Editor’s Note:
The Tallassee Rotary Club recently recognized Clay Hornsby, Jeff Mask, Carmen Rodgers and Logan Steers as Paul Harris Award winners. They are most often given to a member of the club who has served as president or gone above and beyond in supporting the club. A story will be published about each award winner.
Clay Hornsby came to the Tallassee Rotary Club a little over a year ago. As he was learning the ropes didn’t mean he was sitting idly by.
Hornsby was constantly willing to give of his time and seek help from his employer as the Tallassee Rotary Club served the community. For his efforts the club named him a Paul Harris Award winner recently.
“Everytime we needed a volunteer, he was there,” current Tallassee Rotary Club president Stephanie Weldon said. “His service got his award. He was always willing to help both in volunteering and in fundraising.”
Weldon said Hornsby’s efforts especially at his job made one of the club’s fundraisers a huge success last year.
“He got GKN to sponsor the ball drop,” Weldon said. “They were our largest supporter.”
