On February 1st we will only have 105 days until
May 16th, 2020
District 6650 Conference

This assembly of clubs will be an event you will not want to miss. I am asking all club members, their spouses/partners, family, friends and neighbors to attend. This action-packed day will start at 9:30 AM and end at 8:30 PM. We are planning on 300 to 400 at our evening event. Save the dateā€¦.. May 16th at the Kent Conference Center in Jackson Township. Your Co-chairs, Greg Brokaw from Jackson and Rich Tirpak from Plain, are working tirelessly toward building an event you do not want to miss. We are still looking for that special Corporate Sponsor for this event. They will be featured throughout the event and have their company information highlighted to all 1772 members. We also still have other opportunities for Businesses, Clubs, and Rotarians to show your financial support. Please contact Rich or Greg or Tiffany Rockstroh with possible supporters.

DGE Linda Henderson, from East Liverpool, has just finished her International Assembly Training in San Diego, California. She has, along with 4 other District Governor Elects in Ohio, been working for the past 10 months on the All Ohio PETS Training Program. I have been sitting in on the sessions and this will be another good AOP. DO NOT MISS IT, President Elects! I am excited and you should be as well!

You will find Linda to be very hard working, caring and compassionate as she fulfills her role as DG. Then comes the current Mayor of North Canton, Ohio and our DGE in 2020, Steve Wilder. You will find him to be a real uplifting and hardworking DG.

Last but not least, get to know Michelle Mullaly from the Canton Rotary and the Canton Symphony Orchestra. Michelle is working hard to learn as much as possible and to carry our District successfully into the future.

Vicky and I continue to be amazed at what you all are doing and the impact you have on your community. How about the Minerva Club having a community appreciation dinner for 1000 to 1500 people? They will be honoring first responders, Military and Veterans. Vicky and I are honored to be included. How about that North Canton Club? On April 16 they will be giving out 24 Paul Harris awards. Can you imagine that?

Let me conclude by reminding you that February is Peace Building and World Conflict Resolution month. Please go to My Rotary and read about Peace Conflict and Resolution. If you are like Vicky and me, you will be deeply touched. You will read heart wrenching stories and you feel proud to be of Rotary.

You all are amazing and make such an incredible difference in our world. I thank you and want you to know that the rest of the world counts on you each and every day. We know you will continue to be the ones who step up and make sacrifices so that each and every one of us can live a peaceful, healthful and productive life.

Thank you for your relentless commitment,

Dan Morgan
