Dave Marold
The Bohlin Company
 
Dave Marold, President and CEO of The Bohlin Company, will talk about The Bohlin Company.  The Bohlin Brand is as iconic as the famed western stars that wore it.  When the Lone Ranger cried “Hi-yo, Silver!” as he rode to the rescue, both he and his white horse were equipped with Bohlin-made silver-mounted gear. Happily, The Bohlin Company that created these products in the 1940s continues today, maintaining original designs and traditions for fancy belt buckles and other jewelry in the mode of the company founder, all while innovating with new and exciting products to serve a contemporary audience.

Topic: What is it that Rotary can accomplish and inspires each of us to do?

In 50 words or less, capture your feelings about Rotary.
The contest will run through March 5.
 
The winner gets free admission to the Foundation Gala to be held March 28.
