Volunteer of the month

This is an award which recognises that so much that is done at our clubs is done by unpaid volunteers. New Zealand Bridge would like to recognise some of these people. They may just provide help over one short-term project or may have been around a club for years, almost a permanent feature, always helping.

We just want to give such people a little recognition, about how valuable they are. As such, they will receive a certificate, presented at a session of their club so that others may acknowledge and appreciate the person’s value to the club. We will also give them a small gift, a bottle of nice wine, a box of chocolates, flowers, depending on who it is.

We need club committees to nominate such people and write a few words about why the person has been nominated and their value to a club. Please email nominations to Richard.Solomon@nzbridge.co.nz

We will publish on the NZ Bridge website and Facebook page a photo of the presentation along with the explanation as to why the person has received the award.

New Zealand Bridge appreciates that at every club there are many people who play their part. We are not asking you to choose one person above others. As a club, you may nominate more than one person at different times. Not everyone can receive such an award though those who have, though often in a very modest way, really appreciate the thanks they receive.

Look around your club and please nominate a person.
