AROUND THE DISTRICT

My fellow District 5960 Rotarians - Welcome to August - one of the best months of the year. There is still a month of summer to enjoy but Fall is right around the corner. I don’t know what you have planned for August but this month I’ll be at 6 club meetings, two bike events, one 5K/10k fundraiser, one parade, and one “taste” of yummy party. The job as governor rocks. I really do enjoy being out in the district. The best part is learning about all the wonderful projects that are occurring. Every day you are out there making a positive difference in the world. I consider myself incredibly fortunate to be a part of such an organization. Please remember, that all of us at the district are here to serve you and your clubs. Drop us a line, give me a call. Let us know how we can make this year, your best year yet.

The passport program is a 5960 brainchild. That’s right, we are extra special. With the idea of breaking down silos and recognizing that we are all in this together, the passport program rewards each member that gets out and visits other clubs. This does not just include attending another club's meeting but also their service projects, their social events, fundraisers, and anything else you can imagine. You can pick up your physical passport at your club, at the club you are visiting, or at the district. Yes, if your club runs out, we can get you more. When you visit another club, you get them to stamp your passport. If they forgot their stamp at the event, have them initial your passport. We are all trustworthy individuals. At the end of the year, each member will receive one raffle ticket for each stamp/initial in the passport. The raffle is for a limited-edition print by Darren Jones, Jennifer Jones’ brother. Very cool.
