By the middle of the decade, the panel drew up a proposal for a 10-day multi-event festival with the proposed name of "Milwaukee World Festival," which was changed briefly in 1966 to "Juli Spaß" (German for "July Fun") and then to "Summerfest".<sup id="cite_ref-8" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-8"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>8<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> </p><p>The inaugural Summerfest was held in July 1968 at 35 different locations throughout the city (including <a href="/wiki/Milwaukee_County_Stadium" title="Milwaukee County Stadium">Milwaukee County Stadium</a> and <a href="/wiki/US_Cellular_Arena" class="mw-redirect" title="US Cellular Arena">Milwaukee Arena</a>), and its events ranged from concerts to a film festival, an air show, and even a pageant. The first Summerfest, produced by Dee Robb and Con Merten was regarded as a success; the second event in 1969, was less successful, as it was plagued by additional venues, inclement weather, and severe financial debt. </p><p>In 1970, a permanent central location was decided upon, and Summerfest moved to a former <a href="/wiki/Nike_missile" class="mw-redirect" title="Nike missile">Nike missile</a> site on the <a href="/wiki/Lake_Michigan" title="Lake Michigan">lakefront</a>, where it continues to be held to this day. Also that year, Summerfest introduced its red "smiley face" logo, an insignia that has become synonymous with the event. The logo was designed by local graphic artists Noel Spangler and Richard D.
