Milwaukee, Wisconsin – July 2005
Delegate Testimonials

Mosaic Communications, Inc. surveyed a cross-section of delegates from the NAACP 96th Annual Convention in Milwaukee in July regarding their impression of the city. Their responses follow.



“I think your city is beautiful. Overall, I’m having a wonderful time. It’s a very clean city compared to New York and New Jersey. We went over to the waterfront and that was beautiful. The Milwaukee Theater is really wonderful and the architecture is really beautiful. I will come back to visit.”

“We have to applaud the vision and execution performed by the Milwaukee branch (VISIT Milwaukee). I like the integration of the convention center and the hotels. The close proximity of the Milwaukee Theater is a huge plus, too. The weather is great and I also like the close proximity of the mall.”

“I’ve had a pleasant experience. One thing this town has done very well is that the stores downtown and restaurants have signage welcoming the NAACP. I’ve seen a lot of that. One thing I really like is that the convention center connects with the hotels.”

“From what I’ve seen of Milwaukee, I really like it. It’s been a seamless convention for us and a wonderful experience.”
