Last month the Simsbury-Granby Rotary Club presented checks from its Happy Dollar fund to the Holcomb Farm and to the Granby Community Fund. As club president Patrick Slater said as he presented the checks, “This is my favorite part of this job.”
The local Rotary has several fund raising events throughout the year, but the club’s Happy Dollar source is unusual.
The Connecticut Airport Authority and Travelers Aid has announced that in October, Travelers Aid International began serving the passengers of Bradley International Airport as the operator of the guest service volunteer program at the airport. Travelers Aid now operates the Information Center in Terminal A on the lower level, which is the baggage claim level.
I wish to thank the Granby Senior Center, especially Lori Blackburn, and the Valley Brook Community Church for the special veterans’ tribute concert featuring the Governor’s Foot Guard Band on Nov. 8.
McLean graduated ten new volunteers in October, adding to the dedicated team that supports the McLean Hospice program. The McLean Hospice Volunteer program currently includes 50 volunteers from varied backgrounds who want to contribute purposefully to the com- munity.
November is a special time for Wells Road School, when we invite veterans who may be either family members or members of the community to come for breakfast and be a part of our assembly. The students practiced the official song for each branch of service, which they sang to honor guests on Nov. 12.
The Granby Artists Association announces the opening of its gallery at 2 Park Place. Located in the center of Granby, the Granby Artists Association’s goal is to open the gallery to the public on Nov.
Middle School Open Rec: Thursday, Dec. 27, from 6 to 8 p.m. and Friday, Dec.
The GMHS Grad Night event, held at the Granby YMCA every year on graduation night, offers a free, funfilled, substance-free celebration. This can’t happen without volunteers to help with food, room set up, decorations and chaperoning.
