Chuck Shonkwiler, DISTRICT 6670

Chuck Shonkwiler grew up in a small city in South Central Ohio named Greenfield. Life in Greenfield was quite simple in the 50’s and 60’s. The oldest of 3 children, I enjoyed family times on Rocky Fork Lake, in Highland County, Ohio, and family camping trips across the United States.

A 1971 graduate of Edward Lee McClain High School in Greenfield, I left for Annapolis, Maryland and the United States Naval Academy just three weeks after graduation. For the next sixteen months, I attended daily drills, a cruise across the Atlantic Ocean during the summer of 1972, and was being trained to be a Naval Officer. In the early fall of 1972, I decided to process out of the Naval Academy to pursue a career as a Pastor.

In the late summer of 1973, I returned to College at Cumberland College in Williamsburg, Kentucky. I graduated with a BA in History with a minor in Mathematics in 1976. During my Senior year, I served as Vice President of the Student Government Association. In addition to the course work and Student Government activities, i began serving as Pastor and Youth Pastor in Churches near school.

I met Karen Loveless during Orientation before the beginning of the 1973 Academic Year. Our romance moved quickly, and we were married March 9, 1974. After completing my degree, I worked in the Admissions Office while Karen finished her degree in Music Education. She graduated in 1977.
In the late summer of 1977, I began my Theological studies at Asbury Theological Seminary in Wilmore, Kentucky. During the Seminary years, I served as Part-theme Pastor in Southern Ohio. After completing my theological studies, I graduated with a Master of Divinity in May 1980.

From the summer of 1980 until late June of 2021, I served in various churches in North, Central, and Southern Ohio as a United Methodist Pastor.
The father of three, grandfather of nine, and great-grandfather of one. I appreciate and enjoy my family: Sarah Dawley of Edmond, Oklahoma, Joel Shonkwiler, of Westfield, Indiana, and Hannah Scruggs of Fairborn, Ohio are the children. Sarah and four children, Joel—three, and Hannah—two. Sarah’s oldest, Annabelle is the mother of our Great-granddaughter.

I have been involved as a Rotarian since October, 1997, beginning with the Rotary Club of Fairborn. After moving to Hillsboro, Ohio in July 2003, I became a part of the Rotary Club of Hillsboro. The next move in 2010 brought a change to the Rotary Club of Blanchester. Unfortunately, the Blanchester Club was not able to continue, so having bought a retirement home in Fairborn, I returned to the Fairborn Club in the summer of 2018.
Since becoming a part of Rotary, I have grown to appreciate many of the benefits provided by participating in Rotary Clubs and District Rotary activities. Serving as President of Blanchester, a small club, allowed for learning more about the activities and benefits of participating in Rotary International activities. After returning to Fairborn, being allowed to be President of a thriving Rotary Club added even more commitment to serving Rotary in every way possible.

I began to serve as Assistant Governor in 2023. Being able to provide resources to the four Clubs that I was assigned has continued my learning about the benefits of serving as a Rotarian.

Now. I have entered the G-line. I look forward to learning even more ways to serve Rotary and Rotarians. It is a privilege to begin the movement toward being District 6670 Governor for 26-27.
