SPEAKER - John Hathway - District Governor
Assistant Governor Gary Milleson introduced DG John Hathaway to the membership.
He has been a Rotarian for over 22 years and has perfect attendance. John is a member of The Woodlands club. He has hosted several exchange students over the years.
John told our club about the MyRotary website and how the site is very useful for information about Rotary and all what Rotary does around the world.
John has a 3 Word Message he told and showed us - 3 peas in a pod:
First Pea: The first pea is "Participation". Get involved with your club in something that is one of your passions.
Second Pea: The second pea is Peace. Rotary has been active with World Peace developing leaders around the world working with areas for clean water and sanitation, basic education, and to end Polio.
Third Pea: The third pea is the End Polio Now. John has challenged our District to make a contribution to Polio of $167,000.00 with a local match of up to $175,000.00 which in turn Bill Bates with double the match making the total contribution $1 million. IF the goal is reach John has agreed to have his beard shaved off at the 2019 District Conference next April.
There will be a thermometer graph on the district website showing the progress of the goal raised over the next year.
