Lake Spivey/Clayton County Recognizes Its Leaders

The Rotary Club of Lake Spivey/Clayton County enjoyed its first in-person meeting in a year late this June, when it held its annual club recognition and officer induction banquet at the Lake Spivey Golf Club.

President Troy Hodges recognized several club members for the important roles they played and the extra miles they traveled this year in completing club service projects and other activities. Dr. Paddy Sharma was honored as Rotarian of the Year. Dr. Sharma, a past president and current assistant district governor, has been a strong supporter of many club projects and also has been instrumental in establishing a global grant in partnership with The Rotary Club of Madras South in Chennai, India to harvest rainwater at ten schools in Chennai.

District Governor Elect Mary Ligon officiated at the highlight of the evening - the induction of Dr. Sonya Gaither, Dean of Libraries at Clayton State University, to be Club President for 2021-2022.

In a surprise move as the meeting began to close, President Elect Sonya Gaither provided President Hodges a well-deserved special award and gift for his leadership during this extraordinary "pandemic" year.
