By Dave Kallmann of the Journal Sentinel

Feb. 10, 2012 5:02 p.m. | A Michael Andretti-backed group led by a former AirTran official will promote the return of IndyCar racing to the Milwaukee Mile this year.
Andretti Sports Management announced its entree into race promotion Friday, saying the race would be held on the Saturday of Father's Day weekend, June 16.
Kevin Healy, who was senior vice president of marketing and planning for AirTran, will serve as managing director of Milwaukee IndyFest.
The Friday-Saturday weekend is to include entertainment beyond the race itself on the grounds of State Fair Park.

This is GREAT news!

UPDATE: It seems like it's a done deal, but maybe isn't: SpeedTV  Can only hope.
