THE MILT MATTHEWS GOVERNOR ELECT<br />

HOSPITALITY WEEK NEWSLETTER<br />

FROM ROTARY DISTRICT <strong>7120</strong><br />

May 2007 Our 39th Year<br />

This Year’s Guests - 19 Governors Elect and Spouses<br />

The Program<br />

For the past 39 years Brighton Rotary Club and <strong>District</strong> <strong>7120</strong> have home hosted over 461 Governors Elect and their spouses<br />

<strong>from</strong> 37 countries worldwide. The idea for the program was conceived in 1969 by PDG Milt Matthews, and has been copied by<br />

many other <strong>District</strong>s throughout the United States.<br />

Each Governor Elect guest is assigned two Rotary hosts. Their first host meets them at the airport on arrival and takes them to<br />

their home. In the middle of the stay, everyone meets at Brighton Rotary Club’s Exchange Dinner. All the hosts and guests have<br />

the opportunity to get acquainted and share Rotary experiences. When the meeting is over the guests leave with their second host<br />

for the balance of their stay.<br />

Attending RI Convention in Salt Lake City?<br />

<strong>Letters</strong> <strong>from</strong> <strong>Two</strong> <strong>Hosts</strong><br />

January 28, 2007<br />

Dear Pete,<br />

I have been a Rotarian since 1963 and have 38 years of perfect<br />

attendance (bona fide-no phony substitutes). I have<br />

attended several <strong>District</strong> conferences and hosted PDG Andy<br />

Haynes conference in 1967 while serving as President of the<br />

Clifton Springs Rotary Club. All of these pale and become<br />

mere shadows of the past when compared to the most<br />

memorable Rotary experience of my lifetime now that I<br />

have experienced the joy of participating in the Milt Matthews<br />

Host Program.<br />

I'm sure it was the "luck of the draw", but there could never<br />

have been a more perfect match than you made by allowing<br />

Hellon and I to host DGE John Dumbrell and his lovely wife<br />

Jean.<br />

If we live long enough, both Hellon and I look forward to<br />

visiting John and Jean at their home on the Thames River.<br />

God willing, we both<br />

hope to be able to<br />

participate in this<br />

Host Program in<br />

2008.<br />

Sincerely<br />

David, Hellon, John, & Jean<br />

Things We Did<br />

Dear Pete,<br />

Our guests <strong>from</strong> Nelson, New<br />

Zealand: Rex and Jo Morris<br />

never have snow on the ground<br />

at home. To see snow, they have<br />

to travel to their Southern Alps.<br />

So they were quite excited to<br />

experience our pretty snowfalls<br />

Rex & Jo<br />

We traveled to Charlotte, Ontario<br />

Beach Park, one day, and walked on the snow-covered sand at the<br />

beach; and another day, we took photos of the ice blocks on Canandaigua<br />

Lake and the frozen waves at Conesus. Rex learned two<br />

new skills while he was here: brushing snow off the car, and shoveling<br />

snow <strong>from</strong> the sidewalk. Unfortunately, he will not have a<br />

chance to practice at home.<br />

They were also fascinated by squirrels in our backyard, as there are<br />

no squirrels in New Zealand. Needless to say, they did not attempt<br />

to introduce the species to Nelson.<br />

Our Rotary Club in Avon had a welcome get-together at my home<br />

on Monday, January 22, for Rex and Jo, and we were delighted that<br />

DG Jim and Jane Holden were able to join us, and to bring their<br />

guests, Sumo and Sola Omoniyi, <strong>from</strong> Nigeria. As our prez, Jim<br />

Tompsett, said, "This certainly<br />

proves the "International" aspect<br />

of RI: where else can members<br />

meet and chat with visitors <strong>from</strong><br />

two such widely-separated countries,<br />

and experience their cultures,<br />

than in Rotary?"<br />

The Milt Matthews Governor Elect Hospitality<br />

Letter <strong>from</strong> Pete<br />

Dear Alumni <strong>Hosts</strong> and Guests<br />

I’ve had the wonderful opportunity to chair this program for the last twelve years and now<br />

it’s time for others to take the reign. Ernie Bullock, a long time host and active member of the<br />

committee for many years has volunteered to take charge. I’ll be here, to help, to host, to take<br />

pictures, and do the newsletter.<br />

Thanks to Chuck Chapin my predecessor who ran the program for four years before I took<br />

charge, to Peter Runke, Chuck’s predecessor and to our founder Milt Matthews for running<br />

this program for those many years. Thanks, to all the <strong>District</strong> <strong>7120</strong> hosts for opening their<br />

homes and their hearts to make this the best hospitality program in the Rotary world.<br />

Elaine & I have gained wonderful friends around the world, have visited their countries,<br />

stayed in their homes. It’s an honor and a privilege to be a part of the Rotary family.<br />

Peter D. Schwarz<br />

Next Year’s Program:<br />

January 4 to 12, 2008<br />

If you get this newsletter by mail, send us your email address if you<br />

have one. We can then email you next year’s newsletter, get it to you<br />

sooner and save the postage.<br />

Tell your next Governor Elect about our program and<br />

send us his or her email address so we can send an invitation.<br />
