SACO – Milestone Recovery invites the community to join in its annual 60 Miles for Milestone fundraiser on Saturday, Sept. 15 at the Biddeford-Saco Elks Club at 68 Ocean Park Road in Saco.

Tickets for the barbecue only are $20. Tickets for the barbecue and ride are $25 for a single rider, or $30 with a passenger. More information and registration are available at milestone-recovery.org.
