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.

Thank you all so much
