District Governor April Message - Robert Rapp
Rotary District 5650 Rotarians—Welcome to April! “No winter lasts forever; no spring skips its turn. April is a promise that May is bound to keep, and we know it.” Having grown up on a farm and ranch, I think this quote by Hal Borland, writer, journalist, and naturalist, born May 14th, 1900, in Sterling, Nebraska, speaks to the seasonal transition that spring represents for hope and renewal as we move toward May.

Western Nebraska Wildfires - Voluntary Response
The below is a message from District Governor, Robert Rapp. 
 
You may be aware of the wildfires currently burning in Western Nebraska located in Rotary District 5630. A real tragedy affecting many communities, farmers and livestock producers.
 
One way Rotary District 5630 Rotarians are helping is by volunteering time and monies to Hot Meals USA out of Kearney, Nebraska.  Hot Meals USA is the nonprofit 501(c)(3) group that helped serve meals to our communities after the April 2024 tornadoes.
 
This is completely voluntary, but one way we can help is donate to Hot Meals USA. I am including the link.  PDG, Roxy Orr's brother is a Rotarian in Rotary District 5630 and indicated that there is a need for donations to Hot Meals USA to help after she spoke with him.
 
 
Many of your communities may be helping with the firefighting efforts from volunteer firefighters and equipment from your local fire departments.
 
I appreciate your consideration.
 
Sincerely,
 
Robert

Message From Our President
Aaron Tomita

Good morning, and welcome to the Omaha Morning Rotary Club.

We are a community of professionals united by one simple belief — that we can do more together than apart. Each week we gather not just to share a meal, but to share ideas, build friendships, and take action on behalf of our community here in Omaha.

Service is at the core of everything we do. Whether through local projects or global initiatives, our members show up ready to make a difference. But just as important is the fellowship — the relationships built here last a lifetime.

If you're considering joining us, I'd love to have you at our table.

 
Aaron Tomita
President, 2025-2026
