Weston-Wayland Rotary Christmas Tree Sale
The Rotary Club of Weston and Wayland will be selling Holiday trees at Land's Sake farm in Weston on Fridays, Saturdays and Sundays between Thanksgiving and Christmas (or until we sell out).  
 
All proceeds will go to college scholarships for Weston and Wayland high school seniors, and our conservation, food security and other charitable projects.
 
We are looking for volunteers to help us sell the trees and, of course, to get a tree!  Sign up here to volunteer. There are two 3-hour shifts a day from 9am - 3pm on Fridays, Saturdays and Sundays until we sell out. 
 
It's fun, fellowship, and usually a hot cuppa something and snacks. 
 
Note: With the very dry weather, some Massachusetts Christmas Tree farms are not cutting their trees, so supplies may be tight and prices may be high.

Multiple Refugee Families Assisted by Southborough Club Coat Collection
Thanks to the Southborough Rotary Club, about a dozen refugee families staying in a Westborough hotel will now have warm coats this season. Rotary members quickly mobilized to collect new and gently used coats tailored to the sizes and preferences of each family member. Volunteers spent hours ensuring every detail was addressed. Many members even added personal, handwritten notes to welcome the families and brighten their day. As new families arrive and others transition to permanent housing, the need for support continues. Yet again, Rotary’s motto, SERVICE Above Self, has proven true.
