On behalf of the Punta Gorda Rotary, several of our members proudly attended the recent Reignite Rotary District Fellowship Event—an inspiring gathering that brought together Rotarians, non-profits, and local area vendors for an evening of fellowship, connection, and celebration of Rotary’s impact.
Most of our Public Image Team was in attendance, along with Club President Alicia Oates, our Youth Exchange student Blanca from Córdoba, Spain, and Paul F. Blaine, Youth Services Project Chair. It was a wonderful opportunity to meet a large group of amazing people from across our district and beyond, all united by the spirit of service and community.
One of the highlights of the evening came from our very own Theresa Brackett, Public Relations Chair, who shared her personal “ah-ha moment”—the instant she realized joining Rotary was the right decision for her. Her heartfelt words reflected the pride, joy, and sense of belonging that so many of us feel as part of Rotary.
The event was filled with fun, fellowship, and meaningful connections. We left with renewed energy, fresh ideas, and excitement about the work ahead. Most importantly, it was a reminder of why Rotary continues to change lives both locally and globally.
A big thank you to all who made this event possible, and to our members who represented Punta Gorda Rotary with such enthusiasm. We are already looking forward to the next opportunity to come together with our Rotary family and community partners!
