DGE April Update

Now that the Directory is well in hand, this past month has turned to preparing for our District Changeover.  Plans are now being finalised for this event and invites have gone out to all Rotarians in our District.  Our thanks to all of those involved in planning and preparing for this event.

April also saw the District Conference being held in Wanganui.  This was a very successful event with a great range of speakers.  We prepared a short presentation to advertise our joint District conference in Rotorua and this was delivered in Wanganui.  To date we have received a lot of positive support for this event.  The conference committees in both our Districts are working hard on finalising speakers and preparing for this event that is now just a year away.

At District conference we attended the District Advisory Committee meeting (made up of PDGs, DGN, DGE and DG.  This was followed by a District Board meeting.  A lot of thought is going on into the future of Rotary in our Region and I am sure we will see some significant and positive changes in the future.

Christine and I are now spending a couple of weeks in the UK and Rome on business and catching up with family.
