Meet 2022-2023 DISTRICT GOVERNOR Ken Miller PHF, PP
Thank you for the opportunity to introduce myself, I am a member of the Rotary Club of Emerald and District located in the beautiful Dandenong Ranges in Victoria, about an hour’s drive from Melbourne.
I joined Rotary in 2005 and I have served the Club in many roles including Club President in 2009-2010, Membership Chair, Treasurer, Vice President, Chair of the iconic Kids Fun Run with Thomas the Tank Engine (5 Years) and Co- chair of the Great Community Raffle (Funds Raised exceed $1 million) At District level I have chaired Community Service, Club Development, Public Image and Communication, and worked on various sub committees Zone 8 Assistant Public Image Coordinator.
Rotary Foundation is the cornerstone of Rotary International and is one of my passions. I have made the Rotary Foundation my partner’s project in 2022-23, I am proud to be a member of the Paul Harris Society and a Centurion.
A very passionate Rotarian where I have had the opportunity to meet and be inspired by many outstanding and selfless Rotarians, I am very privileged to be chosen to lead District 9810 in 2022-23.
I have 3 Daughters and a son plus a number of foster children that have adopted my family as their own. Totaling 32, my family is a very large one and is spread far and wide throughout Australia. We catch up as often as possible and any family gathering is a major event.
At an early age I was introduced to primary industry via the family dairy farm and this eventually led me to Marketing and Leadership positions in the equine industry. An interesting and fruitful occupation that has given me the opportunity to travel and work at most of the major horse racing centres throughout the world.
I look forward to working with you all and together striving for a happy, vibrant and productive Rotary.
Yours in Service
Ken

Theme for 2022-23 ......IMAGINE ROTARY
Imagine Rotary” is the 2022-23 presidential theme that RI President-elect Jennifer Jones revealed on 20 January. She is asking Rotary members to dream big and take action: “We all have dreams, but acting on them is a choice. Imagine a world that deserves our best, where we get up each day knowing that we can make a difference.”
The logo for the theme was designed by Riki Salam, an Australian artist and graphic designer specializing in contemporary Indigenous art, design, and communications. He also created the 2023 Rotary International Convention logo which will be held in Melbourne, Australia, thus connecting the two by a shared visual language.
