Individual Outstanding Service Award At the Rotary Club of Excelsior's Tuesday, May 18th Meeting President Dick Glover presented Joe Froehling the District 5950 Outstanding Club Leadership Award.

Joe Froehling has been instrumental in establishing the Excelsior Rotary Foundation. Under his leadership a set of bylaws have been established to guide the foundation in is relationship with the Excelsior Rotary Club and yet maintaining it legal separation and identity as a non-profit. The Excelsior Foundation will now be the funding source for grants and scholarship programs. As an accountant Joe understands the autonomous nature of a non-profit foundation and how it can be fiscally responsive to the funding needs for charitable giving and scholarships. Joe is also a great mentor to younger club members and is always available to help with procedural and financial questions.

We thank Joe for his outstanding leadership to the Rotary Club of Excelsior and we are all proud that he has been recognized by his Rotarian peers in the District for his efforts on behalf of Rotary and has put "Service Avove Self". (Story and photo by Steve Frazier)
