Putting the “lookout” into Midden Lookout Park

EXCITING NEWS! As of May 21st, we have launched a Sustainable CT Community Match Fund crowdfunding campaign to build the Wildlife Viewing Shelter at the Midden!

Visit our Lookout Fundraising site to learn about the project, donate and/or volunteer to get involved!

We need to raise at least $6,000 from at least 60 generous supporters in 30 days to get the full benefit of matching funds.

If you are not familiar with this project, welcome to the effort! We have more details about the project published on the dedicated webpage under Initiatives > Midden Lookout Park and Trails.

On April 8th, Middletown Common Council members heard final public comments from the community and unanimously approved this change!
