Jody L. Light owns and operates Campus Creations, LLC, a national collegiate fundraising and gift service company from her hometown of Buckhannon, WV, as well as assisting in the management of her parents rental properties.  Her past years in Sales & Marketing in various hotels and convention bureaus in five states prompted her to move home and open a retail gourmet gift basket business in 1996 later evolving into her current business working primarily with colleges across the country.

Joining the Rotary Club of Buckhannon, WV in 1998, Jody quickly became involved in coordinating the club’s major fundraising program … a highly successful semi-annual blood screening project which currently serves over 4,000 people annually in the community.  With her predecessor moving from the area shortly after becoming President, Jody stepped into the President’s role early serving in that capacity for nearly 2 years.

An Assistant Governor for 3 years, Jody has also served on the District Finance Committee (2005 – 2007), DG and Ambassadorial Scholar Nominating Committee, District International Promotion Chair, and District Conference Chair (2001).  She recently graduated from RLI Leadership Training and later participated in Faculty Training in June, 2007.  She is a multiple Paul Harris Fellow, is currently serving as District 7530 Membership Chair, and was recently nominated to serve as District 7530’s Governor for 2009-2010.

A single business lady, Jody also volunteers with other local organizations including the Landlords Association, Special Olympics, and WV Strawberry Festival.   With her love of traveling and helping others, she is excited at the honor of visiting and working with fellow Rotarians in her District and beyond as DG 2009-2010.
