Greetings from District Governor Mandy Jo Lohrum! 

Fellow Rotarians,

As I reflect on this past year, my heart is filled with gratitude, joy, and deep admiration for each and every one of you. Serving as your District Governor has been the greatest honor—and truly the greatest year—of my life as a Rotarian.

From the very beginning, I set out to connect with as many of you as possible, to learn from you, to support your work, and to celebrate the service that makes Rotary so impactful. What I didn’t expect was just how much you would inspire me. Whether I was visiting a small but mighty club or standing before hundreds at a major event, I saw the same spirit everywhere: dedication, kindness, generosity, and a deep commitment to doing good in the world.

The joy I felt in meeting and working alongside each of you is something I will carry with me always. Every handshake, every conversation, every project site visit reminded me of why Rotary matters—because of people like you who choose service over self, time and time again.

This year, we raised the bar. We tackled big goals, launched meaningful initiatives, grew our Foundation Endowment, and supported one another through challenges. And through it all, we built something lasting—a legacy of leadership and love that will echo throughout our district for years to come.
Thank you for trusting me, supporting me, and allowing me to serve in this role. It has been the privilege of a lifetime.

While my time as District Governor comes to a close, my commitment to Rotary and to all of you remains stronger than ever.

With deep gratitude and Rotary love,

Mandy Jo Lohrum Rotary District 6580
