MILTON — On a sunny Saturday, June 28, the third annual Revved Up for Youth car show rolled into downtown Milton, lining Merchant Row with classic cars, community members, and stories as vibrant as the vehicles themselves.
More than 20 cars showed up for the event, which originally had only three pre-registered the day before—an overwhelming show of support for the Milton Area Youth Center (MAYC), the beneficiary and host of the dayÃÛèÖÊÓƵ festivities.
