This past weekend was sort of a last Hurrah for Summer in Milford, Michigan. We had something for everybody going on over the weekend.
On Saturday and Sunday the 2011 Milford Home Tour provided access to five of our Village homes (four of them historic homes), plus visits to the Milford Historical Museum and the Log Cabin was open next to the fire station, with a display of how the original settlers lived in Milford. The Pettibone Creek Powerhouse was also open for tours visits both days and the Friends of Oak Grove Cemetery provided a cell phone based walking tour of the homes of some of Milford’s Civil war heroes, all of whom are buried in Oak Grove Cemetery.
Saturday evening the Milford Downtown Development Authority (DDA) hel
d a reception in Center Street Park to launch the installation of several Detroit Institute of Arts (DIA) Old Masters art reproductions in locations around Milford. The DIA will leave the reproductions on display for a while and people may order reproductions for their homes at several locations around Milford. The DDA reception featured wine and food samples from Milford’s fine restaurants and a walking tour of the installation sites – all in downtown Milford. You can come take the walking tour of the DIA sites anytime for the next couple of months.
Then on Sunday, with all of the events mentioned above still gong on, there was the Tractor Show out at the H
uron Valley State Bank and the huge Milford Car Show, which took up all of Main Street all the way through town. Awards were presented for cars voted best in several categories and for best in show. In addition the Rotary held their annual Duck Race fund raiser, with over a thousand little yellow rubber ducks racing down the Huron River. Prizes were awarded to duck ticket holders for the first few ducks to complete the race. My ducks must have pulled a hamstring or something – they finished out of the money.
So it was a great weekend in Milford, Michigan, with something for everyone to do. Start planning now to be a part of this great tradition next year. We’re already starting to plan for next year’s events. Come on out to MIlford and see why it is one of the greatest places in Michigan to live. I'll find you a home in Milford.

In addition to being a Realtor in Milford, Michigan, I'm also the President of the Milford Historical Society (MHS). The MHS was founded in 1974 by a group of local Milford residents who wanted to preserve the history of our little Village. The main mission of the MHS is running the Milford Historical Museum at 124 E. Commerce St in Downtown Milford. We also run a very nice web site - www.milfordhistory.org.
The MHS runs several events each year, including the Independence Day Parade, which is always a favorite with area residents. Some of our event are aimed at fund raising to support our mission. The Annual Milford Home Tour is the primary fund raiser each year. It occurs on the third weekend in September each year - this year September 17 & 18.
The Home Tour features local homes, mostly historic homes, but that is not a firm requirement. This year we have 4 historic homes on the tour and one newer one in which the owner has arrayed a collection of antique and unique home furnishing items.
This year the Home Tour is walkable. Four of the homes are within 2 blocks of each other and the newer home is within 1/2 mile of the others. Each home has docents in it to give the history and background fo the home and to point out the interesting items that may be in the home.
In addition to the five homes on the tour, the Historical Museum will be open, as well as the Log Cabin next to the fire station and the Pettibone Creek Powerhouse - a water powered, power generation station that was built by Henry Ford and designed by Albert Khan.
Tickets are $15 for adults and $13 for seniors. Tickets may be purchased at the Museum or at each house on the Tour. The Tour starts both days at 11 AM and runs until 5 PM.
On Sunday there is also the Milford Car Show which takes up all of Main Street, and the Tractor Show, which is held oout at the Huron Valley State Bank parking lot. The Huron Valley Rotary Club will also have their annual rubber duck race on Sunday; so, there'll be lots to do in Milford that day. Come out and spend a day in our delightful little village.
