"The Roundup is one of my favorite events all year," said Milton Mayor Joe Lockwood. "I've enjoyed watching it grow and seeing the sense of community and excitement our visitors bring to it every year."

Admission is free, as is on-site parking. Click here for directions to Birmingham United Methodist Church. (Note: If employing a GPS device, use 15770 Birmingham Highway Milton GA 30004).

The first 250 entrants receive a free T-shirt, which will be available at the main information tent. Come early to take advantage of this offer, as supplies will go fast.

This year's blowout includes the Milton Herald Green Team Children's Activity Tent featuring a host of activities brought to the community by Milton Grows Green and the Milton Neighbor entertainment stage offering live performances throughout the day.

Of course, don't forget about the acres of free activities, including a rock wall, moonwalk, bungee station and, of course, the event's signature mechanical bull. And bring cash for all the great food and additional activities like the helicopter rides, petting zoo and pony carousel.
