Meet our new honorary member

On Tuesday October 9th, Rotary Club of Portsmouth pins our third honorary member: Dr Dan Wrubel.

Dr Dan Wrubel, an optometrist from Michigan in the US, and his wife Genie have visited Dominica as volunteers for over 24 years with his VOSH eye-care program. Dr. Wrubel is involved in our new 21th century health care project. 

 

To honor him,  several club members gathered together at the poolside at Champs Hotel, where we had the pinning ceremony.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

After an inspiring speech from our President Rotarian Hans the pinning took place.

 

 

President Rotarian Hans highlighted Dr Dan's volunteering efforts for the eye-care in Dominica,

and our club is proud to have Dr Dan as a honorary member in our club where he will help the new health care project to make this a success. 

Dr. Dan entertained us with some anecdotes over the years he spent in Dominica, the island he considers as his second home.
