Boston Post Cane 2021

Roger Campbell, Boston Post Cane Recipient 2021

On June 26, 2021, the Tuftonboro Board of Selectmen, Chip Albee, Bill Marcussen and Guy Pike, had the pleasure of presenting Roger Campbell with the town's Boston Post Cane, given to the eldest known resident of the town to recipients to hold for the rest of his/her days. Roger was surprised and pleased with the recognition. The New England tradition was established in 1909 by the Boston Post newspaper, with a special cane presented to the Selectboards of 431 towns. Campbell was the center of a 100th birthday celebration as well, with his immediate family, including grandsons Jared and Adam, their wives Nicole and Jihane and great grandson Charlie, and more than 40 well wishers.
