“We can all be an inspiration to others. Being inspired relates to taking action. We can do more and be more effective if we are inspired. Find your inspiration and Take Action.”
District Governor Sherry has announced our new District Governor Designate, selected at the recent Fall Assembly. 
Jordana LaPorte will serve as governor in the year 2021-2022. She is a member of Chelan Rotary.
PDG Peter Erickson is our Rotary Foundation Chair and would like District 5060 to consider buying these Hippo Rollers for $150. Women can now push a lot more water than carrying. Pete is encouraging all clubs to donate $150 USD to purchase these amazing devices even though World Water Day (March 22, 2018) has passed. They can be purchased from the District 5060 Roll-a-Hippo Initiative.
The Hippo Roller 5060 Project started Sept 1 2018 and will end July 1 2019. So far we have collected 4000 USD from 4 Clubs in the District. Our goal is to have 100% participation by July 2019. We have applied for the District grant and hope we can reach our 10,000 USD goal by July. See updated info sheet here.

What an incredible journey this has been for myself and my husband Jim. I have spent a lot of years at the club level and working on international service projects. My past 10 years at the district level has opened my eyes even more to new opportunities in service.

Great story from Rotary Club of Peachland!
JoeAnna's House (https://www.kghfoundation.com/joeannas-house/) is an initiative by the Kelowna General Hospital (KGH) Foundation and a couple of major private donors. The Foundation has approached Rotary clubs in the area to come on board with donations. Of particular importance was that a donation be received by May 31st because a private foundation pledged to match donations received by that date 1:1.

PETS Followup from AG Rich Watson (Chelan)
Normally after attending a training session as powerful and exciting at PNW PETS, I like to take a week or so to think

about the messages and try to condense them into a few key points. It's been a bit longer than I would like do to a couple of pressing projects an a death in our extended family but her are my thoughts from the sessions. I'm sure you had even more and please be willing to share them.1. When I attended PETS as a PE, the emphasis was on having a detailed knowledge of how Rotary worked. Now it's on having an understanding of your leadership style and how to engage club members!! What a welcome change and what a freedom it affords you to try new things and not have to be the "doer" but the facilitator and motivator. ........
