Visits to the Hershey, Hanover, West Shore, and Manheim Clubs made for a fulfilling week of interacting with fellow Rotarians, and several new Members, while hearing about many club projects, and watching Clubs and educators engage with youth through students of the month and interact clubs.  Rotary's relationship with the youth in our District is highly inspirational, definitely keeping Paul Harris forever young!

More engaged Rotarians from those Clubs joined our Peace Council to contribute their extensive passion and wisdom to District stages of holding positive peace workshops and undertaking public discourse with the public sector.  Others joined the Environment Committee, where Joe McNally is collecting ideas from all Members for local projects.  Both Peace and the Environment will be featured at the House of Friendship during the Multi-District Conference set for April 4-6 at the Hershey Lodge.  Please add Conference registration to your plans before the end of the year, along with any Foundation-related donations that reflect your intent to make a difference in the community and the world.

Very best wishes for a meaningful Thanksgiving with family and friends.
