President's Corner

Future Vision!!!!!!!!!!!!  Buzz!!!!!!!!!!!!!!  We had the pleasure as our guest speaker last week Past President Roger White address the club on Future Vision.  Get used to it, as you will hear a lot about it from now until the end of the year.  At that time Rotary International will officially begin all the programs, which are now part of a 3-year test pilot.  Some programs as we know them will go away, others will stay just as they are and still others will be all new.  
Roger White



Every club must comply with certain criteria, so the work has already begun at District level by training and providing the clubs the resources to achieve this compliance.  Past President Roger is one of these individuals who are providing training and guidance for achieving this goal.  Public Relations Chair LaVerne is also our clubs Future Vision Chair; she has attended numerous seminars in order to garner as much information to help make this transition as smooth as possible.  Thank You, LaVerne. 

Media Lunch!!!!!!!!!!!!!  Television!!!!!  Radio!!!!!!  On-Line Newspaper!!!!

Each area of the media was represented at a luncheon hosted by Rotary II on Tuesday at the campus of The University of the Virgin Islands.  Public Relations Chair LaVerne had this vision and with it the hope that the media and Rotary II can partnership and service our community more effectively.  New Generations Chair Sinclair, Foundation Chair  Marilyn, Fellowship Chair  Ash, Public Relations Chair LaVerne and representing Service Projects Chair Jerry was Rot. Sean, all of who presented reports.  Past President Al was in attendance equipped with his camera along with Public Relations committee members Past President Val and Rot. Cathy. We came away enthusiastic and positive about the suggestions made by both Rotary II and the media.  Thank you to LaVerne and her committee and all the Directors who attended.
