D7390 Past District Governors Gather for a FUN Evening

The Past District Governors and current District Leadership in D7390 recently gathered for a fun evening of fellowship! PDG Paul Thompson and Maria hosted the event at the Boomerang Bar & Grill in New Cumberland. Maria read the following to the attendees - An Ode to PDGs

"Over 20 years ago, we met a wise Rotarian in Africa, who asked if we knew the tow things that Rotarians, and Exchange Students, should be? The answer was simply: interested and interesting! So, when I found out that Paul was going to be our next DC - as it was announced at our Club's weekly luncheon - I was interested…if for no other reason than, I would not have to feed him for an entire year! 

Along the same theme - of interested and interesting - I recently had the pleasure of writing 17 PDG eulogies for our Zone Institute, I can attest that some of the great qualities shared amount all PDGs are your: brilliance, talents, academic excellence - in many cases your athleticism, as hardworking, successful business and community leaders who are exceedingly unique and magnanimous, for which we all give our heartfelt, THANKS!

I would like to share a rather prophetic quote fond on the webpage of the Rotary Club of Central NY, Colonie-Guiderland that perhaps should be more wide disseminated: Some people spend an entire lifetime wondering if they made a difference in the world…Rotarians don't have that problem!

Thank you again for sharing your time, talents, and hopefully good humor, through thick and thin, good meals and bad, through sunrises and sunsets, and especially for the time you gave your spouses to do their own work, every once in a while!

Cheers to you all, and may each of us continue to be interested and interesting - as we continue to Make a Difference in the World!"
