J.  Guest Presentation:  our own Tom Boylan, District Governor Elect and past President told us about the journey  that he has taken in Rotary to become a DG. He provided some fun visuals from the many years of working with DGs and a little info on what the past three years have meant to him taking on the role. He ended it with a brief introduction to how impactful the International Assembly has been. He did not go deep into his vision for the DG year — you’ll have to attend during his club visit in July or so to hear all that.
