Arden Hills/Shoreview Rotarian Brenda Holden, who is also an Arden Hills City Councilmember and the 2013 Recipient of the Paul Harris Award, stated she nominat- ed Paul because of the community impact of his work. “Through his work at the National Sports Center Paul has been instru- mental in helping provide high-qual- ity amateur sport opportunities to Minnesota families, which, in turn, generates economic impact through the Center’s hosting of regional, national and international sporting events,” Holden stated. More than four million people participate in activities each year that result in nearly $50 million in tourism-related economic impact for the Twin Cities metropolitan area, Holden said. Paul has endless energy to help his com- munity and has spent countless hours fund- raising for the boards he is associated with that provide significant economic impact.
