What a fun time we had at Kettering Night Out! Thanks to everyone who donated supplies and came out to help!
Cheers to Matt McFarland for a fantastic year as Kettering Rotary President! Matt led our club through 2025–2026 with heart, humor, and a whole lot of Rotary spirit, and we are so grateful for everything he did to make the year a success. Last night, we toasted Matt at Back Nine, shared some laughs, and had a great time celebrating a job well done. Thank you, Matt, for your leadership, dedication, and all the fun along the way! We’re also excited to see what Tina Howard will bring to her presidency and can’t wait for another great year of Kettering Rotary.
Kettering Rotary and Dayton Rotary came together to clean up the river. Over 800 pounds of trash was removed. Thanks to Matt W & Matt Mc for representing our club. Read the new coverage HERE
Today, members of our club were honored to represent our club and attend the Leadership Breakfast for Scouting America. President Matt, Larry, Tina, Kerrie, Vivette, Ted, and Brenda were all in attendance.
It’s always an inspiring event, with the highlight being hearing firsthand how scouting truly impacts the lives of young people. We had the pleasure of sitting with Liam and his mother, and enjoyed such a meaningful and fun conversation with them both.
Scouting helps build confidence, leadership, and character in kids—teaching them responsibility, service to others, and a strong sense of community. The Scout Oath says it best: to do their duty, help other people at all times, and keep themselves physically strong, mentally awake, and morally straight. It’s a powerful foundation that stays with them for life.
