District Governor Joe Kovarik's Visit

Last Wednesday we had the honor of having special guest Rotary District Governor Joe Kovarik speak at our meeting. 

He discussed with us his "Mind Map" highlighting his M3 strategy - Members, Money, and Mindfulness.

We were reminded of the importance of recruiting new members.  The following steps: Locate 'em, Attract 'em, Enroll 'em, and Keep 'em will prove helpful in our membership recruitment campaign.

EREY - which stands for Every Rotarian Every Year is something we should continue to strive for.  Please remember the Rotary Foundation in your end of the year giving.

Mindfullness is the third "M".  Are you wearing your Rotary pin?  Be a walking talking billboard for Rotary. 

What do you say when someone asks you about Rotary?  What is your "elevator speech"?  Here is a great suggestion:

What do you do? Improve people's lives

Where do you do it? Locally and globally

How do you do it? Through Service.

Put it all together and we get a clear description of Rotary that sounds like...

 "In Rotary, we improve people's lives, locally and globally, through Service."

And lastly we were all challeged to "fall in love with Rotary again" and to make that commitment to service above self.
