Beef & Bean Day

Date: August 13, 2011

Description: This annual Town celebration hosted by the Town since the 1930s. Historically speaking, it was an event from the 1930s to World War II. The event stopped and began again in 1972 when a couple of people were roasting beef on one of Milliken's corners. Since this time, the event has continued to grow substantially each year. Beef & Bean Day has many different booths from outside vendors and events for people to participate in. In addition, there is a pancake breakfast, small parade, kids games, live music, barbeque, and fireworks which encompass a full day of many events. The Town is currently hosting meetings on Beef & Bean Day to get all of the interested parties engaged early in the process.
