The Blythewood Rotary Club recognized three of its members as Paul Harris Fellows earlier this month. The award is named for Paul Harris who founded the Rotary Club in 1905.
During the Dec. 2 meeting, Rotarian Derek Saxby, left, pinned the three award recipients (pictured to the right of Saxby): Bill Talbert, Ted Von Keller and John Hancock.
Rotary established the recognition in 1957 to encourage and show appreciation for substantial contributions to what was then the Foundation’s only program, Rotary Foundation Fellowships for Advanced Study, the precursor to Ambassadorial Scholarships.
