OUR CLUB
From the President
Greetings Rotarians!
On last Saturday, several of our club members participated in a three-hour training session on ClubRunner, the powerful software program used to manage Rotary Clubs and the Rotary District (Montana). Kathy, Victoria, and Martha were there as trainers for the 60+ people in attendance (by Zoom), and several others from our club (I saw Rick, Paul, Patti and myself) were there to learn. The session showed us how to get information about club activities, how to modify information about our club and its members, how to make sure our information is “synced” with the Rotary International database, how to do email, how to create newsletters, store documents, and much more. There is also a ClubRunner “app” for your smartphone, which serves as a handy directory of club members throughout the district. I came aware quite impressed by how powerful and necessary ClubRunner is for a club in these days. I am proud to say that our club is not only in good hands with respect to ClubRunner, but the expertise of several of our members put us in a leadership role. I encourage all of our members to log in and begin exploring ClubRunner!

News from District 5390
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
District 5390 leadership has been active, sharing information during the monthly District Leadership Zoom Meeting on December 11. 
  • The District Foundation Chair position will open beginning July 1 and DG-Elect Rick Powers is looking for someone who may be interested in serving in that important district role. A three-year term, the new Foundation Chair will serve 2023-2026. Contact Rick Powers if interested.
  • District Conference 2023 registration is now available on the district website at montanarotary.org. The conference takes place May 5-6 in Miles City, MT, and promises to be a great event, including a Kentucky Derby theme complete with horses.
  • The district is offering ROTARY RECONNECT, a training on ClubRunner from 9 am-noon on Saturday, January 21, handy for any Rotary member whether you have used ClubRunner in the past or never ever logged in. Our club Treasurer Kathy Schulte and Past President Victoria Emmons Bouzina both serve on the District Training Committee and are helping with the training. ClubRunner is a powerful tool for club organization and you need to learn its value!
  • PETS registration is now available on the district website. PETS offers required training for club presidents-elect (PE) and presidents-elect nominees (PEN). The conference for new club leaders will be held in Denver March 3-5.
  • Kudos to the Rotary Club of Bozeman on the success of its recent auction. The club raised $90,000 in only two hours!
  • District Grant Chair Mike Mayott announced that all grant funds for 2022-2023 have been allocated. The "soft deadline" to apply for grants for 2023-2024 is January 31, 2023.
  • Mike Mayott is also now chairing Youth Exchange for the district. He reported that outbound applications are being processed with interviews scheduled for the week of December 20. He said that inbound students for this current year are faring well, suggesting that these international exchange students should be invited to our clubs to speak. Clubs in Billings, Polson, Bozeman, and Livingston all hosted students this year.
A reminder that the Missoula club is in Area 2 and our Assistant Governor (AG) for Area 2 is Victoria Emmons Bouzina. If you have questions or interest in district service or happenings, feel free to contact the AG.

A New Year
 Greetings and welcome to another exciting year for the Rotary Club of Missoula! I will begin by giving a hearty THANK-YOU to all who have made last year such a good one for the club, noting especially the work of outgoing President Dean. We have had a good deal of energy in the club this past year as we moved to our new meeting location at the Country Club, contributed so much time and money to worthy causes around Missoula and beyond, and had great fun in the process.
 Looking toward this next year, there are several aspects of Rotary that we can emphasize. First, we want to make sure all our members are actively engaged in the work and fun of our club. Everyone has busy lives, but let’s work to make Rotary a fulfilling and rewarding part of those busy lives. Next, we want to take more of a leadership role in the excellent work being done by our Rotary Coalition in Guatemala. Third, I would like for us to consider developing a novel and effective fund-raising adventure for our club, one that has ongoing visibility in the Missoula community. Finally, lets continue to grow the social and fun side of the club with even more events beyond the meetings.
I look forward to working with you and I appreciate all the contributions to our club that each of you make. Imagine what Rotary can do!
 Thank You,  
 Royce Engstrom, Club President 2022-2023
