Fellow Emmaus Rotarians, As a follow up to the announcement I made at our club meeting last week regarding our Emmaus Club International Women's Day Celebration Awards, I would like to clarify that our club gives two Awards: 1) The Rotarian Award to a woman Rotarian from a Rotary Club in Areas 1 and 2 (the Lehigh Valley), and 2) the Community Award to a woman from the Lehigh Valley. 1. Rotarian Award - Only the Club President can nominate a Rotarian from their club; however, Rotarians from that club can make recommendations to the President. A letter was mailed to all the Areas 1 and 2 club Presidents to submit nominations. 2. Community Award - Only us, Rotarians from the Emmaus Club, can nominate a woman from the community for this Award. You should have received the nomination information either at the November 21 or December 5 meetings if you were present and picked it up as they were circulated around the tables, or by US Mail if you were not there or did not pick it up. The deadline for nominations is January 21. If you have any questions about this Award, please do not hesitate to e-mail me or call me at my cell phone 610-392-5134. Our Committee looks forward to receiving your nominations for the Community Award. Thank you for your support. Yours in Rotary Service. Alicia Ruiz-Orbin IWDC Committee Chair |
