Rotary District 5170 proudly recognizes Bob Shaver of the Rotary Club of Fremont for his extraordinary dedication, reliability, and unwavering commitment to Service Above Self.
Bob is one of those people you can always count on no matter the challenge. He quietly steps up, gets things done, and supports others without ever asking for recognition.

Rotary District 5170 proudly recognizes Mark Linsky of the Rotary Club of Pleasanton North as this year’s recipient of the prestigious Sydney R. Mitchell Award for District Rotarian of the Year.
Mark is the kind of leader every District Governor hopes for and secretly wishes they could clone once or twice. His vision, innovation, and ability to turn ideas into action have elevated not just his club, but our entire district.
Mark doesn’t just show up… he shows the rest of us how it’s done and somehow makes it look easy.
Thank you, Mark, for setting the bar high and then raising it even higher. Your leadership, dedication, and commitment to Service Above Self continue to inspire Rotarians across District 5170 and beyond.
👏 Let’s hear it for Mark Linsky!
