Happy June everyone!
 
What a busy two months we have had in our District and our clubs!  We celebrated our Clubs and their accomplishments at our annual District 5150 Conference.  The first in person conference in three years, we were thrilled to celebrate all of you and your hard work in our communities.  Congratulations to all of our clubs and for those who received awards for their accomplishments.  We also created a video for all our clubs as a thank you to you and your commitment to our communities. 
 
This month began with the opportunity to see our global family in Houston, Texas at our Rotary International Convention.  This was the first in person convention in 3 years, and our District contingent had an outstanding experience catching up with old friends and creating new ones.
 
 
 
The convention is an opportunity to learn more about areas in our organization that can enhance your membership experience.  Not only through breakout sessions that offer education on new ways to give, membership tips, public image recommendations, but also in the House of Friendship to create new relationships and partnerships on global projects. 
 
In addition, the RI Convention provides the opportunity to engage and learn about a Rotary Fellowship, which are international groups who share a common passion and are a great way to make friends around the world. There are many fellowships to choose from such as the wine fellowship, beer fellowship, the fellowship for scouting, wellness and fitness, LGBT+, golf, and many more.  For more information on fellowships, check out Rotary.org.
 
If you couldn’t join us in Houston, we hope you will join us in Melbourne, Australia for the 2023 Rotary International Convention!
 
Finally, this month we celebrate PRIDE and our support of our LGBTQ+ family.  As an organization we believe that embracing diversity, equity, and inclusion should be a part of everything we do at Rotary, so let’s celebrate PRIDE and show our LGBTQ+ community our support and love this month!
 
Yours in Rotary,
