On July 4, Milton becomes Mayberry

July 5, 2022

On a hot summer day, Milton decided to take a trip to the past with an afternoon of family fun at the annual Bring Mayberry Back to Milton event July 4.

A celebration of old-school town fairs, the event is geared toward kids, with a selection of old-fashioned games like ball toss, spin the wheel and rubber duck matching. A dunk tank is also set up, where throwers can attempt to dunk members of the Milton Fire Department. The afternoon also featured a patriotic bike parade, where kids ride bikes from Irish Eyes into Memorial Park. 

And since this is Memorial Park, kids lined up to take a ride on the mini-train, sponsored by Milton Lions Club, that runs through the park and piloted on this day by Jim Coverdale.
