Golden Apple Awardees
The Golden Apple Award
In recognition of the importance of local teachers, the club recognizes a teacher in the community with our annual MDI Rotary Golden Apple Award. Nominees for the award are chosen based on special criteria, which reflect the principles of Rotary, including high ethical standards and service to the community. The award includes a $1,000 honorarium for continuing education.
