Are you a Business or Professional leader in your community, seeking to make a difference in the world around you?
 
Rotarians are passionate people driven by the ideal of service. As a part of Rotary, you get to network with and give back to communities around the globe. District 5830 is made up of 46 clubs and approximately 1400 members across NE Texas, SE Oklahoma, and SW Arkansas.
Two Months In… and Already So Much Impact!
Where did the time go? Somehow, we are already two months into our Rotary year!
 
One of the greatest joys of serving as your District Governor has been visiting your clubs. I have been inspired by the creativity, enthusiasm, and commitment I have seen throughout District 5830. I have seen clubs doing big things and small things that make a very real difference. And, perhaps most importantly, I have seen the power of Rotarians connecting with one another, with their communities, and with opportunities to make a difference.
 
I recently returned from District Governor Training in New Orleans and Zone Institute, and I came home energized all over again. The learning was incredible, but the connections and inspiration were just as valuable. Being surrounded by Rotary leaders from across our region and Rotary International President Elect Larry Lunsford was a wonderful reminder that while our clubs may be different, we share the same commitment to Service Above Self.
📚 PLEASE HELP ME READ!

September — Basic Education & Literacy Month

Fellow Rotarians,

Think for just a moment about those four simple words:

“Please help me read.”

For most of us, reading is something we do without even thinking about it. We read a menu, a prescription bottle, a road sign, a text from someone we love. We read to learn, to work, to communicate—and to dream.

But for millions of children and adults around the world, those simple tasks can be enormous obstacles.

Congratulations to Roy Shockey who was selected by the District 5830 Nominating Committee as District Governor Nominee Designate. He will serve as D-5830 District Governor during the 2029-2030 Rotary Year.
 
DGND Roy is the current President of Mineola Rotary Club. Roy has served as Mineola Club President for 4 years.
