President Denise Traill announced that she had the honour and privilege to award two Paul Harris Fellowships and called forward David Pine and Nick Walmsley in turn. DG Marilyn Stevens kindly presented the badges.
📷📷She congratulated David for almost thirty years of service and thanked him for his contributions to such events as the 4x4 Safari, the bookfairs, plantings, the garden tour, and for doing guest speaker write-ups for three years.
She offered congratulations to Nick for his service and thanked him for the contributions made in his year of the inaugural Graeme Press RYLA Award, the start of a new Whitby Probus Club and for receiving the District 9940 Public Image Award for the Teardrop Campaign, among others. Following his thanks, Nick suggested that Rotary International might take advantage of the message given at the Royal Coronation when King Charles III had emphasised service to the community.
