This award recognizes a Rotarian who exemplifies Service Above Self, consistently lives the Four-Way Test, and demonstrates exceptional commitment to Rotary beyond the club level. The recipient is expected to show meaningful involvement in district initiatives, contributing significantly to district goals, projects, and events while also providing leadership, reliability, and dedication to advancing Rotary’s mission.
