide the further development of green roof policy options in the Milwaukee area. Location: Milwaukee School of Engineering 1025 N. Broadway Tuition for this workshop is $199 per person.

Pictures from VITAL's Random Exposure show August 10, 2006 at the Eisner Museum of Advertising and Design, exhibiting the top 50 entries. Diamonds laid down hot jams like butter on breakfast toast, Vucciria put out a spread almost too beautiful to eat and Point Brewing Co. kept everyone well-libated with beer and fine sodas. Wow. Thanks to the over 250 fine VITAL readers that came down and shared the evening with us. We love you.

Team VITAL rocked Bay View's Bocce Fest. We passed the semi-finals but somehow missed the cue that we'd made the finals and disbanded the team before the showdown, possibly walking away from the title without even knowing it.
