PDG John Pennypacker explained The Rotary Foundation and the history of the Paul Harris Fellow Recognition to educate the Interact leaders who were attending the conference before calling Jeanie Morgan to participate in making the actual presentation. Jeanie decided to transfer some of her recognition points to honor Colton after she became active as the Interact Treasurer and Registrar on the Interact District Council. In watching Colton's leadership skills at work, she could see that he was a true "servant leader." He is someone who encourages others on the council and recognizes efforts that go beyond expectations. He gives credit where it is due rather than taking credit for himself. She was especially impressed with the impact he experienced with his Ambassadorial experience with Crutches for Africa this past summer. He told her that it helped him understand what is truly important in life and will forever change his priorities.
