RD 5810 North Texas - August 2018 Newsletter (Aug 28, 2018)

District Governor Bill Slicker's Message

Our Rotary Clubs are Terrific!

Each one is unique and is integral to the community they serve.

I’ve had the privilege to visit 14 Clubs this month and see many old friends. Each Rotary member has a heart of service.

The Clubs are setting up End Polio fund-raisers across our district.

Find one you can attend and support with a donation to PolioPlus.

In the September Rotarian magazine, The Rotary Foundation’s Chair, Ron Burton, has an article on our polio eradication efforts.

Read his article. Tell everyone you know about our fight to End Polio Now. You’ll be glad you did!

September is Basic Education & Literacy Month.

THIS IS A GREAT DAY TO BE A ROTARIAN!

Back To School Bash

Nothing makes a Rotarian happier than when they serve to make a difference! Check out all the smiling faces from the Royse City Rotarians at the city's Annual Back to School Bash.
