LACONIA — Prescott Farm Environmental Education Center recently appointed Bob Ewell to the board of directors. Ewell, a volunteer and active member, looks forward to assisting the nonprofit with networking in the community and facilities management.
A Laconia resident and New England native, Ewell retired in 2014 after a 40-year career of teaching and coaching in northeast high schools and colleges. Ewell is a member and past president of the Lakes Region Rotary Club.
Ewell’s connection to Prescott Farm began 10 years ago when he was coordinator of a local Rotary-lead youth leadership program teaching future leaders from high schools around the Lakes Region about community service. The group contributes a day of service to Prescott Farm every year. In 2015, Ewell and members of the Lakes Region Rotary Club helped build elements of Prescott Farm’s Natural PlayScape, and in 2019 Ewell served on a committee to grow volunteer engagement.
“Bob’s commitment to community service is unsurpassed and we are thrilled that he is stepping up to this leadership role,” said Prescott Farm Executive Director Jude Hamel. “From his experiences teaching and coaching to rolling up his sleeves and diving into projects at Prescott Farm, Bob displays incredible dedication to the Lakes Region. He’s truly a perfect fit for our organization.”
