Recognition and Awards - Hometown Heroes

print this page

Hometown Heroes Night is the Boothbay Harbor Club’s response to the tragedy of September 11. What if, club members said, tragedy should strike home and we should lose a First Responder? And what if that loss was compounded with the realization that we had never properly thanked that emergency services worker for all that he/she did for our community?

Every year since 2001 the Rotary Club has hosted a special night to honor all the local emergency services teams in the Boothbay Region: fire, police, communications, ambulance services, emergency management and the Coast Guard. Click here for photos of recent festivities
