Recipients Worldwide through 2013

DG Jeffrey Pelkey presenting The Service Above Self award to PDG Elias Thomas III

Thursday, May 13, 2010 Sanford-Springvale Rotary Club, York Rotary Club and the Kittery Rotary Club joined the Rotary Club of South Berwick-Eliot for a regional meeting at Spring Hill in South Berwick, Maine. District Governor Jeff Pelkey took the podium to talk about Rotary’s highest award. Every year the District Governors submit about 2000 nominations, and each year only about 100 or less are awarded by Rotary International. With over 530 Districts around the world most do not get a recipient. DG Jeff then called upon PDG Elias Thomas III to come forward and presented him with Rotary International’s “Service Above Self” Award.

Everyone congratulated Elias and recognized that he lives and breathes Rotary; giving of himself at all corners of the globe, while just as willing to help local clubs around our own District.
