Honored during the meeting was retired BHS executive director Judith MacAlister of Pocasset for her 15 years of service as society director and volunteer.
Mary Beth Ellis presented MacAlister with the Tree of Life - created by Pairpoint Glass Co. - in her honor as well as flowers and words of appreciation from the group.
Selectman Donald Ellis presented MacAlister with a proclamation from Bourne selectmen for her many years of service.
During the Volunteer Recognition and Luncheon, Edward "Ted" Ellis was presented the Volunteer of the Year "Honey Jar" by Gioia Dimock of Bourne village, last year’s volunteer. Ellis was unsuspecting and honored. The jar was full of thoughts and reasons as to why he is the “Volunteer of the Year.”
