Congratulations on your club’s achievement as an Honor Club for the 2021-2022 Civitan year! Your international officers and staff extend our gratitude to your members for your club’s hard work and dedication.
It is amazing what tremendous accomplishments our members and clubs achieve through involvement with Civitan. Volunteers are special individuals who ask for nothing in return. It is evident that your members display this unique character. And by touching the lives of those special recipients in your local area, the CIVITAN name is shared with pride.
I hope you will share this news with your club and express the congratulations of your international officers and staff for the tremendous efforts of your members in the name of our wonderful organization, Civitan International.
Very few outstanding clubs achieve high standards without a strong leader to guide them. As president for 2021-2022 and having sponsored a minimum of one member during the year, you earned recognition as a Distinguished President. Yours and your club’s recognitions are on order and will be sent soon.
Congratulations again to your club for its outstanding year of service; and congratulations to you for leading your members to a banner year! I am so very proud to be united with an organization that includes such outstanding clubs and people like your members.
