DISTRICT LEADERSHIP ANNOUNCEMENTS |
Seeking Team Leader Applications For 2013 GSE
District 5300 will participate in a GSE program exchange with District 3291 (Calcutta, India) from January 5, 2013 to February 5, 2013. As most of you know, 2013 will be the last year for GSE in its current format. For that reason, we've heard that many Rotarians who thought they would like to lead a GSE team someday have realized that the time to do it is NOW! Applications for Team Leaders should be submitted by 7/7/12 to maryann.avnet@marsh.com. If you have questions, please contact GSE Chair, Mary Ann Avnet at 702-824-8590. For additional information and application forms, click here. |
Host Club wanted for Rotary Youth Exchange student!
A young man from Ecuador wants to come to our District and attend High School. He would arrive in August and stay until next July. A club in our District signed up to host him but at the last moment lost the families that were going to help. Is there another club in our District that step in and host this student? If you are interested in helping out, please contact PDG Jerry Tambe at 626 930 0804. |
Rotary Showcase Launched
It's here! Rotary Showcase, officially launched at the 2012 Bangkok Convention, is Rotary International's newest social media tool that helps Rotarians share service initiatives with the Rotary family and beyond. Users can add their club's service projects, exchange ideas with other Rotarians, and explore the wide variety of activities that Rotary clubs are undertaking worldwide. Showcase users can also upload project pictures, create discussions about their initiatives, and even join projects that other Rotarians have created. The application connects directly to Facebook to broadcast club accomplishments globally with the simple click of a button. Please direct any questions to rotary.service@rotary.org. |
