While it is hard to believe, on Friday August 9, at Oak Ridge Golf Course the Suffield Rotary will be sponsoring the 28th Annual Glenn T. Packard Memorial Golf Tournament. For over a quarter of a century, this tournament, memorializing Glenn, has benefitted the Town of Suffield and its athletes.
The Friends of Suffield boosted community service recently when the group awarded its 2019 financial grants to several local organizations.
Rotary Clubs throughout the nation are fighting against the deadly opioid epidemic. Each day, more than 130 people die from opioid-related drug overdoses.
The Suffield Observer owes its existence to a large number of volunteers, as well as other friends who send us news and photos (and opinions!), so we get together occasionally to give thanks.
In the May, Observer issue, we published a partial list of local organizations that welcome volunteers. As we were reminded by readers, there are others that we did not include that are equally deserving of being recognized as fine places to volunteer – actually many, many, others. The list we chose from had more than 60 entries. Aside from the fact that there was not enough time to update all that information, the Observer could not accommodate a list that long. Our plan was, and is, to publish a permanent list on the Observer’s website at https://thesuffieldobserver.com/local-organizations-that-welcome-volunteers/, which ultimately will include all of the others.
