Membership Matters to All of Us!
When our District Club Extension ChairTom Smith visits, he always brings a great message to inspire Rotarians.  His presentation on Wednesday was about clubs concentrating on membership retention.  He talked about having people assigned to mentoring and providing timely information to new members.  Keeping Rotarians engaged and keeping Rotary relevant should be our real focus.  How we greet and treat visitors and potential members at regular meetings is also important.  New members are joining Rotary clubs, so that isn't really an area of concern.  In short, we need to put more effort on keeping Rotarians engaged.   New members want to participate and contribute, and really, don't we all? For those were not there, you can view the presentation (PDF) or watch (video)
 
Our visitors were Interact President and Vice President ShinMei Javier and Sukvir Dosanjh. 
 
 
How Rotary helped my Career
Joyce Lau, past president of the Rotary Club of Lan Kwai Fong, Hong Kong, her Rotary experience helped her land a position with a major financial firm in Hong Kong. 
 
She was invited to join Rotaract on her first day of University. Having benefited so much from Rotaract, she joined Rotary when she had the chance. But never would thought that Rotary would take her career to the next level. Three years ago she was offered the position of Financial Controller by a Past President of the Rotary Club that had sponsored her Rotary Club and Rotaract Club. Some time later, she found out she was chosen because she was someone he could trust.

Board of directors include four Rotarians.
 
I am away...
Please let President Dean know you are away so we don't worry about you.
