I have hobbies that I would like to share with Rotarians from around the world. Is there a place I could go to learn more? I also enjoy meeting people and building friendships.
Come to the Rotary District Assembly and attend the session that highlights Rotary Friendship Exchange and Rotary Fellowships. See you are the NAV Centre in Cornwall on April 22nd. Book now on the District website. There is no charge.
A reminder, in our Documents section is a copy of the district budget. I believe it was mentioned at our last online meeting but please review it so that your representative can vote at District Training Assembly. If you have any questions, District Treasurer Edmond Lanthier, Finance Committee Chair Ariane Carriere and DGE Martha Weaver are happy to answer them.
Depending on how things go next weekend, there may not be a bulletin until Sunday. The weekend is going to be pretty packed.
Rotary’s new vision statement: why should you care?
|

In June, Rotary's Board of Directors and Trustees approved a new vision statement for the organization: "Together, we see a world where people unite and take action to create lasting change — across the globe, in our communities, and in ourselves.”
Stephanie Urchick, chair of Rotary's Strategic Planning Committee, explains what went into arriving at that statement, and how you can help us chart a course for Rotary to thrive in the years ahead.

Take Action
National Volunteer Week (NVW) is a time to celebrate and thank Canada’s 12.7 million volunteers. Join Volunteer Canada and Investors Group April 15-21, 2018 to recognize the contributions of volunteers in our communities.
This year's theme is: “Celebrate the Value of Volunteering – building confidence, competence, connections and community”.
Volunteering is often seen as a selfless act; a person gives their time, skills, experience, and passion to help others, without expecting anything in return. And while volunteering is a form of service, many volunteers will tell you that “you get more than you give”. From opportunities to develop new skills, to finding deep and meaningful personal connections, the magic of volunteering is that it creates social and economic value for all.
Name for Our Bulletin
Do you have any ideas for a name for our bulletin? May clubs have a special name for their bulletins such as the Lakeshorian, the Courier, the Lookout. When we start a new year on July 1, it would be great to have a bulletin name.
