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 41 clubs and approximately 1400 members across NE Texas, SE Oklahoma, and SW Arkansas.
December 2024 brought LOTS of RAIN to D5830, but no snow flakes! Thankfully, we didn’t have the flooding and storm damage that we suffered last year - - - December was probably the BUSIEST month in 2024 - - - at least for me as DG - - - after a busy Thanksgiving, we pushed through all the planning, buying, decorating and experiences of the Christmas season - - - has everyone “packed up” the decorations yet? ? WE haven’t at our house, but will add those tasks to the growing year end 2024 stuff to complete.
Were you as successful this year as you wanted? For those of you who love to read, please add the New York Times Best Seller, Four Thousand Weeks - Time Management for Mortals to your must read list. 
 
The author of The Power of Regret, Daniel H. Pink, succinctly describes the work. “[It] will prompt you to rethink your worship of efficiency, reject the cult of busyness, and reconfigure your life around what matters.”

Reconfiguring our lives around what matters as Rotarians is a great thought as we move to a new year and analyze both our personal Visioning and that of our clubs from the past year. We all did Visioning, right?

The District 5830 Legacy Campaign- "What's your Rotary Legacy?", is full steam ahead! There have been multiple club presentations and conversations regarding how you can leave a lasting legacy that will help make a difference. Rotarians all across 5830 are stepping forward and determining how they can make, either an outright gift or a bequest that will change lives of the most needy. I encourage every Rotarian, young and not so young, to ask yourself the question above and decide what your answer will be. Please remember to consider taking advantage of year end gifts that can be a tax benefit to you. We are fast approaching the halfway mark of reaching our goal of exceeding One Million Dollars in outright or committed gifts! A big, "Thank You'" to all who have already made the step to support our Legacy Campaign!
