Rotary International’s Citation for Meritorious Service recognizes individual Rotarians who have demonstrated outstanding active service to The Rotary Foundation.  Dan Himelspach, Rotary District 5450 Governor 2013-14, received this special service award at the Zone 27 District Leadership Institute in Denver on July 22. 
 
An individual may only receive this award once in their lifetime and it recognizes individual Rotarians who have demonstrated outstanding active service to The Rotary Foundation for more than one year.  Examples of eligible service include, but are not limited to: • Service on Foundation committees at the club, district, or international level • Participation in Foundation grants or programs • Support of Ambassadorial Scholars, Rotary Peace Fellows, Group Study Exchange teams, or vocational training teams.
 
Dan has served as Club President of the Denver Mile High Rotary Club, as a member of numerous District 5450 committees, and as the End Polio Now Zone 27 Coordinator.  Because of his outstanding leadership, he has been named Zone 27’s Regional Rotary Foundation Coordinator.  In this new position, he will assist all districts in our zone to continue their strong efforts to raise Annual Funds.  Congratulations and thank you for all you do for Rotary, Dan!
