Description

Politically, I’m an independent. I tend to lean toward the Democrats’ thinking on many, but not all, issues. I have voted for some Republicans in the past, but recently I haven’t found any worthy of my vote. Today’s Democrats, it seems to me, are afraid to hurt someone’s feelings. You can be honest and forceful without being mean or hurtful.

District Governor Chris Waugh Visits Eugene Emerald Valley Rotary District Governor Chris Waugh visited the determined Rotary Club of Eugene Emerald Valley on Wednesday, January 21st. The club meets at Dickie Joe's in Eugene, where they exemplify Rotary adaptability by meeting amidst an ongoing venue remodel. Under the leadership of President Theresa Thompson, this smaller club tackles significant community needs, addressing food insecurity, mental health, and support for homeless youth through strategic partnerships and their club foundation. A highlight was reconnecting with a longtime friend and fellow Rotarian, George Rode, whose dedication exemplifies "Service Above Self." The club possesses a unique trait: every member has served as club president. This deep well of experience brings both strength and the common challenge of leadership succession, a topic at the heart of the visit's discussion. The club is thoughtfully exploring membership growth, including the strategy of engaging recently retired professionals to add vibrancy and aid in building a sustainable leadership pipeline. Governor Waugh applauds the Emerald Valley club for their resilience, impactful service, and thoughtful approach to their club's future. #Rotary #DistrictGovernor #ChrisWaugh #EmeraldValleyRotary #ServiceAboveSelf #RotaryAdaptability #ClubLeadership #MembershipGrowthPhotos from Rotary District 5110's post
