What occurs when two talented college students immerse themselves in local government for a summer? It’s much more than just coffee runs and filing paperwork.

Luke and Maddie, familiar from an earlier episode of the City’s podcast, “Milton & Mane,” are the bright minds driving some of Milton’s most impactful summer projects. In this season finale episode, they detail their enriching internship experience.

From mastering the specialized language of community development to translating big-picture visions into specific details like pavement types and signage regulations, they navigated the complexities of local governance. They even contributed to launching projects that enable residents to track the City’s strategic plan progress in real-time.

Interested in applying for next year’s program? Applications will open in January 2026 for this exciting 10-week summer opportunity.
