She attributes her theme, "The Magic of Rotary," to a service trip to install water filters in the Dominican Republic. Two boys were watching as dirty water entered the filter, then ran out clean at the other end.  “One of the boys grabbed my sleeve and said, ‘Show me the magic again,’” she said. “Obviously, the water filter wasn’t magic. We worked hard to transport those filters, install them, and work with community leaders in the area to maintain them. But those boys knew that easy access to clean water would change their lives. Knowing that I played a small part in that certainly changed my life."
