MILWAUKEE -- The South Shore Frolics have been canceled for 2018 by the Bay View Lions Club, the organizer of the event. That's according to a post on the Bay View Town Hall Facebook page.

The Facebook post says "the one-year suspension, and possibly longer, leaves a summer entertainment void for thousands of attendees, including generations of families, who have witnessed it and grown-up with it."
