Milford Rotarians Lunch at Milford Youth Center

  Great meeting last week as Rotarians went on the road to visit the Milford Youth Center. We enjoyed a sandwich lunch with Director Sidney DeJesus and Assistant Director Jennifer Ward and learned a lot about the important role the Center plays in the daily lives of so many young people. The staff presented an enthusiastic report while sharing their concerns about the need for the community to invest in the building to make it a safe, fun and useful place for years to come.

 Following the working lunch, we were given an amazing tour of the huge three-story building that needs some major repairs but in the still being used by hundreds of kid’s everyday. The staff, directors and volunteers are getting a lot out of that precious, historic old building. Seems like every corner is being used for some significant activity. Well worth a visit. You will be amazed at all the options being offered.

 It’s not just a “place to hang out”. It is so much more. It’s a hubbub of productive activity.
