After an excellent lunch President Paul presented Rotarians Brian Withers and Richard Manning each with Paul Harris Fellowships in recognition of their extraordinary service to Rotary and the local community. The awarding of a Paul Harris Fellowship is the highest personal honour any Rotary Club can bestow. The award is named after Paul P Harris who founded the Rotary movement in 1905. Such is the importance of this award that in the 70 years since being formed in 1954 the Rotary Club of Wellington has presented only forty-nine Fellowships, including six to non-Rotarians.
On behalf of the members of Wellington Rotary Club, President Paul thanked the staff of the Beambridge Inn for their excellent service to the Club over the past twelve months. He closed the meeting by wishing everyone a Merry Christmas and a happy and healthy 2025.
