Arch Klumph Society visit PH Memorial and home
On March 30, 56 Arch Klumpf Society (AKS) Rotarians visited the Paul Harris House and Paul Harris Memorial. With RI translators, RI Staff and 17 of my Docent and greeter group, the fully furnished house as when Paul and Jean Harris lived there, was overflowing with curious and happy Rotarians. All enjoyed snacks and beverages served. My assignment to have the interior look like when Paul and Jean lived there is finally finished.
AKS guests were from USA, Brazil, Taiwan, Korea, India, Japan, Canada, Denmark and Holland and more countries.
A wonderful day was spent at our two Rotary historic sites in Evanston.

Jack Selway Fresh Comment Nov17, 2023: Recalling Oct 23, 2014. I was in Chicago as invitee Guest Speaker at RC Peoria North and RC Sunrise to speak on Polio Day about Polio Perspective in Pakistan. DG Nicki Scott (Now RI Vice- President) of RC Sunrise took me and my friend to Presidential Walkway. I visited Paul Harris Cemetry. I deposited $100 with Nicki to pass it on to PDG Irv Kaplan. He then planted Brick in the Presidential Walkway with my name, club name and my country Paksitan engraved on it.
