Springfield Twin Rivers: Early Morning Energy, Olympian Spirit, and Red to Blue District Governor Chris Waugh visited the Springfield Twin Rivers Club on Friday, March 6th at 7 am—fueled by a bountiful breakfast at the Eugene Mission! President John Kimpton opened the meeting, and Mary Bartlett inspired everyone with stories of Olympians who refused to quit. Governor Waugh presented an award recognizing the club's financial support for the End Polio Now Countdown. President John awarded Blue Badges to three Red Badge members: Belinda Ray, Karen Davis, and Jameson Auten. This moment sparked an important question: some clubs have stopped the Red-to-Blue Badge process. Has yours? This program familiarizes new members with Rotary, helps them feel engaged and involved, and introduces them to fellow members. The faster we assimilate new members, the more loyal they'll be. The Springfield Twin Rivers Club invites you to get up early on a Friday, head to the Eugene Mission for a fabulous breakfast, and start your day with Rotarian energy. Governor Waugh sure did! #Rotary #SpringfieldTwinRivers #RedToBlue #NewMemberEngagement #EndPolioNow #EarlyBirdRotary #District5110Photos from Rotary District 5110's post
