RID Michael Colasurdo, Sr. convened the annual Zones 31-32 Leadership and Zone Institute this past week, and it was a great success! Leadership chair Knut Johnsen, GETS chair Dan Spencer, and Zone chair Bernadette Jennings and their team went "above and beyond" in providing a Rotary "mountaintop experience" for all who attended.
The 2009-10 DGE's from Zones 31 and 32 met September 2-4 in Philadelphia to complete their mandated training on a variety of Rotary subjects prior to their attendance at the 2009 International Assembly in San Diego. 30 DGE's experienced "GETS" training sessions similar to those that will take place at the IA, ably led by PDG's Pam Akins and Don Lee, with Membership Presentations by RRIMC's Mark Kriebel and Dan Spencer, and Foundation Sessions with RRFC's Jack Best and Hogie Hansen.
The Zone 31-32 Institute followed, attended by many Rotary senior leaders, including RIP D. K. Lee, RIVP Monty Audenart, and RI Foundation Chair-Elect PRIP Glen Estess. All stressed the importance of MEMBERSHIP GROWTH to help "Make Dreams Real" this year and to secure Rotary's future. Membership breakouts were well attended, and many ideas were shared to further our Club and District membership goals.
Congratulations to our DGE's and our enthusiastic 2010-11 DGN's, who also received training for their first step on the road to becoming Governor. Membership growth and development will be in good hands with our incoming crop of DG's.

RI Presidential Membership Conference - A Great Success!
Hundreds of Rotarians gathered at the Greenbelt, Maryland Marriott on March 28-29 for the last Presidential Membership Conference of the 2008-2009 Rotary year.
Inspirational messages from President D. K. Lee and Director Mike Colasurdo were well received by all in attendance committed to "making membership dreams real" this year. Director Mike reminds all of us that we must keep our efforts focused on retention of our members through the end of the year!
President D. K. summed it up best, while stating his ambitious membership goal of 10% net growth was "...reaching for the stars. By setting our goals high, we might not reach the stars, but we will reach the moon".
Congratulations to Conference Chair Toni McAndrew and her committee for a job well done!
