Ruth's Ramblings

HAPPY NEW YEAR!!

No I have not forgotten that this is July.

I just wanted to take this opportunity to remind you this is the beginning of the Rotary Year throughout the Rotary world.

In all of the 200+ countries, all of the installations have been held, new presidents inducted as well as their committee chairs and officers.

It is a time to reflect on the legacy with which we are blessed. We should consider the amazing district governors who have served our district and the wonderful way they served the membership, clubs and Rotary International. We applaud their efforts and will try to live up to their high standards.

I would be amiss if I did not mention Tim and Gail Buckley. What an awesome job they did? Please let them know you have appreciated their time, effort and love.

We now have new presidents of each club and new club leadership. We give thanks to those who served last year and give encouragement to those who have been selected to serve this new year. I would give everyone a raise this year but they only work for your thanks, encouragement, and service to mankind. So please remember to thank them for their service.

I am honored to have been selected by you to serve as your District Governor 2010-2011. I promise to you that I will attempt to live up to the high standards set before me. But I also commit to you the club members we will have FUN this year.

So as Roy Rogers used to say to Dale Evans, “ Hold on to your hat, honey, we are in for a ride.”

Happy Trails.

Ruth

Thank you for your service to Rotary!
