i live in the milwaukee area, thinking of coming down for the air show in Aug. What will access of the river be like. Do i have to go through a lock? If so i can imagine that will be crazy.

Yes there is a lock, it is pretty big and easy to use. The water level only drops about 4 feet . It is located just south of Navy Pier. There is always plenty of traffic on the river with all the tour boats, but not a problem at all. I think it is a little wider than the Milwaukee River downtown.
