The Rotary Club of Glenferrie has been awarded a Rotary International Rotary Citation with Platinum Distinction for the year 2019-2020. This is the second year in a row that the club has been honoured with this award.
In an email to Past President Thelma Hutchison and President 2020-2021 Mark Ellis AM advising of the award, Past District Governor Grant Hocking wrote: "The Rotary Citation recognises Rotary clubs that support Rotary strategic priorities by completing certain activities. The Rotary Citation is a significant award that honours clubs whose leaders and members show a commitment to success. Clubs that achieve the goals required to earn the Rotary Citation are strengthening Rotary and shaping our future.
For the 2019-2020 year, clubs could also receive the Rotary Citation with Distinction when they achieve the Rotary Citation plus one to three additional goals under the headings; Connect leaders, connect families, connect professionally, and connect community (SILVER (1 goal), GOLD (2 goals), or PLATINUM (3 goals)). The Rotary Club of Glenferrie has been awarded a Platinum Distinction.
The Certificate will be presented to the club by Past District Governor Grant Hocking at a future club meeting.
Sincere congratulations to Past President Thelma, the club board for 2019-2020 and members of the Rotary Club of Glenferrie for a year of outstanding achievement.
