The streets of Milton were packed Dec. 10 for a day of holiday festivities as part of the town’s Holly Fest.

The festival, put on by Milton Chamber of Commerce, featured Christmas wreaths and hollies for sale by Milton Garden Club, plus funnel cakes, a raffle and snacks provided by the Golden Rule Lodge in Milton. 

In addition, the day featured the Milton Arts Guild’s annual winter market and show, this year called Cool Vibes for its winter theme. Finally, the annual Holiday House Tour, hosted by the Milton Women’s Club, featured 12 houses decorated for the season and available for the public to tour.
