Rotary Burrell

Cathy Burrell is recognized as the citizen of the month by the Rotary Club of Kootenai Valley at a meeting on December 8. Presenting the award is Rotarian Eileen Carney. Cathy was recognized for her many hours working for the community. She spends much time making quilts for deserving children who have little else. She volunteers at the Chamber of Commerce two days a week. Besides working for Koats for Kids, she is becoming involved in helping pick up contributions and organizing the effort. She helps out with the Community Thrift Store one day a week. She also volunteers at her church whenever a need arises. Rotary began recognizing volunteers who add so much to the community to make others aware of how much it takes to make our area such a great place to live.
