Sesquicentennial celebrations

During Milton's Sesquicentennial (150 year) celebration in 1967, the Brothers of the Brush formed. In April, the Brothers of the Brush vowed not to shave their facial hair until Sesquicentennial Week in June. During Sesquicentennial Week, a beard judging competition occurred, awarding participant's beards in ten different categories.
