On December 18, the Golden Mile Alliance participated in a wreath contest at City Hall. Visitors cast votes for their favorites raising over $450.00 for Second Chances Garage, Inc. – a local non-profit that provides low-cost reliable transportation and repairs to low income families in Frederick County.
We might be biased but we think Golden Mile Alliance wreath outshone the competition.
Happy Holidays from all of us at Golden Mile Alliance

We have a new member of the Golden Mile Community – Pollo Campero opens for business on August 30, 2019. Pollo Campero opened it first restaurant in 1971 in Guatemala. It was, and still is, a family business – started by the Gutierrez family with one desire – to serve the best tasting chicken possible. They started with a tiny restaurant and a prized recipe for chicken passed down from generation to generation. Hundreds of restaurants later, their passion remains the same: to serve the best tasting chicken meals possible. Their flavor is what sets them apart from other restaurants.
Stop by and welcome Pollo Campero to the Golden Mile!
