Friends of Rotary
One of the most important keys to our success over the past seven decades has come from the generosity of many Bello locals who have shared their resources and worked tirelessly beside us, time after time, to "get the job done."
There have been many special people through the years who "put their shoulders to the Rotary wheel" and served beside us to accomplish some incredible projects and services for the Bellingen Shire. On occasions we have enjoyed the opportunity to celebrate some of these people with a Paul Harris Fellowship, Rotary's highest award.
There are a few people who have gone above and beyond serving the community through Rotary across the years, and they have earned the rare privilege of joining the ranks of "Honourary Rotarians."
Please join us in celebrating all these people for their contributions to the community, as we reminisce with a few of our local champions below...
