A Focus on Six Decades of Leadership and Service
Mike Flynn, former editor, and publisher of the Puget Sound Business Journal will interview Governor Evans about his life, his career, and his take on the current political environment.
Daniel J. Evans served as the 16th Governor of the State of Washington for three terms from 1965-1977. He served as the second President of the Evergreen State College from 1977-1983. In 1983 Governor Evans was appointed to the US Senate where he served from 1983-1988.
Before entering politics Dan Evans earned BA and Ma degrees at UW where he became a civil engineer, practicing in both the public and private sectors. The Graduate School of Public Affairs at UW was renamed the Evans School of Public Policy and Governance in honor of Governor Evans in 1989. Governor Evans ranks as one of the most distinguished leaders in the history of the State of Washington, with a life of commitment to public service, with outstanding leadership in governance, education, and the environment, to name a few.

"The best way to find yourself is to lose yourself in service to others."
Wednesday's meeting with Seattle, Los Angeles, San Francisco, Oakland, and Chicago was an interesting view into the future of Rotary membership. Thank you to the over 70 Seattle #4 Rotarians who joined in to listen to Dan Galvin and Jenny Bates.
Rotary International President, Shekhar Mehta has a goal for the 2021-22 Rotary year. He would like each Rotarian to introduce one friend, colleague, or family member to the wonderful world of Rotary.
Each one, Bring One is his mantra.
Who do you know who would be a great Rotarian? Invite them to a meeting, a fellowship event or to join our monthly What is Rotary Zoom call on the 2nd Wednesday of each month. All are welcome.
