President's Message for August

Dear readers,

Membership and New Club Development

The RI theme for August is Membership and New Club Development, and this is something we need to continue to work on because attracting new members is vital to our club and to Rotary clubs all around the world.

This raises the question “who are potential members?” I hope to assist our members in bringing new members to the club and therefore I am happy to announce that the Strategic Plan will be in place soon. The proposal and request for feedback will be send shortly. On August 17, Osbert will update us and we can discuss the plan. It will have guidelines for new membership candidates and in the meantime we continue to be open to new members.

New Club Development is also part of the Strategic Plan and I, as president, have suggested some changes is our meeting schedules. Please check our website and Facebook for more information on upcoming gatherings.

The True Value of Rotary Fellowship

Through The International Hosting and Traveling Fellowship, Dave, Wendy, Frank and Elly connected. Dave and Wendy spent some nights in Frank and Elly’s guest room. They had breakfast and supper together and visited the neighborhood . They enjoyed each other's company, shared Rotary stories. We learned about cultural differences. New friendships were built.

We visited Oudenbosch, a village with a history of how different religious institutions developed a poor part of the Netherlands into an important place of education, business opportunities, wealth and contemplation. The center of the village with the Basilisk, Saint Louis, Santa Anna and Arboretum are impressive monuments of the history of eight centuries.

ABOUT OUR E-CLUB

As e-club members, we participate fully in Rotary life, enjoying the camaraderie and fellowship with other members and visitors through our get-togethers online. We are a regular club except we meet online, so we can join in from anywhere worldwide. Our club is perfect for Rotarian globetrotters and those who live too far from a traditional club to attend regularly. Everyone is welcome!

Our members come from all over the world, giving us access to an international network of friends and fellow Rotarians! And we meet each other individually whenever the opportunity arises.

To communicate with each other we use the following:

Whatsapp to communicate with each other in group chats and telephonically.
ClubRunner, where we maintain our member profiles, and where our E-Club documents and our member contact list can be accessed.
Zoom, where we conduct our club meetings. It is very easy to use, we send you a link with a passcode to enter the meeting. You will need a device that has a camera to be able to get the best possible experience!

Backpacks & Schools Supplies Cabo San Lucas

Backpacks and School Supplies for Cabo San Lucas in Mexico.

In September 2021, at the beginning of the school year, we delivered 50 backpacks and school supplies to second-grade students of the Amelia Wilkes Ceseña Elementary School located in Cuatro De Marzo neighborhood in Cabo. This was led by Rotary Eclub of One World and the Principal and staff from the school. The project has been so successful that we decided to do it again in September 2023.

Is it too difficult to regularly attend an in-person meeting? Are you traveling often? Have a mobility issue?But want to continue being a Rotarian? Then our E-club may be the solution for you! If so, we would love to hear from you.

The easiest way to find out if this option is a good one is to email us to request a link to one of our Fellowship meetings so that we can get acquainted. If our club seems like a good fit, fill out an application to get the application started. We would love to hear from you!
