Gov. Rick Rivkin's Visit

We were pleased to have Dist. Gov. Rick Rivkin make his club visit today at our temporary venue, Ditka’s.  Gov. Rick encouraged us to connect, keeping in mind his District theme seen in this years 6440 District log -- One Rotarian, One Club, One District, One Rotary, One World !

 

He noted that Rotary and our district is trying to do this in a variety of ways. He cited founder Paul Harris saying Rotary needs to be evolutionary and at time revolutionary.  Gov. Rick felt our involvement, support and efforts at connection were important to the Rotary Foundation, membership, service, fellowship and public image.  A part of this support was his presenting member Bob Arnold with Bob's "Paul Harris" award/certificate (see photo).

 

He also encouraged attendance at the upcoming Paul Harris dinner, the Dist. Conference, and the International Convention.
