Hanmer Forest Camp Award
Gordon Shields receives award for 31 years service
Our roving reporter has discovered that, at the Annual General Meeting of the Hanmer Forest Camp Trust, Rosemary Ensor (the Chair) presented a plaque to our Treasurer Gordon Shields in appreciation of his 31 years service to the Trust.
Gordon would likely keep this honour to himself but our sharp reporters were on his trail.
The plaque was made by Wayne Street (a former Camp Manager and now vice Chair).
Many of our members spend a significant part of their time in Papanui Rotary roles and projects and often, like Gordon, they also spend time helping other organisations.
The amount of work Gordon does for the Hanmer Forest Camp and for our own club is way beyond what could normally be expected of a volunteer.
The photo above shows Rosemary Ensor with Gordon just after the presentation.
Congratulations Gordon and thank you from all of us.
