‘Milestoned’- Rotaractors’ Award Ceremony
In a glittering ceremony held at Sip and Dine, Sector 7, Chandigarh DRR Shubham Rattan gave away recognitions of Rotaractors who excelled in service from the various clubs of District 3080 on June 14, 2017.
A vocal music contest among five of the district‟s most talented Rotaract singers set the tone for the event. One got the impression that Shubham did not leave even a single act of service unrecognized.
PDG Shaju Peter who was the Guest of Honour on the occasion said, “Pursuit of excellence would characterize the persona of every Rotaractor who would walk up to the stage to receive his or her award. If you reflect on your achievement you will easily see that among the factors that made it possible the most critical was your ability to lead a team”.
Among Rotarians who were present on the occasion were DGN Praveen Goyal and Co Chair Youth Service PP Baldev Aggarwal.
