Today we recognize and celebrate the retirement of a MILS legend, Fred 😄💜 We thank you for your 12 years of dedication to bettering those in our community! Your silly pranks and jokes, endless rounds of card games, and love for Vikings (hate for the Packers?) will be missed at the Garage. You've made a difference and left an impact - wishing you all the best in your next chapter!
In true Fred fashion, we celebrated with a Homecoming Tailgate Party 🏈

We are deeply saddened to share the news of the loss of our dear friend Michelle. For over 10 years, Michelle was an important part of MILS —not only cleaning our spaces, but also touching our lives with her kindness, dedication, and bright spirit.

Our hearts are with her loved ones during this difficult time. Michelle will be deeply missed by all of us at MILS.

She’s not just any scarecrow—she’s a fairy-tale princess with a twist (and a bag of Taco Bell in hand 🌮🥤). You can find her holding court at the Faxon Farms in Henderson, MN! 🎃🌽

Stop by, snap a pic, and don’t forget to vote for Taco Belle—because she’s nacho average princess! 👑🌮
