D.G. Marilyn Hanson, Sept.16, 2013
District Governor Marilyn Hanson encourages us to Engage in Rotary and Change Lives.
D.G. Marilyn is very excited about the oportunity to serve Rotary as the District BOvernor for District 7010. She hopes to bring the joy of Rotary into the hearts of every member in her District.
DG Marilyn shared her Rotary Story. As a business woman starting her own business and being very involved in many other endeavors she declined her first two invitations to join Rotary and the third one was the charm. She reminded us that our invitations need to be followed up on.
DG Marilyn shared her international experiences and opportunities: Friendship exchanges, wheel chair distribution and literacy projects. It is through these experiences that she truly became a Rotarian and her passion for international projects is contagious.
DG Marilyn auctioned off a Rotary International Cookbook. Tony Davidson (out bidding Susan Davidson) was the successful bidder. The money raised will go to Polio Plus.
DG Marilyn was thanked by President Dave for her inspiration, her dedication and all that she does on behalf of the district to make the world a better place. A donation is being made to Polio Plus on her behalf.
