24 District Governor Official Visit I would like two Flags of your club please! Once a year, the District Governor makes an official visit to each club in the district between July 1 and December 31. The Purpose of the visit: To allow the DG to communicate directly with all Rotarians in the district. To listen to club leadership and gain a better understanding of their club. To assist as requested and to answer questions about Rotary International and the club. To serve as a catalyst to help strengthen the programs of Rotary and the clubs. To meet the requirements of Rotary International. Process: Prior to the District Governor's Official Visit (during the month of July), Assistant Governors (AGs) will meet with the club officers to review the club's plans for the year. The AG will speak or with District Governor prior to her official visit to each club in that area. Additionally, the Assistant Governor for the area will work with the club leadership to confirm the meeting and with the Governor to confirm the accommodation arrangements. Reconfirm at least one month in advance of the District Governor visit to resolve any questions as to the information, format of the visit and special requirements. The District Governor is a guest of your club when making an official visit. The District Governor IS THE PROGRAM for the Official Club Visit. Please do not schedule another program to take place for their visit. Please allow 30 minutes for the Governor s Program. Most importantly, communicate any special plans you have to the Governor and AG so as to be sure it fits in with her other plans. Contact DG Isaac and AG well ahead of time to confirm times and places to avoid confusion. DG Isaac would like to meet informally with the board of each club to learn the vision of the board. The Governor's Introduction: Biographical information will be provided to the president and assistant governor in advance of the meeting. The highest ranking official in the room will handle the introduction of the District Governor. If a Past District Governor is a member of your club and they are in attendance, it is requested that they perform the introduction of the District Governor. Otherwise, the Assistant Governor assigned to that club, or the Club President will perform the introduction. If Abigail is attending with me, she would prefer to be seated with the club so that she can become better acquainted with the members of the club. It would be very helpful if all those in attendance wear a club badge or nametag so that we can associate names with faces. Encourage members to plan arrive early for the meeting and stay late in order to meet with the DG Isaac. It is customary that the club stand when the District Governor is introduced and when he has completed their presentation. Presentations of Paul Harris Fellowships, inductions of new members and other honors are especially appropriate during the District Governor's visit and the DG Isaac should be asked to participate in such events. Please do not include these activities as part of the 30 minutes 23

25 scheduled for the District Governor's presentation. It will not be an issue if the meeting needs to be a little longer than usual to accommodate the extra activities. If there is more than one club in your area, you may want to have a joint meeting. Clubs are requested to discuss any contemplated changes for the official visits or the format with the District Governor so questions can be resolved early. If it is your club's desire to host an event that coincides with the official visit, we would be delighted to attend if our schedule allows. As much advance notice as possible would be greatly appreciated. Gifts: Personal Gifts are discouraged. It is DG Isaac s wish that you use the funds for your club s projects or a donation can be made to the Rotary Foundation for Polio Plus to honor the Governor s visit. 24

34 Past Presidents Council This council will be two prongs approach to leadership development and new club extension that may increase our district membership. There are many standing committees needed every rotary year. Engaging past presidents will help to develop leadership that can fill the standing committees every rotary year. In addition, it is an opportunity to keep past presidents engaged in their respective clubs and their services in the district. The chair of this council may be a PDG or PAG and will be appointed by the DGE prior to his/her rotary year. This council will normally organize in different regions of the district for their meetings for easy access to the council members. These regional council meetings may be held twice a year at the time and place determined by the council chair in consultation with the DG. The Chair of this Council will also serve on the District Council. Schedule of events in 2018 September 2018 Sept pm Lenoir/Hickory Area Past Presidents Council Gathering.
