New Year’s Eve Millbrook (Aired on December 17 and 18, 2016)




RadioRotary show

Summary: Rotarian<br> Joyce Heaton<br> (Millbrook Rotary), who has chaired the annual<br> event New Year’s Eve Millbrook for 13 years, describes the family-friendly way that the Millbrook community and visitors celebrate the last day of each year—with music, puppets, circus and magic acts, and other entertainments. Many local foundations, businesses, and<br> individuals fund the free event, but it is run almost entirely by volunteers from Millbrook Rotary. Each year patrons can donate a small sum to obtain a lighted button that incorporates a design by a local student. The RadioRotary interview also describes some of the<br> many other activities of Millbrook Rotary, which range from annual publication of a business directory for Millbrook and the surrounding communities through provision of local school children with school supplies their families might be able to afford to donations of free<br> dictionaries and other books to local schools. The club also helps fund local organizations and international projects.
