MILLCREEK
Letter from
the Supervisors
Summer is coming to a close, but we hope the warm
weather will stay with us as long as possible. Residents
can now look to the fall season with much anticipation.
Not only does the 2018-2019 school year begin this
month, but evening temperatures will start to cool off
too. This will lead us into many sporting events held
under the Gus Anderson stadium lights.
We want to begin this issue of the IN Millcreek
magazine with a greater appreciation for the 4th of July
Parade event organizers, participants, and attendees. Each
year this parade highlights community pride and the treasures
offered here in our own backyard. The 2018 parade was
spectacular!
Be sure to check out each of the informative articles
that are from the different departments of Millcreek
Township. The Millcreek Police Department is
currently focusing their efforts on both aggressive
driving and seatbelt safety—information that can be
life-saving. This issue also details programs on property tax rent rebate, Lifeworks LECOM
workshops, and Millcreek Government Channel interviews which are made available through
the Public Services Department. Don’t miss the Recycling Department’s “Ask the Coordinator”
feature article on why plastic bags should not be used to contain recycling curbside. Also
included, the Department of Emergency Management reminds us of the precautionary steps
we need to take in preparing our children and pets for an emergency situation. Finally, the
volunteer fire departments need your support by volunteering your time or donating online!
The Board of Millcreek Supervisors wishes the best to all of our residents and visitors for a safe
and healthy fall season.
John Groh, John Morgan, Jim Bock
ANOTHER SUCCESSFUL
4TH OF JULY PARADE
July 4th is a time to celebrate our
independence and honor those who fought
to secure it. For 53 years, the Millcreek Parade
has entertained thousands of residents.
This year was no exception. The parade
route on West 12th Street from Marshall Drive
to Ford Avenue was lined with red, white and
blue clad attendees along with excited young
faces anxiously awaiting some candy to be
handed their way. This year’s parade was one
of the highest attended with an estimate of
over 30,000 people enjoying the beautiful
weather and patriotic festivities.
The undertaking of the parade requires
planning, hard work and community effort.
Thank you to the Parade Committee, the
Sportsman’s Athletic Club , American Legion
Post 773, Elk’s Lodge #67, Birkmire Trucking,
Millcreek Township, Millcreek Police,
additional sponsors, volunteers and all the
participants and attendees. Without all of
you, the annual parade would not be the
success it has become throughout the years.
