Congratulations, Sam on a well-deserved PHF + 3
Sam was inducted into our Club in June 2011, 12 years ago and has been a very active member since then. He has served on the Board on multiple occasions and led or actively participated in many of the Club’s committees.
He has served as secretary and Director of Public Image and Public Relations. In these roles he wrote many newspaper articles about the Club’s activities and managed to get most of them published by the Star News Group, a feat not readily achieved by many before him.
Sam has been instrumental in the activities of the Rotary Berwick and District Benevolent Society as its secretary and organiser of the Society’s Christmas Appeal.
Spoken Words, our Club bulletin has been skillfully edited by Sam. Earlier this year when our bulletin editor could no longer undertake the role, I tapped Sam on the shoulder, and he readily accepted the role again. Sam has always been ready to help out.
Other of Sam’s activities have included Membership Director, National Youth Science Forum Chair, the Australia Day committee and our annual Golf Day committee. Hopefully I have not left too many out.
Sam is very community minded, always wears a smile and will step up to help anyone and is always eager to volunteer his time. He always puts in 100% to whatever he does and possesses all the qualities of a PHF recipient in his commitment to Service above Self.
Sam, it gives me great pleasure to present to you, on behalf of the Trustees of The Rotary Foundation, this emblem of a Paul Harris Fellow, that being
This is the 4th Paul Harris Fellow recognition received by Sam.
This has been given to you in recognition of, and appreciation of, tangible and significant assistance given for the furtherance of better understanding and friendly relations between peoples of the world.
