ODYSSEY
This is the name of our Greek Festival that is held on Labor Day Weekend. Volunteers are always needed in every area of the festival. The Festival Chairperson, appointed by the Parish Council and assisted by area coordinators, stages an attractive four-day event on the Church grounds. The necessary labor is provided voluntarily by members of the Saint Barbara Community.

DUCK POND DAY CARE CENTER
Our community has leased out the first floor of former Holy Infant House to Duck Pond Day Care that has programs available for children for six weeks of age to five years. Duck Pond Day Care was established in Milford in 1993 to fill an apparent need for quality child care and has continued to maintain a reputation in the industry as having centers whose philosophy is family centered and educationally based. The curriculum includes activities that help develop social skills, independence, self-esteem, language and school readiness. Computers are also used to help preschoolers. Parishioners of Saint Barbara who enroll their children are entitled to a 15% discount.
