President Marion Report
This has been a busy week for our District conducting not only Presidents Elect Preparation (PEP) training for incoming presidents on Saturday, but also District Assembly all day Sunday.
Dini, Merilyn, Sandy, Tracy, Rose, Mark and I attended Assembly and the training sessions afterwards. Merilyn and various club members also sold another 5 books of raffle tickets. We saw the presentation for the 2023-2024 Rotary Year. Incoming President Gordon R McInally, his background and his vision for his Rotary year includes effective mentoring, a Rotary that reflects our times, best membership practices and respect to all. Updated training included IT especially clubrunner and My Rotary, current International projects especially Shelterbox, Youth programs, secretarial and treasurers updates, also news about our insurance, safe work practices and timely paperwork. Plans for the Centenary of Rotary in South Australia were unveiled as was the latest on the Rotary Foundation. An enjoyable day for all those attending.
