This was a great honor since the club was just chartered on November 11, 2014. We are the first chartered club in this district in recent history to receive this award.
Each year the incoming President of Rotary International establishes the criteria that will be used to identify clubs operating at exceptionally high levels of success. The criteria include mandatory club accomplishments as well as optional expectations. Those clubs that qualify are recognized with the Presidential Citation from the Rotary International President. It is important to note that this award is for the work of the entire club, not the work of just the club president or officers. This is a special award and every club member should take pride in the award. For information on the club call Dick Kroese at 825-2226.
