Monthly Recap

Boy, I am not good at keeping this blog current. I have two years and eight months to get better - maybe longer if I delve into PDGland.

So what has gone on this past month?

On October 8th I attended the dinner for discussion leader for the Rotary Leadership Institute and the next day facilitated session for TRF and Membership.

After a week at my factory in Wisconsin I returned in time to spend some time at our club exhibit at Bay Fest, a fun, food, craft etc. annual program. Great fun.

On October 18th I picked up our Ambassadorial Scholar from Nigeria and took her to a club meeting. Nothing but fun. She is incredible.

After our club meeting and a new member induction on the 19th, the 20th found me at a meeting of our District Training Team.

A quick trip to California to visit my brother was followed by an appearance at a local club's fundraiser kick off gathering for sponsors and VIPs on October 28th.

Picked up my new car on the 29th. I only mention this because I wonder how many miles we will put on together during the 39 month lease. I cannot imagine.

Monday, November 1st brought me to Rotary's Camp Florida for a Governance Committee Meeting.

November 2nd found me at another District Training Team meeting. I have three major projects. I have to rewrite the AG tri level leadership criteria, complete with flow charts and scenarios. I also have to create Power Point Presentations for the Tri Level Leadership plan and Running effective club meetings for part of Pre PETS. I have three weeks to complete these tasks. Plus I have to do a TRF presentation at our Governor's club on November 12th. I am cool with TRF so it will not be an issue, still, I have to do some planning.

I know it looks like a lot of work, but I am enjoying every moment so far. My DGE has included me on every step, I have attended all her PETS meetings, I have taken an active role in her leadership training. This is so great because the transition from her year to mine will be totally seamless - something I will do with my successor as well.
