Lubar donation will bring back lifeguards to Bradford Beach

By Jim Butman

Milwaukee County Executive Scott Walker announced that the Lubar Family Foundation will make a $65,000 donation to bring back lifeguards at Bradford Beach this summer.

"Shel and Marianne Lubar have offered a generous gift to provide lifeguard services at Bradford Beach this summer," Walker said. "I appreciate that their foundation has filled a need that will add to our public safety efforts for visitors to the beach."

In recent years, the lifeguard positions were eliminated by county budget cuts. Bradford Beach has seen increased activity with the addition of several planned recreational events for the public.
