Colchester-Milton Rotary Honors Veterans and Community Heroes

Colchester-Milton Rotary Honors Veterans and Community Heroes Amid Snowstorms

Despite a fierce snowstorm blanketing the area, Colchester-Milton Rotary hosted its sixth annual Veterans Day ceremony in Milton. Due to the inclement weather, the truck showroom at Charlebois was transformed into a powerful gathering space for honoring local veterans and heroes. The event showcased the resilience and dedication that define Milton’s community spirit and was a yearly culmination of the Rotary Club’s “Flags for Heroes” project, according to Chuck Ginsburg, Rotary chairperson for this project and master of ceremonies for the event.

Spreading Cheer with Holiday Baskets

For nearly half a century, the Colchester Holiday Basket Project has brought warmth and cheer to local families and seniors during the holiday season. What began in the 1970's with two local teachers filling boxes for students' families in need has grown into a cherished community tradition led by the Colchester-Milton Rotary Club.

The Colchester Milton Rotary welcomes Eric Axelrod, Founder/CEO of Wood 4 Good

The Colchester Milton Rotary welcomes Eric Axelrod, Founder/CEO of Wood 4 Good, as our featured speaker.

In 2019, Eric Axelrod and his two young sons, Devin and Logan, realized they had more firewood than they needed. They decided to give the extra wood to neighbors in need. After one delivery, Devin told his father:
“I want to do wood for good every day.” That idea - giving away surplus firewood to warm people’s homes - was the seed for Wood4Good.
