Rotary District 6110

Woohoo! Our first road sign update! Congratulations to the Rotary Club of Wagoner Ok for getting the first $100 district help to replace the old logo signs!

We know of at least 6 more clubs trying to do this (which means the DG is going to need to ask for more money from the financial people....no worries, she is ready...more than happy to do that!)

And DG Pam visits the Wagoner Club next week and will get to see the new signs!

Week 22 - post Thanksgiving...4 clubs in Kansas and Oklahoma.

If you are counting with the District Governor, she spent week 21 at home dealing with Thanksgiving and Christmas things....as she says, "my house needed me to stay home for a week!" (She did help her own club ring bells and operate Fantasy Land on Foot.)

Rotary Foundation giving is critical to the ongoing work of Rotary International. On her District Governor visit, DG Pam and AG Stan presented the Past President and Foundation Chair of the Tahlequah Rotary Club their Every Rotarian Every Year/100% Club Giving banners for 2022-2023.

Just because Foundation Month is over doesn't mean we stop supporting our 4-Star Charity Navigator Foundation!

We love smiling Rotary faces ringing the bells! Ding-A-Ling!!!!

Keep those red kettle pictures coming!

Hello December! And the season of bell ringing!

Congratulations to Rotary Club of Parsons !

And during the meeting they collected for polio to present to the District Governor to send to the Foundation at Rotary International

Joe Grisolano, Assistant Governor Coordinator, introduced District 6110 Governor Pamela Crawford, who spoke to our club. A highlight was her presentation of a special award to Past President Jennifer Dawson and Rotary Foundation Chair Hal Redford. The award was for the Parsons Rotary Club contributing over $1500 last year to the End Polio campaign.

Wow! Chewy thinks our Rotarians at Bartlesville Daybreak Rotary put on a dog friendly holiday light show at Fantasy Land of Lights!

(And a Fayetteville AR display makes the list, too!)

Wow...a pet company blog!

Great job Rotary Club of Owasso! (And this funding doesn't include the wine pull or silent auction...)

(We've heard the DG is only so-so at bunco but still had a good time! LOL)

Congratulations to the Rotary Club of Tulsa on their giving to during the 2022-2023 Rotary year. The certificate from Rotary International and the Foundation reflects at least $1500 total in donations by the club or members.

With Giving Tuesday approaching, this is a good time to think about a personal donation to the Rotary Foundation and End Polio Now.

And it is still dictionary season (plus Atlas's for 5th Graders in Iola)

Good work, Iola Rotary Club

Bell Ringing Season has begun... watch for some more pictures. (Looks like the DG helped her own club on this special project!)

Wow - Week 20 - 2 early morning clubs (Claremore and Tulsa) and a trip to Miami (OK that is!)

P.S. No club visits Week 21 - Happy Thanksgiving!

Today is ! On this day and every day, we celebrate that toilets are more than a place to go. Toilets are a powerful solution that provide health and safety and help prevent the spread of disease. Donate at https://water.org/world-toilet-day-2023/

This concrete co****le box is a project of the Rotary Club of Fredonia, Kansas . They used a district grant to help fund it. Just a reminder that district grants 2022-2023 need to be finished by November 30. And grant submissions for 2023-2024 need to be submitted by November 30.

Shoes! Soles for Souls!
District 6110 Missouri is helping ensure that all of Missouri will be represented in a shoe collection for Larry Lunsford's favorite mission. (Larry is our representative to the Foundation Trustees!) DGE Warren, Public Image Chair Wally, and Rotary Club of Mt. Vernon, MO President Marsha are working this.

DG Pam is convinced that other clubs in 6110 might want to add a few more shoes to the collection. We want to take shoes from 6110 to the District Conference for the rest of Missouri in mid-April. Watch for more information in the Tuesday Inspiration!

Week 19!

Membership!
Our District is
31.72% women!

Week 18! (a little late but here we go!)

What a fabulous use for the dictionaries! Thanks Webb City - Carl Junction Rotary Club !
