Last week the circus came to the Marriott in the Golden Triangle with soon to be Past District Governor Scott Carr serving as ringmaster. During the program multiple clubs were honored for their achievements and several Rotarians received individual awards. Our own Janice Kurth, Rotary Foundation Chair for District 5340, awarded several major donor recognitions and also announced that District 5340 was ever so close to raising $1,000,000 for Polio Plus. Several generous Rotarians got the District over the million mark by pledging more than $45,000 that night. Mel Gallegos was sworn in as new district governor, and Don Fipps was sworn in as our new club president.
