On June 22, President Geoff and Membership Director Gord attended the District 7070 annual awards banquet, held in Oshawa.

It was here that our club received multiple awards and recognition, including one for District Leadership (Gord) and a Foundation Citation for reaching 180% of our target of funds raised to eradicate polio.

Quinte Sunrise also received a Presidential Citation from Rotary International President KR (Ravi) Ravindran. With 53 clubs in District 7070, we were only one of six to achieve this incredible accomplishment. Better yet, we received the Gold standard for exceeding the targets set out by Rotary International.

At our club meeting the next morning, President Geoff presented our Citation to Vice President Alison Ebbs, to thank her for her work behind the scenes and online to ensure we met the goals.

We are small but mighty, and all members should be proud of their contributions and our achievements in this Rotary year. We are extremely proud and thankful for the recognition.
