Baker Named Rotarian of the Year

Linda Baker, vice president of the southern region of Workers Compensation Fund, was named 2012-13 "Rotarian of the Year” from among the 60-members of St. George Rotary Club.  An employee of WCF for 38 years and a longtime member of Rotary, Baker was chosen for this honor, in part for her efforts as SGR’s foundation chairperson and for chairing a successful Christmas holiday fundraiser.  President of St. George Rotary Club in 2011-12, Baker was also honored for her tireless support of Rotary International’s youth exchange program since joining the local service club in 1996.

This year, two of ten exchange students in the Utah Rotary District -one from Taiwan and one from Spain - lived and attended high school in the Washington County School District.  Baker made certain these students took part in mandatory youth exchange programs in locations around the state including Bear Lake, Tooele, Moab, Park City, SLC, Ogden (for district conference), St. George, and Lake Powell.

Congratulations on a well-deserved recognition for Linda Baker, Rotarian of the Year!
