New Milford United Methodist Men
The New Milford United Methodist Men [NMUMM] meet on the fourth Tuesday of each month at 6:30PM. The organization is open to all men of the church and during this past year we averaged 20-24 men at our meetings. All men in the church are welcome to come for an evening meal and fellowship.
For 45 consecutive years the UMMen have been responsible for placing Christmas trees on the New Milford Green and decorating them for the holiday season for everyone to enjoy. Our major fund raising effort for the 48th year in a row was selling the Christmas trees. Early on the Saturday morning after Thanksgiving a truckload of 600 fresh cut trees waits to be unloaded.
Profits from the sale of Christmas trees were used for:
Additional projects include:
* Shrove Tuesday Pancake Supper
* Assisting in cleaning up the Pines for the summer outdoor services
* Helping with Pumpkin Patch
* Helping with the Fall Fair
