More than 60 Rotarians and guests were in attendance on Wednesday, Feb. 12, 2025, when Frank E. Gibson III, was recognized and honored for 50 years of service as a Rotarian. Additionally, he was recognized as a Rotary Foundation Major Donor – Level II, for having donated more than $50,000 to the Rotary International Foundation. Gibson joined the Beaufort Rotary on Feb. 14, 1975, and is credited with 34 years of perfect attendance. Among Gibson’s numerous achievements: He is a business executive, a retired South Carolina Army National Guard officer, a former NCAA football referee, a former president of the Rotary Club of Beaufort, and the 2022 recipient of the Club’s most prestigious award, The Rotary Bowl. Selfless service is the hallmark of Rotary’s motto of “Service Above Self,” and that describes Gibson.
