Rotary presents Paul Harris Fellow Awards

At a recent meeting of the Neillsville Rotary Club, District Governor Kristin Duckart presented Paul Harris Fellow Awards to Michael Lacey, Robert Venne and John Scaletta.  The award is named after the founder of Rotary International and is given to individuals who have made contributions to Rotary through their volunteer work and financial contributions.  Awardees receive a certificate, pin and medallion.  Paul Harris Fellowship contributions have been used to fund Rotary International’s campaign to eliminate polio, provide fellowships for young international scholars and initiate projects such as well-building in third world countries.  Pictured are all the Paul Harris Fellows in the Neillsville Club (l-r) Michael Lacey, John Scaletta, Henry Lukes, Kristin Duckart, Robert Lulloff, Lowell Gesche, Darrel Poeschel and Robert Venne.
