🌿Midway Open Space OPEN HOUSE 🌿

Midway residents are invited to attend an Open Space Open House on Saturday, April 11, 2026, from 11:00 AM to 1:00 PM at the Midway Community Center.

Hosted by the Midway Open Space Advisory Committee, this open house is an opportunity to learn more about ongoing and future efforts to conserve and protect open space in our community. Residents can explore current projects, ask questions, and gain a better understanding of how open space contributes to Midway’s character, natural beauty, and quality of life.

Whether you’re curious about current initiatives or simply want to stay informed, we encourage you to stop by, connect with committee members, and be part of the conversation.

We hope to see you there!
