It was a glittering night at the Annual Rotary Clubs of The Bahamas Foundation Gala, held this year at the Rosewood hotel. Rotarians and guests came together to celebrate the heartbeat of Rotary, the Rotary Foundation and to laud outstanding Rotarians and community leaders.
The Annual Peter Christie Heart of Rotary Award has, since its original launch in 2016, become a coveted award, with a list of exceptional Rotarians taking it home. Each Rotary club nominates one of its members and the Nassau Club committee assesses and selects the final winner. That club then donates funds to the Foundation in the winner’s name. The selection is kept secret until presentation night.
This year was a very tough choice but the award went to a stellar Rotarian - Rotary Club of New Providence 1988 charter member and former Bahamasair pilot Captain Augustine ’Gus’ Roberts. Gus has been involved with several Rotary youth programmes, including sending Interactors to participate in Whitewater Seminars in Wisconsin and working with the Bahamas Model United Nations Committee’s annual high school debate (the winning school team goes to the UN to hear our Prime Minster address the assembled nations). His latest projects were during the COVID epidemic, when he ran the Vaccination Centres at both Gladstone Road and the Mall at Marathon.
To a cheering crowd, the award was presented to PP Gus, as he is affectionately known, by David Kirkaldy, District Governor of Rotary District 7020 (the northern Caribbean) and Nassau Club President Darren Bain.
