"Zoom is Back!!
Well, we never know what is around the corner, but as Rotarians we are experienced at seizing opportunities! You will have seen in the District Newsletter, an invitation to participate in RLI (Rotary Leadership Institute), now scheduled for September. Given the uncertainty of current lockdown circumstances, we can use our planned programme as an opportunity for our Rotarians and Rotaractors to connect, share ideas and consider how we can support our clubs and members. This will also enable our Pacific Island clubs to attend. We will only offer the online component of the programme at this time, and when the community situation is more certain, we will look at when and where we later deliver the face to face day. We will run the programme over 3 online sessions for 60-90 minutes each time. There will also be some preparatory learning through the Learning Center on myrotary.org. If you do these modules, you will be well prepared to participate in the discussions during our online sessions as these will be discussion-based. The pre-learning we ask you to complete is: Complete 4 modules in the Learning Center: Rotary Basics; Foundation Basics; Rotary’s Areas of Focus; The Rotary Brand. Each module takes between 15 and 45 minutes to complete. Before you start you need to make sure you have a My Rotary account and know how to log on to the Learning Center.

Have you noticed 'TBA' in the Upcoming Speaker list? Well, it's not there to create mystery and suspense! TBA generally means we are having difficulty securing a speaker for that date. If you have any ideas, hints or leads for possible Guest Speakers for our morning and evening meetings, please let your Club Services Director (Robyn) know.
