HELP HONOR THE LAST DAY OF THE CANTON MILLWORKERS!

The Town of Canton invites EVERYONE to come out and honor the American Millworker as the final employees (representing all workers past and present) walk through the Shute (the long entrance at the front of the mill facing Bridge Street) for the final time.

“We encourage everyone to make signs of support and help us applaud all the workers for their dedication and years of service not only to this mill but this community. These workers have helped to instill the grit and grace that will be evident in this Milltown Strong town for generations to come.”
♥️ Everyone is encouraged to tie a red, white, and blue patriotic ribbon on their trees, cars, doors, mailboxes, etc. in support for all the workers in both mill locations.
Everyone is welcome to stand on Bridge St. (which will be closed from the Lamp Factory to Newfound St.) and the section of road in front of the shute.
