At our April 2 meeting, Valley View Rotary had the honor of recognizing a Rotarian for accomplishments and service to Rotary and society — and his personal support of Rotary’s Foundation.
Terry Bauer joined the VV Rotary Club on October 18, 2000, and since has given countless hours of community and club service. In 2007-08, he served as Club President. In 2012, Noon Tunes… which later became Moon Tunes…was his brainchild and continues to bring together music and community lovers to Riverside Park each summer.
Congratulations to Terry Bauer on his Paul Harris +1 award!
Matt M, Bailey, Dick S, Sue H, Sandy H, Mark E, Bruce N, Greg C, Elle B, Ana D and Nancy S.
