The downtown patios, beer gardens and clubs bustle before and after the event, so come early and stay late! The Park and Riverfront welcomes boaters and tailgaters who picnic before and during the event. The Amphitheater gates usually ope

Dawn Fiedler: 6270 District Governor

Hide Details

When I accepted the nomination to serve as your District Governor, I began by listening and learning. I then focused on understanding the facts and how to move forward with purpose. My year as District Governor-Elect arrived quickly and felt like a freight train—exciting, humbling, and intense.
My work has already allowed me to visit many clubs as a speaker, giving me the chance to hear what matters most to you. I look forward to meeting many more of you and expanding my Rotary family across the district.
As I visit clubs around the district, I will come ready to listen—not to present slides. I want to sit with you, hear your story, and learn your “why”. What inspires your commitment to Rotary. I hope to discuss:
· Why you joined Rotary
· What keeps you engaged in your club
· Your local and global service priorities
· How the district can better support your impact
As we grow our clubs, we also grow our ability to lift up our communities, strengthen our fellowship, and extend hope across the world. Together, let us lead with generosity, serve with purpose, and inspire others to join us in
making a lasting difference.

In Service,
2026-27 Rotary District 6270 Governor
