The opinions expressed by visitors to the city's page do not reflect the opinions of the City of Milton. The City of Milton, the county seat of Santa Rosa County, is located near the center of this western Florida Panhandle county, adjacent to the Blackwater River. The City of Milton is among the oldest cities in Florida, incorporated in 1844 under the Florida Territorial Acts of 1844. In founding days, the Blackwater River served as the main transportation artery for timber, lumber, brick, naval stores and ship building industries. Milton roots go back to the early 1800's when people began settling along the banks of the river. In its earliest days, the settlement may have been referred to simply as "Blackwater." The origin of the name Milton is uncertain, but was likely a derivation of "Milltown," demonstrating the importance of the lumber industry in the area. Legend has it that the area was also referred to by one of its most irritating features: the brambles and briars that once grew along the banks of the river.

Well Bands Fans, the rain is back again.

Our stage is soaked, our grounds are muddy, and we are expecting another wave of rain before 4:00 PM.

Because we always want to offer you the best shows we can, we are unfortunately going to need to cancel tonight's show.

That said, we will be working to reschedule Kacy Moon so please stay tuned!

Also, if anyone is hungry for some BBQ - Outlaw BBQ & Eatery will still be setup on site tonight on account of them already having prepared a bunch of food.
