In February the call came down from John Minhinick, chairman of the RIBI PR and Communications committee for nominations for the national PR event award. This award is for the event, that in the eye of the judges, has promoted Rotary in in accordance with the set criteria. It was decided to enter the Brickhills club for the Rotary Easter Showcase that we put on in Middleton Hall last year.

A 45 page report was drafted and submitted to RIBI headquarters. One month later we had a phone call to say that we had won the award jointly with Stanford St Martins Rotary club.

Andrew and Elizabeth Sheldon travelled to National Conference in Edinburgh to receive the award. It was a very proud moment.
