Robert Ball---Rotarian of the Year & Paul Harris awardee

At last our tireless Treasurer, Conference Master of all Trades, and perennial software support centre was formally recognised by the club for his wonderful efforts since he joined the Rotary Club of Hawthorn a few years back. 

At the last meeting Robert Ball was given the shield for Rotarian of the Year,  and not to be sold short was awarded a Paul Harris Fellowship with Sapphire. No member would have contemplated anything less.

I am not sure of the source of Rob's energy, maybe it is the pre-packaged but nutritionally balanced food which he ingests on a rigid schedule.   As for his ever helpful demeanour and direct efficiency is that a result of an alcohol limited diet, or a natural attribute of his being and sex? 

Congratulations Robert and yes the Albury Conference has indeed concluded.
