Florence Rotary is requesting nominations for its annual Citizen of the Year award.
For the past 16 years Florence Rotary has honored “unsung heroes and heroines” in the community.
Roy Lutes was awarded the first citizen of the Year award in 1995. Every year since, Florence Rotary has awarded the “Roy Lutes Citizen of the Year Award” to an outstanding and well-deserving individual.

Rotary is now seeking nominations from throughout Northern Kentucky to identify and recognize the most deserving and selfless individuals in our community. To make a nomination submit a letter containing the following information:
- Name and phone number of the nominee
- Narrative account of how the nominee has exhibited the Rotary Creed of “Service above Self” through their work and volunteerism in their daily activity in the community and beyond.
- Your name and contact information
- All nominations must be received by March 16, 2012
To be eligible an individual should have exemplified the Rotary Creed of “Service above Self” as a lifetime achievement, not as a single significant service. The individual should live and/or work in Florence or the eight counties of Northern Kentucky comprised of Boone, Kenton, Campbell, Gallatin, Grant, Pendleton, Carroll and Owen counties.
Think of those people in your community that have consistently gone out of their way to help others, to set an example, and who make this area a better place in which to live. Those are the people we would like to recognize. Please take the time to submit a nomination for that special individual you believe makes a difference.
Submit your nominations by mail to Herbert Booth, 6296 Saddle Ridge, Burlington, KY 41005 or e-mail griess1006@aol.com. A committee of Rotarians will make the final selection. For more information about Florence Rotary go to www.florencerotary.org .
The Citizen of the Year Award will be made at a special luncheon scheduled for April 30, 2012 at the Airport Hilton Hotel in Florence.
