Rotary Thursday 7/14/22 with Stuart & Tammy Thompson
Jennifer E. Jones, of the Rotary Club of Windsor-Roseland, Ontario, Canada, is the President of Rotary International for 2022-23.
Jennifer E. Jones, a member of the Rotary Club of Windsor-Roseland, Ontario, Canada, became Rotary International’s President for 2022-23, a groundbreaking selection that will make her the first woman to hold that office in the organization’s 115-year history.
Jones officially became the Rotary International President on July 1st 2022!
Jones says she sees Rotary’s Action Plan as a catalyst for increasing Rotary’s impact.
“As we reflect upon our new strategic priorities, we could have never envisioned that our ability to adapt would become our North Star during what is inarguably the most profound time in recent history,” Jones said in her vision statement. “Silver linings rise out of the most challenging circumstances. Using metric-driven goals, I will harness this historic landscape to innovate, educate, and communicate opportunities that reflect today’s reality.”
As the first woman to be nominated and elected president, Jones understands how important it is to follow through on Rotary’s Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion (DEI) Statement. “I believe that diversity, equity, and inclusion … begins at the top and for us to realize growth in female membership and members under the age of forty — these demographics need to see their own reflection in leadership,” Jones said. “I will champion double-digit growth in both categories while never losing sight of our entire family.”
Jones is founder and president of Media Street Productions Inc., an award-winning media company in Windsor. She was chair of the board of governors of the University of Windsor and chair of the Windsor-Essex Regional Chamber of Commerce. She has been recognized for her service with the YMCA Peace Medallion, the Queen’s Diamond Jubilee Medal, and Wayne State University’s Peacemaker of the Year Award, a first for a Canadian. Jones holds a Doctor of Laws (LL.D.).
A Rotary Foundation trustee, Jones has been a Rotary member since 1997 and has served Rotary as RI vice president, director, training leader, committee chair, moderator, and district governor. She played a lead role in Rotary’s rebranding effort by serving as chair of the Strengthening Rotary’s Advisory Group. She is the co-chair of the End Polio Now Countdown to History Campaign Committee, which aims to raise $150 million for polio eradication efforts.
Jones led the successful #RotaryResponds telethon, which raised critical funds for COVID-19 relief and was viewed by more than 65,000. Jones has also received Rotary International’s Service Above Self Award and The Rotary Foundation Citation for Meritorious Service. She and her husband, Nick Krayacich, are members of The Rotary Foundation’s Arch Klumph Society, Paul Harris Society, and the Bequest Society.
The members of the Nominating Committee for the 2022-23 President of Rotary International were: Robert L. Hall, Dunwoody, Metro Atlanta, Georgia, USA; Bradford R. Howard Oakland Uptown, California, USA; Per Høyen, Aarup, Gelsted, Denmark; Peter Iblher, Nürnberg-Reichswald, Zirndorf, Germany; Ashok Mahajan, Mulund, Mah., India; Sam Okudzeto, Accra, Accra, Ghana; Eduardo San Martín Carreño, Majadahonda, Madrid, Spain; Takeshi Matsumiya, Chigasaki-Shonan, Chigasaki Kanagawa, Japan; Michael K. McGovern (secretary), Cape Elizabeth, Maine, USA; José Alfredo Pretoni, São Paulo-Sul, São Paulo, Brazil; Saowalak Rattanavich, Bang Rak, Bangkok, Thailand; Hendreen Dean Rohrs, Langley Central, Surrey, British Columbia, Canada; Kenneth M. Schuppert, Jr (chair)., Decatur, Alabama, USA; Ravindra P. Sehgal, Belur, West Bengal, India; Noel Trevaskis, Merimbula, Tura Beach, Australia; Giuseppe Viale, Genova, Genova, Italy; and Chang-Gon Yim, Daegu-West, Daegu, Korea.

New little library established at Wheelock
Encouraging words
On their last day of school for the year, the students of Wheelock Primary School had a special dedication, courtesy of the Dunkirk-Fredonia Rotary Club. Now located at the playground right outside the school is a do-it-yourself library for anyone in the community to enjoy.
“Our thing has always been health and environment,” said Sheila Starkey Hahn, who organized the placement at Wheelock school. “We have these pillars. We’ve just added literacy as one of our pillars. Every Rotary club is supposed to put up a free library. Amy Piper, who is the director of Wheelock, OK’d this location and here we are.”
The library is a small wooden box, mounted on a post, and they can be found all around Chautauqua County and the United States as a whole. They are filled with a small selection of books, with the belief being that anyone can either take a book they’re interested in reading or drop one off for other people to enjoy. A similar do-it-yourself library will be added somewhere in Dunkirk sometime this fall, but the exact location is still being worked out by the Dunkirk City Council.
The initial ideas for the location of Wheelock’s lending library originally included a spot-on Temple Street or at Barker Commons. Upon further consideration, the lending library being placed there would have caused a congestion of books in the location, as it would have joined Darwin Barker Library and the Literacy Volunteers Bookstore. Instead, the playground was chosen because it is still easily accessible, while getting some bit of distance between the other book hubs.
“That could have been the book hub of Fredonia,” Starkey Hahn said. “So even if it was after hours, anyone could have gotten a book. But we decided that that was maybe too many books. All year round, there are kids playing at this playground, and it has a bench and shade from the trees. It’s visible from the street so once people know it’s there, they can pull over to drop it off. This seemed like the perfect location.”
Starkey Hahn at first had purchased the library to put in her own front yard, before literacy became a rotary pillar. But after deciding that her house wasn’t the ideal location, she held onto the structure until the right opportunity came up.
“My kids were laughing at me when I bought it because I live on a dead end,” said Starkey Hahn. “But I loved the concept and the community feel. When it came up on one of our weekly calls for Rotary that literacy was a new mission, I had it in my garage. All we needed to do was find a place.”
The Rotary had several goals for this year, including donating to blood banks, Pedal for Polio, the Great Lakes Watershed cleanup, with the libraries being a late addition. Fredonia Mayor Doug Essek was on hand at the dedication and spoke about the importance of having the little free library on the Wheelock Campus.
“Having access to books is essential,” Essek said. “To have the little free library here provides that opportunity to all regardless. I applaud the Dunkirk-Fredonia Rotary for their efforts in providing this to the community.”
The Dunkirk-Fredonia Rotary Club consists of neighbors and community leaders uniting for a common good and taking on the most pressing challenges facing the community and the world. Rotary International links 1.2 million members on six continents. Rotary’s Areas of Focus include promoting peace, fighting disease, providing clean water, saving mothers and children, supporting education, growing local economies, and protecting the environment. The Little Free Library initiative advances the Rotary International goal of combating illiteracy.
"Serve to Change Lives" was the Rotary International theme for July 1st, 2021 through June 30th, 2022 - the Rotary Club of Dunkirk-Fredonia did just that! Throughout the Rotary Year, under the immense leadership and guidance of President Diane Hannum, Rotarians helped change communities and lives for the bettter.
We will gather together on Thursday, July 7th at 4:30 PM at Point Gratiot to honor President Diane, and all of her accomplishments as we prepare to "Imagine Rotary" under the leadership of incoming President, Melanie Witkowski. Being a Rotarian is a privilege like no other, we put others' needs before our own and follow the motto - Service Above Self! Take a look at all of our accomplishments:
