The event’s food and commercial
vendors spent the better part of Tuesday prepping for the official
kickoff bash for the weeklong Harley Owners Group event, where the
Washington County Fair Park has been christened the official
campground of the Harley-Davidson 105th anniversary celebration in
and around Milwaukee.
"It’s a great opportunity to meet a lot of different
people," said Amy Lauters, co-owner of West Bend
Harley-Davidson and Hartford Harley-Davidson Shop.
