Milford Carnival Set To Open At Fino Field

MILFORD, MA — Get ready to gain a little weigh on fried food, and lose a little money on ring toss.

A carnival will roll into Milford Thursday, offering residents four days of rides, fried dough and tricky games. The event will also be a fundraiser for Milford's annual July 4 festivities, with a portion of the $2 gate fee going to the committee.

The carnival was originally supposed to happen this weekend at Milford High School. The Select Board, however, detoured the event to Fino Field to avoid excess noise and parking problems in the neighborhood around the school.

Apart from the gate fee, attendees can buy individual tickets for rides onsite, or unlimited ride passes ahead of time. Here's the full schedule:

• July 29 5 p.m. to around 10 p.m. Unlimited ride wristbands are $30 online, $35 at the carnival.
• July 30 5 p.m. to around 10 p.m. Wristbands are $40 online, $45 at the carnival.
• July 31 Noon to around 10 p.m. Wristbands are $40 online, $45 at the carnival.
• Aug. 1 Noon to around 8 p.m. Wristbands are $30 online, $35 at the carnival from noon to 4 p.m.; $40 online, $45 at the carnival from 4 to 8 p.m.
