Although the sounds of rock music roared from a stage in Veterans Park on Saturday, it was easy to tell this was not a typical Milwaukee lakefront summer festival.
If the Christian lyrics of the songs weren’t enough of a clue, the sign on a tent near the stage was the giveaway. The sign said, “Prayer.” At most summer festivals here, the sign would have said, “Beer.”
There was no beer at the Rock the Lakes festival Saturday, but there was lots of spirit.
