This Week's Speaker
Dan Corso, President, Atlanta Football Host Committee Inc.
Join us this Friday at the Embassy Suites to welcome Dan Corso, President of the Atlanta Football Host Committee Inc. Dan joined the Atlanta Sports Council (ASC) in 1999 after serving as Vice Chair of the Festival Division for the 1998 Chick-fil-A Peach Bowl. As the President of ASC, Dan facilitates the growth and development of sports in metro Atlanta by recruiting for major regional, national, and international sporting events.
Since Dan has been with ASC, it has hosted several prominent sporting events such as the NCAA Men’s and Women’s Final Four, MLB, NHL, and NBA All-Star Games, WrestleMania XXVII, and ACC and SEC Basketball Tournaments. Most recently, the ASC managed the effort to successfully recruit the 2018 College Football Playoff National Championship, Super Bowl LIII (2019), and the 2020 NCAA Men’s Final Four. During his time at the ASC, the organization has been named Sports Commission of the Year by the National Association of Sports Commissions four times (2000, 2004, 2006, and 2015).
Corso is President of the Atlanta Football Host Committee Inc., for the 2018 College Football Playoff National Championship, and serves on the Board of Directors for the Atlanta Convention & Visitors Bureau and College Football Hall of Fame, and is on the Advisory Board for the Celebration Bowl.
A Few Things to Know About Dunwody Rotary and Anchor Place
You should already know that part of the FORE! the Memories golf tournament proceeds will go to Anchor Place Respite Care in Dunwoody. You should should also know:
- We're working hard and having fun at Anchor Place - every Monday and Thursday. Just ask Dunwoody volunteers Fred Bounds, Ron and Louise Barden, Tina Philpott, Les Woulfin and Jackie Cuthbert.
- Want to volunteer? Anchor Place will hold volunteer training on May 6 from 10 am to noon. Contact Mary Cohen if you'd like to be part of that training.
- A big celebration is being planned - Anchor Place will soon mark its one year anniversary and we're planning a big picnic on June 14. Watch for more details!
- We're planning an art project at Anchor Place that will require LOTS of plastic bottle caps - save all sizes and colors (ask your friends to help) and bring them with you to Rotary! We will need a lot of BLUE caps to make an Anchor - milk offers a good source of blue!
