On October 24th, 2025, Rotary Club of Solon was joined by Lowell Perry, Jr. of the Greater Cleveland Film Commission (GCFC), of which he is the Chief Diversity Officer and Vice President of Corporate and Community Engagement. We learned that the GCFC does so much more than film movies here in Ohio. They are responsible for nearly $1.4 billion in gross economic output and have contributed to the created of 7,100+ full-time equivalent jobs.

Bob Oborn our District Governor and Phillip Weiss our Assistant District Governor stopped by for a visit too!
