1 GREENWICH ROTARY CLUB 2010 CITIZEN OF THE YEAR DINNER HONORING DAVID OGILVY BELLE HAVEN CLUB GREENWICH, CONNECTICUT

2 THE GREENWICH ROTARY CLUB SALUTES DAVID OGILVY 2010 CITIZEN OF THE YEAR David Ogilvy exemplifies the Rotary Club motto of "Service Above Self" in his long list of volunteer efforts. He is on the board of the Boys & Girls Club of Greenwich where he, along with Susan Bevan (2009 Rotary Citizen of the Year) was co-chair of the $16 million fund raising to totally renovate and add onto the Boys & Girls Club. As a former president of the Greenwich Land Trust, he is now an honorary member of the Board of Directors and maintains a very active role in soliciting property for conservation. David initiated and was the Chairman of the "100 Days to Save Treetops", the successful public/private fundraising effort to raise $11.5 million to save the Treetops Estate from a 40 house development. This has protected permanently 110 acres of environmentally fragile property on the Mianus River, adjoining Mianus River Park. He was on the Selectman's Advisory Committee and was instrumental in the acquisition of the Pomerance-Tuchman property in Cos Cob next to the Montgomery Pinetum, working to expand the greenway from the Mianus River Gorge to Long Island Sound and he was also involved in the Town's acquisition of the Laddins Rock Preserve in Old Greenwich, again an important part of a greenway leading to Binney Park. David's wife Anne is very involved in the Audubon and the preservation of Long Island Sound, and the Historic Society, passions he very much shares with her. David has had involvement in many not-forprofit organizations over the years including being on the Board of Hotline (now Friendly Connections at Family Centers), the YMCA, the Mead Institute and the Mead School where he chaired the successful fund raising to acquire their new campus. He is on the Advisory Board of the Teen Center, the Greenwich Point Conservancy, the Greenwich Tree Conservancy and the Advisory Council of The Greenwich Historical Society, where he has been involved in the Antiquarius House Tour for more than 18 years and in the placquing of historic houses in the effort to preserve the history of Greenwich. He has been committed to the Greenwich Country Day School, the United Way, Greenwich Hospital and is actively involved in the MMRF, the Multiple Myeloma Research Foundation. David has received awards for conservation efforts and was recently honored as one of only two recipients ever to receive the Boys & Girls Club National Medallion award. Having enjoyed raising three boys who are now grown, David and his delightful wife Anne are busy raising three wonderful daughters ages 15, 13 and 5 and love that all children will grow up and see what a wonderful effect preservation and conservation will have had on this town. Their personal historic contribution continues with the preservations of their 1888 Second Empire Victorian office on Arch Street, as well as their preservation of the 1703 Saltbox home in Old Greenwich from David's family to ensure their future survival as landmarks in Greenwich. SERVICE ABOVE SELF
