On Tuesday evening, nine members of the Boulder City police and fire departments were honored by the city’s two Rotary clubs as part of their Service Officer Award Recognition program, which fetes first responders who are “everyday heroes.”
Amy Vandermark, president of the Rotary Club of Boulder City for their 2023 year, made the presentations.
The awards were actually originally announced at a ceremony at Las Vegas City Hall on Sept. 13 honoring first responders from across the greater metropolitan area. However, members of the Boulder City departments were reportedly not able to be at that event and so a separate presentation was scheduled in their hometown, according to Jordana Lane, president of the SOAR committee, which is made up of all the Rotary clubs of Southern Nevada.
