Miltonvale Park and Milton Community Hall – June 20, 2026
Highlights and New Info – Car Show Help, Strawberry Presentation, School’s Out Bash, Summer Job, Yin Yoga…
HELP! We moved the Car Show at CMP to tomorrow, Sunday, June 21… but some of our volunteers can’t make it due to church and Father’s Day commitments…. Can you help? We will be setting up around 9:30 (setting up tables, chairs, tents, signage, organizing registration),and registration will likely start at 10:30 (paperwork, payment, getting them parked). The show opens at 12 and goes to 4 – and jobs then include taking admission fees and handing out door prize and people’s choice ballots, as well as being at the parking lot at Direct Nutrisciences across the road to help folks park in an orderly fashion. Later, we need to count the best in show ballots, and record and promote winners — and take photos! Then, when the show is over after 4 -the tents, tables, chairs, signs and other things get lugged back to the big truck and unloaded into the hall. If you could help out with any of those jobs for any part of the day, can you please reach out to Shari at admin@miltonvalepark.com. Perks include snacks and a free lunch!
Thanks!!
And… Do you have school-aged children?
END OF SCHOOL YEAR BASH -PLEASE RSVP ASAP, as we need a minimum number to go ahead with the event
Hey kids (parents, too)!
Are you looking for some great fun to celebrate the end of the school year?
Well here it is.
Miltonvale Park’s MVPs Project is working on a party like no other to be held on Friday June 26th from 2:00 to 4:30 PM at the Miltonvale Community Park.
(413 Sleepy Hollow Road)
The afternoon will consist of NERF, refreshments, loads of fun, lots of memories and more.
In order to secure Nerf Wars PEI, who will provide all the equipment necessary and oversee the activity in conjunction with the Park’s Summer staff, we need to know the number of people who will be attending. This event is FREE and is open to all youth and their parents/guardians, with priority being given to Miltonvale Park Residents.
If you are interested in reserving a spot/spots, or require more information, please email jamiermvp@gmail.com ASAP.
Be certain to include: Your name, phone number, the names and ages of all participants, and your civic address
It will be a blast!
ONE LAST SUMMER JOB – 8 weeks for a student -mostly office work.$17.50-$18/hour. Email admin@miltonvalepark.com ASAP for more details.
NOTICE – The washrooms at the Miltonvale Community Park are currently closed. Sorry for the inconvenience. We hope to have them back in action on Monday. And on a related note – If you are a customer of Thomson’s Septic, their email address has changed, and they do NOT have access to emails sent to their old email, or from their website – so they didn’t get the message to pump the septic holding tank a month ago! If you are a customer, their new email is thomsonseptic1952@gmail.com.
The ParticipACTION 2.0 Edition!! Lots of FREE events in June!
(Events take place at the hall, unless noted)
This information is available online at miltonvalepark.com
JUNE is the ParticipACTION Community Challenge! Miltonvale Park is going for the Most Active Community in CANADA – which would see Miltonvale Park win $100,000! We are currently in 28th place nationally, and haven’t included the pickleball in our reporting yet!
The 2026 ParticipACTION Community Challenge presented by Novo Nordisk is a national physical activity and sport participation initiative encouraging everyone to move throughout June.
There are MANY opportunities to take part – and more ways to help Miltonvale Park win! https://www.participaction.com/programs/community-challenge/
- Please attend as many of our FREE events as you can.
- If you are already active in other ways, you can sign up as part of an active group and report this activity. This is for folks who walk with family or friends, golf with buddies, or bike ride with a partner, garden with your kids – or any activity that is not held through an organization and involves at least two people. Sign up with ParticipACTION https://www.participaction.com/signup/ and report throughout the month. You can start now and report for activities you did earlier in June. PLEASE NOTE: ParticipACTION assigns people to communities according to your postal code – so if you would like to support Miltonvale Park, please register with a Miltonvale Park postal code – The hall’s is C1E 0S7. If you live in Miltonvale Park, but get your mail in Winsloe or Hampshire, and use those postal codes, that might count you in Charlottetown or Hampshire!
- Like to walk or run on your own? Send us your steps for the Walk More than the Mayor and Virtual Walk to Milton, Saskatchewan. We can also convert your activity (e.g. gardening, dancing into steps). You can email miltonvalepark.staff@gmail.com or complete the surveys here: https://www.surveymonkey.com/r/MVPWalk3 or https://www.surveymonkey.com/r/MVPWalk4
Almost ALL the active events will be FREE in June, due to the support from a grant to the Milton Community Hall from ParticipACTION, which is funded by the Government of Canada, the Milton MVPs Project, which is funded by the Government of Prince Edward Island through the PEI Alliance for Mental Well-Being, or the Rural Municipality of Miltonvale Park.
If spaces are limited, Miltonvale Park residents have priority registration.
