Slide the City™ to Make a Splash in Milwaukee
Milwaukee, WI (PRWEB) July 17, 2015 -- Summer is heating up and next week Slide the City™ is bringing their one-of-a-kind slide to Milwaukee. On July 25, families and friends alike can slip, slide and splash down this king- sized slide. Event organizers are excited to bring this event to Milwaukee for the first time.
“We can’t wait to bring Slide the City™ to this fun loving community,” said Andrew Lacanienta, event director. “There is nothing quite like a giant water party right downtown.”
Highland Avenue will become almost un-recognizable when black asphalt is replaced with a massive slippery surface that spans three city blocks. Event organizers anticipate that thousands of adventure seekers will ride their inflatable tubes down this Guinness World Record™ - breaking slide. With music provided by Virgin Radio, local vendors and giveaways throughout the day, this family-friendly event promises to be a highlight of the year.
Slide the City™ donates a portion of the proceeds from every event to a local charity. "There is nothing quite like speeding down a slip ‘n slide knowing you are giving back to the community," Lacanienta said. "The Salvation Army is a fantastic organization and we are thrilled to be working with them."
Sliding starts at 10am. Participants can purchase a one, three or super slider pass during a selected wave time and are encouraged to sign up before July 22 to take advantage of the current Facebook promo. Pricing starts at $20.
Those over 5 years of age and 46 inches tall are welcome to slide!
