Greetings from District Governor Shanon O'Toole! 

 

Greetings fellow District 6580 Rotarians!

It's hard to believe that March is already here! Even more astounding is the realization that our Inspiration in Evansville District 6580 Conference is merely 50 days away.

Our District Conference planning committee has been diligently working to prepare an extraordinary experience for our District. As I've visited clubs, I've emphasized the importance of attending our District Conference and assured members that it will be well worth their time. I am confident that I have not overstated its value.

Our District Conference will be nothing short of AMAZING. We've dubbed it Inspiration in Evansville because the entire day will be filled with INSPIRATION! From the opening bell to the closing awards ceremony and every moment in between, there will be abundant opportunities for learning, engagement, and inspiration.
I'm thrilled about our keynote speakers and each of our breakout sessions. Even our service project for Youth First is dedicated to Mental Health and the well-being of children and families in southern Indiana. We have some great surprises too!

March marks Water, Sanitation, and Hygiene month. For many decades, our Rotary clubs, in collaboration with our Rotary Foundation, have been tirelessly working to provide safe, clean drinking water to millions of people worldwide through various grant programs. Similarly, our efforts have extended to improving sanitation and hygiene for numerous individuals across the globe. The sustainability of these investments has been a hallmark of our work. Our contributions to the Rotary Foundation and local fundraising efforts have had a monumental impact on millions of lives around the world.

This month, I've had the honor of revisiting several clubs, and I had the pleasure of attending a social event at our newest chartered club, The Rotary Club of Jasper-Passport. I love the innovative club style, which involves rotating meetings at each other's businesses, fostering a unique and dynamic atmosphere and celebrating the history of how Rotary began 119 years ago.

Sincerely,
DG Shanon
