MILTON MEMORIAL PARK
At their May 1983
meeting, Milton Town Council , voted to built a park,
which will be just off
Chandler Street, behind the Union Stret buildings, the library and
civic center, a bit down
river from the Union Street Broadkill River bridge. You might
say at the Head of the
Broadkill if you so wish.
A schematic by a
landscape architect was accepted at the June 1983 council
meeting.
Meetings with town
citizens and community organizations have brought in cash
donations, materials,
volunteer labor and equipment. The plot of land has been
cleaned
of an old building,
unwanted trees and briars, some new trees have been set out and
a
walkway from Union Street
between the library and civic center, is open. Expect a enter
sign very soon.
A Toddler Area is real,
equipped with play equipment , the Lions have furnished 2 0
wooden picnic tables, and a
balance of over $8000 are on hand.
Help is still needed,,
clean fill dirt and top soil too, and volunteers to do the labor.
