Wow, what a weekend for Area 4!
At last weekend's District Conference, the
five Rotary clubs in our area brought home a total of 16
District Awards as well as 3 Presidential Citations.
While our clubs represent only 10% of the clubs in the District,
this represents 36% of the total awards handed
out at the event.
And NC Rotary certainly did our part as well! Honestly, I started
Sunday morning hoping we'd at least win one award (especially
after all of the midnight oil poured into the Call for Recognition
packet). Instead, I was pleasantly surprised when our name
was called FIVE times. This includes winning
awards for Community Service, International
Service Project, Vocational Service Project,
Club Bulletin, and the coveted Club
of Excellence!

Although I had the pleasure of representing our club at the
Fizzarama
to accept the awards, I want to thank
ALL OF YOU
for helping to make the Nevada City Rotary Club so
excellent!
Special thanks to
PE Nancy Kemp,
pP Don
Fultz & Georgann,
Pete & Nancy Brost,
Eleanor Kenitzer, and
Cathy Wilcox-Barnes
for attending.
But that's not all. pP Fultzee received an
exceptional award on Saturday night: the Rotary International
Service Above Self Award. The purpose of this award
is to recognize individual Rotarians who have demonstrated exemplary
humanitarian service with an emphasis on personal volunteer
efforts and active involvement in helping others through Rotary.
This is RI's highest honor for individual Rotarians with a maximum
of 150 recipients chosen each year. Congratulations,
Fultzee!
In Service Above Self, President David "The Kidd"
