Bigger! Better! Bolder! -
The planning begins! District 5370 President's-elect and other 2010-2011 District Leaders met in Edmonton (January 29, 30) and Grande Prairie (February 6th) to begin planning for the coming Rotary year which begins July 1, 2010.
Club Membership profiles for the past 5 years were reviewed followed by discussions which centered around why our district has lost more than 1600 members in the past 5 years. Are we ensuring that Rotary is relevant? Does our membership reflect our communities? What changes must we make to ensure that Rotary service continues and grows?
President's-elect were challenged by District Trainer Wendy McDonald to create an exciting and bold vision for their Rotary year and to build the team and develop plans where all members of the club are involved and empowered in the spirit of Rotary Service to Build Communities and Bridge Continents
Rotarians were reminded of the excellent New Generations Rotary Programs for engaging youth and the need to enhance the public image of Rotary by implementing humanitarian service projects in their communities and communities around the world. Opportunities for connecting with members and potential members through social media were also explored.
Presidents-elect and club leader training will continue in Edmonton on March 5 and 6th, 2010.
