This past weekend, AG Brandon Palmeri proudly represented the Rotary Club of Weirton Heights and Area 1 at the District 7545 Conference in Kingwood, WV. It was an amazing weekend packed with friendship, inspiration, and plenty of Rotary spirit, all centered around our shared commitment to Service Above Self.
A special highlight of the conference was Brandon serving as the transportation aide for polio survivor Ramesh Ferris, who traveled from Canada to share his powerful story about living with polio and the impact it has had on his life. As you can see from the photos, Brandon and Ramesh had a fantastic time together throughout the weekend, sharing laughs and making memorable connections along the way.
Ramesh’s presentation was both heartfelt and uplifting, inspiring Rotarians to keep the momentum going in support of Rotary’s End Polio Now campaign and helping move us one step closer to a polio-free world.
Over the coming weeks, Brandon will be visiting clubs throughout Area 1 to share exciting district updates, fresh ideas, and highlights from the conference as we continue working together to make a positive impact in our communities.
