As many of you have seen and commented favorably on, our Flags for Heroes displays are flying at locations in Colchester and Milton. We are celebrating our heroes - soldiers, medical personnel, teachers, community workers, and veterans - by displaying flags in their honor. Flags are displayed during holidays at Dick Mazza’s General Store in Mallets Bay, Charlebois Trucking in Milton, Dr. Hayes's Office at Severance Corners, and at 12 business sponsor locations.
The Colchester Milton Rotary would like to invite you to attend a Community Forum on “School Safety – Protecting our Children” to be held on Thursday, June 2, 2022 @ 11:45 AM at the Hampton Inn”. This Forum was inspired by a Commentary by Mitch Wertlieb, on Vermont Public Radio on May 26, 2022, entitled “This is Not the Sports Report”.
Please help The Colchester-Milton Rotary ‘Fill The Truck’ with food for local families who need your support to be hunger-free in 2022.
A study by the Vermont Foodbank and Feeding America shows that 1 in 4 people, or an estimated 153,000 people, in Vermont turn to food shelves and meal service programs to feed themselves and their families. This includes 33,900 children and 26,010 seniors.

Congratulations to the Milton High School Rotary Interact Club for a successful winter gear drive. They held the drive in December and January and the winter gear is destined to go to the Refugee Resettlement Program via Paul Somerville, the pastor who spoke at our Veteran’s Day Flags for Heroes event.
