Clean Up Day at Lake Milton -- May 10, 2008 Everyone is welcome to join in!  The Green Team, Lake Milton State Park and Volunteers from all groups get out to clean up trash along our roads, to sweep the walking path and to do any landscaping shape-up that needs in our area.  To participate, stop by the maintenance garage on Mahoning Avenue (the entrance next to the park office entrance) or just "join in" when you see the volunteers working.  More info?  Call the Park Office at 330-654-4989.

Youth Fishing Day -- June 7, 2008 This free event is open to all youth.  Fishing poles and bait are provided (if you prefer, you can bring your own).  This is a wonderful chance for first time (as well as experienced) youth interested in fishing to learn from some more experienced fisherman.  Learn to bait a hook, cast your line and hopefully...reel a fish in!  More info?

Hike or bike on the paved nature trail. Grab some cross-country skis and hit the trail as well! (Try the resell sporting goods stores for some great deals on slightly worn equipment.) Bike riding...especially on the warmer days. Stop by the Lake Milton Library and check-out a great book! Bundle up and take a seat on one of the many park benches scattered throughout our beautiful lake front park.  Enjoy the views (and think positive thoughts towards our many volunteers who work so hard for our community). Become a volunteer!
