Hurricane Milton battered the state with heavy rainfall, high winds, storm surge and 41 tornadoes (possibly up to 20 in the Treasure and Space Coast alone). In true Marine Bank fashion, our team stepped up locally to lend a hand. Among them were Tina Nicholson and Joe Coakley who joined the Sunrise Rotary Vero in helping people clean up, remove water damaged drywall, and sort their belongings. Tenaya Moulton volunteered for Operation BBQ Relief and helped feed storm victims.
