May 6th Stratford Rotaract Club Meeting
Hello Rotaractor!
 
This week at Rotaract...
 
This week, our guest speaker will be Tyler Canal, President of the Festival City Rotary Club.  We have invited Tyler to discuss the Festival City Club, how their members are continuing to help through the Covid-19 situation, the experience of being president and the lessons learned to provide insight for future board members.
 
At this time the Covid-19 situation has evidently limited abilities to perform group physical projects and tasks and we will need to be creative for the future.  We ask that members bring an idea going forward to help the 2020 Board with potential projects and fundraising campaigns.  A message from District Governor, Tony Sheard "clubs have used a simple ABC approach to help their communities overcome the sudden onset of adversity that has beset them which is best illustrated by their agility, boldness and creativity:
  • Agility - they have been nimble and quick responding
  • Boldness - they have been courageous and decisive
  • Creativity - they have imaginatively found solutions to connect, give service and find alternative fundraising models. 
Our social (online) meeting will start at 7:00pm, just follow the link below.

Last Rotaract Club Meeting...
 
Our last rotaract meeting was a Harry Potter themed social meeting, where we were connected with members from various clubs from District 6330. This was a great time meeting members through the district and to see how they are dealing with Covid-19 situation and fundraising campaigns.
