After a two-year hiatus caused by the pandemic's restrictions, New Milford Day returned to the State Capitol. State Representative Billy Buckbee thanked local businesses, services, and programs representatives who showed up in Hartford.  Buckbee says from baby goats, to innovative childcare programs, New Milford has a little bit to offer to everyone. He addressed his legislative colleagues on the House Floor while holding a baby goat named Catherine.

Buckbee also recognized Police K-9 Drake who recently passed away. He presented Chief Spencer Cerruto with a citation to memorialize the dog's service to the community, and welcomed the newest K-9 officer Mattis.

Participants from New Milford included:
Bagel Barn
New Milford Girl Scouts
Pratt Nature Center
Create a Castle
New Milford Police Department
Goatboy Soaps
Kimberly-Clark
