Meet the Owners.

      Milestone Event Center is a labor of love for our owners, and each member of their family has had a hand laying the floor, painting the walls, or building the website to be a place their guests can relax and celebrate with friends and family.
     Owners Kristie, Brent, and Frank realized their communities needed a large, renovated event space while planning fundraising events for their children's school districts. Shortly after, they bought the building and transformed it into a space fit for weddings, grad parties, school events, community gatherings, and corporate events.
     We are proud to offer a venue for all your Milestone celebrations, and we sincerely hope you enjoy our large, inviting space.  As owners, we strive to maintain a space you and your guests will enjoy and remember for years to come. ​

Established in 2019

Milestone was established in 2019. The building was first used as a Moose Lodge then later rented out by a local church. While Milestone purchased the venue, the owners and their families quickly got to work to the building and transform ever part of the interior into a high-end venue space. The Edwards, Jarret, and Johnston families are grateful to the local business that contributed to the transformation, and to their numerous relatives who spent holidays and weekends painting walls and laying floor boards. After a year of work, the owners proudly opened the facility in Feb. 2020. We hope you enjoy our story.
