Salvation Army held Red Kettle Kickoff event

November 17, 2012

The Salvation Army of Milwaukee County continued its annual Red Kettle Christmas Campaign activities with a free winter festival kickoff event full of fun for the entire family! Special guests appearances were made by former Green Bay Packer & Sports Radio 1250 AM WSSP host Gary Ellerson and former Green Bay Packer Super Bowl XXXI Champion Chris Jacke. The event was held on Saturday, Nov. 10 at Wisconsin State Fair Park. Families attending the Red Kettle Kickoff family event were entertained by Radio Disney, The Salvation Army Brass Ensemble, the Milwaukee Youth Symphony Orchestra, Captain Food Fight, the Red Kettle bounce house, a sleight of hand magician, caricature artists and they were able to play some exciting games. Free food, hot cocoa, nachos, popcorn, snow cones and candy canes were plentiful! Also pictured in center is Major Roger Ross, Milwaukee Salvation Army’s Commander. (Photo by Robert A. Bell)
