Club member William Lynn is to be recognized for 36 years of dedicated service to the Hamilton Chess Community. The award will be presented by the Mayor at a council meeting (Council Chambers) this Friday, December 13, at 2.30 p.m.
Hamilton Civic Awards nominations are considered by the Mayor, Deputy Mayor and Chairperson of the city’s Civic sub-committee. Nominations are considered on the basis of the description of the service given and the quality of the supporting references included in the application. Each year the panel grants a maximum of 20 Civic Awards. This year William will be one of 13 recipients. We look forward to many more years of William’s contribution to the Waikato Chess Scene.
