Summary of Last Week's Meeting:
District Governor John Donovan came for his "official visit." John is a member of the Leavenworth Rotary Club which was charted in 1916. He commended our club for being active in the community and continually giving to The Rotary Foundation. He also talked to us about ways to increase membership and encouraged the members of our club to get involved in District activities. DG John met with the Board of Directors following the regular meeting and talked more in depth about membership.
Rotary Leadership Institute (RLI) Lenexa Rotary member, Matt Janes recently attended the District's RLI (Rotary Leadership Institute). RLI is a grassroots leadership and development program whose goal is to strengthen Rotary clubs through quality leadership education. The RLI program is great training for “new” as well as “seasoned” Rotarians and can help with growing our clubs both with membership and meaningful service projects. RLI training involves three (3) five hour, all day courses. A variety of the topics include: the purpose and structure of Rotary, team building, attracting and retaining members, service projects, effective leadership strategies, how to improve your Rotary experience, international service and motivational techniques. RLI is open to any Rotarian who is interested in learning more about our amazing organization. In addition to networking and exchanging ideas with other Rotarians, attending will enhance your knowledge of all facets of Rotary and how it works. The first of the three sessions of the next RLI class will be offered on Saturday, August 8th at Washburn University at the F/M/L Seminar.
