Beef n' Bean Day

Milliken, CO


In honor of the 100th anniversary of Milliken's Beef n' Bean Day, we are embarking on a journey to recognize and celebrate families who have called Milliken their home for a century. Dubbed by MHS as the "100 Year Families" we hope to honor these families that have shaped our community over the coming celebration year. If you belong to or are acquainted with families that have stood the test of time in Milliken we ask for your help! Please contact us at [email protected] with the family names so we can research and compile a history of that family line for the event. Let's come together to honor these pillars of our community and help create memories that will be cherished for generations to come.

Milliken Historical Society has begun the process of displaying Military Banners of any veteran that has been a resident of Milliken, CO at any time. The first four banners are of WWI and WWII veterans that were killed in action. Banners will be displayed on the light poles along Broad Street. 

Visit the Troop Banners Website for more information!


This banner is of Lester March who was the first casualty from Weld County during WWI. Banners will be displayed at least from Memorial Day to Veterans Day each year.
