Description
Join Mason Mile Rocks, MADE CDC, and the Sons of the American Legion (SAL) for the first Make the Mile event of 2026 as we celebrate America’s 250th birthday in a creative and community-centered way!
We’re kicking off our America 250 efforts by painting patriotic rocks that will be placed in rock gardens along the Mason Mile throughout the year. These colorful creations will help make the Mile more fun, active, and beautiful while honoring this historic milestone.
Stop by early to support the Sons of the American Legion by enjoying breakfast, then stay and paint your own red-white-and-blue rock. A portion of the painted rocks will be proudly displayed near the American Legion flagpole, with others featured in Mile rock gardens.
All ages and skill levels are welcome—just bring your creativity and community spirit. Let’s paint the Mile and celebrate 250 years of America together!
