“06880” Podcast: Rick Benson

Posted on August 25, 2025 | 2 Comments

Rick Benson wears many hats. He is “Mr. Rotary” in Westport, overseeing everything from LobstersFest to projects around the world.

He has also served on many town boards, the United Way, YMCA, Boy Scouts, and not one but two Congregational churches.

I could have listed many more accomplishments when I introduced him at our recent “06880” podcast, but I preferred to spend the time chatting.

    He also served in the US Navy and STILL fits into his uniform. A real asset to Westport and its development and growth.

    Bravo Rick! Westport has so much to thank him for. Makes me even more proud to be a Rotarian!
