The Colchester Milton Rotary Club is excited to announce that we are embarking on a project to recognize our community heroes with Operation Flags for Heroes. Our heroes include our soldiers, healthcare workers, school employees , fire and safety personnel, grocery store employees and community volunteers - all those essential to our daily living.
On Saturday, August 1st Ron Roberge, Ron Lewis, Todd Burgess, Dan Johnson, Kevin Endres and Bob Mohr and I (Sue Mohr) painted the front of the Colchester Food Shelf. Kevin delivered the lift with Stacey and Patrick, The others painted like crazy on the lift and two ladders, while Bob and I offered support and “expert” ground advice. It went quickly and relatively easily (easy for me to say since I was on the ground).
It really felt great to get out and do something to help our community, especially in these limiting times.
