began discussing a recreation space for youth in the Milford area.
Almost 60 years later, MRA continues to provide our recreational facility
to the community and residents of East Hants.

People choose to volunteer for a variety of reasons. For some it offers the chance to give something back to the community or make a difference to the people around them. For others it provides an opportunity to develop new skills or build on existing experience and knowledge. You are doing good for others and the community, which provides a natural sense of accomplishment. Your role as a volunteer can also give you a sense of pride and identity.
Milford Recreation has been going strong for 55 years and it could not, and would not happen without you, the MRA volunteers.
