Another memorable Constitution Parade with Louisville Rotarians lining up units, participating in the parade, and many little and big things before and after the event.

We hope you were part of the community coming together for this annual tradition.

We recently heard about Helix Counseling LLC, with a Louisville office on California Ave. near Reno from Paxton Hodous. Paxton presented about the agency that currently has 8 counselors with specialization from children to seniors, couples, and families. She emphasized their quality of work with individualized mental health care for patients.

She also shared some ways that equine (horse) assisted therapy is used with a partnership at a Massillon facility. Find out more about Helix Counseling at....https://www.helixcounselingllc.com/

The Louisville Rotary adopted the Nickelplate trail in 2009. For the last 17 years our members have been picking up the trail and Metzger Park to help keep it looking great for the community. We got out over the weekend, and it was a great opportunity to talk and get some exercise!

We thank 2025-26 President, Jim Dutter, for his leadership of the Louisville Rotary Club over the last year. Jim's tenure offically ended in July after leading many initiatives and meetings centered around "Uniting for Good"

During his time holding the gavel, the club grew membership, continued to fundraise for the Amphitheater Project at Metzger Park, held a 100th Anniversary Banquet, in addition to the typical ways we give back to the community through events and projects.

We'll share a post about our 2026-27 President, Greg Anderson, soon as he begins his second time serving as club president.

We know that Pets are an important part of any family, and when they pass, it's a difficult time. That's why the Louisville Rotary Club is proud to be a major sponsor of the new Louisville Pet Memorial in Metzger Park. While it's near the dog park, the memorial is for everyone who wants to memorialize any pet. Stop by the library and order a tag ($0.50), and we'll get it posted.

Each year we share stories and posts about the power of the foreign exchange program. One of the best parts of the exchange is how friendships remain for so many years across oceans and around the world.

2022-23 Exchange Student from Spain, Arantxa, who stayed in with the Adkins family, recently invited them to visit with her family at their home in Dénia, Spain. Tricia Adkins reported, "Their entire family & community welcomed us and we got to spend time with Arantxa and her family. We also got to be a part of the Festa Major - which is a week long summer festival. Their Fallas ( district group) made sure we were included in festivities and we really got to experience Spanish culture."

Plans are underway for Arantxa's family to come to Louisville in a few years so they can meet the people who helped make Aran’s exchange year memorable.

This is what exchange is all about - the goodwill & friendships formed!
