 Milton Open House “Tourists” can pick up Open House Tour Maps at the 422 Chestnut Street listing. Tour participants are asked to follow the map and visit all seven homes and bring the map back to the 422 Chestnut listing, showing stamps from each house tour in order to be entered into the drawings for prizes from one of these well-known Milton businesses: Abraxas Fine Art ($60 Gift Certificate), Salon Milton ($50 Gift Certificate and Goody Bag) and Irish Eyes-Milton ($25 Gift Certificate).
