Installation of the President and Board of the Rotary Club of Glen Ellyn - 2026/27.
This evening the Rotary Club of Glen Ellyn was honored to have the newly installed Governor of Rotary District 6440, Rick Reigner, do the honors of installing the incoming president, Patrick Brosnan, and the board of the club for year 2026/27.
We are making a plan.
It is for the good of the world. Rotary has a lofty goal, it is to eradicate Polio. If we accomplish this effort it will be only the second disease ever eradicated and we are with in One inch of completion.
So our Rotary District 6440 and our local Rotary club plan on putting a face to the effort.
On October 24th, 2026 we will walk!
We plan on letting our community know that this disease is still a world wide scourge,
but it is almost extinct, as it has been in the USA since the nineteen eighties.
We are going to ask all of the community to walk with us.
The plans are in the works. Wait for the details , probably in September 2026.
This week Lyle Staab, Past District Governor, spoke to us about the plan.
It is going to be a walk in dozens of communities from Canada to Texas.
The point is to raise awareness of the threat to all the world, until we finish the job.
If you are interested in helping or joining our club ,please contact or local club.

The club has had a good year for membership. 
Since June of 2025 we have inducted 5 new members.
The latest is Paul Stephanides who happens to be the attorney for the Village of Glen Ellyn. His sponsor is Mark Franz, Village manager.
We look forward to his active participation in the endeavors of the Rotary Club of Glen Ellyn.
With pleasure, I inducted a new Member yesterday. Beth Gorez is our newest member. She is already to get to work and has winning smile. Look for news of her accomplishments in the future.
We are taking applications for membership right now! Some of our followers need to come to a meeting and witness us first hand, then sigh up to be a member/volunteer with our club...PJ
