Help Us Build a Downtown Kiosk for Milo!

The Friends of Milo is excited to announce plans for an information kiosk in the heart of downtown Milo — a welcoming spot where residents and visitors can find maps, local flyers, business information, and learn more about all there is to see and do in our beautiful area. GREAT NEWS: all donations up to $5,000 will be matched by a generous Milo donor! This is a great way to make your dollars count, and every dollar stays right here in our community. Please consider making a donation — and share this post to help spread the word! 💙 Donations may be made to the Friends of Milo account at Maine Savings Bank (ask them to note ‘kiosk’ on the donation) or to Friends of Milo members Xiaorong Horton, Allen Monroe, Fred Trask, Steve Quist, or Breena Dee Bissell. Thank you for your support.

Your donation is tax-deductible! Please let us know if you would like a donation acknowledgment!

The current plan is to build the Kiosk at the space between Elaine's Basket Cafe & Milo House of Pizza, as shown in the concept photo.

Flowers are up on Main Street!

Thank you all for who have donated and putting them up!

Our flower care team is on duty already. If you want to help throughout the summer, please contact Allen Monroe or Xiaorong Horton. Many hands make light work, we would greatly appreciate any help!

iMovie helped me put these together! You will see our most senior member having fun with his fancy toy (I mean tool), while the younger generations watch and learn. 😁 it was hard work, but well worth the time and effort! Hope you can join us next time!

It was such a beautiful day to be out side! We had a great turn out for our Ferry Road Landing clean up! Thank you so much for who have showed up and helped!

Have you been to the Ferry Road Landing lately? The slate path we put down looks great! But there are still work to do! Fred Trask had pulled out the abandoned furniture in the woods and put them to the road side last week. Saturday May 16th at 9am, we will have another Clean Up session, to pickup other smaller Junks and trim the brushes too close to the road. If you have some free time, please bring your tools and join us for the fun!
