Citizens for Milford is organizing the Annual Milford Beautification Day, which enables area residents, organizations, and businesses to work together to beautify our community by picking up trash around town.
Milford Beautification Day will be held Saturday, April 25th from 9:00 a.m. to 1:00 p.m. with a rain date of Sunday, April 26th from noon to 3:00 p.m. All interested citizens are invited to meet with organizers anytime between those hours in the municipal parking lot across from Sacred Heart Church (5 East Main Street) to get supplies, instructions, and assignments.
Who Can Participate?
Families, community groups, churches, local businesses, and teenagers who need to perform service hours are all invited to participate. Younger children are encouraged to attend as long as they are accompanied by a supervising adult.
Did Someone Say FREE LUNCH?!
All Beautification Day volunteers are invited to a free lunch courtesy of the Milford Lions Club and Milford’s Rail Trail Flatbread Company to thank everyone for their efforts to beautify our community. Lions Club members will be grilling hamburgers and hot dogs on site, and folks from Rail Trail Flatbread Company will be serving samples of New City Microcreamery ice cream. Master Roof will also be hosting a water bottle refill station and allowing public access to its restroom, conveniently located across the street. In the event of rain, food service will not be available on Sunday.
Problem Areas?
To help ensure the organizers can plan the clean-up routes for volunteers, the group is asking residents to report streets and neighborhoods that are of particular concern. Residents can submit their recommendations by emailing them to CitizensforMilford@gmail.com or by messaging them to the Citizens for Milford Facebook page (@CitizensforMilford) before 5:00 p.m. on Thursday, April 23th.
THANK YOU!
Citizens for Milford is sincerely grateful to the Milford Highway Department, Friends of the Milford Upper Charles Trail, Milford Lions Club, Rail Trail Flatbread Company, and Master Roof. Corporate volunteers continuing their partnership with us this year include Milford Federal Bank and Milford Doubletree Hotel. Combined with the work of all residents who volunteer on Beautification Day, this event is a true demonstration of community pride.
