On May 24 a large crowd gathered at Le Dome to celebrate the achievement of 33 Oakville high school students. The dinner was hosted by 3 Oakville Rotary clubs - Oakville, Oakville Trafalgar and Oakville West. The award recipients were selected from applicants from eight Oakville high schools. The evening's master of ceremonies was Ralf Soeder (Rotary Oakville) and the key note speaker was one of last year's recipients, Justin Zeus Eden who spoke on the Importance of Thinking Globally and Acting Locally. A highlight of the night was the awarding of The Donna Messer Service Above Self Award to Taliya Rizvi from Garth Webb High School.
