And the journey continues......

Another great "home" visit to start the next week and club visit 21 to the Rotary Club of Augusta South.  It was so good to see members of my home club.  I've missed seeing them so much.

The Rotary Club of Millen has a jewel they can be very proud of because they created a coloring book in 1992 about the 4 Way Test.  Now it is being sold all over the world!  You can order copis from Russell Hampton at www.ruh.com and use them with your literacy project!!  I'm very humbled by their contribution to Polio in celebration of my visit!  And I'm excited they are working toward being a 100% Paul Harris Club.  They are very close. The president shared this quote at the end of the meeting, "Start where you are.  Use what you have. Do what you can." Arhtur Ashe.  What a GREAT quote to think about as it applies to Rotarians all over the world.

It was a beautiful drive to the Rotary Club of Sandersville, but a stormy one on the way home.  What an AMAZING club.  15 members received Paul Harris Fellow pins and I was humbled to announce the next level of Bequest Society by one of their members that has helped us get closer to our goal of raising $1 Million Dollars for the Centennial Million Dollar Dinner.  Thank you Rotary Club of Sandersville for your contribution to Polio in honor of my visit to your club.  President Mike is ready for Atlanta too!!  I received another surprise and that was the visit from Past District Governor Bill Strickland and District Governor Elect David Cooper from District 6910!  Thank you for coming!!

Members that received Paul Harris Fellows pins today!

Thank you Herschel for your Rotary Legacy gift.
