One of the most important roles of the District Governor is to visit the clubs to deliver the messages from the current RI President including the 2017-18 theme Rotary: Making a Difference and to help promote healthy and vibrant clubs. DG Don and Pat visited the Western and Central Newfoundland clubs in July and also participated in the Sydney Ribfest. They were very well received and spent time in board meetings, club meetings, project tours and activities.
Some highlights included: RC Clarenville baked DG Don a welcome cake; the Rotary Arts Centre in Corner Brook; a productive visit with RC Humber; a tour of Rotary projects by RC Stephenville, the Rotary Gold Mine draw at Cobb's Pond Rotary Park in Gander and future Rotarian Tarragon Wilkes at RC Grand Falls!
Sydney Sunrise Rotarian Ian Doyle and his wife Anne hosted Don and Pat during the Sydney Ribfest which featured a special Canada 150 fireworks display on Friday night. On Saturday, DG Don was asked to be one of the judges of the Ribbers to select the best ribs, chicken and sauce from five vendors. It was a great day to be District Governor! July was a great month of Club visits. The Tour continues in August with RC Labrador City- Wabush, four Annapolis Valley clubs, PEI and Sydney area clubs.
