Rotary Club of Cincinnati – Meeting Recap

June 4, 2026 | The Transept

The Rotary Club of Cincinnati enjoyed an informative and forward-looking meeting as members gathered for fellowship, welcomed a new member, and learned about the rapidly evolving world of blockchain and digital assets.

Featured Speaker
Our featured speaker was Michael Hiles, Founder and CEO of 10XTS . Michael shared insights into the future of blockchain technology, digital asset tokenization, information governance, and the opportunities and challenges organizations face in an increasingly digital economy.
Drawing on his extensive experience as a nationally recognized expert in blockchain and digital transformation, Michael provided an engaging and thought-provoking presentation that sparked great discussion among members and guests.

New Member Introduction
We were pleased to welcome new member Carsten Kreuzer to the Rotary Club of Cincinnati. Carsten introduced himself to the club and shared a bit about his background and interests. We are excited to have him join our Rotary family and look forward to his contributions to our mission of service above self.

Looking Ahead

On June 18, our Featured Speaker will be Cincinnati Bengals Head Coach Zac Taylor.
Meetings like this remind us of the value of bringing together leaders, innovators, and community-minded professionals to learn from one another and strengthen our impact throughout Greater Cincinnati.

Thank you to Michael Hiles for an outstanding presentation and to all who joined us for another great Rotary meeting.

🎈🎤 BREAKING NEWS FROM THE FIELD! 🎤🎈
To kick off the 31st season of providing hot air balloon rides at
Camp Allyn for Stepping Stones Inc. Campers, we've dispatched our very own Special Correspondent, Ed Mathis , to cover the action.

After undergoing intensive training in balloon inflation, field reporting, and overcoming gravity-related concerns, Ed filed the following exclusive report from Camp Allyn. While Rotary cannot officially confirm whether he volunteered for the balloon ride or was gently encouraged by campers, we can confirm he returned safely and with a smile.

Here's Ed's firsthand account of an unforgettable evening:

"Last night we kicked off another season of Camp Allyn Balloon Rides in partnership with Stepping Stones, and what a special evening it was.
A huge thank you to the Rotary Club of Cincinnati Foundation for its incredible stewardship of Camp Allyn and the campgrounds that make moments like this possible for so many families each year.
Thank you to Tammy Young for the great photos, Mark Soupene and Steve Rosenzweig for patiently teaching me how to help set up a hot air balloon, and Chris Adams for his outstanding leadership at Stepping Stones and all they do to serve our community.
The highlight of the night was seeing the smiles on the campers’ faces as they experienced something many will never forget.
And yes, for those wondering, I’m not exactly used to being lifted up into the air, but I couldn’t let the campers show me up! 😄🎈
Service Above Self in action."

The Rotary Club of Cincinnati’s May Neighborhood Coffee Networking Event was a wonderful success, bringing together 25 attendees for a morning of conversation, connection, and community.

Still reflecting on what an incredible evening Play it Forward turned out to be.
Last week, Rotarians, community leaders, sponsors, and supporters came together to help rebuild the beloved Cincinnati Parks 1000 Hands Playground and support children and families across our community through Cincinnati Rotary Foundation grants.More than 20 years ago, Rotary helped build one of the region’s first all-adaptable playgrounds. After it was tragically destroyed, our community stepped forward once again to continue that legacy for future generations.
Thank you to everyone who attended, donated, volunteered, and helped make the evening possible. And thank you to WLWT and FOX19 for helping share this important story.

This is what community looks like.
