Had a fantastic visit to the Stratford YMCA in celebration of Volunteer Week! I got to thank the dedicated volunteers who make such a big impact, spend some joyful time with the kids in the childcare center, and have meaningful conversations with the leadership team about exciting ideas to improve the facility for everyone. Inspiring people and powerful community spirit all around!
This is so cool.At our April monthly meeting, the Officers of the Echo Hose Hook & Ladder Co. 1 presented a life honored plaque to the family of Kevin Sherman. Kevin joined the Echo Hose in 1975 and served the company for 50 years. He was elected Captain in 1987 and was awarded Firefighter of the Year in 1982. Several company members went on to become career firefighters under his tutelage as auxiliary advisor.
In addition to serving his community as a firefighter, Kevin was a Shelton Police Officer for 25 years. He served on several task forces and specialty units including the training of new officers.
Proud moment today as I attended the swearing-in of State Representative Amy Romano, our new representative for the 113th district — right here in Shelton. I know Amy will be a valuable addition to the House of Representatives and serve Shelton with pride! Congratulations again Amy, I am excited about the progress we will make together!
