Immediate Past District 5950 Governor and proud EMRC member Tom Gump has been traversing area clubs sharing the parade theme “Dream, Believe, Achieve: Celebrating Education.” He, along with fellow "Rotary Rose Bowl Parade Ambassadors" Mike DeLuca and District Governor Elect Lloyd Campbell, have enticed nearly a dozen 5950 Rotarians and families to travel to Pasadena to participate in all aspects of the Rose Parade event from float preparation to the post-parade Floatfest. One highlight will be a dinner with Rotary International President Shekar Meta.

“We’re honored to be involved, representing our district and participating in an event shining a spotlight on the good work of Rotary for an audience of 40 million worldwide,” Gump said.
