You’ve got to hand it to the Marblehead Rotary—we certainly like to stay involved. Looking back at our recent calendar, two events in particular offer a glimpse into the heart of what we do. First, there’s the stuff of local legend: Our Easter Egg Hunt—10,000 chocolate eggs, gone in five minutes! This morning at Seaside, the grounds were a sea of excited children and—true to our tradition—500 toothbrushes, thanks to Rotarian Corine Barone. With our mascots, Dolly the Chick, Cory the Bunny, and Donny the Duck, presiding over the chaos, we celebrated a decades-long legacy of simple fun. And just like that, the fields were left exactly as we found them: green and clean.
But our work often extends to those moments the whole town feels called to support. On March 29, Marblehead Rotarians and the Interact Club were proud to cheer for Superhero JJ. Watching him in his roaring red sports car, surrounded by dozens of caped heroes, was a poignant milestone for everyone involved. To JJ Weiss and the Make-A-Wish Foundation: Marblehead was honored to celebrate you.
Whether we are upholding a town tradition for the kids or showing up for a neighbor when it matters most, we are just grateful to be part of our community’s most important stories.
