Posted by LeAnna Lutz
No star shone brighter than Karen Hewitt ( pictured right with Jim Reed, Past President), while accepting the office of President for 2010-2011, at the Metroport Rotary 2010-2011 Installation Banquet, held, June 23, 2010. From hors d'oeuvres to dessert, the Brio restaurant in Southlake, created an elegant atmosphere of celebration. The festivities included many thanks to those who have faithfully served throughout the 2009-2010 year. With a long and healthy list of accomplishments, each award was highly deserved.
The highlight of the evening went to Barry Smith ( pictured with Past President Jim Reed) as he was honored as Metorport Rotary Rotarian of the Year 2009- 2010. Barry's dedication to facilitating the annual Wine Discovery has allowed the Metroport Rotary to grant thousands of dollars to deserving youth to further their educational endeavors.
