Board members, please plan to attend board meeting(s) TODAY (Monday, August 4) at 10:45 a.m. at the Best Western Abbey Inn. Please arrive on time because in our new Rotary year, our agenda is very, very long!
                                                     
Join District Governor Suzanne Leonelli Wilhelm for this year’s D5420 District Conference, on the weekend of   September 18-20 at the Hilton Garden Inn (next to the Dixie Convention Center).
 
This exciting and informative event will feature outstanding presenters – including motivational speaker and Hall of Fame Tennis Champion Roger Crawford - Rotary training, presentation of Club Awards by Past District Governor Todd Boyer and numerous opportunities for fellowship and fun beginning Thursday morning and ending on Saturday afternoon.
 
Our “early bird” $99 cost-to-attend is only available through August 8!!!  Register NOW.

We look forward to having you at what is certain to be a wonderful weekend with Rotary friends!
 
PS: President LaRene has fingers crossed some of you will join her at the Hilton Garden Inn because her hope is to be surrounded by 6 more members of SGR!
                                                   
SGR's exciting "Rev'd Up for Rotary" car show is just around the corner on Saturday, September 6 at Red Cliffs (Mall) and we still need more sponsors. 
 
If you are a business owner - or someone you know is a business owner and would like to be involved - $250, $500 or $1000 will get you a generous sponsor package, including a spot in our sponsor showcase.
 
Thanks in advance for your company's support as a sponsor or for reaching out to others in your circle of influence. If you have questions or wonder where to send your company logo, contact Dale Desmond.  
                                                         
Have you ever wondered about some of the details of our five southern Utah clubs which combined now have a total of 313 members?
 
Cedar City (100), coincidentally is celebrating their 100th anniversary of doing good in the world this year!
St. George Sunrise (88) has an ambitious goal to reach 100 members in DG Suzanne's year
St George (68), had a net gain of 10 new members last year.  Can we repeat our success in RY2025-26?
Hurricane Valley (30) was the 2nd Rotary club in Washington County and decades later continues to make the world a better place
Washington City (27) is the newest and smallest of southern Utah's five clubs but is "united for good" while doing amazing "service above self"
                                              
Utah Rotary's District Governor Suzanne Wilhelm's goal for D5420 is another 200 members by June 30, 2026 (a net increase of 4-ish in each of Utah Rotary's 45 clubs).  So, who do you know who should be a member of St. George Rotary Club?
                                                  
Rotary Question of the Week
 
In 1917, RI President Arch Klumph announced his idea for this endowment fund dedicated to "doing good in the world" and which has to-date awarded more than $4 billion in support of life-changing, sustainable club and district projects to improve the lives of people in need around the world!
                                  
It's wild polio season again ... so its no surprise we have 3 new cases with paralysis in Pakistan bringing the worldwide total to 19 ... 2 in Afghanistan and 17 in Pakistan.   
 
But while Rotarians know we're going in the right direction, we also know it's still out there.
 
If you aren't already giving to the PolioPlus Society - at an affordable $8.50 a month or $100 annually until polio is eradicated finally and forever -please see Foundation Chairs Dave, Bryan or Dale to sign up or for more information.
