DG BOB'S JULY MESSAGE
My fellow Rotarians on Saturday, June 29, a new beginning emerged, Rotary Connects the World. We are indeed a global network of some 565 districts and I want our district to continue to be a “shining star’ and it starts with me!
As your District Governor, I’m honored and privileged to have this opportunity representing Rotary International.

I make this pledge to each of you because as a committed Rotarian I’m asking each of you for a commitment to making your club become the best it can be.
A Rotarian asked God: Am I all I think I am or am I better than I think I am and if I were better how much more could I accomplish? God in His infinite wisdom simply said; Make a better you and the world will also become better place. As I reflect on ‘Make a better you and the world will also become better place’ the mission that lies ahead provides us with many opportunities to make the world a better place as reflected in Rotary’s Six Areas of Focus:
1. Peace and Conflict Resolution
2. Basic Education
3. Disease Prevention
4. Water and Sanitation
5. Economic Development
6. Maternal & Child health
Congratulations and Best Wishes to all our Presidents as they take on the leadership role of their club. This is a time in the Rotary year for looking forward. We have made our plans, now it is time to begin to execute and achieve them.
