ROTARY CLUB OF SALINA

Dear Fellow Rotarians,

I hope everyone enjoyed a pleasant Halloween. As daylight saving time comes to an end and the cooler days of fall settle in, it seems our daylight hours grow shorter, but our Rotary spirit continues to shine brightly.

I would like to extend my appreciation to Michelle Dolan for coordinating an excellent lineup of programs last month. We had the opportunity to learn more about Kansas Wesleyan University and to enjoy an impressive performance by the KWU Jazz Band.

On October 17–18, I had the privilege of attending the District 5680 Conference in Hays. The event was filled with energy, enthusiasm, and a shared commitment to Rotary’s mission. Emphasis was placed on Polio Eradication, Mental Health Awareness, and Anti-Bullying initiatives—key areas where Rotary continues to make a meaningful impact. Our club was recognized for its contributions to the End Polio Now campaign, a testament to the generosity and dedication of our members.

Thank you to everyone who participated in our End Polio Now Awareness Campaign. It was wonderful to see so many members proudly wearing their red shirts in support of this important cause. Let us continue to build upon this momentum as we move closer to Rotary’s vision of a world free from polio.

As we start a new month, I encourage each of you to bring a guest to meetings and help spread the word of Rotary and all the good that is happening.

Service above self, united for good,

Amanda Otto
