(Rotary): Rotary Club of Grand Cayman Central last week recognized

two outstanding Caymanians for their contribution to their vocations.

The annual Vocational Service Award recognizes those individuals who

have gone above and beyond on what has been required in their

vocations. Recognized at the weekly Rotary Central meeting were Police

Officer Miguel McFarlane andshipping advisor Raymond Scott. Officer

McFarlane is well known to all Caymanians and businesses of Central

George Town and along the waterfront. His pleasant smile and

willingness to help anyone who looks for any kind of assistance.

"When I joined the Police it was not for the money or positon, I joined because I truly saw a

way of helping my community in a constructive way", said Officer McFarlane as he humbly

accepted his Award from President Larry Tibbetts. "I thank Rotary Central for the very nice

andkind recognition that you have given me” said Officer McFarlane. Police Commissioner

Baines who was also in attendance spoke highly of Officer McFarlane. “Officer Miguel

McFarlane optimizes the highest qualities of a police officer and is truly loved by the entire

community of the Cayman Islands” noted Commissioner Baines.

Raymond Scott may not be visibly recognizable as Officer McFarlane, but his voice is

certainly known if you listen to any of the talk shows. Mr. Scott is the Sub-Agent for Lloyds of

London for Cayman Brac & Little Cayman and Cayman Shipping Advisor. “I started as a

shipping advisor at the age of 15; during my career I have been involved in over 100 rescues

at sea,” he said. “This has included ships on fire, distress, and so on, and I have never gotten

paid for it. I do this because I love being able to help others and keeping alive the seafaring

traditions of Cayman”

Both awardees were nominated by Rotarian Kent Eldermire, a member of Rotary Central.
