The number of trees planted by the Rotary Club of Robbinsville Hamilton in our communities sprouted by two this morning as club members installed a Weeping Willow in Hamilton’s Sayen Gardens and an Eastern redbud in the Miry Run Recreation Area on Sharon Road in Robbinsville.
This is the fifth consecutive year the club has added to the area landscape in a conservation program coordinated by Rotarian Joe Cavone in consultation with the respective townships.
Since 2022 - the club’s 30th Anniversary - the club has planted 14 trees and four bushes.
The Rotary planting crew today included (left to right in top photo) - President Joe Bellina, George Ott, Tom Damm, Sharon Lucidi, Joe Cavone and Roger Moore.
Our thanks to both township recreation departments for their assistance.

Nearly 300 flags - a record number exceeding the anticipated 250 - are flying strong at the intersection near Robert Wood Johnson University Hospital Hamilton in this year’s Rotary Flags for Heroes display.
The flags, which honor heroes in the lives of area residents and businesses, will be on display at the corner of Klockner and Whitehorse-Hamilton Square roads through November 13.
As the flags were being placed today, passersby in cars - and even a Hamilton firetruck - sounded their horns in approval, giving thumbs up and at least one “They look great!” shoutout.
A big thanks to our generous flag sponsors and to Hamilton Township for providing the lights that illuminate the flags at night.
And a round of applause for our volunteers from Sewa International South Jersey and All for Dance in Robbinsville who joined our Rotary Club of Robbinsville Hamilton members in putting up the flags.
Special kudos to Rotarians George Ott, Joe Cavone and Marilyn Silverman for their leadership on this project.
Stop by and read the heartfelt messages on the big boards and on the individual medallions attached to each flag. And join us on the hospital grounds on Saturday, Nov. 7 at 11 a.m. for a Field Dedication and Veterans Day Ceremony.

We appreciate Chick and Nello’s Homestead Inn on Kuser Road in Hamilton for providing the appropriate setting for our club meeting this morning as Club Past President George Ott told the fascinating story of the Kuser Family’s far-reaching business and philanthropic activities.
After Rudolph Kuser achieved success in Newark with a game-changing steam engine for small businesses, he purchased a large farm in Hamilton (on which the Homestead Inn now sits). His son, Fred, later bought an adjacent property that became Kuser Mansion.
Business ventures by his sons involved b**r brewing, early automobiles (George arrived today in his 1920 canary-colored, Mercer Automobiles Raceabout sports car), trolleys, gas and electric power (that led to the establishment of PSE&G), ice and coal deliveries, Lenox china, racetracks and movie-making, among others.
The family’s legacy also helped establish the New Jersey Audubon Society, finance and guide St. Francis Hospital in Trenton and its charitable efforts, and create High Point State Park and its World War I memorial.
Hats off to George for an amazing presentation and to Peter Rosati of the Homestead Inn for hosting us.

Our Rotary Club presented the Mercer Street Friends Food Bank with a check for $911. The funds were the financial contributions from the shoppers at Foley's Family Market in Hamilton during Rotary’s two 2026 food drives. Accepting the check on behalf of the Food Bank were James "Butter" Allen and Hope Martin.
In addition to the cash from shoppers, the two drives generated 1,422 pounds of food. At the Food Bank yesterday, Rotarians packed 2,256 meals for the Send Hunger Packing program for Mercer County children.
A big thank you to Rotarian Paul Neu (presenting the check) for organizing the food drives and the food packing sessions.

For Rotarian Dr. Nikki Graham, Rotary’s decades-long work to eradicate polio is personal.
Nikki’s mother, June, contracted the disease as a young adult and was in a full leg brace for four years. Nikki’s father-in-law died of the disease.
Nikki, a veterinarian who recently retired as the owner of the Nottingham Animal Hospital in Hamilton, joined the Rotary Club of Robbinsville Hamilton 17 months ago, in part because of Rotary’s polio connection.
“In retirement I was looking to give back to the community and I had some friends in Rotary,” she said. “When I learned of Rotary’s involvement in polio, it was ding, ding, ding, this is for me.”
On Sunday, Nikki coordinated the club’s presence at Hamilton’s Octoberfest, painting pinky nails of festival-goers purple to build awareness of Rotary’s polio prevention efforts. This Saturday is World Polio Day.
Rotary is a founding partner of the Global Polio Eradication Initiative, which has reduced polio cases around the world by 99.9 percent, contributing billions of dollars and countless volunteer hours.
Today, polio, a paralyzing and potentially deadly infectious disease, remains endemic only in Afghanistan and Pakistan while work continues to keep other countries polio-free.
