ABOUT PHIL MORRIS

Phil Morris was invited to join the Rotary Club of Furnitureland in 1978 to fill the classification of Public Library Administration.

In 1987 he organized the first District 7690 Club Bulletin Exchange, a project that has evolved into the formation of the District Club Bulletin Committee. In 1999 he developed the district's website, www.Rotary7690.org, which was recognized at the RI Convention in San Antonio as the best website in Zone 33 for 2001. He manages the District's e-mail network. In 2001 he was asked to develop a website for Rotary Fellowships. The website www.RotaryFellowships.org, has been recognized by Rotary International as a resource for the Rotary Fellowships program.
