Listen "24: Ron Felgenhauer - Service Above Self"
Episode Synopsis
Send us a textEarlier this year I became an insurance agent, and not too much longer after that I was recruited to join a project called Project YESS. The project was to get kids out on Lake Erie and on the water and teach them water safety. Over the course of 3 weeks kids would get into the water learn how to swim, kayak, sail, and operate watercraft. The culminating exercise was a 1 week voyage on a tall ship sailing from Wisconsin to Cleveland, Ohio. 1 week without the comforts of home, to operate on a team, and to use that experience into their lives. Little did I know that this project was a part of a much larger organization and it’s just one of the many projects that the Rotary Club of Cleveland has been working on for over 10 years. During COVID this project fell apart due to the obvious. No in person meetings, people re-prioritizing free time, and just plain burnout. Just a month or 2 ago, I was officially welcomed as a member of the Rotary Club of Cleveland where I met today’s guest. In the Cleveland Rotary Club Ron is a celebrity. He’s been a part of it for many years and served as President during one of the toughest times for any member organization, COVID-19. Today we are diving into Ron’s story and how his leadership took them through some of the most trying times any one of us can remember.
