What great community support

I would like to take this opportunity to personally thank the 48 business and professional groups in the Milford area that teamed up with the Milford Enhancement Committee to make the sale of over 550 raffle tickets for a once in a life time six-day trip to Dublin, Ireland, that was won by Bob Backrnan and Pat Daly on the drawing on St. Patrick’s Day at the celebration at the Laurel Villa. As we all know, raising money for community projects isn’t easy these days, but when we created 48 teams who were asked to sell raffle tickets, they all gave it a full court press and accomplished a great job of fund raising for the Enhancement Committee. The cost of the trip including hotel and air fare was underwritten by two Milford area families, so the full proceeds benefit the Enhancement Committee and go towards the next project of beautifying our sidewalks and streetscapes. All the best to our community teams for healthy, happy, and rewarding 2009. Dave Chant Raffle Ticket Coordinator
