22nd Annual Family Fun Fair 3/12/16

The MA Department of Developmental Services and Milford Family & Community Network will host its free 22nd annual Family Fun Fair on Saturday, March 12, 2016 from 11 a.m. to 2 p.m. in the Milford High School cafeteria. (The snow date is March 19th.) A wide range of exhibitors, who work with families from the prenatal stage through adolescence, will include health care professionals, social services, community and educational programs, day care providers and small businesses. There will be entertainment throughout the day. Exhibitors are also encouraged to include a child-friendly activity at their table.

The Massachusetts Youth Child Identification Program (MYCHIP) will be provided again this year by the Montgomery Lodge of Milford, Ancient Free Accepted Masons. MYCHIP is the most comprehensive service of its kind anywhere. The program is free to the public, with all of the identifying items generated during the event given to the child’s family. In addition, the Lions Club will host free blood pressure checks.

This year we are participating in the Greater Milford Diaper Drive and will be happy to collect diapers of all sizes, along with infant/toddler personal care items (wipes, creams, etc.).

The Fair is a great vehicle for families to learn about all the community has to offer. For more information, call Sara Humiston at 508-634-2356.
