I am so incredibly honored to serve as President of the Findlay Rotary Club. Throughout my professional life, I have watched the “giants” of our city lead this organization and do great things for our community and the world. The mission continues today, and it is truly humbling to head this amazing group of community leaders, all living the Rotary motto of “Service Above Self”.

As incoming President, I had the opportunity to travel to Taipei City, Taiwan for this year’s Rotary International Convention. It was truly inspiring to see the global reach of Rotary firsthand, and so heartwarming to instantly become friends with fellow Rotarians while waiting in airports and travelling together on subways. While by design, most of our club’s work focuses on our local community, the experience opened my eyes to a bigger picture and an appreciation for the size and scope of this organization. I look forward to more multi-cultural experiences, as our club has a strong connection to the Rotary Club of Kawaguchi City in Japan, members of which will be visiting us in Findlay
soon!

This year’s Rotary theme is “Create Lasting Impact”. I hope you will join us in doing just that. If you are a member of Rotary, I invite you to participate more fully in the work of Rotary. If not, I invite you to support our mission, participate in our projects and fundraisers, or even become a member of our club. The saying goes “Many hands
make light work”, and from what I’ve seen, many community leaders make great things happen, and have fun while they’re doing it. I thank you for your support, and am looking forward to a great year for our club!

President Irvin Reinhart
Findlay Rotary Club President, 2026-2027
