Feathers

Jordan Feathers, M.P.T, M.B.A, was installed as Rotary District 7545s newest District Governor for 2023-2024 during a ceremony at the Bridgeport Conference Center on June 23.

Also, during the installation ceremony, Princeton Rotarian Jeff Disibbio, President and CEO of the Chamber of Commerce of the Two Virginias, was installed as the District Governor Elect. Beckley Rotarian Richard Macak, Jr., who is retired from the United States Marine Corps and the United States Department of Defense, was installed as District Governor Nominee.

Rotary District 7545, comprised of 53 clubs and over 2,000 members, covers most of the state of West Virginia, except for the Eastern Panhandle. District 7545 is part of Rotary International, which is a global network of volunteer leaders dedicated to tackling the worlds most pressing humanitarian challenges.

Rotary connects 1.4 million members of more than 46,000 Rotary clubs in over 200 countries and geographical areas. Their work improves lives at both the local and international levels, from helping those in need in their own communities to working toward a polio-free world.

Feathers, a physical therapist with more than 20 years of experience, was recently named the director of the new West Virginia University Medicine Outpatient Rehabilitation Center at University Town Centre in Morgantown (slated to open in 2024).

A Rotarian for the past eight years with the Rotary Club of Cheat Lake, Feathers brings a passion for Rotary to the role. He is a Paul Harris Fellow, past club president and program coordinator, and the club Rotarian of the Year in 2016-2017.

I couldnt be more proud to be associated with Rotary in our state at this time, Feathers said. We are like minded individuals that are intentional about including others that have new ideas and being accessible to the community.

Many Rotary clubs are the service army for their communities and towns. Other clubs give significant grants to other non-profits and school students to improve services or further their education. Its a great time to be involved in Rotary and Im proud to serve alongside our almost two thousand members.

Continuing in the footsteps of previous leadership, Feathers remains focused on growing Rotarys membership throughout the state, as well as continuing to support the Rotary Foundation (Rotarys charitable arm).

Our District has been gaining ground on our regional Rotary counterparts in membership growth and Rotary Foundation giving, Feathers said. We are one of three Districts in our geographical area that are seeing consistent, positive membership growth.

Currently our District Membership team is investigating areas that have never had Rotary clubs before to place clubs in those communities.
