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 date….. 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 will 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 N 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 Club 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 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 N Canton Club? On April 16 they will be giving 24 Paul Harris awards out. 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 I, 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 one who steps up, makes 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
DG 6650

District Rotary Foundation - - Update
Paul Harris Fellow Challenge with Matching Donations – I am overwhelmed by the generosity of my fellow Rotarians. Thanks to matching donations by PDF Geoff and Kim Goll, we have received more than $90,000 in donations this past month for The Rotary Foundation. That brings us to nearly $200,000 in donations over the past five years! Your club Presidents will be receiving the large number of PHF pins to recognize your generosity. Thank you to all who have donated.
 
The Paul Harris Fellow Challenge winner is Fred Henderson from the East Liverpool Club (Apple’s Siri helped us choose the winner since we had so many donors).
