Thank you to, David Dix for the extraordinary musical talent we experienced on Tuesday, Feb. 22nd!  Kishna Davis Fowler, accompanied by Dr. Kent McWillams with additional musical talent from Jinle Glover led our club in the singing of “Lift Every Voice And Sing.”  What an extraordinary experience for us all!  Thank you, David Dix for making it possible!
 
We have several important events coming up for our club.  Our club’s 4-way speech contest will be next week, March 8th.  We have three brilliant Kent Roosevelt students who will speak on various topics all adhering to the backdrop of the 4-way test.  Then, the winner of that contest along with all the winners from our district’s other clubs, will compete on April 9, 2022.  Our club is honored to be hosting the competition at Kent Roosevelt on Saturday, April 9th.
 
MARK YOUR CALENDAR!  April 22 and 23 is the District Meeting.  It will be at the Sheraton Suites in Cuyahoga Falls.  Since our very own Larry Lohman is District Governor, we want to show every other club in the district how AWESOME we are!  (They know Larry is awesome, but we need to make sure they know the rest of the club is just as awesome!)  Details will be coming soon.  Please plan to be there for as much as you can be!
 
This week we have Dr. Taléa Drummer-Ferrell, KSU Associate VP for Student Affairs & Dean of Students (aka Todd Kamenash’s boss).  Let’s all show up to support Todd (who is amazing!) and make sure that Dr. Drummer-Ferrell knows just how amazing he is!  I suspect she already knows, but we can all use an extra “atta-boy” in front of our supervisor! 
 
We now can pay for our lunches and other Kent Rotary costs via Venmo.  If you don’t have the app on your phone, take a few minutes to go to www.venmo.com.  You can learn more about it and download the app.  There are no extra charges for you or the club, so it’s a way of making everyone’s life a little easier.
 
I look forward to seeing everyone on Tuesday!
 
With gratitude,
 
Kathy
