After visiting many community projects of the Rotary Club of St. Marys, DG Sonja Glass was kept very busy during her official visit. Besides her official presentation to the club, DG Sonja presented President Charlie Hammond with three club awards.
DG Sonja Glass and Pres Charlie Hammond present a Paul Harris recognition to a non-Rotarian. The club chose to recognize Sheila Greason posthumously for the tremendous contribution she made to our community. Her good friend, Sienna Kainz accepted the award on behalf of Sheila's family.
Our 2nd Paul Harris recognition goes to Rotarian Ron McDonald for reaching the next Paul Harris level, a multiple PH+2 pin, resulting from his donations through the Every Rotarian Every Year.
Our 3rd Paul Harris recognition goes to President Charlie Hammond who was recognized by the club for his many hours of tireless service as Club President since July 1st, 2022.
DG Sonja announced one more special recognition being awarded to Rotarian Gary Cumming.
"I am pleased to take this opportunity to honour Gary Cumming who has generously contributed to the Rotary Foundation, and in so doing has achieved Major Donor status. Because of his dedication to our Foundation, we honour Gary with Major Donor level 1 recognition. Your gift inspires others to give, not just of their gift but of their time and of their talent! In recognition of your investment in The Rotary Foundation's wonderful projects and programs, I present this crystal and Major Donor pin on behalf of The Foundation's Trustees."
DG Sonja also presided over the Presidential Changeover from Charlie Hammond to Mark Oliver as well as the installation of Club Officers and Directors.
