MILFORD BARRELS IN BLOOM Our Part 2 demo was a great success. 16 persons gath- ered in the Town Hall to watch as we transformed the Town Hall barrel into a work of natural wonder. Many thanks to whoever was brave and strong enough to get the 'barrel into the hall. And thanks to Bruce & Jim and their helpers for getting it back outside. Using many kinds of evergreens, dried materials and lots of imagination, we filled the barrel as well as gave other ideas for decorating your home for the holidays. As you drive the roads of Milford, watch carefully for the barrels lining the town. If you haven't filled your barrel yet, be sure to do so and keep the barrels in bloom program rolling. We would also like to thank the Milford Fair Board for | approving a new category for 2003 - BEST BARREL. We wish everyone a very happy holiday season and thank you for supporting the program. ~ Carolyn Whiteley & Pat Dubyk CHRISTMAS OPEN HOUSE | Thursday, December 19th - Ann Farwell Library - 1-5 pm.
