Rotary Continues To Work During the Winter

Autumn turned to winter, and while Omicron resulted in the cancellation of some of its regular dinner meetings, it soon became clear that the Suffield Rotary members were not willing to go into hibernation. To the contrary, its dedication to “service above self” resulted in two very busy winter months.

Bumpy Neighborhood Repaved

Soon it would be too cool to pave, but the temperature in late October, 2021, provided the opportunity for one more batch of milling and repaving in a program that had gone on all summer.

New Chief and Captain Sworn In

Introducing a new police chief and a new police captain at the same time is a rare occurrence, so the Suffield Police Commission held their official swearing in on Thursday evening, January 6, in the high school auditorium, allowing a bit of extra ceremony and giving the expected audience the opportunity to avoid crowding, if they wished.

Aid Heads for Storm Victims

In an act of generous citizenship, residents of Suffield and others who heard about the plan have donated a large supply of household and personal items to help the victims of the severe wind storm and tornadoes in mid-December that devastated a large region of the South, mainly in Kentucky.
