When you join us for breakfast, you can choose to eat first and then join the group of Rotary Pack-a-Meal volunteers on the assembly-line packaging of highly nutritious dehydrated meals comprised of rice, soy, vegetables, and 23 essential vitamins and minerals.

Our goal is to provide a fun filled, inspirational day of Rotary How-too's in three main areas.

Bring your Texas Brag to the Club Leadership Training Assemblies
"Be the Inspiration". This year at our 2018-19 Club Leadership Training Assemblies on April 21st in Fort Worth and April 28th in Graham, we are encouraging our Rotary Clubs to "Inspire" each other.
Of course, being Texan's we love to BRAG. Right? We do everything bigger, better, faster, smarter and so on. Dizzy Dean used to say, "it ain't braggin if you kin do it".
And since you've proven you can do it, we would like you to inspire others to do it. Do you have a project you would like to promote? Are you looking for partners for a grant project? Do you have a fund raiser you would like to promote? Or, have a really cool fund raiser that other clubs could adopt? Or, perhaps you have a story board that shows all the great projects and programs your club is doing? Whatever your club is doing that is great information to share or participate in...BRING It...BRAG ABOUT It and share it with Rotary members throughout District 5790.
Dear District 5790 Rotarians:
I am honored and pleased to share with you that the 2018-2019 District Governor Nominating Committee met on Sunday, February 25, 2018. The Nominating Committee, composed of myself as Chair, and the five immediate Past District Governors, interviewed applicants for 2020-2021 District Governor. I am privileged to announce that longtime Rotarian and member of the Rotary Club of Fort Worth International, Past Assistant Governor Roger Paschal, was chosen to serve in this esteemed role for 2020-2021.
Of the things we Think, Say, or Do
As Rotarians, we should look forward to the upcoming 4-Way Test Speech Contest and how that applies to all we do as Rotarians.
First, it is the truth?
YES! The 2018 Speech Contest is rapidly approaching! By now each club should have:
- Contacted the schools for participation and forwarded literature to the school representative
- Scheduled the Contest for February
- Submitted Participation form to the District Coordinator.
Are you an End Polio Crusader?
That is do you communicate Rotary's End Polio message and create awareness among fellow Rotary members and the community at large about Rotary's End Polio initiative and the importance if donating to End Polio Now? If so, you are a polio crusader.
Now meet a really bold End Polio Crusader, Jenna Buscemi (Rotary Club of Houston Energy Corridor, TX) and District 5890 DG Bill Palko (Rotary Club of Northshore, TX) who have died their hair (Jenna) and mustache (Bill) purple to raise awareness for Global Polio Eradication. Jenna was featured in the March 2018 Rotarian magazine where she said she is used to the strange glances, and said "I'll say to them, I bet you're wondering about my hair, and then I'll give them my elevator speech about Rotary and the current facts about Polio.
How about a purple goatee? What do you think DG Chris McLucas?
