Dear Rotarians,
During this period of Thanksgiving we have so much to be grateful for in our lives and our district. I have now had the pleasure of visiting 40 of our 41 clubs and I have been awestruck by so many things. First of all, the commitment, compassion and uniqueness of each of our clubs and their unwavering service as they “do good” in their communities and the world is nothing less than inspiring. We are blessed to have so many dedicated individuals in our clubs such as Past District Governor Leon Riggs who speaks passionately about the joys of his 50 years as a Rotarian and Gangadar Maddiwar with his many adventures as he travels the far reaches of our world alleviating suffering. Participating in the auction hosted by the Paris and West Liberty clubs for West Liberty last week was a fantastic example of how our clubs also reach out to each other. Not to mention that traveling throughout our district when it is decked out in the splendor of fall color is truly a joyful experience.
I hope the spirit of Thanksgiving is with you as you join friends and families to gather and give thanks. If you have not had the experience of visiting another club in our district in a while, take the opportunity soon. You will come back to your own club invigorated with new ideas and with some new friends.
Yours in Peace,
Kathryn Hardman
District Governor
