Join the City of Mill Creek for a summer of family-friendly fun!
The Mill Creek community is invited to participate in two summer events hosted by the City of Mill Creek in local City parks. The series aims to provide family-friendly fun, allowing everyone to get out of the house and get to know their community again.
