Terry Leivers,
District 1220 Rotary Foundation Chairman,
said
"It was delightful to see
Arnold presented with the
District Foundation Award
by
DG Tony Stimpson
at the
District Handover
for his work with the Foundation. However, this was followed by
the well deserved award of a
Paul Harris Sapphire Pin
and it was a rare occasion to see
Arnold
speechless!"

COMMUNITY AWARD: Many
people go out of their way to help their fellow citizens, often
receiving little or no recognition for their efforts.
In 1998
our
Club established an award for service to the community to give
the general public an opportunity of thanking those people whose
good works might otherwise go unnoticed. The recipient of the
award is selected from nominations submitted by the general
public. In this way, the Rotary Club’s Community Service Award
facilitates the public’s appreciation of meritorious voluntary
service in the community.
This year’s award was presented to
Mrs. Kathryn Wood
on Thursday 3 June 2010.
Kath has been in the
Guide Movement
since she joined as a Brownie. She has held various posts in the
Guide Movement, including that of
District Commissioner.
Kath has a wonderful, caring attitude towards young
people and her influence over many
years, on literally hundreds of girls, has been tremendous. Photo in

An impressive Well-Dressing was produced this year and
attracted a lot of favourable comments (and generous donations to our
charities) when displayed during the Spring bank Holiday.
