NEW MEMBER, BECKY CALLAHAN, INTRODUCED TO THE CLUB

Posted by Rick Taylor on Dec 12, 2016

At our December 9, 2016 meeting, PP Dan Matthews (sponsor) introduced our newest member, Becky Callahan, to the Rotary Club of Canton.

Becky Callahan has lived in the Lake Township/Uniontown/Hartville area for 29 years. She and her husband, Dan, are both retiring this December. Becky will have worked at ComDoc for 29 years. They have 4 grown children and 4 grandchildren.

Becky is a Leadership Stark Signature graduate. She is currently serving her 2^nd term as board member at Beech Creek Gardens in Alliance. Her husband is also on the board and serves as treasurer. Becky has served as chairperson as well as served on chairs for several events for both Beech Creek and the Stark County Chapter of Community Betterment. She was awarded the prestigious Elly Griffith award at ComDoc, which also included a trip to Mexico.

Becky loves anything to do with the outdoors: fishing, camping, biking, hiking and backpacking. She ran her first half marathon at age 50 and has now run a total of nine of them. Her running “career” was unfortunately sidelined with a recent fracture.

Becky is honored to have her application for the Canton Rotary accepted, and looks forward to learning about Rotary and becoming more involved in her community.
