End of Year BBQ and Celebration

Over sixty Rotarians and guests gathered at the home of Joe and Anne Guedes to celebrate the end of another successful Rotary year and enjoy fellowship and great food. The weather was perfect, the steaks and salmon delicious, and the refreshments flowed. Highlights of the event, over and above the general good times, were the presentation of a Service Above Self Award to Paul Clifford for his continued support of The Rotary Foundation, the Dundas Valley Foundation and his community work with HAARP; a Paul Harris Award to Harold Gruneberg; and, the Presidential Citation and Lighthouse Award accepted by President Bruce Eccles on behalf of the club. Bruce also thanked everyone for a fantastic year and for helping him through a difficult time after his accident. He received a standing ovation as the club's show of support and appreciation for his work as president.
