CSWAB at Indian Summer Fest

MERRIMAC -- CSWAB’s brand new information booth will make its debut at this
year's Indian Summer Festival on Sept. 10-12 at Milwaukee's beautiful
lakefront Henry Maier Festival Park.   This year, the nation's largest
American Indian cultural festival celebrates the theme "Two Continents: One
People" by focusing on the indigenous peoples of South and Central America
as well as those of North America.

The environmental area of the festival focuses on preserving the earth and
its creatures.  CSWAB, a local activist organization that has been working
since 1990 to get Badger Army Ammunition Plant cleaned up and restored for
conservation, will join more than 50 organizations in the Environmental
Education Tent.  Other groups participating this year include the Midwest
Treaty Network, Mining Impact Coalition, Wisconsin Stewardship Network, and
the Wolf Watershed Education Project.

Setting Indian Summer apart from Milwaukee's other festivals is Education
Day, held this year on Friday, September 10. The grounds are open only to
registered student groups for hands-on learning experiences, pow-wow
demonstrations and special programs and activities. Thousands of school
children from throughout Wisconsin and neighboring states attend the event.
