ATTENTION CLUB PRESIDENTS
Welcome to the brand new Rotary year! Have you input your goals in Rotary Club Central? Did you send along the RI and District invoices to your club treasurer to be paid? Have you shared your vision with your members? Thank you for your volunteer leadership!

CONFERENCE & RLI
Rotary Leadership Institute and our annual District Conference have both gone viral. Both are coming up quickly! Please share with your club to encourage participation.
RLI - Saturday, Sept 26th 9am-2pm - See video above and register at www.rlinea.org
District Conference - Oct 16-17, Five sessions to choose from each day, click on tab for Virtual Conference to register and select the sessions you are most interested in!

Email
This is the most powerful internal communications tool for Rotarians, so please plan to be diligent in checking and reading your emails. You will get emails from district leadership about upcoming events, with your monthly newsletter and to remind you of any important deadlines. You will also receive emails from Rotary International with important messages for all Rotarians. Whenever appropriate, be sure to share this information with your entire club!

District Calendar
Make sure you check the Events tab on this web site regularly to see what's coming up. The calendar will include district events, often with the option to register online, as well as other club events that you and your members might be interested in. Please feel free to share your club's events that are open for all to attend by completing an Events Submission form and submitting it to webmaster Lizzy Martin at emartin@advancemediany.com.

Make sure you are updating your club's progress in Rotary Club Central
We hope you set your club's goals in Rotary Club Central at rotary.org during your training to become president, but remember that there is more to it. You will need to go back in on a regular basis and update your progress towards meeting those goals. Make sure you check in every month or so to avoid getting behind. It will make the task much easier! 

Plan your track to get the Rotary Citation TODAY
Want to earn a big award for your club? Click here for this year's Rotary Citation (formerly known as the Presidential Citation). It is a list of goals set by the Rotary International President for each club, to determine what programs, projects and activities your club needs to do over the next 12 months in order to be aligned with the overall organizational goals and earn this special recognition from Rotary International.

Read your newsletter
The monthly District Newsletter is a succinct way to see what's new from the district, Rotary International and what your fellow clubs are up to. Sometimes there are important announcements and reminders that could make your role easier too! Find the latest editions under the News/Events tab on this page.
