Tom Ruesink is Our 2024 "Club Hero"
We are pleased to name Tom Ruesink our "Club Hero" for 2024. Each year our Rotary District invites all member clubs to name their "Hero". The honorees are recognized at the annual District convention. A Rotarian since 1983, Tom has served as the Club’s master of Arms for many years. As such he runs the “happy bucks” and 50/50 drawing at each club meeting. Tom also coordinates the the annual member donations to “We Care” at the Christmas party. His" cheery” and pleasant demeanor always puts our members at ease and makes the club meetings very enjoyable. Tom attends most if not all Club functions and has been a “staple" of the Club. Tom’s dedication to the club’s success exemplifies his “service above self”, and it is with great pleasure The Rotary Club of South Haven names Tom our "Club Hero"
